Damnit, now you're making me want one! Just when I think I'm done, I get dragged back in by the siren song of sweet sweet color.

That is gorgeous! The color, cut, and setting are wonderful. If it becomes a nuisance because it's too top heavy (especially in winter), consider getting sizing beads. I had to do that with my sapphire ring because it would slide around and wouldn't stand up at attention on my finger.

Thanks for the tip! Yes the size of the stone gave me some pauses at the beginning, I felt it's a little bit out of balance with the ring finger, but I really really want it to be a ring. So index finger ring it is! I also changed the idea of bezel to the faux bezel during the CAD process to make it less top heavy.

Green and gold, perfect light-toned harmony. So beautiful!

It is so lovely! The gold really brings out that tone in the stone. Great idea in tab prongs versus bezel. How do they feel/look? I'm on the hunt for prongs that don't catch on every little thing.

The tab prongs feel more secured than single claw prong. I haven't found them catching small fibers, perhaps partly due to the high crown of the stone, the prongs ends half way between the girdle and the table.

Now that I‘m reading this thread again, I’m remembering the beautiful stone now. What a beautiful ring it turned out to be! I loved that you went with a simple, yet vintage inspired setting design. It looks so classy!

Sorry for the long wait but it sure is a beauty! I love the way the gold makes the green pop and those shoulders are lovely! :kiss2:

Thank you! They look stunning.
