I just want to say thank you to everyone that helped me in purchasing a wonderful diamond. I ended up going with this stone:
https://www.whiteflash.com/hearts_arrows/A-Cut-Above-H-A-cut-diamond-1466923.htm#

Whiteflash was top notch. They were quick to respond to questions both on the phone and via email. I have worked with several vendors over the years and Whiteflash should be very proud of the quality of their products and overall customer support. I plan on doing alot of future business with this company and highly recommend them to anyone! Lesley, thank you for fielding numerous questions and always responding with a smile :)

For insurance purposes, I ended up going with an independent appraisal. I met with Richard Sherwood of Sarasota Gemological Lab and was very impressed. For starters, his office is very nice! He has top of the line equipment to go along with his professional and comforting demeanor. He spent extra time to teach me about diamonds and really went out of his way to answer all of my questions. He was honest in his assessments and provided unbiased professoinal opinions. he was readily available via email and telephone. I have since shipped other diamonds to him for appraisal and will have him look at the Ering diamond again once it is set. Here is his website : http://www.sarasotagemlab.com/


I share this info because it is really hard to find honest people who provide great products and customer service. Thanks again to everyone that helped and I look forward to posting pictures of the Ering in the next week or so. Happy Holidays

Thank you for the nice comments! It will be a Jeff Cooper ring setting. A simple, traditional style ring that places focus on the center stone with .44 channel set rounds :) Pics to come
