I after long discussion with the Josh at James Allen -- one diamond stood out in his opinion and mine. The 2.14 that I posted about earlier ...

2.14ct Princess I, VS2 GIA Excellent Sym and Polish

It is a perfect 1.0 l/w square, had great color and the length and width measurements were equal or larger than other candidate diamonds in the 2.24 and 2.30 ct range. In other words -- this diamond will look larger relative to his carat weight and the cut, symmetry and polish were all ideal/excellent (which was the most important of the C's to me). Josh strongly recommended this diamond -- and it happened to be among the lowest priced diamonds of the ones I was looking at -- which to me says a lot.

He sent me a huge pic of it (I had to resize it post here) but I was sold.

It is being set as we speak in this setting -- Bridal Setting

I should arrive in time for our weekend trip to Palm Springs -- I am so excited -- I hope she says yes.

I do plan to take it to an independent appraiser in my area to have it checked out -- but I have a strong feeling that it is a keeper.

Love the perfect l/w ratio, and the cut; it's mezmerizing!

It looks beautiful, congrats!!!  She will swoon when she sees that baby!!









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...
