Ariel at IceStore (CA) has the nicest colored diamond inventory I have come across in the U.S.  He was competent in his knowledge, willing to send to any appraiser of my choosing, and his return policy was reassuring. He emailed me some much needed education on colored diamonds, answered my questions on the phone, and there was no pressure on his part. I actually talked myself out of this idea more than once.  In the end, the heart always wins out.
 
This is a GIA natural fancy pink  .43 cushion modified brilliant in platinum (size 2.5)   
There is a small bezel set diamond beneath the pink which made for a very nice & unexpected touch.
 
The ring design I had made is fairly simple, as compared to the other amazing designs at IceStore.   However this is exactly what I was seeking for her pinky finger. 
 
I p-think she will love it. 
 
Happy Holidays to all !  Hope Santa finds you !

Beautiful ring! 
What type of setting is that for the pink stone? Channel, half bezel?  That is exactly what I want; it looks like a tension set, but more secure.

I believe it is tension by what I can see...Although I'm not 100% sure with my setting techniques and terminology to be accurate.  I just gave IceStore a few different pics of my ideas and that is what we came up with.

Beautiful.  Very different.  I'd love to know the specs on the pink diamond and the width of the ring.  Also, please post a hand shot.  I can't wait to see it on her pinky.  I know she'll LOVE it.


Great job...Very thoughtful...Truly an original looking ring.

Ivy,

0.43
GIA Cushion Modified Brilliant
Natural Fancy Pink
Even Distribution
VS Clarity
4.66x4.63x2.56

The band is not any wider than the diamond really.  Very dainty. 

Most pinks I ran across were horribly included.  Most of the stuff I viewed was really bad to the naked eye.  Luckily, all of Icestores colored diamonds were of good clarity, proper paperwork, and an owner that was nice and knew his business.    

I appreciate your words and take care.

Wow! Very cool. We don't get to see pinks very often. I really like the setting, too.

Absolutely gorgeous!

I love pink diamonds, and it's my dream to own one someday myself! The setting is perfect for the stone, and I love the surprise diamond underneath. The shape and color of the pink are exactly what I would love to have.

Please post some pics on her hand!!

Beautiful, beautiful ring!!!!

Bagpuss ! Hang on tight & clued in.... LOL

probably more like a down payment on a future screw-up I'm bound to make.  They seem to follow me around!  It's more difficult for her to give me the finger when something I bought her is on it.     

honestly, she is very deserving of it all ,and will love it.  
Have a great Christmas!
