WOW!!  It's like night and day.  The prongs look more "in-keeping" with the ring itself...much more artfully done!  Very nice!

Yes, your ring looks wonderful now.  Glad you were able to easily remedy this situation.

Again I think the first picture got deleted.  WHY does that keep happening???

The ring looks awesome.   I agree with the others, now we can see that stone better.

Yes, the first picture did get deleted, i think it's caused when someone
is uploading a picture, and the other picture just go loaded,
it seems to wipe out the first one.   I uploaded the first picture, then
the 2nd after doing reply, and first one disappeared so i had to add it
again.

The first picture is gone again. 

But I love the new prongs.  From what I remember, they look much better!

This keeps happening with most of the threads I've noticed.
I think I'll pm Leonid about it.  Maybe he's not aware.  (we're missing out on alot of much needed eye candy here- It's just vanishing- not good.)

Carolyn, I think your ring looks even more beautiful! Trimming the prongs is what it needed. The diamond is now the centerpiece, not the prongs. They did a great job, Simple and painless!

Did they just shave them down?  How long did the process take?

I thank you all again for the nice compliments. It's true, it's better and this web site always seems to be correct.
I was talking with others on sizing these eternity, it is my belief you really have to try them on over and over and try and find same one that fits before purchasing, or something similiar. Because the eternity are not sizable, at least the Tacori one I got is not. So, it was really important.

Your diamond really stands out now.  I'm so happy for you! Mary

I was able to get it done quickly, because i called the jeweler that i ordered it from and he agreed
it would look better if the prongs were done more artisically to go with the style.  I blew it originally by adding my two cents before he did the first setting.  I should have shut up and just let him do what he thought best.  He said he just did it to the way I asked, but he obviously misunderstood me.  So, when i called, he said come over, give me 3 hours and I will make it look perfect how I was originally going to do it before you spoke.
I drove over, shopped for 3 hours, and he had it done.  This particular jeweler is the nicest I have ever been to, believe me if they put up with me, then they are great. I changed my mind 3 times, even ordered the Jeff Cooper and he let me cancel that special order to get this Tacori, that to me is a great jeweler.  Plus they let me try on rings for hours, they have tons of designer rings, the best, and I really felt I made the right choice.  If anyone wants to know who this jeweler is, then PM me and I will let you know.

It just looks perfect now!  I'm glad you got this resolved so quickly, the new prongs make your center stone look like it should - much bigger.  I also  like how he kept the "grove" of the U prongs intact.

Congrats - and once again - your ring is beautiful!

Thanks Laney, I love it too.
I just wore it to the mall and it is beautiful, nothing more that I want now.
The size is perfect too.
I take it off before going to bed, because my finger does swell slightly,
then about 90 a.m. im ready to wear it again.
It's fine doing it that way, i would rather do that then have to size according
to my ring swelling.
I hope the other girl that is trying to find the right size works it out.
I agree with going with the 6, because these eternity rings are so hard to size up.
Also, she could tell them 6 TIGHT, I told my jewelery 6 1/4 TIGHT and it is perfect.
if I wouldn't have said TIGHT, then they do slightly just do above the 1/4 and not infront
of the 1/4.  I know it sounds confusing , but just that little difference is important.

I can't see the original (pic seems to be missing?), but I just have to say your rings are gorgeous! Great style/setting and incredible rock!
