Based on previous gift-giving experience :nono: , my bf decided to propose without a ring---which turns out to be great! because I got to choose what I really want! and here it is!!! :love:

thanks :) I'm a ring size 5, but it feels a bit loose on me, debating if I should resize to 4.75...
Carat Weight: 1.01ct
Color: K
Clarity: VS1
Optical Symmetry: August Vintage
Polish: Very Good
Symmetry: Ideal
Fluorescence: None
Culet: Large
Width: 5.72mm
Length: 6.18mm
Depth: 3.93mm


It's a K color sometimes I do see some hint of warmth, but it sparkles so much! I just couldn't stop staring at it!
not sure how I could focus on work tomorrow... ;))

Thanks junebug17 :) I was planing on making my bf to re-propose with the ring, but I just can't wait to have it on my figure!! so without an official re-proposal, here it is ON MY FIGURE ALL THE TIME :twirl:
 
YAY! It's gorgeous!
 
Thanks natyLad and missydebby :) I first was considering a halo setting, but after I decided on the diamond, I went for this thin band and simple setting! just love the way that the beautiful AVC stands out! :appl:
 
Congratulations! That AVC looks gorgeous on your hand, definitely like the simple setting.
 
It's lovely.
what setting is it may i ask?

it's a GOG setting (not sure what's the exact name). when I was in the store to pick the setting, they just had it in as a new design..
 
Congratulations!!! It is absolutely perfect-- AVCs are just incredible :love: :love:
 
Its beautiful! I love the setting, where did you get it from?
 
It's beautiful, congratulations!
 
I LOVE it!! :appl:
 
PERFECT....CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

Lovely! Congratulations!!!
 
Love it! I adore a warm color cushion, it's so yummy!! :love:
 
Congrats nadiamo!!


Your ring is really lovely, and so delicate :love: and I think the warmth is especially beautiful in those chunky cushions :love: :love:
 
Ahhh, that is beautiful - my all time favourite cut. And the 1c is just right, you can see the cut and the size is very elegant, as is the setting. Lovely.
 
Congratulations:)
Any chance of close up shots. I love the AVC stones. Reminds me of my grand mother's diamond.
 
Absolutely gorgeous!!! :love: :love: :love: I surely do hope to someday have an AVC!

Is that the Vatche Caroline setting? My daughter has a round diamond in that setting and it looks almost just like it. I love the setting! :appl:

Oh, and definitely do not resize in the winter! Your fingers are smallest now. Plus, when you add a wedding band, that will help it fit a little more snugly.

thanks all:) We picked the setting also from Good Old Gold. It's one of their own designs. it's pretty similar to a Ritani setting I liked, but then I found this one also has everything I asked for and with much affordable price... yah! :naughty:
 
Well that is great! I knew GOG carried Vatche and that is why I asked. But better to get the lower price since no one knows who made the ring anyway! I do think it looks like the Ritani as well.
 
and thanks diamondseeker2006 for suggestions on the ring size.
Yes, maybe I should wait till Summer to see how it fits then. just not sure what's GOG's free resizing policy. I remembered they told me the first time resize will be free, but I don't know if I could wait till 4,5 months later to do so.
but the ring keeps rotating and sliding up and down on my figure..kinda annoying...
 
If you have your hand hanging down, would the ring fall off? If so, then it is probably not safe. But if it just moves but stays below the knuckle, I would wait. You really don't want it to be tight in the summer.

right. it moves a bit that way but won't fall off. I guess I will wait :) thanks again :)
 
thanks everyone for the comments!
I'm still trying to make some nice shots of the ring..my bf said I'm crazy, I guess so :rodent:
not sure how to capture the sparkling shots, maybe I should do that under daylight..
