I am so thrilled to share with you the results of many hours of research spent on PS and the help you friendly folks have given. Yesterday (V-Day) my boyfriend of 2.5 years proposed with a ring crafted by James Meyer with a center stone from BGD. It is so much more beautiful than I had imagined!

I was a little worried that the ring would be more delicate than I originally wanted, but the proportions are absolutely perfect and it feels fairly substantial for such a graceful look. I was also a bit worried that the design would work great with larger stones but not with my 1/2ct. Jim assured me the it would look fine, and I trusted his skill from his other pieces I've seen here on PS.

Both Jim and Lesley and Brian were wonderful to work with; I recommend them highly.


The ring is a "baby" version of Coati's lovely ring; 18k unplated white gold with platinum bezel and side wraps. For reference, my ring size is 6.5.

Center diamond: BG Signature H&A .488 H VS1, AGS000.

Congratulations!! It is absolutely beautiful!! Aren''t Jim''s pieces amazing? I just love it!!
 
It looks perfect on your hand!
 
Sarah, lknvrb4, Rock, innerkitten: Thanks so much for the kind words!

Uppy: They are amazing; so much more impressive in person (which seems impossible, given how taken I was with them only from pictures). Btw, you were spot-on about the color of the gold. It is only in certain light that I can really tell the plat from the wg and it is just lovely.
 
GORGEOUS!!!! It looks perfect on your hand and the proportions are amazing! I love it in this size!!!
 
Very pretty, the diamond looks wonderful in that setting. He was right, it's definitely not too small.
 
Lovely ring! I have wondered what this setting would look like with different sized diamonds.. yours looks perfect! Congrats on the engagement.
 
Stunning!
