Gemgirl is correct. I fell in love with her ring a year ago and promised myself I would have a similar one. The open gallery is pretty standard and the shank is different so no royalties for her lol!
Brian Gavin and his wife Lesley can be reached here [email protected]
They are in the process of setting up their website. Brian Gavin has got a website which you can find by googling his name or Brian the cutter. I''m not allowed to link you to it because there is a blog attached to it.
They provide a recutting service, also a full jewellery design service, as well as providing beautiful diamonds!
They are amazing people to work with. Lesley is patient and knowledgeable and Brian is so passionate about diamonds. It comes across when you speak to him!
well, gemgirl and maisie...
would you both be offended or flattered if i got one also? i love the design - just love it - and would be more than willing to steal your hard work if you both didn''t mind. my contribution would probably be to make it a 7 x .25ct stone ring (big fingers need big rings etcetc)
i''m looking at something for Christmas this year and want to match the new gold band my husband had made for me. this would definitely do the trick!!
do i have your blessing?
whitby honey, that would be one fabulous ring! Go for it! Just one suggestion though, and I''m not sure this would bother you but it bugged the life out of me. Before I bought my seven stone, I tried on all different size seven stone rings to make sure I wouldn''t feel that pinch of either the stones or the prongs on the ends. The same with my five stone. Before I decided on my diamond size and bought my diamonds, I tried on five stone rings with .2o pointers, .25 pointers, .30s and 35s and I judged that I could get away with a max of five .30 pointers for full finger coverage on my size 6 finger with no between the fingers pinch. Have some fun and try on all the seven stones you see, then order your diamonds and ring from Brian and Lesley.
I was in Fortunoff last Friday and they''re at the tail end of their going out of business sale and they''re starting to put out all of their most expensive things. I tried on a six stone criss-cut type diamond ring that was 3.92 cts. ($48,500) and the damned thing drove me nuts because the end prongs pinched between my fingers. The ring was gorgeous! but I couldn''t wear something that bugged me all day. I tried it on just for giggles, I don''t have that kind of money to spend on jewelry. My girlfriend is a saleslady there and I''ve gotten to try on the most wonderful things!
thanks maisie and gemgirl - i''m in!!
