Our 30th anniversary is coming up -- ok, in about 15 months, but coming up! -- and I requested an engagement ring. Haven't been able to wear my original tension-set one for at least 15 of those years, wearing several other lovely gemstone or cluster rings in the meantime, but I thought I'd really like a large-center-stone kind of engagement ring for the next 30 years. I love fancy color diamonds, and have a fancy yellow bracelet I really enjoy -- it's just so cheery, even in gray weather! I thought I'd start looking now, that it would probably take the whole year to find something. Then I talked to DBL and within a week I had this, which is just so much fun. Very clear golden yellow, really beautiful dainty halo and golden floral basket. I love the detailing on the shank, with the split shank with tiny diamonds joining into graduated single diamonds. This is one of their hand-forged rings, and I'm really impressed. I also love how the stone is set low and solid. Specs: 3.01 FLY eye clean SI1, 0.57 E/F white diamonds, platinum & 18k yellow. Thanks for all the help answering questions, making recommendations and showing your stones so I could learn what I wanted! Now for pictures!
