So, my fiance had Caysie make this ring way back in late 2016....we found the loose stone on James Allen, then he told me to do exactly what I wanted with it, so I contacted Caysie and we were off to the races!!! The ring was finished, and fiance kept it in hiding until about a week and a half ago....long story involving the divorce from hell, but he was finally able to ask me the question that we have waited SO long for on June 22, and this beauty has been on my hand ever since, aside from the 3 hours it took to get it appraised!

The stone is a 1.71ct K VS2 GIA certed cut cornered rectangular step cut (It is the stone in my avatar). The setting is 18K unplated white gold, which goes absolutely beautifully with the slight warmth of the stone. The little side stones are slightly warm too....all in all, Caysie really outdid herself, and I couldn't be happier with it!!!

And yes, my ring was the first "Annie" that Caysie ever made...my name is Annie, and when she asked fiance what he'd like to name the setting, that's what he chose. :)

Here is Caysie's etsy listing for The Annie (Caysie's pics that she took of my ring before shipping are on there, just scroll thru past that delicious big asscher looking sparkler):

And here are some quick handshots (sorry they're not super great, just took them quickly with my phone)

What a beautiful reward for your patience! It must have been so hard to wait, knowing the ring was all ready to go. So glad that the divorce troubles are done with so you can both start your new beginning.
