Rubymal, I’ve been following your diamond search since you posted on the lab created forum. This is a beautiful diamond, I’m so happy for you! Will you post a follow up once it’s set into your ring?
Oh absolutely! I am sending out my setting and new stone today to WF to get mounted. I actually just made a new thread today because my setting got slightly damaged during the removal yesterday. Sigh. :(

You guys, I'm so happy with the 1.3 ACA!! It is absolutely gorgeous in person and such a sparkler. I could literally see the light reflecting from it when we put it under the light. Here's a pic of it next to the windows natural light compared to my little milky.

oh no! I'm so sorry to hear about the damage! But so thrilled that WF will get the stone and mounting and can work their magic :)

Can't wait to see the finished product! What are you going to do with your old diamond?

Well, I originally reached out to Mondiao for a custom estimate on how much I could get if I sold it through them. The estimate wasn't too bad, but it still meant that we would most likely be out at least a couple thousand dollars. I know it's silly to want to get near break-even but it just didn't seem worth it to me. The original stone is still quite beautiful in low light when viewed in person.

I told my fiance that we could just hang onto it for now, and maybe for our wedding anniversary we could see about getting a necklace/pendant type deal made so I could wear it around my neck. Then I said if we ever have a son and he needs a diamond, well momma's got one right here that's free ;)2

I love the idea of making a pendant out of it :)

Comparison with the previous rock.

Granted, the old rock wasn't just cleaned in this photo, but this is pretty much what it looked like most of the time!
