Ooh, I am loving the strong blue fluoro! Blue or purple fire is my favorite, and your ring definitely delivers on that front! It's gorgeous--best of wishes to you and your new fiance!

Congratulations! What a sparklers your ring is

 

[Belle3]

Wow, congratulations, that stone is amazing!!!

I am trying to chose a stone at the moment and have decided to drop from an E/F to a G to allow me to go up to a VS2 without going down in size as I could see the inclusions in all the SI1's I looked at.

I am definitely going to look for one with fluero now as yours is simply stunning!

I also love the proportions you've chosen. I had been looking for a stone with around the 61% depth and small table - around 56% and can be honestly when I say I turned one down with similar measurments to yours as the large table put me off. I guess I was wrong, your ring is so sparkly and fiery.

Is there a reason you chose those proportions?

Thanks so much everyone!

Rhubarb, I got the setting from ID Jewelry - it's actually part of a wedding set, both are half eternity settings. It had everything I was looking for, half eternity with a six prong engagement ring, which, simple as it sounds, was IMPOSSIBLE to find anywhere else! All the other similar sets I was considering had 4 prongs. ID Jewelry also can't be beat for price - this set was at least $1k less than any other set I was looking at, and the workmanship on the rings is really flawless.

Belle3, we decided on this stone after I posted about it in RockyTalky, asking for opinions - like you, I was worried about what seemed like an unusually large table. When researching through both RT and SMTB, it appeared that most people had stones with tables under 60%. So I went to the experts over on RT and they assured me that it's more of a personal preference thing. Hopefully I've got that right, my diamond education is still a little rough. Here is the link to that thread if you'd like to read it - https://www.pricescope.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=130858. The one comment in that thread that really swayed me was Laila's, which said that bc of the stone's proportions, it would produce lots of bright, white light, as opposed to colored light, and when viewing the stone alongside H&A stones with smaller tables, I found that I did like that effect. However, that being said, this stone does produce a LOT of color in many lighting situations. Good luck on your stone search!

It is wonderful! I just love fluorescence!

Dawnabee, my finger size is somewhere between a 3.5 and 3.75 - the actual ring size is 3.75 and it's a bit spinny, so I think I may have to put in those sizing balls, particularly if the spinning gets worse during the cold winter months. Not that it gets THAT cold in southern California though, I guess!
