Only seen the Idealscope & the wax and am WEEEEEEPING. Breathtaking. More!

 

[Kaleigh]

It''s a wow. Love the wax.

 

[emeraldgreen]

i must give a shout out to Storm for checking stuff out as i was going through various channels looking. this site has been a great reference source. i just hope the wax turns out as great as i want it to.

shank thickness is 2mm, 16 c 1.7mm aca melee diamonds in the shank and 12 x 1.1mm aca melee diamonds in the head...platinum setting.

i don''t have any other pics to share yet

hopefully early next week i will.

Wow. Wow. What a spectacular ring. Are the side stones also asscher or square shape? In the wax it appears they will be. Details, details.

The top image you posted didn''t load...if that answered my question, forgive me. I couldn''t wait to reply. I haven''t learned much about the asscher stone, but that one looks incrediibly drool worthy. The whole ring is going to be just fabulous. I love how the cathedral "wings" flow upward. What is the shank width?

Oh when is it "UPCOMING"? More more more...

[emeraldgreen]

hopefully mon, tues or wed of next week. we''ll see.

 

[Kaleigh]

Are the stones in the shank going to be asschers as well?? Can''t wait to see this ring. I bet you are sooo excited.

 

[emeraldgreen]

i don''t think so...haha...i can''t even remember...trying to come close to something like this:

 

[emeraldgreen]

2x post...oops.

 

[blueroses]

Oh, I''m DYING here--can''t see those 1st 3 pics (stone, IS, wax) and I can tell it''s right up my alley!! Can anyone re-post?

 

[emeraldgreen]

if someone can pm me their email addy, i can send the three...not sure why they are not working???

 

[curlygirl]

Oh no, I can''t see them either.

 

[Kaleigh]

Funny, I can see them???

 

[blueroses]

EG, I just PMd you!!

 

[orbaya]

Wahhhh! I can''t see them!

 

[jcrow]

i saw them right when u posted them each time. now they''re gone

 

[blueroses]

OHMYGOSH OHMYGOSH, here they are and they''re STUNNING!!!!! This is going in my favorites....I think it will look a bit like the Daniel K rosebud?

 

[blueroses]

And the IS (wiping drool)

 

[blueroses]

And the Wax!!!

HOLY MOTHER!!

 

[emeraldgreen]

thanks for posting the picks blueroses!

i just looked at that daniel k....the settings are similar. no channel setting...i am going for pave. i am no expert though. the melee go down the band, and will sit below the head, and then there will be another string of the melee going across the head near where the diamond sits. the setting for the head is a little more open.

 

[emeraldgreen]

and one last piece of info...her ring size is 4.5. so i am hoping this really pops!

 

[blueroses]

A 4.5 ring w/ a 1.51 6mm+ asscher and blingy setting??!! Ummm...Yeah, it is going to POP!!!!

In case people couldn''t see the other pic EG posted, here is the setting (with an EC) that was the inspiration for his ring:

 

[curlygirl]

Oh wow!!! It''s going to be GORGEOUS!!!!! Can''t wait to see the finished product!

 

[Kaleigh]

Oh wow, I''m in heaven!!! That will be absolutely gorgeous!!!

 

[ello]

It’s stunning! Can’t wait to see the finished ring – it’s going to be beautiful. I love the diamond, I cannot stop staring at it!

 

[Shay37]

Wow, just Wow.

shay

 

[decodelighted]

Truly I''m getting a little emotional. The inspiration is so lovely & THAT STONE. I can''t say enough about it. Which vendor found that beauty, I''m dying!! Can you tell us anything else about the search? Where you found the inspiration pix? There is a whole story here we MISSED somehow!! And the ending''s looking pretty "fairy tale" to me ...

 

[appletini]

That is a very YUMMY asscher!!! I can''t wait to see the finished product, she is going to love it!

 

[emeraldgreen]

i perused a ton of the asscher threads on here and started going through a family friend....but it is just very very very difficult to find these stones through one person. so, i opted for online then. way too many of the diamonds i was seeing didn't have the nice clipped corners, coupled with the wide windmills flowing to the clipped corners....and then just to get that w/ a nice pattern is even more difficult. i ended up going to whiteflash's sight on a whim and saw that they had two very nice stones by the #'s (nice depth, nice table). so, i asked about those two...and one was gone...and this was the other. i could have gone for a smaller girdle...but i think it is fine. sarin and lightscope came back looking good...so here we are today. storm was a great help during the process (that is an understatement actually).

i'll get into the inspiration setting later on...can't give it all away at once . plus...i hope she doesn swing by here. haha. she knows it is coming soon....although, i bet half of her right at this moment, thinks it never will. haha.

 

[Kaleigh]

Storm deserves a round of applause for helping so many of us!!!

Can''t wait to hear more about the setting.
