We''ve purchased the stone and Beverly K setting from Pearlmans, after agonizing over the specs, constant emails with questions, and combing this forum hoping to find the magic answer. After we''ve confirmed our decision and made the payment, it just hit me. We made this huge decision, emotionally and financially, all without seeing anything in real person!

Suddenly feeling frantic, I asked them if they can take a photo of the diamond (it''s already in-house, but we''re waiting for the setting which won''t be ready for another 3-4 weeks

)

Here are the specs:
Round Brilliant
Measurements: 6.47 - 6.51 x 3.99 mm
Carat Weight: 1/03 carat
Color Grade: G
Clarity Grade: SI1
Cut Grade: Excellent
Polish: Excellent
Symmetry: Excellent
Fluorescence: None

Total Dept: 61.5%
Table Size: 56%
Crown Angle: 34.5
Pavilion Angle: 40.8
Pavilion Dept: 43%
Star Length: 55%

It''s an HoF diamond, which I knew nothing about until recently. Julian, the sale''s rep we dealt with, was wonderful and took the picture himself because the photographer was too swamped and he knew I wanted to see something right away. So it''s not the best picture, looks dusty, but I wanted to share with someone regardless

Waiting is the hard part now.
 
blue, you have nothing to worry about - its a gorgeous stone, both by the numbers and the photo. And also Julian is lovely and helpful I''m sure everything will turn out great!
btw, did I miss which BK setting you''re getting? I love those rings!
 
Your stone looks beautiful! What kind of setting are you putting it in!
BTW- Your avatar is sooo cute!

Thank you! I''m just nervous I guess, both about the ring and upcoming proposal

I was very much involved in the whole process as my BF wanted to get me something I would absolutely love, but still once the ring arrives it''ll be up to him to decide when to give it to me so yeah this waiting thing is just KILLING me!

Here''s the BK setting we chose. I had originally thought I would be happy with a simple solitaire, but then I stumbled onto this wonderful forum and found out there were so may other choices! This ring is so much more me, I can''t wait to see it on my finger!!!

Your diamond looks gorgeous and will be a knockout in that setting. Congratulations.
 
Wow beautiful diamond and beautiful setting, I cant wait to see the finished ring

That setting is beautiful! And the diamond is perfect. Hey, I think woobug has the same setting for her RHR?? I love it, it will be a perfect e-ring! So unique and stylish!
 
Oh I bet it makes a wonderful RHR! Did she have any photos?

I wanted something that''s different, a little less ering-y. I hardly wear jewelry so when I tried on solitaires (they sure were beautiful!) they all looked so out of place on me. I love the ornate and antique inspired design of this ring and the fact that it''s so unique
