Figure I'd post this in case anyone was wondering what a k looked like, or the JA cheapest setting. I was surprised at the quality of the setting and the whiteness of the k. Its still her temp setting, but its still pretty

Attached I have a pick of the stone at my desk at work.
One of the stone with my H pear
And some other ones to show the setting, also a mock up of my 5stone idea

The last two pics are in a yellow room in soft lighting. The stone picks up a lot of that surrounding colors. It doesn't look that yellow in person. I've been describing it as "bone"

Wow, it's gorgeous!!

Don't shoot me, but I think it looks a lot sparklier than your pear. What do you think when you compare them?

Its lovely, Niel! Really pretty & bright - I bet you're really pleased with it. Is the 5 stone idea to replace your existing pear? Will you sell it? Excuse my being so nosey. I am British, after all :lol:

And I agree with Laila, it does look much sparklier than the pear.

Yes it is sparkler. Not rude don't worry. That's why I switched to a MRB. yes I'll be selling it to fund the 5 stone. I'm just trying to convince my FI to let me before the wedding. I thinks people will judge me for changing it too soon.

My lead is still pretty though. I'm wearing it as a RHR :D

Oh my goodness that five stone would be insane!!! I hope you're able to do it ASAP. What a breathtaking beauty!

ETA: I bet the five stone will be amazing with your Cartier. So jealous!!!!

And that is why you cannot go wrong with a MRB! SOOOO sparkly and SOOOOO white! I hope you love it!!! The temp setting is really pretty too! Honestly, if I had the funds, I would get a sparkly round too in a classic 6 prong and yellow gold. I love this classic style. I am excted to see your final 5 stone... :love:

People will likely judge re: you changing so soon, but hey, they are not the one wearing the ring. They wouldn't understand.

What kind of wedding band do u have in mind to wear with it????

You are right people probably will. But I plan on lying :lol:

I'll say I had it fixed and they damaged it or the point was constantly scratching my knuckles so we traded it in. No one cares that much about my ring but me, so whatever I say they just shrug it off.

I'm going to wear it withy vintage Cartier rolling ring I got a few months ago.

It's going to look stunning when it's finished. It looks great now. But I need side stones and my baby to sit up a little higher, right now the culet is super low I'm the setting

I think it'll be ok. It's a really great ring and you can't beat the finger coverage. But I can't have my cake and eat it too hahaha

I am so happy for you to have found the one, having read how your pear just didn't feel right to you one way or another. It looks very white and sparkly, and isn't all that small as you might have once thought, on your finger.

it looks a little small compared to my pear, but i was prepared for that. it still has a lot of presence, even if its not got as much finger coverage :))

butit sure will have some when im finished :D

Niel-I commented in your RT thread, I think this diamond is gorgeous! And the temp setting is classic and lovely. The five stone will be amazing I'm sure! Please post a pic with your rolling ring :)) I really want to see it with the solitaire.

I think itll look really delicate and subtly blingy when its finished

i was walking out of work today and i looked down to my hand and i thought"this ring is so cute! Sure its not the biggest stone, and its not the final outcome of what i want. But alone, without any band, i think its so stinking cute! ::)

When i wear my rolling ring with it too, ill want to have all the side stone, but until then, im content with the cute solitaire
