Hi Everyone! Thank you so much for your compliments and well wishes
I tried to take the best photos I could, but couldn''t capture the fire or sparkle for the life of me. It really gives me new appreciation for all the great photos here on PS.
I''m at work but managed to take a couple additional hand pics on my cell phone so they''re not really great quality.
I also asked my fiancee all about working with Mark and Leon as they are legends here on PS (both for very diff reasons). He had nothing but glowing reviews for both of them. He said that Mark was patient, attentive and really listened to what he was looking for. Mark met with fiancee several times and showed him different types of cushions to help narrow down what he liked. And what fiancee said was so great about Mark is that he has access to so many diamonds. He knows what's out there and if you effectively communicate to him what you're looking for, he really does his best to get it.
Fiancee also said that Leon was very nice and not at all what his reputation makes him out to be (temperamental artist). But on the other hand, he already had a style in mind and he let Leon work his magic on it. On a fun note, when Leon saw the diamond, he mentioned that it's the same diamond that he had procured for a client/project that fell through a few weeks earlier. I like to think that it was meant for me but made it's way back to Leon to be set!
I LOVE everything about this ring~ The stone, the setting - YUMMY-YUMMY! The faceting on your cushion and the proportions of it are so dreamy and I love all the micropave. More pictures, pleeeease! Congratulations!
LOL. Elabay, I had to post this to show you how much of identical hand twins we are! We could make millions!!! (Did anyone see that episode of Friends?
your ring is gorgeous and congratulations on your engagement!
i think it look lovely on your hands (which i think are quite elegant btw)! i used to play piano as well and i''m sure my teacher wished i had long fingers like yours.
Hi Everyone! Thanks again for all your kind words on the ring and engagement! I''m so excited about all the compliments given all the gorgeous rings on PS!
EHR - I love Friends and watch the reruns all the time! We''re totally hand twins. P.s - I loove your set, so tasteful and beautiful. I''m thinking of stacking bands too (a la Kate Beckinsale) since I''ve got so much finger real estate.
