Thank you! I’m so glad you all like it!

Catmom – he absolutely did. It hit every base out of the park. Leon does fine work faultlessly.

Logan Sapphire – I have your ring permanently saved in my ring file I’m glad you like it – I think it’s the perfect match for a 3 stone ring. I won’t be home for a month, but will post photos of them together when I can. Tim has told me I am NOT wearing it till my birthday in June, so we’ll see!

Geckodani – hi! So nice to see you – we haven’t crossed paths in a while but I was thinking of you the other day as I sent a photo of your ring to a friend as a suggestion of something they might like (they did!). your ring was my example to them of how stunning a ring under 1ct could look (they were umming and ahhing on size – so I said “look at THIS! Why um and ah??). they loved it and are now looking for something exactly the same size.

Marian – my photos are totally sucky – I will be the first to admit. Tim is showing some pretty stiff resistance to getting a new camera so he can take better photos of my jewelry! I ask him where his commitment is and he tells me to go check my jewelry box. He does sorta have a point…

Joelly – of course you can copy it! It’s a very standard style – it’s just the proportions that are different on this one; a little less metal and a little more diamond.

For *some* people (who will remain nameless, marian!), I will post photos of my 3 stone, and perhaps you can get the idea how they’ll look together…

Whitby, Thanks so much!!! Could you pls post handshots with the three stone ring? I would love to see how they look together.

 

[Dreamer_D]

It looks wonderful! I am eager to see the photos with your e-ring!

 

[luv2sparkle]

OK Whitby, it is official. I will HAVE to have my eternity reset by Leon when I do my e-ring this may! So very gorgeous.

 

[Bliss]

WHERE ARE THE HAND SHOTS, WHITBY???

Now I have that Lady Gaga song in my head where she goes, "GA! GA! OHhhh LA LA!"

Because I am GAGA over your ring going, "OOOOH LA LA!"

 

[portia]

That is gorgeous Whitby! And looks perfect with your ering. Love it!

 

[Venice]

Whitby,your new ring is gorgeous! It''s going to look "blingy" amazing with your three-stone! Be ready for a steady stream of compliments from admirers.

 

[Tuckins1]

Gorgeous!

 

[bebe]

gosh, what a stunning band. And you are right, Leon''s work is awesome.
Ok, now tell Tim to get his fingerprints off your new bling !! (tee hee)

 

[Novel]

Ooh, Whitby, gorgeous! The milgrain is perfect and so delicate! I''m glad you got exactly what you wanted in a wedding ring!!

 

[Snooper]

Love the band! It''ll look great w/ your ER. Happy Bday!

 

[Luckyeshe]

Love love love your new ring, whitby!!! It''s stunning!!!!!! I can''t wait to see handshots!!!

thank you so much for your kind comments - i really appreciate them!

Blingmyring – thank you for the welcome back
Geckodani – I’ve always loved rings in the mid-size range; I think they’re just so elegant and romantic, while still being blingy. I love your set
Joelly – I’ll post as soon as I get home to NY. I’m currently in Australia and will be here for another month.
luv2sparkle – what sort of a reset are you considering? I’d love ot hear all about it.
Bliss – bliiiiiiiissss! I’m in Australia! I’ll have to wait till I get home for hand shots. Will make sure it’s the first thing I do when I get off the plane! (more or less…)

 

[softly softly]

Whitby are you enjoying the Blue Mountains?

 

[Gayletmom]

Wow, wow, wow! Whitby, I can''t believe that I missed this.

Your ring is stunning. I can''t wait to see the pictures of it on your finger when you get home.

I love that Tim is kind enough to take photos for us-what a dear!

Happy Birthday!

 

[Laila619]

It''s spectacular!

 

[gardengloves]

Beautiful Whitby, all the best to a very special lady

I thought so too

Didn't I see something about hiding it until your birthday?

Don't worry - I won't be that mean. But I will start a clock running when you open the box, so make full use of the 10 seconds you'll have

Thank you for the pics!! I don't think that they are sucky. Wait until you see my new pics...they seriously suck

I love both of your rings. You couldn't convince Tim to send an early birthday gift to you down under? I'm so excited for you, dear friend

ETA: You neglected to post handshots. Unacceptable! Get out the camera and give it the old college try

 

[diamondseeker2006]

god bless you, diamondseeker - that''s EXACTLY what i was after - and have actually *said* that on occasion! i stood in tiffany with a sales assistant about 6 months ago and we both stared, squinted, changed angles, then went "naaaah..." after i''d tried the legacy (which i LOVE!) with my engagement ring. i think the style combo was bad; the legacy just got lost underneath my ring. but when i tried on the big legacy (5pt stones instead of 1pt stones) it was overpowering. it''s also quite a high ring, which makes it *very* substantial, and out of proportion with my e-ring.

i''m hoping this one is perfect - tho i''m *dying* to get home and see it!!
