I hope they don''t kick me off for putting up too many photos!

 

[FacetFire]

I''ve never been able to catch fire in photos as easily as I can with this stone...it''s crazy...he did SUCH an amazing job picking it out!

 

[ello]

Thank you for the lovely pics. PLEASE POST MORE if possible.

It''s truly a magnificent diamond and setting. I wish I could see it in person....drool!

 

[FacetFire]

Yowza!

 

[FacetFire]

I am so impressed by the finish that Michael Bondanza puts on his platinum...

Sorry for the little specs of lint on the stone, I don''t have a very good cloth for cleaning.

 

[FacetFire]

More fire...or is it ice?!?!?

[FacetFire]

Gosh, I just love this ring!!!

 

[FacetFire]

Okay, we''re nearing the end of the pics...

 

[FacetFire]

Last one...I hope you enjoyed them!

I just love this stone so much. It has so much personality! You lucky, lucky thing.

 

[sunkist]

Oh my gosh!! It''s gorgeous! I love the band of diamond on the sides and the center stone is gorgeous! That purple leaf is making amazing colors come out in it too

 

[lili]

WOW! Look at the explosion of colors out of that ring.
I had to come back to ogle at it some more

Awesome pictures.
Thanks for the firework show

 

[piccolascimmia]

OMG, those chunky facets and blazing color are amazing! I don''t tend to get excited by rounds, but this one has changed my mind! You''re so lucky to be able to stare at it all day! Congratulations!

 

[FacetFire]

Thanks, guys! I hope I didn''t go overboard with the pics. It just amazes me what you see in a diamond when you use macro photography! I have learned to appreciate diamonds so much more as a result of the close-up photos. Now, I just need to pick one to use as my avatar...

 

[Small]

Your ring is absolutely beautiful

I agree with Mara...no bands needed...that beauty commands attention all on its own. Congrats

FacetFire,
You can't go wrong with any of those pictures.
My personal favorite is the first picture since you can see those fabulous chunky facets so well.
Oh no, it's the one with the explosive bursts of colors.
Aye, just cycle through all those pictures for your avatar

 

[Morticia]

That is one of the most beautiful rings I''ve ever seen. Love the stone, love the setting. Everything!

Congratulations on your engagement and your gorgeous ring.

Okay, I know Widget just hyperventilated and fainted into her keyboard crashing her harddrive over those pics.

WIDGET, WIDGET, are you okay?

Honestly, that has to be one of the most stunning, beautiful, amazing rings I have ever seen. That OEC is to die for. Congrats. Your honey did good.

Thanks! I brought that idea up with my finace, and he firmly shot it down...he''s very traditional. I really want a WB too, but I''m not sure what kind I''m going to be able to get that won''t cover up those little pave side stones and won''t risk being damaged by them either. Oh well, I have plenty of time to try them on and figure that one out!

 

[Morticia]

FacetFire, you could get a really really thin WB, like the Ritani Endless Love. They are soooooooooooo thin. No way they would interfere with your e-ring.

I am so in love with your ring! It's GORGEOUS.

Another option would be to wear a wedding band on your other hand. My ring is a split shank and it''s sort of a stand alone ring, wedding bands look funny with it. But, my fi still wants me to look married after the wedding. If I wear something on my other hand I''ll have a lot more options and I can get creative with bands, wear an eternity band one day, a plain one the next, a rhr, etc.

WOW! Your ring is Gorgeous!!!!!! It is an absolutely beautiful ring. I love the OEC too! Love the chunky facet…

Congratulations!
