Presenting my beautiful engagement ring! The stone is a GIA certified 1.31 karat, VS2, H, Very good cut diamond, in a modern bezel setting. Total cost: $7,500. I am pleased with the balance of size v. quality of the diamond.
My fiancee purchased the stone and setting from James Allen, and the process was seamless. I had the modern bezel setting picked out for a long time. I love the clean lines and how it really highlights (and protects) the diamond. I was slightly apprehensive after reading reviews about James Allen's settings, but this one turned out absolutely perfectly. It is sleek, modern, and comfortable to wear. It is slightly less "bulky" in person than it appears on their website: http://www.jamesallen.com/engagement-rings/tension/18k-yellow-gold-bezel-set-princess-shaped-diamond-solitaire-ring-item-2299?gcsct=0ChMIuOL1kZXGuQIVhLrmCh2tKQAAEAQ
It took slightly less than a week from the time my fiancee placed the order for the ring to arrive. He did all of the ordering online, and did not call customer service beforehand, so I can't speak to that. They sent the ring in packaging so no one would know what it held. He was a little worried about the diamond sitting in the mailbox.
We are completely satisfied with the stone I got for the money. I know that he saved a ton by forgoing retail, which makes both of us happy
We haven't announced the engagement yet, so thank you for allowing me to spill my guts here.
