I'll see if I can try to get some shots with the loupe showing the inclusion. I must be crazy...I can't stop looking at the diamond through the loupe! I think I am fascinated by the inclusion. It looks like a black dot with a microscopic diamond in the middle of the black dot. I must be hallucinating on my pain meds...LOL! Somebody take the loupe away from me.

I love the pictures of the ring, they really show the setting very well. It's just beautiful and reminds me of a tulip a little bit!!

Thanks for the compliments, guys! I am terrible at taking pictures with a loupe (I think I don't have enough hands to do it...lol). But I got one with the light-viewer thingy that shows the two major inclusions pretty well. The table inclusion is the one at the base of the 10 o'clock arrow. That's the one I can see if I look really hard at less than 6 inches. The other inclusion is around 5 o'clock near the tip of the arrow. To be honest, I can't see that one even with my loupe! I'll have to keep looking for it. It will be sort of a quest until I found it. Maybe it's just my mood today, but inclusions can be kind of fun in a weird sort of way. It's kind of like a looking into a bit of amber and trying to find the bugs...

Oooh...I just got to thinking. The dot in the point of the 5 o'clock arrow might be a reflection of the table inclusion! Too cool, like a fun house mirror...

Enjoy it. Very unusual setting. Looks like the prongs are plat and the rest of the setting is yellow gold. Beautiful.

Beautiful Suzi!! I agree with you totally about the inclusions being strangely endearing. I have an SI2 with two parallel feathers at 2 o'clock position. I have to look really hard, close, and from the girdle angle to see them, but they're kind of like a birthmark on a baby, uniquely beautiful and totally mine! I also love to see your setting. I've been admiring the Laureato's for a long time, both your rounded yellow gold, and the wide platinum one. Pictures on the website are beautiful, but you never know if it's going to look that good in reality. It really exceeds expectations. Again, congratulations on a beautiful ring!

Just beautiful - I really like the arrows pic where you can see the inclusion(s). How cool is that! An easy way to tell your stone apart from any other. I also love the setting - not until the WF side shots did I see the elegant curving of the shank toward the head...it's gorgeous! Congrats!

suziQ Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,173 Last Post: 10/21/2005 Member Since: 1/17/2005 |
Thanks, everyone. WF takes very good pictures...much better than I do. I love this setting. I had wanted something that was simple and dainty, yet in a way substantial. This setting has everything I was looking for. I love the prongs, especially. They aren't just six "things" holding down the stone. They have a nice curvature and are grooved, so they don't look plain, yet they are very simple at the same time. I also love the combination of yellow gold and platinum. I've had diamonds set in yellow gold with white gold prongs before, but I think that the platinum is more mirror-like somehow, and just enhances the stone more than white gold prongs. Maybe it's just in my head, who knows...lol. From other platinum jewelry I've had over the years, I think platinum just has a more liquid or fluid look than white gold, which to me can tend to look "metalic". But I LOVE yellow gold. To me it has a richness and a mellowness that contrasts really very beautifully with the spark of diamonds. Anyway, that's my take on the combination. I like pretty much all metals with diamonds when it comes down to it. The same diamond can look completely different in various metals and different settings.

Date: 5/18/2005 10:04:20 PM Thanks, Maxine. Same setting, bigger stone. I love this setting too! I was worried for a bit that the bigger stone wouldn't fit in the same ring, but they made some adjustments (new head? I don't know what?) But it fits and looks great.

Suzi, beautiful stone. So glad you are not a clarity snob anymore. SIs are a great value. Now how about a picture with your sax? The gold should match wonderfully.
