Hi guys!! Hope you don't mind me sharing some more pictures with you. Some of you may remember that I was having pave ering and matching wedding band custom made from my local jewelers, Toppers Jewelers in Burlingame. As much as I adore Leon's work, I decided I wanted to work with someone locally so I could work with them in person. I am really happy that I've decided to do pave and it is certainly a very different look from my old vatche royal crown ering and 8 stone wedding band.
Bill and Val of Toppers were great to work as always and they were very patient with me as I went over all the details. Alas, I still don't have Leon's awesome claw prongs and of course doesn't come close to Reena's, but i think the set is gorgeous..hope you all agree! My only wish now is that Kayla will get your settting back and it be perfectly beautiful soon....we kind of went through this setting change together..and I want to thank her for her advice and help =) I really hope everything will work out asap! hugs!!

the head is a bit higher than my royal crown to make the band sit flush against it but it looks stunning

Hi sara,
It came out gorgeous!!!!  And exactly like how you wanted it!!!!
I am so happy that you got what you wanted.  I see what you mean about wanting a slightly larger pave than the Ritani ring.  That diamond is popping out.
Remember, no upgrade for a while!!!!
Those arrows are so awesome too. 
By the way, what camera are you using?

Hi Madarski,
thanks for your compliments! the diamond is a 2.03 G, SI1 from Superbert cert. The pave band has 2 pointers (0.02 melees) in the band and it's approximatley 2.3-2.4 in width (the wedding band is every so slightly thinner). The pave on the basket are pretty small, my guess is he used 1 pointers for those..total of 12 all around. There are 9 diamonds on each side of the engagement ring but I may get 2 extra put on each side. My jeweler made carvings on the side of the band...I've heard it being called fishtail pave. I think that's about it....oh yeah, welcome to PS!

Wow Slammie!  Those are gorgeous!  I wish I'd found Toppers when I lived up there.  They did a beautiful job, and they look perfect on your hand. Enjoy them!

omg  omg  OMG!!!!!!

You have almost exactly what I envisioned in my head for my ring.  I've never seen it...just my own fantasies...but here it is, sitting on your hand and it is G*O*R*G*E*O*U*S!!!!!!!!!!

Toppers did a GREAT job...i LOVE it!  LOVE it.

Do you mind if I pm you for more specifics?  Such as cost, how you managed to convey what you want, how dealing with toppers was, etc....? 

So beautiful!

AAAAAHH! I'm excited cuz this means my ring is feasible (eventhough I had jewelers tell me no ).
