Wow, looks great! I've wondered how my ering (3 stone with similar sizes) would look as a 5 stone. Now I can wonder no more! And with the Trinity too! Congrats!

Your set was really inspirational to me. But of course I had a lot more finger to cover so I had to add a set of stones.

:D

Can you do some more distance shots so we can see how the whole ensemble looks from a more typical vantage point?

Niel, you worked so hard to get the ring of your dreams, and you made it happen, and you stayed within
what seemed to me a very restrictive budget. Look at how you pulled this off !!!!!!
The stones are beautiful and the amount of sparkle-power coming from them is soul-satisfying, I'm sure that ring lights up the night :love: :love: :love:

Congratulations to you and Best Wishes on your upcoming wedding. You ER is lovely with the Trinity !

yeah my budget was a bit tight for the amount i wanted to do with it, but i love the hunt for a good price, so that helped.
I truly appreciate everyone who understood my struggles with my e ring, it means a lot that a lot of you ladies understood and put up with me ::)

Yeah I've become a strong believer of the "k's are OK!" Mantra. Especially at this size. I mean I may be color sensitive because I can see it, but I have a high tolerance because it does not have an unattractive tint at ALL!

I love the sparkle, sparkle, and more sparkle all the way across your finger!! SO PRETTY Niel :love: :love: ! I also like the way you describe the K color as something that you can see but is not at all unattractive (for those often asking about the warmth that diamonds can exhibit). Your ring looks perfect on you!!

I love it! It looks great with your band. I do hope JA will offer this as a stock setting -- it's a very graceful setting. Congrats, Niel :appl: , on the very successful completion of your custom design!

It turned out beautifully Niel!!

I commented in the other thread but seeing more pics... the graduation really is perfect! And JA did a really nice job with the setting - the shared prongs pinched so closely together makes a lovely scalloped outline. Ditto Lula - I think they should seriously consider making this a stock setting.

It's beautiful paired with your Trinity ::) I'm very glad to hear that you finally have a ring that you love!! :appl:

Out of curiosity, do you know what WG alloy JA used?
