It's here! I'll take more pics this weekend, but for now... Here she is! My original earth mined .75 D VS2 round brilliant, with a new friend. 1.23 E VVS2 lab emerald.

This is a FUN ring!

Pretty! Love the proportions together. I bet it's really cool to have the hall of mirror and sparkle going at once.

that is stunning !

Thank you! I'm in love.

Thanks! I was worried the emerald would be too big, but I think it works. It is really fun to get these long flashes from the emerald along with the scattered RB sparkle.

Here's the backstory, if anyone is interested. :) https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/design-opinions-on-my-toi-et-moi.279313/

"This is the story of a lovely .75 carat RB that has happily lived on my hand since 2005. Set into a Scott Kay solitaire in 2008, that setting has had a good run... and now it's time for a change. I'm sentimental though, and even though the lovely RB isn't up to Pricescope specs, it's very loved by me, and I'm not willing to part with it. And I don't wear pendants, so a necklace is out.

Enter... the Toi et Moi. I was in a brick and mortar store looking at settings for re-set ideas, and she suggested I try on a Toi et Moi. Surely not, I thought. There's no way I'd like such a thing...

And here are the CADs for my Toi et Moi. :mrgreen:

My husband and I are polar opposites. Literally. If you know the Meyer's Briggs, I'm an ENFJ and he's an ISTP. Literal opposites. So, if the earth mined RB represents me... he's totally a Lab Emerald."

Shoooo-weee! Not sure how I missed this but your ring turned out beautifully! What a sparkler, love the proportions, finger coverage, everything. You did an amazing job sourcing the emerald that looked perfect with your OG stone and having it set. Superb!

Thank you so much!!! I think it really is a good match in real life, without overpowering my OG. And holy finger coverage, lol. It feels like a lot for someone that lives in jeans. Whatever, it makes me smile.
