Good Evening!

I have been a long time lurker and after being a LIW, I'm happy to announce that I'm finally engaged! This website has been a wealth of knowledge for me and certainly made selecting a diamond and a setting more fun and easy! I've had the chance to view everyone's gorgeous rings on this site and I'm THRILLED to finally have the chance to post mine! .

I'm not very good at taking pics, but I did the best I could so you can get the idea.

Here are the stats:

Center Stone: 1.39 CT
Mea: 7.22-7.26x4.38mm
Depth: 60.5%
Table: 59%
Girdle: THN-MED, Faceted
Polish: Very Good
Sym: Very Good
Fluor: None
Clarity: SI1
Color: H
Fluor: None

Thank you diamondfan! I live in NYC so, we purchased both the diamond and the setting at Michael C. Fina. I personally was looking for larger stone without the halo, but my FI loved how sleek and modern this design was (plus, it reminds me of him everytime I look at it ).

I found this link from Jim_S which was posted last spring. He took excellent pictures of the ring (far better than I could've done). Is shows the detail of the ring:

Me too! This setting was really unique compared the other halos we tried on. It really does look big and everyone always asks me if it's 2cts!

Congrats blushingbride, i think i can re-size #5 and # 6 better (they are less blurry ones) if you still have the originals from camera.

Thanks everyone!!!   What I love the most about it is that it incorporates what I always wanted in a ring (the round brilliant stone with a diamond pave band) and yet my FI picked out the setting so, it has part of him in it too! 

KBerly, I just saw your previous posts and your ring is gorgeous too!  I'm a traditional person and I love how elegant and how classic the solitaire looks!

It looks beautiful, but I so wish we could see the details better.  I'm sure it's stunning though!  It looks like a nice size and very sparkely on your hand.  Congratulations.
