Wow! So happy for you Austina! I am sure by now you are quite used to seeing that ginormous stone on your finger. I hope it makes you happy every single day!

It certainly does @luv2sparkle. I’m honestly blown away every day when I open the box. I keep telling myself it’s not ‘that’ big, then I catch a glimpse in the mirror and realise she’s huge, and she’s mine :lol:

Wow! Oh my goodness! She’s absolutely stunningly beautiful, simply amazing and I love the original simple setting.
I shall look out for airplanes circling overhead :love: she’s fantastic, do thoroughly enjoy wearing her....how wonderful!

You, and he, have certainly have made up for not having an engagement ring all those years ago. Congratulations!
As has been said before, in the UK she’s going to be a real showstopper or people will think she’s not real.I have a friend or two with @ 1.5ct - 2.5ct Diamonds but that’s very unusual here...eyes pop out on stalks! As most are in the 0.25-1.00ct bracket and people often don’t know anything about it other than it’s a Diamond and maybe its size.
When I found PS I thought “maybe I’m not odd in loving all things Diamond after all”....such a relief! Ha ha! :lol:

Absolutely Fantastic Austina!
Well done you, I can’t imagine how Missy can bear to part with her.
Congratulations.

Thank you @Hounddog - I do feel a bit self conscious, but she is so stunningly beautiful, that I can’t help but get a thrill every morning when I put her on.

I thought I’d return to the thread to say that I’m still blown away every day when I open the box. :love:

I’m more used to the size, until I see other people looking at her, then I remember that she is quite sizeable :lol:

I’m still pinching myself that she’s all mine!

So lovely! The side view of old cuts gets me every time. And your setting is perfect - it suits her so well.

Out of sheer nosiness, do you wear your wedding ring above Bella to keep her in place or out of preference? (If you don’t mind me asking!) It seems more common to see rings the other way round, I guess as most people remove their engagement ring more than their wedding ring?

I prefer to wear it above, both because I prefer the look and also it stops me worrying that I’ll lose her @lissyflo. Actually, when you think about it, people get engaged first then get married, so in my mind, it’s the right way to wear my rings :mrgreen:

Somehow I totally missed this, and I am so happy that this beautiful ring is still with a PSer! This was the ring that brought me to Pricescope years ago, when I came across a picture of it on Google. ❤️

Obviously being in lockdown for over a year, Bella has spent a lot of time in her box, but I can honestly say that every time I open the box, I’m still blown away by just how beautiful she is.

It's just so beautiful. Love the perspective shot too - I wish we saw more of them on PS! Bella can definitely be seen from across the room :appl:

Beautiful story @Austina. Not only is Bella exquisite but the underlying friendship between PSers is very evident and heart warming. :love:
