Omg are you a hand model? What size is your finger? The diamond is just lovely!

THANK YOU everyone for your comments and suggestions! Truth be told, I was nervous about the J color (haven't never seen one in real life) and I thought it might be too big - I know, blasphemy!!

Wonderful news - I am not color sensitive AT ALL!! Lucky me!! It's beautiful, sparkly, and everything I imagined it would be and more.

Only thing I have to get used to is the the high solitaire setting. Coming from a very low set halo to a high set solitaire, I'm worried I'm going to hit this baby on everything. Small price to pay!

Gorgeous diamond and ring. Congratulations

Thank you! The ring is 6.25 but it's probably a quarter size too large - it spins, especially with a solitaire. Hope it doesn't drive me crazy!

Gorgeous diamond and ring. Congratulations

Thank you!! It's amazing how something relatively so small can bring so much happiness!

Does anybody know why the ring looks so gray/silver in pictures? Maybe it's the low quality camera on my iphone or does it have to do with the shadows caused by indoor lighting?

It’s beautiful, I have a well cut J and it looks ice white to me so I am always surprised when people say they see color in a well cut J. So I guess I am not color sensitive! Pictures are so hard to take!

They just are so hard to photograph. Believe it or not, bathrooms are great! Sometimes I've ducked in the shower with the curtain around to snap pics!

You could add some sizing beads for now.

I'm going to try a size adjuster from amazon - it's cheap and looks interesting, like the old school spiral telephone cords.

@PintoBean - Your bathroom suggestion worked beautifully! I think in these pictures I can finally see the hint of warmth that people are talking about.

Good god that stack! Do you find that it spins less when you stack the rings? I think it's also a little sexy when the ring slouches a little to the left or right and the person wearing the ring adjusts it to center. Just enough attention to draw the eye.

I also think you should keep in mind that that photo of is a static moment in time. The center is a bigger mirror compared to the melee in the band. The picture shows yellow brown things that your ring could be reflecting - light bulbs, the floor, etc. in real life, the diamond keeps dancing and flashing ( one of the few times where flashing IS more than acceptable) so you won't pick up any body color looking top down.

Absolutely gorgeous! I would never guess it’s a J . . . it’s so white! Just beautiful!
