My new LAD pieces are here!

[Octo2005]

My new creations by Erica at Love Affair Diamonds are here and I am over the moon! They turned out so amazing, so I had to come here and share. Sorry for all of the photos and the long post

A few months back I purchased this gorgeous OEC/tranny from Erica. Can you believe it is an L? It faces up very white and only occasionally do I note some creaminess on the tilt. I got very luck, because when I contacted Erica it had already been sold and was on it's way to it's new home. The purchaser decided that they wanted a higher color and now this amazing stone is all mine. Of coarse, I feel that they made a huge mistake, but there loss is my gain. (sorry if it was another Pricescoper).


Creation #1
Next, I worked with Erica to design a ring that merged various designs from several of her rings to create the beautiful new home for my new stone.


These were the sketches that I sent to Erica, I think that she did a great job of bringing the sketches to life.




Sorry for the crummy photos. I am no photographer

Now for some photos that Erica took (with her permission of coarse).

Creation #2

While I was waiting on the CAD's (and stalking my favorite vendors on IG -LOL), I came across a parcel of antique french cut diamonds listed with LAD and I contacted Erica to purchase thinking it would be nice to have antique stones in the band as well as the solitaire. We quickly began brainstorming together and it was like she was reading my mind and all of the pieces really came together.
