The diamond is here!!! Pictures taken with bad quality iPhone. Real camera pictures later tonight!
It's so much prettier in person and the color REALLY changes with the light. Outside it's a dark brown in direct sunlight. Indoor lighting with filtered sunlight it's almost a yellow gold and absolutely gorgeous. Then the shade varies everywhere else. Pictures will explain and are pretty true to the color in real life.
Eye-clean to me for 95% of the time unless looking very closely at it and actually trying to look for the one spot there's a slightly off inclusion. And it really does sparkle! Everything that David from DBL said about it was certainly true! He has an eye for these fancy colored brown diamonds!
Don't mind the horrible picture taking or my awful fingers... and the stone is REALLY dirty from all my fingerprints all over it trying not to drop it and looking at it every which way.
On balcony direct sunlight (first sunlight I've gotten in weeks):


Indoors with filtered sunlight (it was darker lighting here... It could have also been reflecting green from the curtains):

Indoors with filtered sunglight but with more sunlight coming through:

Under indoor lights:

I have severe DSS so will have it haloed in an absolutely gorgeously done DBL hand forged micropave halo if we decide to keep it. Husband said he would take pictures when he's back since I'm awful at this and can't really go outside but we shall see!
