[Stephan]

but I dare.
I''m buying a new diamond.
Here are the first pics Denise (at Whiteflash) took for me.
She is so friendly that I think she won''t ask copyright for these pictures.
Enjoy !

Ohhh that''s a beauty.

MARA -- Back away from the computer.....you can''t have this one.

 

[Kaleigh]

Oh Stephan,
OMG, it''s gorgeous!!! You''re killing me, I just adore asschers!!! Congratulations!!!!

 

[jenwill]

Very nice! I cannot wait to see pics of the finished product...

 

[Stephan]

Funny,
I really LOVE yellow diamonds, but this K is OK too, even if it isn''t yellow !!!

 

[Patty]

Wow, Stephan, that is GORGEOUS!

That idealscope is great! I spent a bit of time recently checking out asschers and not many had idealscopes that showed so much red and black.

Great choice!

 

[MaybeDayze]

Stephan - I don''t think that there''s much better than I nice big (3 carat)clean square emerald.
That looks like a beauty! Can''t believe it''s a K! keep em coming! Thanks Denise!

Drool Drool Drool....

That''s not fair Mara !

The 3ct H&A is a true beauty.
Now I really wanted a fancy cut.
But if I had to buy a 1 or 2ct diamond, it will still be a round cut by Paul.
For smaller diamonds, I always prefer H&A''s.
A 1ct Asscher would look ridiculous on my fat fingers.

oooohhhhhhh asscher beautifulness..... collective drooling going on here!

 

[blueroses]

WOW. Speechless.

 

[fatafelice]

must...pick...self...up...off...floor...to...type...!!!

That is stunning!!! And to think I''ve been looking at 1.25-1.45 stones! In the PS tradition, I am now ruined! Ruined, I say!

You have surely found a cute one, Stephan

Why 3ct?
My best friend (a girl) wears a 1.5ct on her little hand and it looks sometimes to big.
But I really have fat fingers, and the only diamond that did look huge on my hand was a 16ct Radiant...
Women can use very fine and light settings for diamonds, and the diamonds will look big.
But men have to use more gold, and that doesn''t help the diamonds.

What sort of setting are you going to put this in?

Hi JadeLeaves!
I still don''t know about the setting, will discuss with my jeweler.

 

[sevens one]

don''t forget to post pics.
Wow- that''s amazing.

With all the Asscher obsession going on lately- you picked a winner.

 

[Stephan]

The Story !

 

[crafftygrrl]

Stephan,

You''re really making me think whether I really want the big yellow or or shouls I buy a GREAT cut J-N stone and put it in an antique setting.

Your stone is stunning!!!

As my people say, Mazel Tov and Wear it in the best of health.
