Ellen your new ring is scrumptious. I love the smooth polish of the platinum against the liquid blue of the aquamarine. You have excellent taste. I''m sure your grandmother would approve of the face lift you have given it.

Hand contorsions, just one of my many talents.

Ellen, that is simply stunning. It looks much more elegant with the new cut... and now you can always wear it and be able to fully appreciate it!

Great job!

OMG that is so beautiful - the color is incredible. No washed out aqua for you! WOW!

 

[Ellen]

I decided to try the old hand in front of the light trick, and actually got something!

Congratulations on a stunning ring. It is absolute perfection!

And WHAT an aquamarine... That color, the setting. WOW!!

Ellen,

I too, am a sentimental fool about family items (I inherited my Grandmother''s wedding ring this year!) and I have to say, you did your Gradmother proud. The only word to describe this ring is perfection.

 

[Ellen]

Tired yet??

One of my faves, and I think that may be the brick from my house reflecting in it.

Ok, since it''s an Aqua, I thought it only fitting to do a short water series.

Ellen!!!

It`s absolutely lovely!!! It certainly was worth the wait. Bet, you`re glad now that you went ahead and got it recut and set before it was too late...

Love the recut - crystal clear. (Love the fire shots too! Too cool!) And the setting suits the stone perfectly.

Enjoy!
