Look whats coming my way

I couldn't see the video. What size stone is it? It's very pretty.
 
Yummy! My favorite shape! I compromised & got my pear so that it sat better with my eternity ring. Who knew my eternity ring would bust :(sad

Cannot WAIT to see your finished product!
 
Really beautiful stone... can't wait to see the stone set.. lucky girl!

Should be able to pick it up from FedEx before work Friday (the joys of working next to the fedex facility!)

There were amazing ASETS on the old GOG site, but it didn't roll over when he updated last week. Ill see if he can provide me them, though, as its really an impressive ASET

Very pretty Niel!

Can't wait to see the finished project.
 
I wasn't able to pick her up until after dark, so the photos will have to wait for sunshine. But its beautiful. Ita HUGE, the sparkle is even and delightful, the color is obviously tinted, but flattering and still relatively white. (Less than expected contrast from my K)
As the stone didn't transfer over when GOG updated their page, I got this little surprise when I was evaluating it, and frankly, makes me love her all the more!
(The fluor makes it seem like there is a bowtie. There is not)

Congrats Niel it sounds gorgeous. :appl:
 
OMG Niel! It is soooooooo beautiful. The ASET and video look fantastic - I love how evenly the stone appears to light up. Well done! I can't wait to see your pics when you get it into the sun!

LIIIIIIIIIIKE! Blue Fluor makes it exceptional.

Well thank you!
 
So here are the photos I promised. I'm very happy with the performance. But now in the light of day it seems to be too tinted :(
I'll attach some photos I got. In some the color is more than tolerable- but in the clowdy daylight its so tinted. And that light is most like my office lighting. I think I might be back to square one.

Gorgeous stone. Sorry to hear that you are not thrilled with the color. Will you return it Niel? Do you still have your other Marquise by the way?

I will be returning it, I think. Typically if it ticks all my boxes but one I'm OK with it, but I just want to be over the moon with whatever I get.

No I do not. I have it to my mother for her birthday last year.
 
That's a really impressive Aset - not just for a marquise, but for a fancy.

I'm sorry the stone is a little too tinted for you though. It looks really pretty and the blue flouro is amazing. Maybe keep it for a few extra days and see how you feel about it?

I have to keep it a few days anyway just with my schedule and shipping so I'll get a good sense of it before I send it back.
 
Wow, I love that stone Niel! I hope you keep it after a few days of looking at it. I think it is just beautiful!
 
I like it for the size you are getting. I don't like color in round brilliants but somehow don't mind it in a marquise. It looks so much bigger than your ring stone that it seems worth it to me. Wonder what it looks like under a tree, will see the fire then.
 
Sorry to hear you're not in love with the diamond. If it doesn't make your heart sing then return it.
 
I think that looks very pretty in video, I look forward to seeing it.
