This gorgeous diamond is on the way to me from Jewels By Erica Grace! I can't wait! It's a .30 K/L OMC.

I'm thinking I'll set in a bezel set ring, possibly by James Meyer. (I'm still waiting for a quote from him.) I might also have my fantastic local jeweler do it in a simple bezel setting. He does great work and his designs are very sleek and modern. I was thinking about setting it in a bezel set pendant but then I realized I would probably want to look at it all day so I figured I should do a ring instead!

Grace and Erica have been extremely responsive and helpful and they're been a pleasure to work with. I don't have the diamond yet (hopefully it will be here Monday or Tuesday) but I'm sure I'll be happy with it if the photos and video are any indication!

Ooh that''s gorgeous!! It''s going to look awesome in a bezel - and yes, I''d want to look at it all too - definitely set it in a ring!

That stone is a singular stunner!! Erica and Grace have a handful of stones right now that would make beautiful small pieces! I''m so glad you bought this beauty, and hope you can find the perfect home for it!!

Thanks, Upgradable! I agree-they have a ton of gorgeous little guys right now! This one caught my eye immediately, though, so the choice was easy!
