Well, my boyfriend (fiance!) told me that the ring would MOST LIKELY be here by next Thursday and I was bummed. But, he received it Friday and told me we needed to make a stop for his job on the way to my family's cabin on Friday night. We stopped at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco and he proposed under one of the arches under the main dome! It was wonderful. He had gorgeous flowers and a card waiting for me in the car. It was a really fun night and he surprised me even though we've already set a date and had already started planning the wedding. He still managed to make it quite special. Here are some ring pics!!!! STats: 1.24 carat, G color, VVS1 clarity. He did a spectacular job. The setting is the Vatche half pave. Ring size is 5.5

Oh, this is the first time I've seen the Vatch half pave in a "real" ring. It's stunning! I adore the side view.

Thanks for fixing my picture Ana! I haven't gotten to learning the "fixing" part of digital photography. What you did looks much better! Thanks all for the best wishes!

Your ring is superb! And I agree with q--from the side it reminds me of a medieval globlet! Awesome!

Jennifer - I think that's why the setting appealed to me so much - the medieval goblet/crown-like look. Plus, it's not too high-set off my finger which is good for a klutz like me! Thanks all for your nice comments. Fiance thought it was funny that I had the need to post pictures but he was pleased by all the feedback of course... ![]() Dana

It posted a bit too big - I am not good with all the technical stuff. I don't know what camera he has but I can find out!
