I've been wanting these for so long from Tiffany but couldn't justify their price.  I orginally wanted teeny tiny ones but then thought over time I'd like something a little bit bigger.  I went to Tif's last week and tried on different sizes to see what would look best.  I liked the .42 ctw studs and the .70 ctw but I thought something in between would be perfect.  So I emailed WF and got a quote.

I purchased these: ACA .315 and ACA .313 both are J VS1  and they are going to be set in 18k white gold hand made bezels

I've seen so many great WF ACA J's on here so I hope I love them.  I have an H Asscher from GOG and I hardly ever see the warmth.  And especially w/ bezel settings when am I ever going to see the warmth, right? 

Here's the link to the comparision of both  https://www.whiteflash.com/diamonds/Compare_Diamonds.aspx?idnos=636664,636666

I've been working w/ Lesley at Whiteflash all week on this and she's been so great and so fast with email responses !  I'm so happy I found Pricescope, I've now purchased from 3 of their recommended vendors and I've been so happy with each.

They should be arriving a week from Tuesday, sorry to be a tease w/ no pics but I'm just soooooooooo excited!!!  And I can't wait to have them for our wedding trip/honeymoon in Hawaii!

They have arrived!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And I them!!!!

They came in last week (I know, shame on me for not posting pics sooner) and I couldn't be more thrilled with them.  I picked them up first thing in the morning and went straight to my office so I could open them up.  Fist thing - it took me so long to open the boxes! LOL   WF does a great job packaging them, they were in 2 boxes and a pouch!

So after inspection I was getting ready to send off the paperwork to Jewelers Mutual to add them as well as my FI's new w-ring from Facets to our current policy.  Well I was double checking everything and noticed that one of the AGS reports showed the .313 as a K color! I was super surprised.  Well, I went back and it turns out that WF's website showed both stones as J's but if you click on the actual AGS reports online, sure enough it was a K.  So I emailed Lesley right away, and literaly like 5 minutes later I got a call from her.

She explained the whole thing - there were a bunch of similar size AGS stones sent off to the apprasier and when they came back that one accidently was listed as a J with all of the others.  So she said I can either 1. ship them back at WF's expense and have them switch it to another J stone w/ similar specs or 2. get a credit for the difference (since I paid for a J but should have paid for a K).

I told her I'd think about it for a day or two and look at the earrings in lots of different lighting to see if I could see a difference.  Well, I really can't see anything. so I decided to keep them as is.  They both have some warmth but it's so not noticeable. Especially since they are set in bezels, face up, they are all white baby! 

I guess you could call this a slight hiccup, but it really wasn't a big deal to me, and I'm super happy with my bezels.  I really really love them and they are freakin' huge!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I think I have small lobes or something because these babies are so noticeable!

Everyone at WF was so helpful too and the credit back process was super quick.  Big thanks to the team - Lesley, Travis, James, and Vera

Now that I own ACA J's and K's I think my next purchase will be in that same color range. 

Enjoy the pics!!!  and I'm soooo happy that I'll have these little babies on our upcoming trip to Maui for our wedding!!!

let me try this one, one more time

Size ref. my asscher is 1.54 H, SI1, 6.44 x 6.43

ACA's are 4.35 and 4.36  - I'm so in love w/ this size.  I thought I'd want jackets down the road, but I think that overpower my lobes a little, what do you think?
Maybe I'll buy a bezel necklace to match next (either single or dbty style, or maybe both )

Gorgeous earrings, and great pics! I actually have the exact same earrings in the exact same size from WF and I LOVE them. I have Is but they are so white I know I could have gotten Js and been just as happy with them.

And although it was a mistake, it's actually good to know that the K ACA looks exactly like the J ACA. (WF is always so great about fixing any boo boos, too!)

They look huge on you-what a perfect size! Congratulations!

Oooooooh, I love them!!!  They are stunning and they do look huge!!  They look only slightly smaller than your large ascher, amazing how much the bezel helps!  They look pretty darn white to me as well.

Thanks Canuk-gal, I think so too!

Hi Thing2of2, did you post your bezels? I don't remember seeing them.  Yeah, I love the size, so glad I went with them.  And I'm so happy about the J/K combo, next diamond purchase will def be in the H-J/possibly K range   And yes, Whiteflash did an awesome job and fast at fixing the boo boo.

Deelight, they're addicting! 

Thanks Kaleigh! 

I know, they look so big Kcoursolle.  I can't belive the difference the bezel makes

Thanks Diamondseeker!   And you're welcome for the ear shots. 

I hope to get a new camera soon, so if I do, I'll take some more shots

Congrats!  I am still loving mine, and I think you will get many, many years of joy out of them.

One thing though...keep em clean, cause boy do earrings get ICKY (or is it just me?)

Not really-I had a thread about them in Hangout and I posted a couple of terrible pictures in there but I never did a SMTR thread. Here's an ear shot from the old thread. (Sadly my lobes are not as tiny as yours!)

So true! Plus I can never put them on without touching the diamond a little bit! It makes me crazy!
