OMG I am LOVING all these ovals! Is it just me or do they all look SO much larger than their carat weight?? Or is it that most of these girls have TEENY finger sizes (green monster peeking out!)?

I have HUGE fingers for PS (size 7). I love love love the spread that an oval will give you, though. It is one of the reasons I went with this shape over a cushioin.

And what''s nice about ovals is they look great in all sizes. Small oval? Lovely! Huge oval? Elegant! Try that with a RB...they can look like headlights or doorknobs. Small cushions (while I love em) often can look like wonky RBs.

I didn''t like ovals about a month ago but because of my pad, I am totally digging them and falling for them for sure. They make my fat fingers look better!!

I found PS when I was searching for info on ovals, and your ring came up in my searches. I love everything about your ring, and when I went to my jeweler, I had your ring etched into my mind. When she showed me the kite setting it was perfect! I love oval 3 stones--there is something so complete about them. Half moons, kites, bullets--so many options for an oval! They also look great haloed, ew, solitaire--just cool. (and the spread!....)

heehee so true! They do look elegant in many sizes. I love the shape of your pad with the color--very graceful--like a richly colored ballet slipper--so dang pretty T-GaR!

Hahaha, go-mah-wuh Coati! (Do you know any Korean? That was "thanks" in Korean). And you summed it up perfectly...now that I think about it, it really does remind me of a ballet slipper. You''re a wordsmith!

Aigoo! I wish I knew more Korean, but I only know basics--enough to be able to communicate with my Korean Grandmother who lived with us before she passed away. Miss my Hal-muh-nee...

Trinity I love your ring! It looks like the ones that I''ve been trying on.

I''ve noticed in a couple of the oval threads that Jonathon at GOG was picked to source the stone. Out of curiosity, why the correlation between GOG and ovals?

Mine is in my avatar. I don''t have any pics on my work computer. I''m sure if you searched for "Hudson Oval" you''d find thread after thread (I like to talk about myself a lot).

I just LOVE this thread!!!! Ovals seem so rare to me. I hardly see them in person, and they''re not very common on PS. I really, really want one, now!

OK, this isn''t mine (not yet anyway-hee-hee) but I just spotted this McTeigue and McClelland design for my future oval.

Wow. When I went engagement ring shopping I had my likes and dislikes all figured out. I wasn''t an oval fan... but then this thread happened! All the rings in here are just GORGEOUS!!

Before pricescope I wasn''t a cushion, pear, marquise, or princess fan either. Now I officially love EVERY shape.

I haven''t seen as many ovals, especially not on people''s hands. I had no idea how elegant they look!!! So pretty!
