Since completing my new lab diamond wedding set back in the spring, I’ve been bitten by the MMD bug. It’s dangerous to keep browsing! One of my purchases was a rose gold pave twist band from New World Diamonds a few months ago, and I have just kept poking around different sites dreaming of a solitaire to go with it.

I wasn’t normally checking Ritani, but I was enticed to their site by an ad. While browsing, I saw a 1.73 carat K faint pinkish brown, VVS1...I fell in love with the color from the video and it seemed like a really good price (I couldn’t find anything close to it on other sites). I just had a major milestone birthday this week and my celebration trip was cancelled, so I went ahead and ordered and received it a few days ago! It’s such a pretty pinkish-peach color and I love it. It faces up more white than I thought - I actually almost wish you could see more color face up. In certain lights though the pink really stands out. It’s at the jeweler being set now, and I switched from my original setting idea to one where I can see and enjoy more of the color from the side.

Here are a few photos/videos if anyone is interested in seeing an IGI faint pinkish brown MMD. I know the color won’t be for everyone, but I’m setting it in rose gold and my other MMD is an E so I love having something so different!

Here’s the stone on Ritani’s site:

Very pretty! I am specifically looking at an MMD for my next larger stone as I rather like the pinkish brown tinge some of them have. Congrats!!

Thank you! I didn't start out looking for the pinkish brown hue, but when I stumbled across this one I went specifically looking for them on quite a few different sites to compare and found myself drawn to them every time.

Beautiful! It actually faces quite white to my eye, but I too quite like the pink tinge of certain MMDs!

It does actually face up pretty white to my eyes also - I think with my setting choice I'll be able to enjoy the color from the side view.

I should have it back this week and will post some pictures of it set (and comparison with my E color MMD).

I picked up the completed ring on Wednesday - it’s so cool how the rose gold affects the color of the stone! I see more color face up in a lot of lights, although that’s very hard to capture in pictures so far. Here’s a few quick photos (comparison photos are with my .79 carat E VVS2 MMD):
