That stone is beautiful. The ring looks so delicate on your finger and I think the setting showcases the center stone in such a perfect way. The faceting on that stone is just dreamy. It also looks like it faces up nice and white for an L!
What is your ring size? I''m curious to know. I think the stone looks a little bigger than a carat on your finger from the pictures. It looks well proportioned for your finger.
my size is a 4, i was just curious about what size it faced up on my hand as i really thought a 1.3 would face big on my little hand. But then again this is a cushion and i know they face up smaller than rounds specially these old ones. I will try to take side pictures : )
last one a little blurry but showing some color. As Porky the pig would say .."thaaaat''s all folks".
thanks so much for all the awesome comments they made me very warm and fuzzy.
It looks like a size PERFECT and BEAUTIFUL!!! It is so GORGEOUS!!! A simple design and FABULOUS till you are way pass 70!! I love it when women choose to wear simple designed rings to show off the beauty of the stone. It is so feminine and simply elegant. I know you are enjoying it.
thanks Papillon! yours is the sweetest comment, touched on the exact key things- it is so easy to wear a simple ring-even forever. I thought i wanted a 3 sided pave all decked out ring and while beautiful it''s just not me for the everyday. It''s so funny because i never saw myself as a solitaire girl until we got one : ). thanks again!
I like the photo in the first batch that shows how pillow like your cushion is. And all of the second batch that show the side of the ring. Lovely prongs. And I just LOVE the stone!! Congrats!!
I love that color. Now I know the monitor took the color away sometimes but I love that color. Maybe I should get an L. hmmmm..just a thought.
Love it!!! Enjoy!!! That setting is TDF.
lily! OMG, gorgeous, and it fits your fingers well. Diamond is not small at all girl! It looks just right. I mean it. Did Leon quote his time to be 9 weeks when he sent the work order or did he quote less? How long? Just comparing to how long he may go over if he went on vaca.
I''ve got to back and take a look at your ring again. I really love the color. Its like the stone contains sparkles of yellow gold in it. I keep thinking about it. You must be thrilled to get to wear it everyday.
Lilly, your ring is gorgeous! Congratulations! It is beautiful and perfect! I am so glad you were able to find one you would love forever!! I think many of us here
got our diamonds before certs were readily available and werent able to get one the first time that we really loved. I think you are very fortunate indeed!
It''s nice to hear about your bliss! Enjoy and God bless you!!!
panini! thanks! i know you were in for the wait too did u get your ring yet? Leon did warn me it could be over 8 weeks but that he would try really hard to have it done before vaca. I figured 8 weeks wouldn''t be bad but boy did i get anxious those last few weeks! so hard to wait!
Joelly, thanks for the compliments! I actually think that K''s, L''s, M''s are very special. I can tell you in almost every lighting condition the stone looks.. enthralling.. that''s a good world for it. It looks so soft and warm with just these beautiful colors popping off; not sharp and forceful in commanding you attention. It beckons you with it''s shyness and romanticism. It really does have a certain charm, once you look at it you''re captured and can''t look away. I have never felt that towards "white" stones. I always gravitate towards warmth.
Thank you everyone else for your lovely comments. They really do make a girl feel good about the choice made. I feel very lucky to have this stone and the wonderful husband that comes with it : ) . Blessings on all of you ladies who took the time to write these sweet things.
no ring yet... boyfriend is keeping the status a secret, but i can''t help feeling like a kid on xmas eve, trying to figure out if santa''s arrived with that ring (santa being Leon LOL). so we sent his written quote and deposit in about 7 weeks ago, so technically it''s been 4 weeks in Leon''s open studio, 7 weeks including his vacation. his quote was 6 weeks. so maybe i''ll give him 2 more?
did you email him in the middle of that time to check in, or you waited until he contacted you first to tell u it was done?
hey panini- yea i actually called him about 4 times over the 9 weeks. i spoke sometimes with him sometimes with his assistant rachael. Im sure ur bf prob has it already he''s just hiding it till the perfect time. hang in there! : )
