I have my DH's grandmothers engagement ring which is a beautiful transition cut diamond. I would like to set it into a 3 stone ring. The last few months I have been looking for a set of matching OEC's, but haven't had any luck finding anything on ebay till I posted a similar thread a while back and Dreamer found me a great pair, but then life hit and I couldn't buy the match set last minute (still kicking myself over that! :knockout: )

So now I'm back to the drawing board looking for a match set or closely match set of OEC or transitionals for a 3 stone ring. The center is estimated to be H/VS. I'm very open to color as I'm not color sensative at all so as long as they aren't yellow I'll make it work. I would like the size to at least be 4.5...my sweet spot would be 5.5mm but with my budget beggers must not be choosers. Ideally I would like to keep this under $850.

I would really appreciate any help anyone can offer by helping me troll ebay. My hat is completely off to everyone who finds deals- I actually think I'm going crossed eye this week from spending so much time trying to find something....anything that will work for me!

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!

4.5mm and matching is kind of hard. Most of the ones I find are just shy at about 4.2mm max. I'll keep an eye out for them, though!

I also tend to see stones around 4mm to 4.3 or around 5mm. I have been collecting a suite of 4mm stones and it has taken.... months.

I will look for you today!

I am thinking of doing something similar (for my 6.6mm L/VS late OEC) but have been dragging my heels because it's so onerous :? But if I see something that suits your needs I will shout out! The issue I have with eBay is colour matching, because it's such a lottery as to whether the colour is accurately described, or anywhere between 1 and 6 grades different!

Ooh a fun search! I have been tasked with finding my SIL a pair of 5mm OEC's for the jackets she bought from me (my old WF ones) so I'll be looking at some point soon, but I've been lazy so far! She's wearing my tsavs in the meantime. :naughty:

There's this, though they don't specify the diameter but may be worth asking: http://www.ebay.com/itm/60-CT-VINTAGE-OLD-EUROPEAN-CUT-DIAMOND-STUD-EARRINGS-14KT-SOLID-GOLD-3-499-00-/251154860609?pt=US_Fine_Earrings&hash=item3a79ff0a41
They generally seem to have matched pairs pretty often.


Thank you- I did email them to see what the measurement would be. Can anyone comment on this set?

And THANK You to everyone who is looking for me! I'm very open and they don't have to match perfectly. I know this will probably be a long drawn out process so I'm trying to wait patiently!

Any luck dreamer? I'm hoping you can give me another homerun!
