Hi all,

Thought I'd share my unicorn upgrade from Good Old Gold. She's a 6.03 K SI1, AGS triple 0, set in a custom Vatche platinum band. Pictured with my BGD eternity ring (F/G). My ring size is 6-6.25. David was fantastic in helping me find several options that suited my budget and requirements (cut and size!). This particular stone was one he almost didn't bring in, as I wasn't even considering a K color. I was also considering two amazing 4 carat I stones. This stone has a faint brown (rather than yellow) tint, and while the fluoro rating is "negligible," there in fact is just the faintest, slightest hint of fluoro that shows under the black light, so I think the fluoro and faint brown coloring are what makes this look so white.

She faces up pretty white in virtually every kind of lighting that I've seen, and shows a tint (to me at least, I am not very sensitive) in very warm lighting in a very warm room. Showing you some pics in different lighting (indoor, outdoor cloudy, outdoor sunnier). Needless to say, I am thrilled!

Whoa.... that's doorknocker level!! Congratulations on a spectacular upgrade. Looks very bright, and is actually HUGE. And I see you're in the bay area. That's big even for these parts! More pics would be welcome. And I think this needs to go into the 5 carat thread...

And, if covid ever ends, and we have a local GTG, you gotta come. I wanna see that honker IRL!!

Goodness! That's a big diamond! It really does look white; I would have never guessed a K.

Enjoy!

Holy!! What a gorgeous diamond! I always think large rounds have trade off elegance for a wow factor but yours has both! Congrats!!!

Wow. Would love to see people’s reactions. And I didn’t know there was a 5+ carat thread. So much sparkle.

When I read 6 (!) carats I assumed you must be married for at least 100 years for an upgrade like that. Well, saw your hands and you are no older than 25! The rock looks stunning on you beautiful hands! Congrats!
