I gotta give thanks to all who post on here and for whiteflash for all their help. .54 carat G color SI1, eye clean ACA, hearts and arrows 18k white gold Legato Sleek Line I originally had purchased a .574ct., I color stone that was chipped during the setting process. Whiteflash handled the situation with customer service in mind, the notified me right away and recommended my current stone. The new stone was a bit smaller carat wise but similar in dimensions, 2 grades better in color, and few hundred dollars more, so I am not complaining. Ring should be shipping hopefully tomorrow, will get more pics when it arrives.

She isn't picky at all so she would have been excited with something from the mall jewelry store, but luckily I found this website and got the information to make a much better purchase.

Simply gorgeous, she'll love it! And good luck! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "It is also important for the State to inculcate in its subjects an aversion to any 'conspiracy theory of history' for a search for 'conspiracies' means a search for motives and an attribution of responsibility for historical misdeeds." -Murray N. Rothbard, in The Anatomy of the State John Swinton [1829-1901] Chief Editorial Writer of the New York Times (Considered "the Dean of his Profession" by his peers), when asked to toast an 'Independent Press' in a gathering at the National Press Club, circa 1880 "There is no such thing in America as an independent press unless it is in the country towns. You know it, and I know it. There is not one of you who dare express an honest opinion. If you express it you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid... for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for doing similar things.... The business of the New York journalist is to distort the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of Mammon, and sell his country and race for his daily bread, or for what is about the same thing, his salary. You know this, and I know it and what foolery to be toasting an 'independent press.' We are tools, and the vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are jumping-jacks. They pull the strings and we dance. Our time, our talents, our lives, our possibilities, all are the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."

HappyAnniversary Cut Rock Total Posts: 390 Last Post: 11/20/2009 Member Since: 4/1/2007	Wow--so diamonds really Can get chipped in setting! I thought that was something people got a little too hyper over cos I never read of it happening. What a good thing you got it done at WF and they took care of it. Now--back to the ring: ITS GORGEOUS!!!! You picked a beautiful ring! Congratulations on the engagement.

phoenixgirl Ideal Rock Total Posts: 2,497 Last Post: 11/24/2009 Member Since: 3/20/2003	It's beautiful! And I love just thinking that somewhere out there is a lucky girl who is going to get a beautiful ring! And so many proposals these days aren't complete surprises, so I am swooning at the thought of how romantic it will be! What a shame that your original stone was damaged, but I am happy for you that it all worked out well and that White Flash turned it into nothing more than a slight delay for you.

You'll have to take the stone for a spin around the mall sometime. I'm sure you'll see a big difference in what's out there and what you have. Good job!

lost1700 Rough Rock Total Posts: 12 Last Post: 8/13/2007 Member Since: 5/24/2007	Thanks for all the great words! The ring ships today and I will pick up tomorrow. My gf and I will have been together for four years on Aug. 16, so I am thinking about asking her then. I will def. post some hand shots once she has it, but I might need some tips on how you all take such crystal clear photos up close.

Stone Hunter Ideal Rock Total Posts: 3,785 Last Post: 11/24/2009 Member Since: 5/12/2006	Personally I take about 4,000 photos and get 2 or 3 really good ones. If you have macro mode (the flower icon) on your camera use that. Then turn off the flash and keep your hands really steady. Each camera is different. My auto focus doesn't work if I turn off the flash, hopefully your's will! Since the diamond just shoots the light from the flash back at the camera and keeps you from getting a good look at the stone itself. HTH
