Next up - my yellow diamond ring with side H&A diamonds from Whiteflash. The yellow diamond was purchased elsewhere but the ring was custom made by Whiteflash. This was a push present for the birth of our first son.

Next is an antique cut diamond I bought from Pam Benson Antiques. The stone is ungraded but it is over a carat and a lower color. I had Daniel M create this setting for it in platinum.

Last but not least, my briolette earrings and my tiny OEC earrings. The briolette stones were purchased from Pam Benson and set by a local jeweler. The OEC were purchased from Old World Diamonds and set by Daniel M.

Thanks! It's over 10 years of collecting. My husband knows that jewelry is tops with me if a big gift occasion is coming up. He is very good to me. :) It helps that I have small hands so I don't need huge stones. Also, a lot of this was bought second hand which keeps costs down a bit too.

Thank you! My ering is a tight 4.25. My right hand is 4.5. The briolette earrings are very unique. I love that about them. You don't see them much.

Holy bling! Okay, now I don't know which one I like best. They are ALL lovely! Is the yellow diamond in the 3 stone ring round or cushion? It's a stunner. :love:

Oh my goodness gracious!!!! What an incredible collection!

What is the total carat weight on your WF flower pendant? And can you describe what a diamond briolette is like in real life?

Wow!!!
