I'm thinking about resetting the diamond from my engagement ring to the ex...Long story (aren't they all), but I bought the flipping thing to begin with (should have known...) and it's really a beautiful Victorian mine cut diamond, so why shouldn't it enjoy a new life as I'm very much enjoying *my* new life?!

So, my fiance and I talked about it - he's fine with my doing it as long as it doesn't look engagementy, so I'm debating having it set into a right-hand ring. I can't find the paperwork for it, but it's around 85 points (can't remember if that includes the small side diamonds or not), and I'm thinking about a halo, but I'd like to find one with colored gemstones around the edge rather than more diamonds. Does anyone know where I could find a setting for that, or would it need to be custom? I don't really have a huge preference for which gemstone - I love all green, and ruby's my birthstone, so one of those might be fun.

Anyway thanks for any help - I look forward to learning a lot here!
 
This is of course just my opinion but...given that it''s the stone from an ering from a previous relationship, I''d make it into a solitaire pendant...There''s an OEC pendant that Metro just made up on the SMTR forum...check it out! That way, it''s no longer a ring, you know?
 
Yanno, that''s a really good point! I''d love to go see that setting - but don''t know the abbreviations yet...I''ll go see if I can figure it out!
 
Here''s the link to Metro''s super-cute OEC bezel pendant.

I agree with Surf, because it was an engagement ring, I wouldn''t make it into another ring. I would definitely do a pendant. And, it should be a decent sized one at that!

well now darling - whatever it is you choose to do with it, you gotta put up a picture or two of it so we can fawn over it before you turn it into another piece of jewelry. Especially if it''s an OMC!!
 
+1 tberube!!
