Thank you LaraOnline!!!

I think that the term "SuperBowl" ring is used to describe really big rings because they resemble a Superbowl ring in that sense (i.e. REALLY big). The Superbowl is last game of the year in American Football and the winner is the Champion! It really is such a big part of American culture lol!

Not sure how big it is outside of the states, my family in sweden know what it is but only because they use to live in the US... you should watch it this year!!!

Here are a some pics of actual superbowl rings.... (now I am not advocating for either team... MY team has yet to win a superbowl ;( )

Restore the roar??

who we talking about? lol

LOL! you're pretty close! My team is the other "Big-Cat" team in the league ... BENGALS BABY! ... ( we aren't very good but we have spirit that cant be destroyed! lol ) and as fans it seems we keep on hoping and coming back for more..even if we get totally brutalized every year... Irrational really..but GO BENGALS! Superbowl 2014! :lol:

( ETA - I meant 2013! )
 
Re: How do you Ladies (& Gents) Drive?!?! ... 3.17ctw STUDS!

LOL! I think I am going to leave it as is... I love the thing so much still... Maybe set a colored step cut until I can save for a pretty little asscher to set in there! :love:
 
Re: How do you Ladies (& Gents) Drive?!?! ... 3.17ctw STUDS!

Thank you for the background to your name for your ring...
It's the most marvellous dome ring I've ever seen!
:twirl:
You know a coloured stone might be just the thing!
With all the diamond bling bling, a lovely coloured might add interest and emphasis to the intricate design!
 
Re: How do you Ladies (& Gents) Drive?!?! ... 3.17ctw STUDS!

Beautiful! I would keep the super bowl ring and put a nice sapphire in that.
 
Re: How do you Ladies (& Gents) Drive?!?! ... 3.17ctw STUDS!

Love the studs!! They seem to be the 2013 range on PS so far!!! Big beautiful studs! :love:

I might be the minority here but I would break up and recycle your dome ring and do several eternity bands. I guess for me personally I would never wear something that bulky so I love the idea of doing many different stacking eternitys. However, if you want to keep it in tack instead of another diamond I would throw a CS in there to give it a pop of color!
 
Re: How do you Ladies (& Gents) Drive?!?! ... 3.17ctw STUDS!

I would take the rest of the diamonds of the superbowl ring and make some nice chandelier style jackets for the earrings.
 
Re: How do you Ladies (& Gents) Drive?!?! ... 3.17ctw STUDS!

Did you ever figure out what to do with your 3.6? You should make it into a pendant to go with your new bangin' studs!
 
Re: How do you Ladies (& Gents) Drive?!?! ... 3.17ctw STUDS!

Love your studs I am looking to upgrade my studs and I noticed that you went for ideal cut and clarity but were willing to go to J-K in color. Do you feel the color takes away at all from the sparkle. I have a 10,000 budget and I want ctw 2.20 stones and with that budget I have to go I-J color I1.......

I was actually thinking about making chandelier style jackets for my earrings last night... totally aside from whether to use the stones in ring setting..but that is a great idea! I didn't want to break up the ring to make bands because I feel I could find bands that were already made.. etc but the ring is so unique I didn't want to destroy it...but IF I were to make something equally unique and special out of it - like chandelier earrings that I designed - I think it could be worth it! Great Idea!! thanks!

Do you feel the color takes away at all from the sparkle. I have a 10,000 budget and I want ctw 2.20 stones and with that budget I have to go I-J color I1.......

I went with cut over color because I feel that an excellent cut round brilliant stone faces up whiter ... even in a lower color.. So for me I find that even a K color faces up very white in 95% of the lighting... Only in strange indoor nighttime lighting can I see a very little amount of tint face up.. And in my opinion the face up is what is important in earrings because they sit on your ear rather than on your hand where you can examine it at all angles. Also the 8 - prong setting I have it in really helps because you can't really see the side of the diamond like you may if you had the more open 3 prong martini ( I am not positive on this as I do not own a 3 prong martini..so just speculating..maybe someone else would like to chime in on this...)

Also I have to add that although I am color sensitive (in the sense that I can usually spot color right away) I personally find that color does not bother me...I dont know why and I am probably the minority in this but I find that a little color adds something extra and beautiful in the sparkle of the diamond (just my own personal opinion).. BUT I find that I am EXTREMELY clarity sensitive...and for whatever reason it kinda bothers me... SO you have to decide what bothers you and what doesn't ...

But a well cut J or K faces up really quite nice and white... but if you are really color sensitive AND it bothers you... go a little higher.

I hope this helps! :wavey:

ETA: also I was pretty much bound to stay in the low color range as my first diamond (the one from the ring) was already a J ... So I had to stick somewhere in that range... which was fine by me as I had a budget and I seem to LOVE H-K range color

My plan is to definitely take it out of its existing double halo setting and put it in a simple solitaire. Then take the larger stones (relatively speaking - they are only 5 pointers) from the setting and use it to make an eternity band and use the smaller ones ( 3 pointers) to make earring jackets. Then I want to get a rose gold cartier "Love" wedding band to stack with the eternity and the solitaire for my right hand...and eventually.... waaaay down the road have a custom made (guard? converter thing? I dunno ... ) made like Bliss's to make the ring into a three stone when I want or just wear as a solitaire... This is my plan *right now* ... obviously that is subject to change depending on anything and nothing lol!

Still totally debating but * Lambskin * had an excellent suggestion... to make it into chandelier style jackets... I think that would really be awesome and I could be creative with the project so It could really have the uniqueness that I CRAVE!
 
Re: How do you Ladies (& Gents) Drive?!?! ... 3.17ctw STUDS!

It is very very helpful. I am back and forth now about which on line vendor to use. B2c seems to be cheaper so I could get I color but James Allen seems to be more widely used. I guess I should just call both and ask the best i can get for the 10,000....any way your earrings are magnificent.

When my mom passed her earrings went to my sister they are 3.26 vvs1 and vs1 H color and ideal cut gorgous. I can't come close to buying ones like that . Although my sister does share her's thanks sis.

Thanks for input enjoy your earrings

I'm not familiar with B2C... I liked James Allen a lot because I was able to see actual pictures of the diamonds online and now they even have their beta version that allows you to see videos of the diamond! and they will provide you will idealscopes too! So for me that gave me more assurance as to what I was getting BEFORE I made the big purchase and that assurance was worth it! also they have such a fantastic return policy and they pay for your shipping to return.

Good luck with your search!

I should have read more because I love Lambskin's idea too! I think you are relatively new so you might want to look up cushioncutnut's gorgeous detachable earrings. I love that they are chandelier's but can come apart and be worn several different ways. With all the stones from that ring you can do something very similar. Very creative and one of a kind.

Thanks Sarahbear! You wouldn't happen to have a link or a photo of cushioncutnuts earrings would you? I tried look through her threads but couldn't find which one it was from. If you do that would be so awesome! if not I will keep trying to find it

These are very different styles across the board so the threads and pictures are more for reference. I think if you have chandliers made it would be really neat to do detachables so you can wear them different ways. I looked into this for quite a while and got quotes etc, but then ended the project because once I had children my fancy dressing up time came to a grinding halt ;(

Goodluck!
