Oh my gosh!!!!!!!! This is one of the most GORGEOUS cushions and split shanks I've ever seen!!! :love: :love: :love:
Would you mind telling me the mm size of your cushion and ring size? (I'm looking for a 2.25-2.5 cushion currently and having a hard time visualizing sizes.)

Thank you!

My favorite thing about this ring is the contrast between the whopping rock and the truly delicate thin bands.

This is absolutely gorgeous!! Leon has such a way to make delicate settings that also appear really sturdy - ie. won't break or fall apart.

This is meant to be a compliment but this ring reminds me of Britney Spear's first e-ring but a better made version. I absolutely loved that ring.

So do spill ... what is Leon making you with your old stones?

I know exactly which ring of Britney's you are speaking of....I have the photo on my desktop :wink2:

I remember seeing her ring years ago and thinking I loved it, loved the split shank, the delicate setting with a big rock. I wanted a cushion and I think Leon did a super spectacular job of making the ring of my dreams.

Whoops, forgot to answer your question:

the old ring is a 3 stone with a 1 ct RB and 2 .5 RBs.

I've asked him to halo the 1 ct into a right hand ring with 2 or 3 of his floating marina bands as the shank. Maybe with diamonds or pink diamonds? We'll see what he comes up with. I am pretty good at trusting his instinct. He may recommend something completely different!

For the 2 .5 ers I've asked him to halo them as well as earrings. I already have 1 ct each studs and numerous other .5 ct earrings, but no haloed earrings, so I think haloing them would be a nice treatment for them.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaa!!!! Oh, MissChicky! OK. I'm taking a breath now.

one moment.

let me collect myself...

This is just incredible. I love the length of your cushion. Makes your finger look long and sleek. And the split shank just cradle your cushion so beautifully.

It's truly amazing how Leon can make so much diamond look so cool and elegant.

You wear this so well.

You on ya, mate. Lovely. :love: :love: :love:

This is an upgrade.

I bought a wband shown here:

show-me-the-ring/leon-mege-wedding-band-helix-with-string-bands-t145466.html

(hope that link works)

from Leon when I don't want to wear the big rock.

I'll be having him design some new pieces using the stones from the old ring! :appl:

Chicky, I was thinking of perhaps getting the helix as a wedding band, myself. If it doesn't bother you, can you tell me the price? Danke!

That's great about the long and sleek since I suffer from stubby finger-itis!

And I love your french cuts as well...makes me want another ring! :)

Yes, the elongated cushion was exactly what I was looking for for this setting, I knew it would look right! Thanks for the vote of agreement!

I got a great deal on that "super helix" which is the helix with 2 string bands attached on either side. He made it for someone else and it didn't fit her so he offered it to me at a discounted price of $3,500 I believe. He said were he to list it on his site it would be priced at $5,000. That particular ring really shines as the entire ring is made with single cuts, (the photos really don't do it justice!) and I can definitely see the difference in the 2 rings (the super helix vs the full cuts in the ering) I would recommend single cut stones for a helix if you decide to go that direction.
