#JOTW My Custom HPD "Symphonie" ring with 2.793 F-VS1 CBI diamond

Thanks @cflutist

My heart wants the 2.74 but my brain tells me smaller!!

I can’t imagine ever wanting bigger than the 2.74 haha!!! I don’t have the finger real estate anyway!

Thanks for the advice! It’s a matter of $10k between the 2 stones so it’s working out whether to listen to heart or brain for .5mm visual difference! All other specs are equal!

If the smaller one isn’t as eye clean then my decision is made!

I hope the 2.74 looks like yours in the unset glamour shots! They are totally stunning, especially that pastel hue on the wood pile!!!

Snapped some photos with my phone. Don't want to go outside to use our DSLR because of the extremely smokey conditions due to the CA wildfires 35 miles awayl.

The ring box

My new 2.793 F-VS1 CBI along with her smaller 2.21 F-SI1 CBI sister



A comparison of the profile views, HPD custom on the larger CBI and Vatche Serenity #1541 on the smaller CBI. Excluding the size of the diamonds, I still like the new ring much better.



A side profile shot - Vatche tapered to 1.8mm, .12 ctw melee, HPD Custom 2.1mm shank .34ctw melee

I’m absolutely loving this setting. Can you get a diamond band flush next to the setting ?

Excuse the dirty rings, haven't been cleaned in awhile.
