WOW Enerchi! They're all stunning! What are the stats on that yummy 3 stone in the square box setting?

1.03 tcw (there are a few teeny tiny single cuts on the profile) 3x OMC's 14K WG and it was a BEAUTY!!! This is one that Dee*Jay had loved last visit in April... but there it sat... lonely... waiting to be played with... so we did! I took a lot of pictures of this beauty...

Thanks, it sure is a beauty!! WANT!

bastetcat!! No, it is not on their website and I can not remember any details --- I can't remember my name 1/2 the time, so don't be shocked I can't remember specs on all the lovelies we got to play with!!

Fire off an email to Ilya via www.diamondzonejewelry.com and cut and paste this pic or link to the thread, he knew all the specs on everything, practically off the top of his head!! It is currently sized VERY tiny - like, "tight on my baby finger" kinda tight! but it was BEAUTIFUL!! and he has a bench on site, so sizing to fit would be an easy peasy job! Just sayin'.....

Go for it!! you know you'll be a far better person if you owned this--- really you would... I can tell thru the internet!!

I'm so sorry to have missed it! Try again next time!

How is the knee??? Are you ok post Vicodin?? (are you oriented to people place and time?? lol!!) I'm sorry we missed you too, you would have really enjoyed all the bling!

OH MY GAWD!!! Such gorgeous pieces!!!

I bet you ladies had a blast!!!

A veritable *blast* was had by all and sundry!! Too bad you couldn't make it... maybe we'd have found a little sumpin sumpin for that now empty ring finger of yours!!! You may have other irons in the fire, but seriously, his OEC collection is pretty impressive --- shoot off an email and see if there's something that would replace your gorgeous Julia...

(oh look at me... instigating and enabling again! ... how does that happen??)

Darnit, I missed out on playing with all the bling and seeing you guys too of course!

Re: Chicago DiamondZone visit - PSers have a "blingapalooza"

For Susimoo!!! This is what I bought you --- watch the post - it should be there in no time!

1.9 centre stone.... GORGEOUS!! Drool worthy!! Loving that high crown!!!

Oh Enerchi

You remembered!!! My favorite.

I just love that one!!! Not that I am being precious, but you did get it sized for me, right? I would hate to have to part with her when she arrives so that it fits me.

I can't believe that beauty is still there. I loved it from last time. If I hadn't just blown my bling budget on another ring I would be very tempted by this.

Maybe next time you are there you can do some negotiating on my behalf.

Better start saving.

Great pictures and lovely to see you all and your bling! If I save really hard can I come to one of the bling gatherings with you?

Re: Chicago DiamondZone visit - PSers have a "blingapalooza"

Thank you for taking the time to post all these awesomely yummy bling pics Enerchi - the next best thing to being there! Sounds like you all had so much fun

Re: Chicago DiamondZone visit - PSers have a "blingapalooza"

Thanks for adding my ring to the photo shoot Enerchi. I adore your old cut ring too - and the setting is gorgeous. The yellow gold cluster was a favourite of mine, but I've been thinking more and more about the yellow gold three-stone as pictured in 'quaddio's wedding set'.
So glad to meet you Enerchi and Rubyshoes.

Re: Chicago DiamondZone visit - PSers have a "blingapalooza"

Re: Chicago DiamondZone visit - PSers have a "blingapalooza"

Unfortunately Dh and I arrived too late to meet quaddio and rubyshoes Perhaps we do a local get together with a few more of the Chicago area folks in Sept or October. I'll start a thread in Hangout in a week or so.

I was super happy to hang out with my lovely enabling friend Enerchi! Our hubbys get along famously so we had a wonderful lunch together then decided to head back to Diamond Zone since I missed the earlier fun.

It was amazing seeing all of these gorgeous pieces in person! Ilya was kind enough to let me try on all of the rings, that 1.68 oec was a stunning stone!!! And the mount was really beautiful, an authentic platinum piece. Very tempting

I was secretly hoping that a particular ring would still be available and it was! It was a ring I had tried on when we visited in April and loved but left without. On that visit I purchased a three stone ring: [URL='https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/the-enabler-made-me-buy-this-art-deco-three-stone.188370/']https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/the-enabler-made-me-buy-this-art-deco-three-stone.188370/[/URL]

On this visit I couldn't resist this ring.
I am having a bit of buyers remorse though because my goal ring for next summer is an asscher eternity band and this is taking away from that budget. This piece is so unique though, and I've thought about since seeing it last April. So what does everyone think?

Great shots - I especially love seeing so many on them on one hand.

It was so nice to meet you too, Quaddio!! and see your gorgeous 'picture frame' diamond and setting, IRL!! she sure photographs well!!

So.... ... I don't know what got into my head... but I'm thinking.... you'd be a far better person if you owned that YG 3 stone OEC ring!!

oh yes, you would!!

the swoop of the trellis! the way the YG just looked STUNNING on your skin tone! those three BEE-YOO-TEE ful oec's!!! oh yes... you have just about reached saint like status with that ring... just sayin'....

But... you know me - once an enabler, always an enabler!! LOL!!

Re: Chicago DiamondZone visit - PSers have a "blingapalooza"

Catmom, I wish you could have joined us... NEXT time...

Monnyjay - by the time we got back to the hubbies... I think they could have cared LESS we were out diamond shopping!! Something about a few 20 somethings and all that beer... i dunno, the story got muddy....

Junebug & Crickett & Marcy - I LOVE taking bling pics and am ALWAYS happy to share!! I think its always great to see them on 'real hands' and taken by a 'real' camera (iPhone, in this case) because I always wonder if things really do look that awesome (or that bad!) when you see some internet pics. As long as my battery remains charged and I can travel, I promise to always post lots of bling pics where ever my travels take me!! Can't guarantee I'll always have those lovely young hands to use as models tho....

Susimoo!! You are too funny! More than happy to negotiate an "Enerchi type deal" for you!! LOL!! And that beauty was calling your name the whole time... saying... "where's my new mommy??? When is she coming for me??? Doesn't she want me anymore???" I tell you, it was so heart breaking - you really need to get this sweet little thing home, where it can be cradled in your loving hands and feel the love I know you have to give it....Just a quick little "YES" to Ilya and this puppy will be sailing across the ocean to you in no time!! Trust me on this --- you'll be a far better person with this in your collection... I know it!!
