Reset - Before and After Photos

[LD]

Ages ago I bought a 1ct IF irradiated yellow diamond, emerald cut and had it set with a trilliant on either side. Unfortunately I''ve never worn it because it always looked too small on my hand. Soooooooo, I bought some white diamond emerald cuts from Ebay(!), that are nice and white but do have inclusions. I''ve had them set into the ring and the whole remake has cost $275! I''ve now got a ring I''ll wear and can live with the inclusions in the diamonds until I have a bit more money to buy better ones!

Here are before and after shots ............

I love three stone emeralds- nice change up with a yellow center, though! Beautiful!!

 

[Circe]

What a difference! I love that you kept the trillions to make a 5 stone - it tapers beautifully, and looks wonderfully balanced. Awesome!

Thank you everybody. I''m much happier with the ring''s size now and feel it''s more balanced than before on my finger. Mind you, I''m sure the trilliants have shrunk in the wash, they look tiny now and they''re the same ones!!!!

Ditto, Beaglemom! I can even see a hint of green in your center stone. The color looks richer and more intense somehow. WELL DONE!!!
