WOWZERS!!! Look at the bling. Simply stunning.

What are the specs and what size finger do you have?

OK here''s the recap. I started my ps journey in January. My husband and I decided to upgrade my my e-ring to a 3 stone ring. We wanted to us my original diamond as a side stone. It was a 1.01 ct G/SI1 eyeclean stone. The problem I learned from ps is that is was deep. On the suggestion of people on ps I took my stone to Brian Gavin for a recut. He was hoping to keep the stone at the .9 ct mark but was unable to achieve an ideal cut at the weight. He transformed her into .85 ct beauty who now shows off some pretty hearts! Next he matched a H&A .815 ct G/VS1 for the sidestone. We finally went in to look at center stones. I really had budgeted a 1.5 G stone. However I quickly learned I liked the proportions better with a 1.7 ct stone. Luckily I found out I am not very color sensitive (good new for future projects). We chose the 1.7 ct H&A I/SI1 eyeclean stone I had posted earlier for you all to review.
It was set in BGD truth head setting, platinum, size 5.5.

I have to say I LOVE it!!!!! I cannot believe the finger coverage, to think 1 side stone is what I used to have. I feel very blessed to be able to own this ring.

Thanks I am really happy with the size. I think any larger would be too big for me. My DH is glad to hear that

Christie, your ring is making my eyes spin!!!

Amazing sparkle, amazing finger coverage and such elegance

WoW!!! I mean...really...W O W

I suspect that it will also make it even more difficult for Dreamer D to take final decisions on her own diamond project

 

[Natylad]

By the way...Your cat is amazing too

 

[Dreamer_D]

STUNNING! Gosh it is amazing.

Now that you have it in person and can see it in lots of lighting, what do you think about the color of the center compared to the sides? I would love to know that there is no discernable difference

They all look blazing white in the photos!

 

[Luckyeshe]
