I am so happy I stumbled upon Pricescope all these months ago! I''ve learned so much about diamond quality and diamond care and was able to educate (prod...) my amazing but clueless BF on the ins and outs of the e-ring buying process. I guarantee that my ring would be half as nice as what we ended up with if not for PS. Thank you, Pricescope experts!!!

I''ve been lurking for a long time and only officially joined a few weeks back. I never dreamed I''d be getting my ring so soon, but DBF (now fiance!!!) managed to surprise me...even though I had more or less picked out all the components of the ring! We chose Whiteflash for the center stone, but I had fallen in love with a setting from a designer in NYC. My boy wanted to produce the whole thing at WF; I was hesitant and concerned that the design wouldn''t live up to what I had set my mind and heart on. I was silly to question!! My DBF moved forward with having WF custom design a setting like the one I wanted -- and it is perfect! I can''t imagine having anything else. The ACA diamonds in the melee portion of my setting enhance my center stone and I love seeing all the arrows in those tiny sparklers!! I could only get that from our friends at Whiteflash.

We got engaged over Valentine''s Day while on a surprise ski trip to Colorado. Just me, the softly falling snow, the love of my life, and my gorgeous ring!!

STATS:
0.94 I VVS2 RB from Whiteflash''s Expert Selection
AGS Cert
Setting is 0.75 ctw in ACA melee, all F/G VS, in platinum


It''s not huge like some of the wild ones we see so often on PS, but it''s all MINE! And I love it.

Congratulations on your engagement! Your ring is truly one of the nicest designs I''ve seen in a very long time...It does evoke an air of antique, which I adore. The lines, the size, the way the halo is done, it''s just fantastic. I can see why you''re so thrilled with it. Wear it in good health and happiness!

Thank you nclrgirl, cnkav, chiapet, and cocosgirl!! Y''all are sweet to comment.

Chia: it''s "inspired" by a setting from Saturn Jewels. Their website doesn''t have many pictures of their AMAZING designs, but the one like mine is featured there. I love that it''s a vintage-style -- definitely "me."

Surfgirl, you have made my night!!! The pix of your ring -- including that one in your avatar -- have been some of my absolute favorites since I started hanging around PS. THANK YOU for the compliment on my own antique-y ring!!!

Congrats!

You, your fiance and WF did an excellent job. I really like the design (I thought it might be a Beverly K at first glance)... I love the halo- kinda like flower petals. It has a nice flow to it as well. It looks like a substantial ring while remaining feminine... very unique. I LOVE it!
