My Jeff White asscher spinel in it''s new setting!

[MonkeyPie]

So my husband found me the cutest setting EVER. It originally had a cushion cut aqua in it, which I just replaced with my asscher, but it''s SO cute. It''s cloudy and rainy today (of course), so when it''s sunny I''ll get better pictures. But these will do for now.

I am SO in love with this ring. It''s tiny and dainty and it has the double prongs I wanted and thought I couldn''t afford.

And get this - it was under $100.

It has one tiny diamond one each side, with a little metal diamond on each side of that.

When I first saw the setting I thought, "Ewww that aqua looks terrible!" (I don''t normally go for checker cuts.) And then I saw double prongs...and I loved it. Hah.
