Hi Mrs, actually I didn''t feel comfortable with the color, not being able to see it be fore purchasing, so I went with a smaller F stone instead.

 

[Dancing Fire]

congrats,beautiful ring.

 

[canuk-gal]

Hi:

Sweeeet! She''ll love it!!

cheers--Sharon

 

[belle]

that looks gignanamous!

very nice!

 

[badger.packer.fan]

Hi Mara,

It is the petite princess. Apparently they make that and the regular princess in two different styles. The bead set like mine, or a ''V'' pave.

 

[rms]

I love your Michael B. Of course, I love all stuff by Michael B.

May I ask what made you go with the one with the smooth sides vs. the ones with the v cuts in the platinum like you mentioned? I am just curious to know really. I have seen them both and they are both fabulous!!

would also loooooovvvvveeeeee to see some side profile shots!!

congratulations!

 

[jellybean]

I love it!

I''m getting prices now on a semi-mount similar to this one. She will love it as well!

 

[hoorray]

Beautiful ring! It will look stunning on her hand, I''m sure.

 

[kanne]

Wow! Gorgeous! You did a fabulous job.

Why do you have to wait to give it too her? Something that beautiful should be on her finger. Diamonds need light to sparkle!

 

[KBerly]

just beautiful!

 

[LaurenThePartier]

Can someone attach the picture so I can see it, please?

 

[hopefulheidi]

I second that Lauren

Thanks rms I went with the smooth one mainly because that''s the one we were able to try on, as the v cut petite princess wasn''t in the store when we were there. I personally thought that all the v cuts gave the band a ''busy'' look to it when viewed from the profile. I saw the Pearlman''s picture and it did look quite nice, but I thought the v''s were a little more subtle than they actually are. They are quite pronounced in the profile, and I guess I like the sleek look myself.

 

[Ivy]

It''s really beautiful. I know she''ll just love it.

Can you post some side shots?

Oh, and don''t forget the hand shots once she has it.
