hello everyone,
after over a month of searching and haggling with the jeweler, my asscher is selected and the setting is being created!!! i never imagined it would take so long and i had daily conversations w/ the jeweler to get this whole thing rolling.
if you recall, i'm doing this all remotely, the jeweler is in San Francisco and I'm in LA. So i had directed her to the daniel k. website to see the pic of the ring and apparently she had gone to the wrong site! So when I got the first invoice the pic was very fuzzy and i didn't notice it - but i had noticed she said "channel set" when talking about the ring and but i thought maybe i just got the terminology wrong. then on the second invoice (after correcting something else) i saw the pic and was surpised to see a different setting! but she is very nice and swapped out the pics, but the new price on the correct setting was $1500 more!!! oooh i thought i was done. but my DH must have had a good week at work or something and he said go for it! i had even asked the jeweler to price the ring w/ far less diamonds on it (only on top and down the ring, not all all the sides) but he wanted to get the same as the one in the pic!!!
anyhow, here's a pic of the diamond - now don't go circling things about how it looks lopsided, its not a good picture! =D
it's 1.13 asscher
F color
Exc polish/symm
vs2
60 table
68.2 depth
will send pics when i get it, should be done the week of the 20th!
thanks for everyone's help with this!
