And that TOO would be just fine!
I bet she gets it all of the time! And WHO wouldn''t want to run around with all kinds of stunning gems on their hands?
Are you still thinking of a clean-line, solitaire setting? How would you feel about an oval?
I've actually been wanting the oval-that is my first choice, but my second choice would be a round. I do still want to do the clean-line solitaire setting.
I wrote him asking how he would cut the stone if he just picked it up and decided to cut it, so we''ll see what he says. The oval would be north-south. I''d want BF to get it higher set so that the band could sit flush. Which is another reason that I''d want a smaller stone. With the big honker blue stone, I''d have to think big time about that plan, because it would seriously stick up and P me off.
So help me to visualize this: if the WB has the smaller centre round stone like you''ve posted above, how would the oval or round of the ER fit in with that?
My preference would be round, or the oval set east-west.
That sounds like a good plan.Date: 8/18/2008 1:05:34 PM

Lol lori I will go with whoever comes up with the right rough and cuts it well! I''m not picky, I swear! And Jeff is not looking likely because he doesn''t have any suitable rough, and it doesn''t sound like he''s going to be getting any in soon either.
I know that when I find the right stone, I''ll know it, which is why I''m not worrying about it too much. Although BF has told me I''m obsessing about it.
LS I told John to cut a round. I''m not sure what dictated this decision...I guess the higher yield got to me. Who knew Freke was a little bit of a size whore? 1.5-1.75 vs the 1.25ish oval. He thinks it should end up being around 7.5-7.75mm. We shall see.
The krikawa band has the sapphire set so that it''s flush with the band.
In all honesty, I wouldn''t be wearing the ering and both wedding bands together most of the time. When I get all three, I''ll probably wear a combo of the three at all times. But only for special occasions, I''ll wear all three, and I probably won''t wear the ering all that much to begin with. I do too much with my hands-cooking, baking and all that. So the majority of the time will be just the plain band, and occasionally the krikawa band as well, and then even less often all three. Or possibly the plain band and the ering. Sooo....yeah. I guess I should just say I''m not too worried about the rubbing.
Dan has pretty much decided to order new rough, so we''ll see what he comes up with. And if he doesn''t get anything there, we''ve talked about buying a native cut stone and recutting it. So we''ll just see how it goes, and what happens.

My favorite color today would have to be stones that are close to my eye color.
Like so:
Yup! I think so. Those are in contention for recut if Dan can''t find anything else. Think they match my eye color close enough? (BTW, my eyes were looking more gray/green that day, but I do like the color of those stones.Date: 8/18/2008 1:30:37 PM
