Very sad. I hope one of you got it and will post MANY pics.

I've been stalking one of the chunky cushions at GOG for weeks and weeks as a PhD gift to myself. Today, I found that it had disappeared from the site.

If one of you got the ~1.52 N SI2 chunky cushion, please post MANY pics. I'd love to see it.

Karee -- first, congratulations on your Ph.D.! Second, I''m sorry the cushion you wanted has disappeared from the site, but did you e-mail GOG about the stone? Perhaps it''s just on hold.

Ditto.

Another thought, call GOG and get on the waiting list with your specs. That way, this won''t happen again.

 

[karee888]

Thanks ladies. I am on the waiting list.

Thritto on the congrats!!! And the planned stone!!!

 

[Diamondbug]

Firstly, congrats on your PHD...what a great accomplishment

Secondly,

I am the culprit that got the cushion.... I was waiting to post about it after it arrives. I am so sorry, I know how you feel cause I''ve been there, I was eyeing the 1.64 L and it went home with someone else. So I bought another cushion (not a GOG sig chunky) that didn''t work out for me so when I saw the 1.52 N, my husband made me put it on hold while waiting for Jonathan to make me a video showing me the color difference to an I since I have never seen an N. After watching the clip, we are getting the N

but I am sure there will be a cushion with your name on it soon!! I will post lots of photos when I get it but I''m warning you, my photography skill sucks!

 

[Lynn B]

Wow, it''s a small world on PS!

Congrats, karee, on your PhD! I can understand your feelings... but your meant-to-be diamond will happen for you, I am sure of it!

And DiamondBug, ooooh! Can''t wait to see that beauty!

How are you going to set it?!

 

[Diamondbug]

Hi Lynn,

I can''t wait for it too..... I am super excited. For now it is going into this setting

http://shop.goodoldgold.com/index.cfm/a/catalog.prodshow/vid/46574/catid/170

in platinum that I had gotten for the previous cushion. I love the setting since it is so petite and feminine but will see how the cushion looks in platinum. I am now searching the boards for inspirations!! Shopping is such hard work but someone has to do it!!

 

[PrettyBlues]

Diamondbug, we are going to be ring twins

Well, more like sisters maybe, and I will be the little one.

I have purchased the 1.3 K SI1, and am getting it put in that setting as well. I hope to have it in the next few weeks, as I''ve been waiting (very patiently!) to get my ring since March.

I haven''t seen the setting in person, but the pictures look great. Hopefully I will love it.

Karee, you will get your beautiful cushion as well - I also stalked one diamond that ended up sold before I could purchase it, but I know I will love the one I ended up getting.

 

[MakingTheGrade]

Aww, I''m sorry Karee, but I''m sure you''ll find something else that''s perfect!

 

[Diamondbug]

PrettyBlues, my not so little ring sister, I think you will love the setting. It is thin and delicate that it turns any stone into a boulder. I absolutely love it, just not sure about the platinum and N color. Please post photos when you get it, I can drool over yours while waiting for mine.

 

[karee888]

thanks for the kind words, all!

i''m glad you got it. i''ve been saving for it but i guess it wasn''t meant to be. so, hopefully they will have something else for me.

i hope you love it...but if you don''t, i hope i am the first to know, lol

i can''t wait to see pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[PrettyBlues]

Diamondbug, glad to hear you love the setting. I will definitely post lots of pics when the ring comes in!

 

[Diamondbug]

Karee, you will definitely be the first to know if it doesn''t work out, I will send out an SOS but I have a feeling it will be love at first sight. I am sure that you will find the "one". Jonathan is great to work with and he will have one that is perfect for you. I will keep an eye out for your cushion post!!

 

[LGK]

Lol, I''m personally incredibly grateful you bought it. I had some "fun money" burning a hole in my paypal account that reaaallllly wanted me to spend it on that cushion! But, a girl can only wear so many rings and I really knew I shouldn''t. Didn''t stop me from nearly going for it a few times though!

You *must* post pics. I''m sure it''s gorgeous! I adore M/N colors. I have one of each (e-ring & RHR, see why I didn''t need another!?) and I love that color range. Soft antique white, so pretty!

 

[Diamondbug]

LittleGreyKitten, I am glad to be of service. Though I have to say, a girl can never have too many rings! Thank you so much for the 411 on the color. I have never seen an N IRL so I was a little hesitant but I think the antique look of the OMC just lends itself to the warmer colors. Do you have photos of you M/N rings? Would love to see it. BTW, now that I have rescued your fun money from the cushion, what are you going to spend it on? Need any help?

 

[Ashleigh]

Karee, congrats on your PhD.

After losing out on a stone once from GOG, I''ve now learnt to put it on hold if I''m really interested in it. Glad to know you''re now on the waiting list.

 

[joelly]

Karee, congrats on your PhD!!! What an accomplishment!!!

I hope you find another GOG cushion soon.
