After nearly 7 years of mostly lurking here I finally have something to share with all of you. My fiancé proposed to me on his birthday with a ring that’s beyond my wildest dreams! It truly takes my breath away every time I look at it.

GIA Triple Ex
1.71
E
SI1 - Totally Eyeclean
HCA Score: 1.7

Ring size 6.5

Our shopping experience with Yekutiel at IDJ was flawless. He took our “PS standards” into consideration and presented us with this diamond on our first visit. Needless to say, it was the only one he needed to show us. He was so pleasant to work with and very patient with our multiple visits to double & triple check our diamond.

To quote Sir Mix-A-Lot, “I’m hooked and I can’t stop staring….”

Now onto the pics :appl:

Its a beauty,love the halo size! Congratulations on your engagement!
 
OMG I love it! that large mêlée is plain gorgeous! (not to mention the finger coverage) more photos please!

eta: can we get dimensions please?
 
It's beautiful, congratulations to you both. :love:
 
Very nice! :love: :love:
 
Your ring is delicious :love:
 
Stunning ring! :love: Talk about finger coverage! :naughty: Congrats!
 
Congrats with your engagement! How exciting for you. Your ring is stunning!
 
What a treat to wake up to these lovely compliments! Thank you everyone! Full disclosure, we actually got engaged in September so we are knee-deep in wedding planning already. My apologies for holding out on you all for so long ;) I always thought I wanted a more delicate halo but I kept coming back to this setting. Yep, that finger coverage got me! Here's a snapshot of all the specs. I was worried about the faint fluor initially but the sparkle rules this beauty so I've never noticed it :love: I'd love to share a video to show her "dancing" but I have to read up on the rules and such for that first. For now, back to work!

Awesome! Nailed it indeed!
 
Wow, it is soooo gorgeous! I love the halo and the gallery, and I love a round in a cushion halo! Just perfect!!! Congratulations!
 
Perfection! Love the Sir Mix-a-lot quote too:)
 
Omg your ring is absolutely stunning!!! So gorgeous!! What size are the melee?
 
Congratulations on your engagement! And your ring is beautiful. :love: It looks amazing on your hand!
 
That is a beauty!!... :appl: :appl:
 
Wow, I love the stone and the setting! Congratulations!!!
 
That's gorgeous! This ring is the perfect example that not every halo needs to be a dainty little border of glitter, when well done the larger melee are breathtaking! Enjoy!
 
What a beautiful ring!! Love the stone, and the setting is absolutely gorgeous!!!
 
Thanks again everyone! I recall there being a thread a little while back about being "over" halos so I wasn't sure what kind of feedback I would receive. I'm so glad to see that there are others out there who still appreciate them :bigsmile:

Davidsbfly - I'm sorry, I don't know the size of the melee. I'll have to ask on our next visit! It will need a matching band after all ;))

Here's one last goodie for now... a short video while under the trees --> https://vimeo.com/84440783
 
Stunning! I really love it. Congrats.
 
I LOVE the setting!
