Exciting times! I finally bought her ring !!

Thanks all. I sent an email to Darren at GOG to request the prong work and he, as usual, was very responsive. They are going to give it a go

Well, the ring is now finished and just arrived! GOG was fantastic to deal with and I think the ring came out looking absolutely gorgeous. Im so glad I did the split prongs because I think they go great with this antique-ish setting and stone style. Please forgive the sloppy pics. I'll take some better ones when I have the opportunity. Posted below is my thank you letter to GOG, followed by the pictures. (I can't recommend them enough)
Enjoy!

Darren/Marie/Charles-

I wanted to write you a thank you for all of your work on the ring for my
(future) fiance. Your dedication to quality, service and value has
enabled me the opportunity to give her a ring that will knock her socks
off. I truly appreciate the advice, time and attention that you have
each given to me throughout this process, and the access to you all for
communication. This just reinforces my decision to buy from Good Old
Gold and ensures that I will continue to do so in the future.
I found out about GOG on the web at the Pricescope forum site and
was extremely impressed by the wealth of knowledge and the willingness
to share information by Jonathan, especially in his videos. While
looking for pretty stones on your site, I was also getting a good bit of
education about diamonds that helped me to be a better informed shopper.
Your reputation on Pricescope is well deserved, and I'll also
communicate my terrific experience with Good Old Gold to that forum.
I could have bought from a wide variety of online, or brick and
mortar stores in my area, but I'm very happy that I happened upon your
site and was able to drive out to your store to see your goods, and your
people for myself. Thanks again for a wonderful ring and a wonderful
experience! I know she's going to love it !

Very delicate and beautiful! Congrats!!! (you may want to start a new thread in Show Me the Bling, though, because a lot of people won't look at the end of an old thread.)
