I am glad you worked something else out it was starting to feel like too much of trying to make it work. Looking forward to the OMC!I decided to ask Alex if he'd allow me to exchange for another stone. He graciously agreed, with no hesitation.
I decided to go with a 2.54 q-r OMC he posted. I loved it and that's more my speed. I have been wanting to make a larger target ring with an emerald or ruby halo, so I think I will do that.
If anyone liked this stone- it is a very pretty marquise cut, and a nice size, he will have it back shortly and it will be available again.
It also made me a bit worried about my own marquise ring that’s on its way... really unsure how it would look on my hand!
