The Marquise Bridal Set She'll Be Getting

P: 2/8/2006 8:36:07 PM
Cohiba Rough Rock Total Posts: 28 Last Post: 4/3/2006 Member Since: 11/30/2005	Finally, my quest to find a gorgeous Marquise center stone is over. When I originally came to this site, you guys and gals saved me. I was about to drop 2k on a center stone that was way too shallow and glassy looking. After some great tips, education and research, Mark Turnowski help me acquire this diamond. I had already acquired the bridal set, but I was taking my time with the center stone. Thanks to everyone's input, I got the best diamond I could acquire for the woman that means everything to me. I will propose to her this weekend at a Hawaiian Luau in Waikiki (see my thread http://www.pricescope.com/idealbb/view.asp?topicID=39842&pageNo=1&num=30 ). Here's the specs on the diamond and also some pics. Sorry for the picture quality, but I don't have a macro feature on my camera. Weight 0.80 Report GIA Shape Maqruise Brilliant Color E Clarity SI1 Measurements 9.60x4.83x3.10 Depth % 64.2 Table % 57 Fluorescence None Polish Very Good Symmetry Very Good There's such little bowtie present, it's not even noticeable. The bridal set has 9 round stones that are 1.01 tcw

Very sparkly, clearly well cut - not a hint of a bowtie in the pics. And that wedding set is going to bling her socks off. Good luck at your very romantic proposal!!!!

Small Ideal Rock Total Posts: 957 Last Post: 4/18/2008 Member Since: 2/3/2006	Beautiful set and diamond! Those specs are similar to my marquise and I was just in the market for a new setting. She's going to love it. I chose round and baguette diamonds this time to surround my center. It looks stunning!

Cohiba Rough Rock Total Posts: 28 Last Post: 4/3/2006 Member Since: 11/30/2005	Thanks for all the compliments. It was a lot of work, but well worth it. When I picked out the setting I liked its simplicity and the potential blingage effect it would create with just the right center stone. Who says fancy cuts can't be all that brilliant?

We work together and many clients comment on the ring. One even told her that she was blinding them while we were sitting out in the sunlight. LOL!
