Jen123 -- If you haven't already, you have GOT to start a thread for that beauty! It's amazing!

I don't think I've added mine to this thread yet. It's a 2.97 L/SI1 OEC. It measures 8.88 x 8.97 x 6.05 mm and is set in the "Brandie" platinum solitaire setting, by Mark Turnowski/Brilliantly Engaged. The ring is sized at 3.75. Here's the thread on my ring:

Here's my reset engagement ring! New ring made by Steven Kirsch, whom I highly recommend. The pave work is absolute perfection! I never did an SMTB thread so here are some glamour shots and my own (crappy) shot taken with an iPhone. Specs:

Center Stone:
2.55ct 8.74 x 6.77 E/VS1 VG/VG

Side Stones:
0.72ct 5.85 x 4.47 E/VVS2 VG/VG
0.70ct 5.61 x 4.47 F/VS1 VG/VG

Thanks, baby monster, and sorry, I don't know how I managed to mistype the size, it's should be 2.73 (8.97*9.00*5.56).

I know mine a little bigger than 3ct, but I couldn't find the 3ct + thread. So here it goes. My 5.65 Vs1 cushion champagne diamond accented by .95ct Vs2 g princess and round side stones. The band is set in white gold and the heading/prongs are set in yellow gold. :) image_2879.jpg image_2880.jpg

Re: Let''s Show Off Our 2-3 Carat

I still haven't posted my upgrade. my DH picked it out all by himself this time as 10th anniversary gift and before he went to S. korea. :(( miss him. Anyways pricescope is helping me at night, this is fun getting ideas and looking at pics!
It's 2.23ct G color SI2 (eye-clean) GIA triple X HCA 1.4. In a Vatche u-113 plat setting, which I found by looking up pricescope for best knife edge 6 prong and found diamondseeker and bliss, so thank you for your pictures! oh pictures not to good because i used iPhone 4s but still was able to get something good. and sorry for winter hands in the last picture :D

Cushion Modified Brilliant ("X factor" pavillion):
2.52 F / VS1
L7.99 x W7.50 x H5.23

Round sides:
G-H / SI1-SI2
~.50 ctw

Originally saw this stone in Pricescope through James Allen, but bought it in the Diamond District in NYC (they can pull stones you see here as long as it's in NYC, because the GIA is right upstairs!) and they beat the online price!! :dance:

This is my 2.53 carat OEC, Color: O. Clarity VS1. Stone and setting purchased from JbyG. All of my other upgrades, as I moved toward this stone, were purchased through Grace also. For me, this is the Holy Grail of diamond rings. I find the stone breathtaking. Although I am partial to lower color old cuts, this one faces up very white for it"s color, which adds to it's to its charm. Plus it sparkles under any light! The setting is my absolute favorite setting. It has one OEC and one baguette on each side, which makes it slightly different from other Harry Winston inspired 3 stone rings. I am so thrilled with the ring and I want to send a huge thank you to Grace of JbyG!

that's a beauty, acclover. Would love to see more photos!

My 2.15 ct H SI 1 in 18kt gold with pt 6 prong head.

ETA (sorry - had to come back and add the '5' on the end of the ctw - it dropped off the end the first time and i'm not going to sell my ring short!) :naughty:

mrs-blop. is this the blue nile petite solitaire band with a 6 prong head added? if so, this is exactly what i'm considering doing. could you post more pictures!?

Hi da9k1ne

No - its the Brian Gavin tapered Tiffany setting.

http://www.briangavindiamonds.com/engagement-rings/solitaire/tapered-tiffany-style-half-round-18k-yellow-gold-5540y18

It's a gorgeous style and very comfortable and easy to wear. I don't have that particular setting (or diamond) any more, but I'm in the process of having another diamond set in the same style of ring. It's definitely a style I would consider if I wanted an elegant 6 prong setting.

I'm familiar with the BN Petite Nouveau 6 prong setting - is this the one you mean? I love that setting but have never had it as I'm not fond of BN's prong work and find it to be too lumpy and not sufficiently elegant. So that might be something worth considering.
