Hand shots - three stone emerald cut

[DiamondsRagirlsbestfriend]

Can someone please tell me why my hands look like they belong to a 90 year old woman in photos? (maybe I don''t want to know the answer to that...)

Here are the promised hand shots. Thank you again, Whiteflash!

three stone e-ring set in platinum. 1.17 G center with .36F on each side

 

[DiamondsRagirlsbestfriend]

this is so much fun...

 

[DiamondsRagirlsbestfriend]

with the estate wedding band I picked up on eBay. Do you think it works? I think it does, considering that I''m working with emerald cuts (always a challenge)

 

[DiamondsRagirlsbestfriend]

I must be stopped.

Your hand don''t look like a 90 yrs old woman hand in the picture. The stone looks delicious and huge on your hand. My next ring have to be a square stone - either emerald or asscher. I love your ring.

 

[AndyRosse]

It's looks HUGE!!

It is just gorgeous!!

And I think the band looks just wonderful! Not much of a gap at all between the two rings actually (or so it looks!!)!

Congrats!!

And of course, you can keep those pics coming

I love the kitty picture, sketch. Is that your kitty? SO CUTE!

I''m actually okay with the idea of a gap because I love that old-world look (flushed rings didn''t come into fashion until around the 1950s, I think). I just like old-fashioned stuff.

thank you for the compliments, All. Smiles, Mary

OOOOOOOHHHHHHH. I

YOUR RINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Kaili]

90 year old woman?? Uhhhh.... NOOOO!! Your hands are very nice looking, silly.

Both rings are amazing, and together... wow! What a combo! I love them.

 

[x-raylucy]

Now THAT is GORGEEEEOHHUS!!

And, oh-by-the-way, the lighting is what makes your hands look *different* than in real-life (take it from the daughter of a professional photographer who''s been in the business for 48 years), but yours don''t look "old" at all--it''s simply that they look different to you!

 

[belle]

it works, and they look AWESOME!!!

Your ring is lovely -- a true classic beauty. Sometimes when I take pics of my hands, my fingers look fat and crooked. I have not figured that out either.

They look FANTASTIC! Thanks for posting these-- and your hands don''t look bad at all.

 

[didiamond]

They are fabulous together! ENJOY them!

 

[windowshopper]

holy cow thats a beauty--refresh us on the specs--is your center 2 carats?

 

[DiamondsRagirlsbestfriend]

I WISH it were a 2 carat. he-he

Actually, the stones are:

Center: 1.17 G color VS1
Sides: .36 each, F color VS1

I just have a thin-ish fingers, so the stone looks bigger, I guess. These whiteflash photos will give you a better idea of the size.

Thank you, All, for celebrating with me!

 

[allycat0303]

Very nice. It looks very big on your hand. Love the sparkle!

 

[LaurenThePartier]

Gorgeous ring, again! What size is your ring finger?

 

[windowshopper]

sorry--you posted the specs--when i saw the pictures i got that slightly drunk quality we diamond worshipper get and i lost all metal faculties for a few minutes.................

 

[fortheloveofdiamonds]

One word! Class! that is how I describe your ring!!

 

[jackpot]

It looks gorgeous! I think I will wind up with a 3 stone emerald cut--I hope it looks as huge on my hand as it does on yours...but alas, I have a 6.5 finger...what is yours?

I love the band with it...I was reluctant to get a 3 stone b/c I didn''t know what I could pair with it, but seeing yours makes me realize that you really can mix and match successfully!

Best of luck!

 

[DiamondsRagirlsbestfriend]

I''m btw a size 5 and 5.25. But I have extremely long fingers -- I can NEVER find gloves.

(And my fiance says my arms are, "freakishly long." Isn''t that romantic?

 

[Kaleigh]

WOW!!! It''s just stunning and sooo elegant!! You have very nice hands. I love the setting. ENJOY

 

[moremoremore]

SO classic and beautiful! I love it love it love it!!!

 

[asblackrock]

Hi Mary
Your ring looks stunning and the stones look huge on your hand. I just love the classically simple setting with the emerald cut diamonds. Don't you now wonder why on earth you agonized over the setting? It is perfect!

 

[DiamondsRagirlsbestfriend]

thank you, everyone, for being so sweet and supportive.

 

[Jennifer5973]

That ring is just beautiful.

Classic and perfectly proportioned. They did a greta job with the setting! And, it is so very becoming on your hand--your hand is lovely and elegant so the ring just looks tailor-made for it!

Yeah, that''s my kitty

And I too love the idea of a gap between the rings. Actually my e-ring has a very low head, which as a result will force me to have a gap. But like I told my jeweler, I don''t think that will bother me at all!!

Congrats again

Oh, and keep those pics coming, I can''t get enough...I think I''m falling for emerald cut diamonds...

 

[Mara]

love the new ring....and my better half also calls my arms freakishly long. he says he will never be able to escape my reach!!
