Hello All!  I took my ring in a month ago to have it "reworked" by a jeweler in town.  I got it back today and I am in shock by how wonderful it is.  I was nervous that they wouldn't be able to incorporate everything I wanted, but they did!  Here are the "specs" as I know them,

Center stone is a Round Brilliant 1.5 carats G color and SI2 in clarity.  The two side stones are half moons weighing .24 carats tw, they are G in color and VS1 in clarity.  The pave around the stones are G in color and VS1 in clarity weighing .43 carats total. 

The engraving was hand done and I think they did a fabulous job.  All in all, I am pleased as punch!  I am including five shots of the ring.  I finally learned how to use the macro function of my camera!

What a beautiful, painstakingly crafted ring!  Not only are the center stone and sides gorgeous, but everything about that setting is divine!  The gallery, the engraving, the small details, the underside...just breathtaking!!!

That is an absolute work of art.  The engraving is stunning.  I hope you never change that ring because your great grand daughter would really miss having that left to her.

Thank you all for the compliments!  I can't stop staring at it.  It's funny that it is actually my ring.  I feel so lucky to have such a wonderful jeweler.  The jeweler said that he normally has a hand in all the rings he designs but he sent mine out to a gentleman that engraves rings for Tacori.  I wasn't specific on the engraving style, I just said no regarding specific designs.  I left them with creative control and I am really pleased with what they did.  To answer a few questions...

Ries: it is my engagement ring.
  I have a channel set wedding ring that I will keep because that is what we said our vows with.  It doesn't go with my new ring so I am working on having a band made to fit the contours as well as have it engraved to match the ring.  I was worried about having something on the side that would eventually rub the engraving and make it dull. 

BrightSpot:  I LOVE the euro shank.  I am pretty hard on my hands so when I had a plain thick band it would constantly flatten out on the bottom.  My best friend has a euro shank and I decided to try it out.  My ring hasn't slid around at all.  It is extremely comfortable and I'm very glad I made the choice to have it. 

DiamondLil: I originally told the jeweler that an underside design wasn't necessary.  I am so glad they used their own discretion on that and designed what I look at as a nice cross underneath. 

Lumpkin:  I absolutely plan on passing this ring down to my children.  I wanted an antique look that was unique and I think that over time it will still carry that unique/antique quality. 

Thanks again for all of the comments!
