I just couldn't hold back any more. I've had it for a couple of weeks but I was afraid you all would think I was crazy. It was custom made and I love it! This is the first time I've had something custom made and I have to thank all of you PSers for swaying me in that direction. So much so that I already have another piece in for a "make over"! Now to the stats: Radiant 5.10 ct G SI1 Setting 1.93 ctw trillions - 1.00 ctw F/VS1 72 small diamonds in band Total diamond weight for the ring is 7.03 If anyone remembers, the previous ring had 1 ct trillions on each side that I thought were a little too much so I scaled back. And I'm so glad I did. Now I think the radiant stands out a little more. I hope you all like it. And again THANK YOU to all of you for making me think beyond manufactured settings! I kinda went crazy taking pictures so here they are one at a time since I cannot figure out how to attach more than one at a time!

Thanks blingdiva! BTW, I decided not to get any diamonds on the gallery in case I wanted to wear it with my eternity ring.

I was going to a picture with the eternity band but realized that I hadn't resized it yet! so here it is. Thank you miranda, flingle and woobug! I wear it on both hands. I like to change things up every few days. You know, make my friends think I got something new!!!! Ok, this time I did but that's not always the case!!!

I'm sorry for leaving it in the jewelry box shay! I was just a little 'dismayed' with it because of how it looked like a mass of diamonds and I particularly don't like that look. Resetting it has been on my mind for a while and I soooo wanted to go with Leon but my DH wasn't really wild about the idea of doing this so far away nor did he want to take the chance of a 'mail mishap'. So at Christmas time, he bought me a beautiful ring that was custom made and after talking with my jeweler, we decided to use him to make me something new. I am very impressed with the work that he does. I wish I could tell you who he is but unfortunately my jeweler is keeping him "under wraps" for now. I think he thinks I'll go directly to him! I haven't yet tried to beat it out of him, although I've asked, but I'm okay with it because HE's the one I will go to if anything happens to any of my pieces. It kind of works out better for me but I would love to know who he is so that I can at least thank him for all of the lovely work he has done. And thanks for welcoming me into the nuthouse!

When I took the other pictures I shoved in a few more rings to the mix! Quick question....how are my pictures with the sunlight behind my hand? I just haven't been happy with the photos I take and I thought they turned out kinda cool.

didiamond it's so GORGEOUS!!! I love all your collection!
 Nothing is more sacred as the bond between horse and rider...no other creature can ever become so emotionally close to a human as a horse.

Thanks kittycatsmac! Good luck with your RHR! That's going to be a killer when it's done. I'm also working with my square EC but I decided to go with step cut trapezoids in a Christopherdesigns style setting. Here is the link. http://www.christopherdesigns.com/cd/5_couture_designs/frames/r28-400pvs.htm (I hope that works) Check it out and see what you think.

Oh, Didiamond!!!!! It's just gorgeous!!!!! You're so right. I went back to see a pic of the radiant in it's original setting, and this does showcase the stone so much better. Well Done!! I was going to comment on the light behind the hand pix, even before you asked. I think they look great! I'm SO GLAD you decided to come out of the "bling closet"...don't go back! We just love to see what you've been up to, and to enjoy your goodies. Besides, there is no such thing as 'crazy' on PS....or so I keep telling myself... I just looked at your last picture and fell in love with your yellow heart all over again...(swoon) More! More! More! widget

Ooooooh...I love that Christopherdesign ring...especially the melee "trim" on the wider band...that will be fabulous. I wish they had a profile shot of that mounting...I'm having trouble imagining the small stones on the outside of the EC... Can't wait to see that baby!!  widget

didiamond Ideal Rock Total Posts: 589 Last Post: 11/23/2009 Member Since: 7/30/2004 |
Thanks marvel! There's my widget! I wondered how long before you found me out!!! I'm sorry I was 'in the closet'....you know how I feel about that. I'm just always doing something and I feel like I'm never satisfied. And YES, I know, I NEVER WILL BE!!!!!! But the first step is admitting your problem so I admit it! I'm obsessed!!!! I'm so glad you like it. I was going to post a before picture but for whatever reason I never took a picture with just the radiant and I didn't want to post the hand shot with the three rings since I don't even have the pear anymore. Oh well. I'm still going through some of the other shots I have but I don't want to put up ugly pics either. I'll keep looking and maybe I'll step away from my OCD status and say it's okay if they see THAT one! hehehe Seriously, I do have more but I just don't think they are all that great. I forgot to make sure that website worked. I'm so glad it did. But unfortunately widget, I'm not going with all of the little melee. Because I will be wearing it on a daily basis I was worried that I might lose some so I opted not to get them. I agree though there is no sideview of that ring on the site. How unfortunate. I'm praying that it comes out as I hope. sevens, thank you so much. I would love to do an update shot since so much has changed. Can we wait until my next project is back? It should only be a few more weeks.
