silent1 Rough Rock Total Posts: 3 Last Post: 5/9/2006 Member Since: 5/9/2006	Hello everyone!! As the title states I've been a long time lurker on the forums trying to learn all that I could. The amount of information to pour over is definately daunting to someone like me. After several months I have finally purchased a diamond that I hope my gf will love. I truly hope that I got a "good" stone as I would love it to bring a smile to my lady's face. I've tried to attach the GIA cert but for some reason it was a no go so here is the link It's a GIA Excellent cut, 0.91ct, VS2, E I'm sure I'll be here even more as I try to narrow down the setting! Although I should be studying for my licensing exam right now so off I go... until then...

I've been studying for 1.5 months so hopefully I'm about ready for this Saturday. I'm sooooooooooooo nervous for it. As for the setting my choices are between this one and this other one. Maybe someone else could suggest a place or similar style?? Nothing like browsing the forums to procrastinate!!! -Tony

There will be several vendors who carry those styles, so when you have time, you can probably see some on this site. Good luck on your exam! ~~~ When in doubt...don't.~~~

Lorelei Ideal Rock Total Posts: 34,212 Last Post: 11/22/2009 Member Since: 4/30/2005	Welcome to PS Looks like a nice choice, congrats! 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. When a horse dies, the memory lives on because an enormous part of his owner's heart, soul, very existence dies also...but that can never be laid to rest, it is not meant to be... - Stephanie M Thorn

Gypsy Ideal Rock Total Posts: 14,306 Last Post: 11/20/2009 Member Since: 8/9/2005	It depends on your lady. Some people, myself included, love them. Others love sleek modern looks, and still others prefer art-deco-ish sleek. I just thought the price was nice compared to what a leon mage would run you. So I thought I'd offer it. Don't know how much that WF costs. Date: 5/9/2006 9:32:26 PM Author: silent1 There are some very gorgeous designs there Gypsy. I never considered 'vintage' type settings before but maybe I should be.
