I finally took the leap and had my engagement ring reset! I a princess diamond in a trellis setting, the diamond was amazing but the craftsmanship was not. I felt it was slightly uneven and wasn''t polished well. I wanted to be 100% satisfied with the setting and felt that this gorgeous diamond deserved a perfect setting. After seeing soooooooooo many BGD rings, earrings, necklaces and their incredible attention to detail, I knew I would have them reset the ring.

The ring will be shipping today and in my hands tomorrow and I cannot wait!!

Here are some pictures of the wax and my old setting side by side, courtesy of Lesley.

The curved shoulders really do look nicer to me, though the other way is not bad. I looked for a long time for "swooping" shoulders. So glad I finally found them.

Thanks everyone! I agree, I always hear about how amazing Lesley and Brian are and I cannot agree more. Lesley is also so fast to reply (and patient) with all my emails. She is amazing! She said pictures will be coming soon!

Laila, I''m not sure who did the old setting. I don''t think it''s branded or anything, I just know I wasn''t completely happy with it.

Wow, that is quite different from the original setting. Your diamond is going to look so much better in this perfect setting! Congrats.

The new pair! I sent in my Facets wedding band to BGD so they could match up the roundness of the bands. They are a perfect match!
