Been sitting on this a while....

Don't have glamour shots.... but...

Jonathan (GoG) was nice enough to shoot a sweet HD video of the ring: :love:
http://vimeo.com/17379532

Center: Solasfera 1.11/E/SI1 http://www.goodoldgold.com/diamond/7600
Tacori Setting is: HT2326SM-1/2
Vendor: GoG and Tacori Concierge/Consultation ($25 deposit you get back after you purchase)

I actually bought this last year with a lot of help and good information off the PS community :appl:), but waiting for the "right moment" (last month - yeah a long time) finally was able to bring this baby out!!! :appl: The good thing is since I bought early I purchased before the prices go up. Tacori prices pretty much go up every year. They ain't cheap but you get very good quality and unique styling.

This is the petite version of the ring and the max size is about a ct which I maxed out ;)) by going over .116 (technically it's by width). The regular Tacori rings are sized for like 1.5ct centers and the setting is overall bigger, which thought was a bit much, she's a size 4 and she's petite. Plus the setting is almost twice as much!.

I did pay premium for the Solasfera but wanted something unique and also felt with side stones the center would "pop" more with something special in the center. She really likes sparkle (scintillation) which Solasfera definitely can deliver! :sun:

Very happy with how it came out... so is she!!! =)

Enjoy!

Really gorgeous with the big big lightning video but I know the ring is probably perfect in normal light.

Thanks!

One issue is the ring rotates on her finger. The next size smaller 3.5 won't fit. Maybe it's too "top heavy" cause there's too many diamonds on top??? ;))

Any ideas? She was thinking of some simple scotch tape on the bottom.... but wondering if there's a "classier" solution :tongue:

Thanks!

You could put some sizing beads in -they make the ring fit tighter but not so tight she won't be able to get her knuckle through and they also help to stop spinning.

Once she adds a wedding band, it will make the e-ring fit a little more snugly. But if it is still too loose after that, then she could have sizing beads added inside the shank.
