Thank you ALL so so much!!! I want to do individule responses but it may take a little while, but I do want to make sure I acknowledge all of you!! I appreciate all of you taking the time to write such lovely things!!
Congratulations on getting engaged! It''s always nice when you have an heirloom diamond to set in your e-ring. And your ring has so many different details -- the pear sides fan out from the center stone into the 3-sided diamond studded band, which is quite chunky and substantial. The side view reveals the multiple sweeping prongs and various ornate details in the metal-work. You''ve got a "bling" ring for sure! Enjoy!
Congratulations on your engagement! Your ring is lovely and we must have better close ups of that transitional center stone...Welcome to the Old Cuts Club...Wear it in good health.
Transitional cuts can be so pretty and I am glad you had it in a ring that seems to fit the feeling of the stone. The setting is very ornate and I especially like the pave on all 3 sides. Adding pears really do create a beautiful combination!
