wanna see some pave? my new rings are here!!

[dani13]

OMG, Sara- they are so beautiful!

Congrats and enjoy them. I am new here too, and definitely want something similar. I will be PMing you too for more info, just like Ginger!

 

[luvmysparklies]

Just beautiful! Even though you don''t have the claw prongs, so to speak, the prongs still are very well done

Not too chunky and nice and even. I love your set!
Luv

 

[Morticia]

So beautiful!!

 

[Alice in DiamondLand]

lovely! Your ring is gorgeous, and as a set it looks fabulous. At one time i had thought that a wedding band would detract from a rad ering, but yours really shows how beautiful and complete it looks.

What are the specs on that stone? Very pretty. It takes up lots of your finger and has the very classy bling bling affect.

 

[KBerly]

ok ok...i LOVED

your solitaire with the half-eternity w-band, but i have to say you have given your gorgeous diamond a beautiful new home

hubba! i love the RBs with pave bands and especially love those double prongs..congrats

 

[windowshopper]

holy cow---you win the prize..............ive been on pricescope for 6 months and your ring is by FAR the most gorgeous i''ve seen yet/ tell us about the stone-!!

 

[michela002]

Woooooooooooooooooow. Ohmigod.

 

[Aurora Borealis]

Look at your skating rink!

Two carats, really? That looks way bigger on your hand. And it''s so white!

 

[BABYROCKS]

once in a while i pop in to see what''s going on and i swear each time the stones get bigger and bigger and the

designs just get better and better. this ring is to die for.

congratulations, slammie!

for those who did not follow your earlier posts, could u let us know the specs of the center and side stone size. thank u.

liz

THANKS. Now I have to mop up this drool. Seriously, my mouth dropped open. That is stunning. The pave is perfect. Not too much. Not too little. Just right to showcase an awesome ring. It is stunning, really!!!

Whew. I need a cigarette.

 

[allycat0303]

Oh wow. That is soooo amazing. And you didn''t post too many pictures! Actually I would love to see the underside of the ring (basket maybe?) More closely

. So nice. And so big on your hand!

 

[fortheloveofdiamonds]

Slammie: I can''t wait to see my Michael B. Also!! Oy! Do I have to keep waiting Mr. Diamond man!!!!

 

[yanekie25]

GORGEOUS!!! I was blinded by the bling. Very nice. The set looks amazing together.

 

[icelady]

Good Grief!!! That is one gorgeous set of rings! The detail is absolutely stunning, and everything is perfect together. The main stone is quite a honker, looks even BIGGER that 2 cts!!!!

Very, very pretty! Job well done!!

 

[Diamonds4Me]

Totally drool-worthy for sure. Absolutely beautiful!! I am going to have to show this to my h2b. My little rb is all lonely..it needs some brothers and sisters too

So pretty!

 

[Gale]

WOW! I absolutely love the band of pave around the basket. Those are gorgeous Slammie!

 

[cushioncut]

That is quite a beauty! Did you give the info on that center stone anywhere? It is to die for!

I love the pave as well. Very well done!

Also, what kind of camera do you have? Those pictures are so clear, I cant believe it.

Congrats!

 

[twinkletoes]

[...] thanks for your compliments! the diamond is a 2.03 G, SI1 from Superbert cert.

Looking at the pics... it looks like either 5 carats or size 2 ring.

Perfectly done !

 

[slammie]

wow...you guys are the best!! Thanks you all for your nice comments...and i''m glad you liked the pictures. Well, first horrible day back to work after the long break and i couldn''t even log into PS today!!! So, sorry for the late reply.
Patty, my 8 stone wedding band is being resized to wear on my right hand. My husband has been so understanding through this...I feel so lucky and blessed to be with him. But you''re right Kayla, no more upgrades for me for a looooong time!! heehee. I used the pentax optio camera..it is awesome. I bought it costco because my other 4.0mpixel canon camera sucked in low light and macro shots. I never get blurry macro shots on this one..i love it!
Ally, I''ll try getting some basket close up shots this weekend, and Ginger, Dani, I''ll PM you with the info.
For those who asked for specs...
my finger size is 4.75
Superbcert round H&A
8.21 X 8.29 X 5.02
Depth: 60.8
Table: 55%
Crown angle: 34.1
Height: 14.8
Pavilion angle: 41.0
Pavilion depth: 43.2
2.03 carats, G, SI1
The pave band has 2 pointers (0.02 melees) in the band and it''s approximatley 2.3-2.4 in width (the wedding band is every so slightly thinner). The pave on the basket are pretty small, my guess is he used 1 pointers for those..total of 12 all around. There are 9 diamonds on each side of the engagement ring but I may get 2 extra put on each side. My jeweler made carvings on the side of the band...I''ve heard it being called fishtail pave.
My old setting is here (let''s see if this works...1st attempt at linking)
here
thanks again all for your kind kind comments

 

[Mara]

wow slammie i love how it looks, and that HEAD is to die for! your little hands showcase the ring and stone perfectly. Did Toppers do the head of the ring? I may have to look into that..I am dying for some claw-like prongs myself with some detail on the side, and those are pretty darn close to others I have seen. then we can be ring twins! OH except I also need the 2c stone...

 

[aljdewey]

just WOW......slammie, that is one of the most gorgeous rings I''ve been here in two plus years.

Nice, nice, job. Wear it in good health and enjoy.

 

[ninasstar]

OH MY GOD....just beautiful. What is the size of the center stone? Your ring is magnifiicent.

 

[reena]

oh, slammie. i am literally speechless. it is just STUNNING!

first of all, the setting turned out beautifully. (yay pave!) and, i have to tell you, i am literally AWED at how gorgeous your stone is. it is amazing. amazing! (and woah--it looks huge!)

i cannot find any more words! you must be just thrilled with it. don''t bump into any walls while you''re walking around staring at your hand all day long!!!!

congratulations.

PS--sorry it took me so long to comment but i have been on pricescope hiatus between having family in town for the holiday and the awful three weeks at work i''m about to embark upon . . .

 

[Jennifer5973]

I just feel compelled to reiterate my feelings about these rings--one of the most beautiful rings/sets I''ve seen here or anywhere. Fabulous, just fabulous.

don''t bump into any walls while you''re walking around staring at your hand all day long!!!!

LOL! Reena, i''ve been telling my DH to not let me do that with my new ring-to-be. I have a date. My ring will be here on December 7... Now the countdown begins!!!! Can I make it??????? OHHH the anticipation is killing me.

 

[slammie]

thanks al, mara, nina, reena!! Mara, toppers made the ring from start to finish. Funny, I thought it looked similar to yours when I held my hand out
LOL, i haven't run into any walls yet, but what's worse when my collegues catch me looking at it..like in meetings, or when my boss comes in my cube and catches me doing the QVC hand tilting

..hahaha ( i sit by a window..can't resist!!) Geez, I'm so ashamed of myself somtimes!!
Nina, it's a 2.03 G, SI1.

FLOD...ohhh...I bet you can't wait!! I mean, I can't wait for ya!!

 

[ringbling17]

I keep coming back to check out these rings again.
I absolutely love the way they came out.

Topper''s did an excellent job. The diamond and rings look gorgeous on your hand.
I did have one question, do the diamonds on the wedding band go all the way around or do they stop like the e-ring?

 

[SLH]

Slammie,

I honestly do not know what to say that has not already been said. Your ring is amazing. I love it, love it, love it. Great choice in designers.

 

[ForteKitty]

OMG, i LOVE the etching on the sides and that profile.... WOW!!! That is the most beautiful glowing diamond I''ve ever seen, and it looks amazing on your hand!!
