Thank you! I think I love it more bc it took me so long to find something like it. It’s funny but I had it shipped to my sister in London, who then gave it to her MIL, who flew to Upstate NY on Wednesday and mailed it out to me.
And somehow I still received it today after just two days.
I will treasure it forever.
And the best thing is I got it for 55% off the retail price!!!

That's great! It is a unique piece and just gorgeous! So happy for you to find something you've been looking - a long search for sure!

I am situating myself in here for a bit, and I am SO EXCITED! :appl: All year, I've been saving for a starter ACA - something I can upgrade a bit at a time, but something that is still a good size on my finger -- and something that is FIERY! I found this perfect K color stone:

https://www.whiteflash.com/loose-diamonds/round-cut-loose-diamond-4118767.htm

My ring is officially IN PROCESS! With a ship date of July 3! :dance: It's a right hand ring, but, I am a sucker for a solitaire, so it's going in the Whiteflash classic 6 prong setting in platinum.

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little nervous about the color, but I have seen other K stones in person, and I'm fine with them. (Apparently, I am blind as a bat when it comes to tint.) And I LOVE my J BGD pendant and studs so much.

I can't wait to get it on my finger! Thank y'all for waiting with me! :love:


Ooooh this is so exciting! I can’t wait to see it! Yay!

@VieEffects holy crap that is STUNNING!

@kayla17 I’m so happy for you! I know you regretted returning the other bracelet, but I really like the accent diamonds on this one!

@Luvallgems thank you! I can’t wait to get her.

This custom thing is a roller-coaster!! Didn't hear anything from my jeweller on Friday, even had a wee blub in the car on the way home from work and spent today felling a little down thinking I'd now have to wait 6 weeks for him to get back from his holiday. But then tonight he txt me saying he was almost done and I'll have it at the latest on Tuesday!! Emotional doesn't describe the half of it.

How do you all cope with custom makes??? My heart has been thumping for a week now and yesterday I had to focus hard not to lose the plot!

I have finally received my ring. I couldn't have been more excited! Picture does not do justice. I'm so grateful for a community like PS, I have learned so much browsing over countless pages on the forum. I couldn't have chosen an ACA if it hadn't been for PS!

This is adorable! I love butterflies, dragonflies, ladybugs and beautiful little creatures like these.

I got the ruby, diamond, and platinum Deco ring from the SF GTG. :D They’re closed until after the 4th, hence the post here.

OMG that ring is amazing! Art Deco is my absolute favorite era/style. You are never going to stop looking at your hand when you are wearing that baby! (I wouldn't!)

I received the video of my diamond from CBI/HPD! Of course this makes waiting even more difficult.


I still haven't finalized the setting design. I'll feel so much better when it is signed off on and in production.

I received the ring today..It’s very sweet but really tiny! No way is it a .40-.50..I already love her so I won’t do anything about it. The seller doesn’t take returns but I wouldn’t send her back anyway. She is definitely a bitty stacking ring. The engraving goes all the way along the bottom with a date so sizing it will be a challenge and will separate the date. I’ll send it to David. The diamond is so sweet. I’m naming her Julia in honor of her former owner..:love:

I’m in the two week club now as well!
My 1.76ct. CBI will be set into Sholdt's R685, part of their 1935 collection. The ring was designed by Sholdt back in 1935, and the setting was tucked away in their safe until only recently.

I wanted something low and comfortable with no knife edge. Melissa found this setting for me on their Instagram page.

Here’s a couple of still shots from Sholdt’s video on instagram. This is not my ring, it’s just to show the setting.

I really love your setting! Looks low and comfortable and I think a wedding band would fit flush? I can't wait to see your ring!!!

Ring is done! She should be shipping so it arrives in Thursday! Caysie said she would send other pictures- very rainy day when she took these.
