Well... after losing my original engagement ring (1.07 J I1 AVC [completely eye-clean]), I decided I wanted a true antique since the itch was never really scratched with the AVC. Erica and Grace were such dolls, after I pestered them to death about finding a suitable replacement, and even after that.. bugging them endlessly about when my ring would be done. After the CADs were approved, it only took 2 1/2 weeks to complete ! Thank you so much, JBEG!

3.48 O/P VS1 Antique Cushion
9.21 mm X 8.88 mm

18k rose gold halo and platinum for the shank and gallery.

Sized for 4.25 with sizing beads (I am a sixe 3.5/3.75 but size up to stack bands)

Thank you :) How are you handling your giant upgrade? I felt awkward just wearing it around shopping today.

Beautiful!!!! :appl: :appl: I have become quite a fan of warmer stones, and love antique cushions. If I hadn't found my round OEC, I was leaning towards looking for a cushion. Pleeeeeeease can we have more pictures?
 
It's gorgeous! Looks so huge on your hand as well!
 
It looks beautiful but I agree we need more handshots - particularly closeups! Looks like you are wearing a band with it?

Congrats on your replacement - what a replacement!!
 
Beautiful! Please post more photos of the setting, it's amazing.
 
I ADORE this ring. I think I just fainted! What a spectacular beauty!!!
 
:eek: :love: :love: :love: :love: :love: :love:

I guess you can tell by now how I feel about this ring lol! It's so beautiful it nearly took my breath away! Amazing! Congrats!
 
NKOTB: aha until I get a better camera.. I only have phone pics (since my digi cam is 5 years old ;( )

Packrat: thanks :) How's your new 3 stone? Getting used to the heft?

MGR: Yeah, hubby wanted the exact same setting and wband as the original. We haven't decided if we wanted to engrave the wband or not... would it be weird to engrave it with the same thing as the first time around?

Quaddio : :) Thanks.

Rosebloom: haha thanks! Don't forget to breathe... I know I almost did when I first opened the box ;)

Junebug17: Thank so you much! How do you get to used to such a huge ring? I think you had around a 2 ct OEC from JBEG?
 
Here are some pics Erica took before shipping this beauty to me

I actually got used to it fairly quickly! (to the point I wouldn't mind going a bit bigger! :cheeky: ) Now, it would probably take me a bit longer to get used to your ring - but I would definitely be up for trying! :D

And yes, your ring looks huge, and yet also elegant and very tasteful and perfect on your hand - love it!!!
 
WOW!! That is stunning and so uniques with the two color metals!!
Congrats!
 
The shape of the setting allows the diamond space. It's just gorgeous.
 
Gorgeous, love the profile view!
 
I love the outline of the stone (and of course the facets)...and that settings is such a perfect fit for it...suchhhh a gorgeous ring! :love:

I felt the same way at first, though mine doesn't have quite the same presence yours does since I have size 8 fingers. :(sad I quickly got used to the size...darn DSS! And honestly, aside from friends, I don't have people pointing it out that much. Maybe people just assume it is fake. Who knows. The way I see it, everyone has their indulgences. For some it cars, clothes, purses, and so on. For me it was my ring and I don't think that I should have to be ashamed or embarrassed about it, and neither should you! I think you should enjoy that beautiful ring, don't worry about what others think. :bigsmile:
 
wow that is really beautiful. it looks massive just dainty. and the stone goes perfect in the setting. what great choices!
 
Beautiful ring & gorgeous stone!!! I'm amazed you can hold up your hand with that rock :cheeky: So glad you were able to find this stone after the loss of your last ring. Congratulations!
 
Absolutely gorgeous, I love it.
 
I am soooooo glad there is a happy ending to your story!! I cannot think anyone deserves a more beautiful ring than you do!!

Kudo's to those fab ladies at JBeg, they sure do know how to put together a masterpiece!!

Wear it in great health and happiness R.O.L!!

:wavey:
 
Gorgeous!! Wear in health and happiness and please- post more pics!!! :love:
 
It's got such wonderful presence on your hand. Love the stone - aren't the pastels just stunning?
