my fiancee''s custom halo antique E-Ring

[spon]

hey whats up everyone. my fiancee's custom E-Ring is finally done and since I used this great message board a LOT during the shopping and design process, I thought I'd share the results. It really came out great and was worth every penny. We used a jeweler in Los Angeles (Irvine) area called Liberty Diamonds and they did a great job. Troy and Christine were wonderful to work with.

Thanks again to everyone here for their advice, pictures, ect which helped to make my wife-to-be's (wow, that sounds weird-haha) dream ring come true.

[spon]

Thanks everyone!!!

In case anyone is interested, my finacee is Filipina and the ring has some special designed incorporated. the gallery design in an Anahaw leaf, which is the national plant of Philippines. Also, the little antique engravings are an ancient symbol for unity consisting of two rivers with a bridge connecting them.

Anyway, thanks again for the comments. It''s good to know that other people like it as much as we do. hahhaha.

Gorgeous ring. Looks great on her hand too and I love that there is so much significance to it. Congratulations on your engagement!

wow, we have seen a few beautiful plain shanks (no diamonds) with halos, and now your beautiful engraved shank with halo. That is such a beautiful ring and design, I love it.

Tell us, how high does the diamond sit over your fiance''s finger? The profile looks so tall.

Congratulations!

How could I forget the diamond specs?? I only spent about a million hours learning about diamonds and looking at different stones before I decided on one. You''d think I''d want to show off what I learned.

The center stone is 1.25ct G color, VS2 clarity, Ideal Cut. It''s not graded as a Hearts and Arrows but it does have that nice effect under the colored scope thing (forgot the name). It really really sparkles and shows alot of different colors in the light.

Rita- the stone does sit pretty high off of her hand. we wanted to make sure that the cathedral was high enough to show the Anahaw leaf design and also for a wedding ring to fit beneath flush. originally we were going to have the center stone set a little deaper in the halo, but the stone is so nice we decided to set it up a little bit to show it off more. lol. also the jeweler was able to get the halo tighter so that you don''t really see a gap between the stone and the halo when you look at it from most angles.

thanks alot for all the compliments!! i''ve got to save this link so I can use it as a "get out of jail free card" during our first argument as a married couple.
