Here is the charm bracelet with a Heart shape Diamond charm weighing 1.51 cts.(F-VS2). The RB''s are about 75 pts each.

Adoreable!

 

[Fly Girl]

Thank you so much!!!

I like the RA (as if we get to vote

)

 

[LadyAmythyst69]

I like the white Kaufman diamond. The setting is classic & timeless but still has interest to it. Plus it looked good on your hand!!

That color is to DIE for!!!! Did they say you can wear tourmaline as an everyday e-ring? or too soft???

It is 7-7.5 on the mohs. I would not wear it for an every day ring.

29.?? D FL cushion cut - I don''t have the cert on this one - I''ll have to have them fax it. DH thinks it is too big for my hand. I''m not so sure!

Holy diamond batman!

Yeah - it IS big. But the stone itself is gorgeous!!
