Hi All!
I discovered PS years ago when I was in the process of upgrading my 1 cttw uncerted H/Vs2 stud earrings at a local vendor, who had an upgrade policy. Unfortunately, I hadn’t spent enough time on the forum and well, you know what they say about a little knowledge . . .
So we went to the store and of course I insisted on certed diamonds, which I got. But I hadn’t yet learned how to read the certs and what all the angle information meant.
So as I continued to get my PS education, I learned about the HCA and learned I had purchased one diamond that was 1 on the HCA , but the other one was 5.4 .
But hey, the diamonds were Dvs2 (hca 1) and Evs1 (hca 5.4). I thought color and clarity were what determined a diamond’s beauty! Wrong!
I never planned to post, I had nothing to really share, but I wanted to see the Preloved forum. So I created an account.
Over the years I have appreciated the advice you all have shared about different vendors and the help you have given new posters. I especially love the guys who come on and want to get something really special for their soon to be fiancée. That you would spend so much time researching diamonds and engagement rings is just lovely.
I never really expected to have jewelry pieces that I could share here. But I enjoyed all of your pictures, posts and stories.
So this long winded post is a long winded way to say THANK YOU for all the things you shared that have helped me in my journey. And I do have some PS worthy jewels to share! And that is thanks to Whiteflash!
