Last and final Upgrade

[Farleysmom]

I recently sold my RHR (1.5 ct emerald in halo). I really enjoyed wearing that ring for the past two years but I wanted a "forever" RHR. To compliment my 3-stone ring which has an L colour center stone and J sides, I purchased a 2.5 ct L VVS2 for my right hand. I currently have it in a temporary 4-prong setting with offset prongs at 12,3,6 and 9. Unfortunately it's currently in being sized so I don't have any photos to share. I'll post pictures when I get the ring back (hopefully early this week). I'm not sure how I'll set it in the future. I guess I'll wear it for awhile and then decide. I don't want to rush into anything as this is my FINAL big project.

How fun! I cant wait to see

Farleysmom, I have a question for you. I am looking through your posts trying to see if you have a thread on this but I cant find one. In your avatar photo, it looks like you are using a bezel band as a spacer....is that what I'm seeing? Sorry to venture off topic but I have been dying to ask you since I 1st saw your photo. Thanks.

Hi lbbaber. Yes, it is a very thin bezel band. I used to wear a plan spacer but found it was a little too thick. This band is very delicate (although not great quality) I bought it as I thought it wouldn't be so obvious or detract from the other bands. I have attached a better picture to show you the size.

Thank you for posting the pics of your spacer. I think that is a fantastic idea. I am trying to have a custom spacer (flat on one side but indented on the other to sit flush w/my e-ring) made so I can get an eternity band as my wedding band and although I havent gotten a price quote yet, I am assuming it will be around 700. Sometimes. I feel that for that price I should get a small bezel band...I wasnt sure how it would look so was excited to see yours!! With the alternating shapes in yours it would help fit flush against me e-ring (where the small donut bumps out). Do you mind me asking where you got yours?

I honestly appreciate the photos....your set is gorgeous by the way

lbbaber: Thank you so much for the kind comment. The spacer band is not great quality but does the trick nicely (at least I think so). I bought it off the Shopping Channel in Canada. If I remember correctly, I believe it was about $210 with taxes and shipping.

I received my ring today but will need to send it back to be adjusted as it is a little tight and the stone is slightly loose. I need to correct the stats on the stone as I was confusing it with another stone I also saw. This one is a 2.5 ct and is actually an M (not L) and SI1 (not VVS2). It is totally eye-clean though. Unfortunately, I don't have all the stats to share. My Canon camera chose this point in time not to work (could be due to the drop on the floor). However, I have posted a couple of pictures taken from my blackberry. It is a very lively and bright stone. Thank you for letting me share! Your opinions, thoughts or setting suggestions are always appreciated!!!!!

 

[D&T]

looks great! i love that you have the prongs N/S/E/W instead of the traditional four prong set. Although you say its tight, it looks beautiful on your hand

 

[diamondseeker2006]

Do not feel pressured to keep that stone when you thought you had chosen an L VVS2.

Thanks Taylorbug! I have a very dear friend who is a jeweler. She has been the business for about 20 years and has a great relationship with many of the vendors in the area. Her family is in the diamond business in NYC as well. Every time I visit her there is something new to see and play with.

I have to say I am envious of your entire collection!

You are very sweet. I feel very luck to have the pieces I own. I have attached I more picture which is my attempt to capture the arrows.

I had to come see if you had any updates here. Great arrows shot! Love your diamond.
