Ok I promised an update but I got a bit busy because I just started a new job.

I received the ring! However, I am an idiot and had to send it back to DK because I tried to hold it with some of those diamond holding tweezers in order to not get fingerprints on it; but instead...scratching it instead. :doh::wall:

Nonetheless, I have some pretty cool shots from DK and he sent me an amazing video, but I definitely don't want to upload it here in case DK Jewelry decides to upload it to their instagram.

Here are some additional CADs he sent since I last posted a CAD.

The above didn't feel right and I gave lots of notes here and there.

Here is the final CAD we landed on:

And here is the end result photos from the DK team:

And some additional shots I took on my hand:

Emily from BGD also sent me a h&a viewer along with my diamond so here are some additional fun photos that I can show you. Very difficult to take these shots and the photos don't do it justice, but still, here is a personal ASET and hearts photo.

I think this turned out really beautifully and I'm so glad that DK was patient with me with all 10 of our CADs haha. I love how dainty it looks. It's also got a slightly classic feel with a little twist which I believe my girlfriend will love.

I also put the ring on her finger while she was sleeping just to make sure it fits correctly hahahaha. Thanks everyone here that contributed, inquired, and helped out!

The diamond is beautiful! And you did an awesome job on the setting!

Amazing setting and diamond! The basket looks fantastic!

absolutely gorgeous ring!

Thank you very much, @Maisie, @molecule, @matzerang It was all DK! I'm glad he was able to understand what was in my head and was able to bring it to reality.

This is stunning, @tr0janman - wonderful job! She'll love it!

And congratulations. :))

Absolutely gorgeous!!! I love it and I’m so glad you’re happy!!

Turned out great!

I appreciate it @mrs-b, @kal2021, @rockysalamander! Very grateful for your contributions and help when I was a wee little lad who had a dream to one day make a ring. As a follow up, I'm excited to one day tell the story of how I proposed.

Again David Klass knocks it out of the park.. this setting is really perfect and I wonder how many cushion lovers will 'borrow' it.. congratulations!!!!!

@Tekate Right!? DK is legit. Haha anyone is welcome to "borrow" and I hope someone is able to improve upon it more! Good designers copy and great designers steal :)

@tr0janman such an awesome update! The finished ring is absolutely gorgeous! :love: Great job on testing it on her finger when she was sleeping :D

Can’t wait for more pics after the proposal!

she was probably "fake sleeping" and secretly screaming inside wanting to look at it...

@SimoneDi @ringo865 hahahaha seriously! If I know my gf well enough, I'm pretty sure she was sleeping since I know her breathing when she's asleep, but I guess we'll find out when I finally propose :)

Wow @tr0janman, you did a killer job! The attention to detail is off the charts but most importantly by working with DK you were really able to knock this one out of the park!

Such a beautiful and eloquent ring and stone. You did very well and I cannot wait to hear your proposal story. But honestly when she sees her rock she's gonna be butter in your hands, lol.

Best wishes with it all. :cool2:

I LOVE it!!! Love the basket and also the prongs- also it looks nice and square from the top, the design definitely didn’t round out the cushion. So pretty!
