I'm treating myself

[BlingDreams]

I just completed a year-long intensive certification course for my career and after all of that hard work I decided I deserved a tangible reward . I was browsing at my local jewelers and saw a beautiful vintage reproduction ring; it was the elongated style that I have always coveted but there wasn't much life in the diamonds. A quick conversation with my jeweler and we agreed we'd have him remake it for me with some tweaks to the design as well as G/VS1 diamonds.

Here's the original ring and the CADs I just received with my version . The original had a yellow gold shank and a more oval-ish ends; I had them make the shank with rose gold and more curvy ends. I also asked them to add milgrain to the edges.





I should have the finished ring around the end of the month!

I LOVE it! One thing that is going to determine how sparkly the ring is is how they diamonds are cut as well. The cut is what makes a MAJOR difference in how sparkly it is, rather than just the color and clarity. I CANNOT wait to see this finished beauty.
