Lisa, It's GORGEOUS! Are you happy that you went with the larger diamond?

I can't wait to get mine...It will be very similar but in white gold.

 

[Lisa B.]

Hi Patty,

I am thrilled that I went with the larger diamond. I can't stop looking at it! I am excited for you and can't wait to see your ring...I'm sure it is going to be perfect!

Lisa,

That is a beautiful ring!

Your diamond is big and sparkly and the saphires are a gorgeous shade of blue!

Enjoy your new bauble!!

Veeeery good looking ring!

Is it possible for you to take a side pic of your new ring?

 

[Lisa B.]

Leota,

I have attached a side picture...I hope

. I will post another top shot in the next reply. I really need to take photo lessons!!

 

[Lisa B.]

and one more from the top. I just noticed that in the side pic I posted the ring was turned a little...ooops...

 

[KittyTiger]

Thanks Lisa! I like it! I like it! I like the basket settings! So pretty!!!




I don't have very many basket settings.. only one actually, my heart diamond ring. And this next one that I've having made at the jewlers right now.




Congradualtions on your new ring and enjoy!!

Lisa..




I really like the look of your 3 stone ring and the sapphires provide a good contrast for your center stone..Congrats!

 

[Patty]

Ooooh, thanks for the extra views! I also like the basket setting. I debated going with the truffle setting but decided it was too "fussy" for me.

The blue color of your sapphires is perfect, Lisa!

 

[strmrdr]

I love that setting also.
Its one I have had my eye on for future projects.
It’s an awesome ring! :}

 

[caratgirl]

Simply beautiful! I love sapphires for side stones.

 

[aljdewey]

Gorgeous diamond...very "chunky."

Enjoy!

Thanks everyone for the nice compliments! Many of you commented on the basket setting, I was interested in a truffle setting, but when I saw it put together, I thought it competed with the stones, and I wanted those to be center stage!! I can't stop looking at it; I keep yelling for my husband to "come here, quick!" just so I can show him the beautiful rainbow show it puts off when it catches the sun.

I'm like a kid in a candy store...now, as for those earrings...
