Engaged - Finally Got My Leon Solitaire!!!

[calibali]

I've mentioned my ring several times, but never posted pics because I had to wait until I was officially engaged. Well, yesterday afternoon my bf finally popped the question, so I am the new proud owner of a gorgeous Leon (or Ifon, yeah that's me) solitaire. Even the little stamping error doesn't bother me anymore, it's too gorgeous not to love!

Diamond Specs - 2.66ct H SI1 (totally eye clean). There's one pic where it looks like you can see inclusions, but it's just dirty since I had my grubby hands all over the ring.

In the pic where the diamond looks tinted, I was standing under a bunch of trees and the colors were reflecting. I thought it was so cool!

And here is the pic where it's super dirty, oh wellll. Those really aren't inclusions, it's quite clean for it's size!

Last two, I swear!

These are my secret stones - a vivd pink diamond (for my april b-day) and a green gemstone for my FI's bday. Those are my favorite part of the whole ring.

Thanks for looking!

Thank you for the compliments oranges, bright ice, legra, laila, tigian, B.E.G., farleysmom, starryeyed, tyty, diamondrnglover, rosetta, blackpaw, softly softly, and cachette! I really was going for simple and elegant since I'm very casual, and it looks like that is exactly what I achieved. Yay!

Tyty - I love your reference of a disco ball because this baby is a sparkle machine!

Blackpaw, you are so right, the prongs are incredibly tiny. That is the main reason my FI wanted to go with Leon, he hated the noticeable prongs of every other designer we saw. They blend in seamlessly with the stone!

Rosetta - I asked for a shank width of 2.4mm, but we measured it after the ring arrived and we think it is 2.5mm. Also, my finger size is 5.5.

Beautiful! Congratulations!

 

[MakingTheGrade]

Wowee! What a rock!

 

[diamondseeker2006]

Gorgeous!!! Of course, I may be biased since I have the baby sister of this ring! Haha! Congratulations on your engagement!
