Named after Ireland’s largest body of water, “Neaugh” (pronounced “Neh”/lNay”) is my “forever” diamond.
DH proposed (again) on 2/25/2025 with this AMAZING lab created Emerald Cut Diamond.
This is the upgrade of my dreams!
The GIA certificate is attached below.
4.00ct
D Color
VS1 Clarity (100% eye clean)
Excellent Polish
Excellent Symmetry
This Diamond has meaning for us within its very dimensions!
11.19 x 7.38 x 4.93
Our Wedding date is 11/27 (11.19 rounded up is 11.20).
I was 38 when we started dating, we were together for 3 years before we married, we have been married for 8 years (9 years in November), we graduated high school together in 1993. My birthday is 1/1, his is 2/14.
The 4ct represent 1 carat for every decade we have known each other; we were just kids when we first met.
The length to width ratio is 1.52:1.DH is 51, and his favorite numbers are 15 & 25 (Basketball & Football jersey numbers).
He made reservations at the restaurant where we had our wedding reception (different location; ours closed) to surprise me. He chose 2/25/25 as this would be the only time in our lives when we would ever see 2/25/25 on the calendar ever again.
When we pulled into the parking lot, I cried. He just KNOWS!! We sat in the car, and he reached for something, and it was a ring box. He opened it with a grin, and I DIED!!
We had been researching and on the journey for this stone for a few months. Initially, I was estimating a 3.5ct+. Finding the exact dimensions to represent our Wedding Date was extremely challenging. It was evident, we needed to increase the search into the 4ct range. THIS diamond checked all the boxes and so much more!
I. Am. In. Love.
Those who know me understand I am extremely sentimental. So is DH. I would have created this thread sooner, but I have been struggling to find a name that suits this magnificent diamond, and compliments her size and characteristics. DH & I agreed on her name this morning.
To have a diamond upgrade of this magnitude had been a dream I never thought possible. The Lab Created market changed that for us, and made this girl’s dream come true.
Not only is it above and beyond what I ever dreamed in size, color, clarity, and performance, but it embodies our entire story.
I couldn’t ask for more; I am truly blessed to be married to the most amazing “Diamond in the rough”.
Without further ado, attached are some of “Neaugh’s” shining moments….
