Hi,
I love the setting, it looks like the set I have on my original e-ring.
I also love that you set the oval differently. She will definitely love this ring!

OK, that is just totally drop-dead gorgeous, and unique. She is going to pass out, so just be sure to hold onto her when you propose or she might fall out of the carriage!

Thank you all for your kind words. I am very excited about presenting this ring to my fiancé. For those of you who asked, I purchased the diamond and the setting at Bentley Diamond Importers down at the Jersey shore. They had a huge selection of loose diamonds and more ovals than I could ever had hoped for. They were very accommodating and did not try to talk me into something I did not want.

I had tried a few places in the NYC diamond district, and I am sure that I could have found something lovely up there as well, but many of the dealers I dealt with had few ovals to show me or ones that were out of my price range. (I had a budget of 5K for the diamond and setting, which I could not exceed).

The people at Bentley were very helpful and I did not feel pressured at all. My experience there was so nice that I will be going back with my Fiancé to pick out wedding bands (assuming she says yes!) I will post hand pics after the proposal next Tuesday. Thanks again for checking out the pictures!!!!

i absolutely love this ring

love love love the east to west set oval and that setting to die for! way to go, you did awesome, she will love it

can''t wait to hear proposal details and see hand pics!

 

[Dodger Gurl]

Wow! Love the east-west idea! It''s gorgeous! What a lucky lady!

 

[Daniela]

Sooo pretty and so original! Just lovely. I, too, am a real fan of ovals. I got talked out of one because of all of the Pricescope talk about the light return of a hearts and arrows round. Your oval really makes a case for beautiful ovals everywhere, though!

Hmmm, I think I need another diamond.
