Hi everyone,
Well, I picked up the ring today. I love it!!!
As you know, I didn't know what I wanted, but I knew that I loved the claw prongs, I love the cathedral shank of the Royal Crown and I loved the original Cartier solitaire ring. And I wanted everything to look very delicate and dainty.
So, with these things in mind, I went to Leon's office and he basically drew a picture of what I wanted.
The ring came out thinner than what I originally planned, but I think it looks better that way.

Thanks bht,
The whole process took about 5 weeks. I dropped the diamond off on October 22nd, and picked it up today, November 26th. He was actually done on Monday, but I had to work, so I picked it up today.
I wish he had taken some pictures for me. Mine are not that great and don't show how nice it really is.
Since I am undecided on pave, he said I could always set diamonds in the shank and bezel later on. He did say that with my anniversary band he thought I should keep it plain.

wow! what a gorgeous ring..the combo is fantastic! Great job..
i like the wedding band as well..it seems to fit very nicely with the ering...may i ask where you got it? and how large the stones are? I am looking for an wedding band to fit nicely with the RC setting..am thinking of having it made. yours seems to sit so well with the ering..and low so as not to hit the prongs of the center stone..thanks!!!

Thanks so much for the nice replies
No one understands how I feel more than you guys, me thinks!!!
Fuffi, I actually took the pictures outside, sitting on my stairs. I was hoping to do it without any of my neighbors looking, but one of them came outside, so I made believe I was taking pictures of my stairs, then my house, then the car....... You get it.
Then she finally went inside and someone else came outside, so I gave up hope and went back inside!!!
I find that I take better pics when it is really sunny and when I take the picture from afar and then just crop it. Hopefully it will be sunny again soon.
Bling, I guess you had asked me about the ring before? I can't remember. By the way, I saw your profile in the Who's who, you are very pretty!!!

ooooh Kayla I adore those little claw prongs!! I like the clean lines of the ring. I am so happy that things worked out well with the whole process....sometimes custom can be a bit tedious. Looks great with your band too! Pave in the future..hmm..sounds good.

Hey Kayla,

I emailed asking about your setting because I just loooove the prongs. I should have guessed it was a LM. I'm so glad to see so many views of it, and your Tiffany band is gorgeous. It's simply eye candy staring at your settings.

Hmmmmm.

Kayla,

What a beautiful ring! I love the claw prongs and the cathedral shank. Does it spin on your finger?

HI,
Thanks for all the nice replies. I went away for Thanksgiving and got back on Saturday afternoon, then I had to work Sat. and Sun. night, so I didn't get a chance to respond to all the replies.
I really love the ring and am pleased with how it came out. I will try to take more pictures when I get a chance!!
Thanks again!!!

HI lop,
The ring doesn't spin on my finger, but I usually wear a plastice ring huggie on the bottom. I have a large knuckle, so I always have to get my rings a little bit bigger to account for the knuckle. Once it's over my knuckle, it's a little bit loose.
