I picked up my ring today! It is gorgeous and is just what I wanted. The stone shows up so much nicer in this setting and it isn't being overpowered by the setting or the prongs. (The prongs are itty bitty - but they look a little larger in these photos than they do IRL.)

I took a couple of quick iphone shots, but the color just isn't being represented well so I'll try more later with a good camera. For now, here are a few!

So happy for you it worked out like this!!! The new prongs are much more delicate and do not overpower the
beautiful sapphire!! :love:
Congrats with your new and improved ring. The setting is gorgeous and delicate. Love it!!!

Thank you everyone! I am thrilled with it. It's a little bit large on me, so I may have it sized down a quarter of a size but I don't want to give it up just yet!

Freke, yes of COURSE I'll post more pics! Anything in particular you'd like to see?

You all are so nice - thank you for sharing in my excitement! At Freke's request, I have some more photos! These capture the color of the sapphire much better.

"THUD" - I love that!

Thanks all!! I am enjoying it! If I decide it's too big (which I'm pretty sure it is), should I have it resized or have sizing beads added? I've never had the beads before and wonder if they are uncomfortable or if you get used to them quickly.
