2.75 G-VS1 in the Michael B 3-sided Petite Princess

[cutey TT]

Hi Everyone.

As some of you know, I recently purchased a 2.75 G-VS1 stone from Pearlmans...and had them set it in the 3-sided Michael B petite princess setting with diamond prongs and tips. I also ordered the matching w-band. It''s gorgeous and perfectly crafted. I had originally wanted a 3+ ct center stone, but with diamond prices sky rocketing the way they have been, I opted for a smaller stone to stay within my original sweet spot of G-VS1. I wanted a white, white, white stone (even from the side) and mind clean clarity. It doesn''t look *HUGE* on me (see what Pricescope does to one''s mind and apparently, vision!?), but definitely bigger and the setting with the matching band is bling-tastic!

I tried taking a bunch of pictures, but most of them aren''t very good (it''s kind of an overcast day here today). Thanks to everyone on PS who''s been a huge help all along the way. If it wasn''t for PS and all the helpful people on this board, I''m not sure what I would''ve ended up with. Furthermore, I did a lot of research on Michael B in the older threads before making my decision. Bill and Jason at Pearlmans were the best, and I hope to buy more beautiful things from them in the future.

I can''t wait for my husband to come home and let me know what he thinks!

Just the e-ring itself...I ordered both in size 4.5, but they''re a tad loose...

slurp...slurp..droool.... they''re just perfection cutey! I LOVE the Michael B head, I just

it. Your stone looks huuuge too. I like the way it''s not set too squashy against the finger, I think they look more graceful not too low-set.

Congrats on your divine rings,

a

OMG that is amazing, congrats

 

[cutey TT]

Thanks Diamond*Dana, angeline, Kaleigh and coatimundi for your kind words! I think I''ll need some time to get used to the new set...and look at it in different lighting environments!

coatimundi - are you thinking about MB? I love your solitaire. That was my original plan, just a plain, classic solitaire...love that look!

 

[sera]

Well, it looks pretty darn big to me! It''s beautiful and the side view is gorgeous!

What a pretty set... congrats on your new bling.

DROOOOOOl.............I love Micheal B. I found his stuff after I got my Tacori, even though my ring is gorgeous and unique, but this forum has really opened my eyes to huge rocks and beautiful settings. This is most most favorite, after mine. I wish I could convince Fi that i need 2 rings to swap out styles. You are one lucky lady

Yea that would go over like a fart in church!

Oh Cutey TT! I can''t make up my mind, so I''m just going to wait--so hard! Also, I''m waiting to upgrade my stone...again

. ...and I do love solitaires.

Your MB is getting my mind going again it''s so gorgeous! I really love it! I think it''s absolutely perfect on you!

Yummmm. Diamond encrusted goodness.

Just stunning, really. Love that set!

 

[cutey TT]

Thanks diamondrnglover, sera, sabinameister, and Ellen!

sabinameister - I love your Tacori. The setting is unique and gorgeous! I know what you mean though, there are so many beautiful rings out there, you wish you could have them all!

coatimundi - Yeah, if you are going to upgrade your stone again, then I would definitely wait to make a decision. Every week, a fantastic new ring would be posted in SMTR, and then I would change my mind or second-guess myself. I''m pretty much a commitment-phobe, so it was a big decision for me to go with MB (especially since his settings do not come cheap).
