Okay, so I had a choice between a 20.99 ct emerald cut bracelet (40 stones, .50 ct each, D, VVS, all GIA certified) or a 14.17 ct asscher cut bracelet (48 stones, .29 ct each, E/F, VVS). Which would you choose? Actually, I took a picture of the two with my cell phone but I''m not bright enough to figure out how to download the pictures!
I still need to get my hubby show me the way and then I''ll post it. Although I don''t know how it turned out. It could be blurry. Either way, I will post it.
So anyways, I went back and forth for about an hour before deciding. My DH was absolutely no help. I think he was leaning towards the EC bracelet as an investment kind of piece with all of those GIA certificates. I just kept thinking that I would have to make a new file JUST for all of the certificates! The only problem I could foresee with the EC bracelet is that it was like a 6 3/4 size which bothered me. I don''t have a large wrist but I like my bracelets around 7 1/4 because of the heat. Oh, and the price!!!!
Needless to say, I chose the asscher bracelet (which is what I truly wanted). I am extremely thrilled with my choice and believe it or not I don''t have any regrets for letting the EC bracelet ''slip away before my eyes''. I told my DH I would like both but he wasn''t going for it. DARN! I think I''m a BIT spoiled!
Seriously, the diamonds are so WHITE! What I thought was pretty cool about it is that the prongs are claw prongs on each diamond. I can''t say that I''ve ever seen that in a bracelet before.
Too much talking.....I''ll just show you!
