Setting number...oh, who's keeping track? LM MRB with Pears!

[Demelza]

My Leon is finished and I have a few pictures to share!

First, I must thank you all for your help, both on and offline. Most notably, DS, MGR, Dreamer, KSmom, and Tweeter -- I so appreciate your valuable input!

I know Leon isn't a popular person around here these days, but I am blown away by his craftsmanship. And the customer service I received was top notch. I know others haven't been as fortunate, but I'm very pleased I got this particular ring from him because it has been one of my favorites ever since Kristydarling posted hers.

Stats: 2.37 ct MRB (G, VS2) with .90 cttw pears (H, VS)

Sorry for the iphone pics!

Another great 3 stone RB w/ pears!

Will this be a RHR for you or will you alternate w/ your other solitaire?

Is this what they call perfectly proportioned? It's pretty amazing!! From far away, it looks like one big diamond, right? Congratulations!!!

You already know this, but I LOVE your ring!!!! My favorite non-solitaire setting for a mrb!!! Gorgeous!

(Oh, and I hope this is a forever setting, but if not, I call dibs on this one! lol! Other than I am about to be broke with our last child starting college next year! )

04diamond and nomissjane -- Thanks!

mom2boys -- I don't really wear RHRs, so I will alternate it with my other rings and bands on my left hand.

Missy -- Thanks! That's a big compliment coming from you. Your OEC is one of my favorite rings EVER!

A few more pictures. Nothing terribly interesting, but without any sun, it's a bit hard to really get the really good shots.

Yep, still gorgeous. This ring has convinced me that I have this setting with a colored stone someday...
