Hello!

My engagement ring reset by DK is finally done and he just sent me photos! While I enjoyed my original ER, I did not get a say in the design (my husband totally surprised me). My diamond also kept loosening, and after having the prongs tightened multiple times over the last few years, a jeweler finally told me that I would have to replace the platinum head so that the diamond would be more secure. After being quoted $500+ for a head replacement by my local jeweler, I figured a total reset would be better (and convinced my pragmatic husband of this as well :bigsmile:)!

I was already working with DK on another project (not yet completed), so I sent him my ER & WR (just to make sure they would fit together) & we started working on a design.

Here is the old ring:

Here was the inspiration (I wanted Art Deco-ish and clean lines for this project):

I am so excited- it turned out even better than I imagined :kiss2:

I decided to keep my old setting intact (I will be setting a lab diamond into it) so that my husband wouldn’t be too offended by the reset <sweat emoticon if there was one> haha.

He is shipping the ring to me today so I will update with photos/details once I receive!

@GeorgieQ that means so much! I wanted a design that would survive my (many) flights of fancy with jewelry. I am very excited to get her back!

Thank you @Kim N !! I’m so happy they were able to find the perfect side stones to work with my diamond. I am also soooo happy I no longer have my old prongs hahaha (don’t tell my husband)
