Weeee! Looking forward to seeing what you do with this lovely!

It's going to be a tiny 3 stone. 2 x 1/4 ct sides, 1.144 ctw. Weeny - but perfect. All E colored VS stones. All AVRs. In platinum.

I'll wear it with a platinum band - probably my Tiffany legacy. Or my engraved 3mm band. One of those.

I've wanted something small for ages, as I think the smaller rings look so elegant. I ended up haloing my 4.01ct ACA, so it will be...sizeable. So I wanted something little and casual.

:eek2::eek2::eek2: Do tell more......:halo:

Lol - I don't have it yet - by the end of next week, apparently. :)

I also have some new, hand made gold hoops and a BEAUTIFUL diamond pin that I haven't added to my thread yet. I kinda ran out of steam. I'll probably add them all together when the ring comes. :)

I got this cute bow necklace with a couple of diamonds and a ruby last week at a fun shop in east Texas. I also just got 5- 0.3 ct each J-VS2 ACAs! Pretty excited about a 5 stone ring that will be made by DK.

You did WHAT? I WANT TO KNOW MORE! OMG, I can not wait to see this!!!

(I may have a glass of wine in me, making me extra dramatic)

I'm on the fence about haloing my 2.93... that sucker shrunk

I'm with @nala - do it!

I did a really tiny halo - 2/3 pt stones, I think. I just wanted to protect the center stone. The overall width is now 12.5mm - about the size of a 5 ct ring, which my finger can easily carry. So I'm probably right where I need to be.

It's going to be amazing! I can't wait to see it. If I halo, it would have to be small/subtle diamonds too. I just don't know if I'm even a halo girl

Weeeee!!!! So exciting about you aca!!! And also this delicate ring will be something (else) I covet. I, too, agree on the elegance of the smaller rings.

I got these two dainty diamond bands (estate pieces) today and I love them!

I pair the top one with Eleanor and it fits perfect, even height wise! (Of course I am still waiting on Caysie to finish up my Millie band.)

Oh, and the wider of the two goes nicely with my original engagement diamond reset and my Tiffany band. SCORE!!

No. There is a smallish local jeweler who has two locations in my area. They have a section dedicated to vintage and estate pieces. I found these there. Before today, the only band I had was the Tiffany band in that last picture. I’ve wanted a small diamond band for awhile now. I really liked both and couldn’t choose, so....;)2

I’d love a shopping buddy! C’mon over!

I recently bought these Roberto Coin earrings and LOVE them! They were an etsy steal.They are 18k rose gold but the gold color is close enough to look great with my Satin finish CvB Astrid pendant and bangle with 22k wash....the green amethyst color is a bit deeper than the sea green that I am used to but it's beautiful and the diamonds are great quality. They still match my eyes which is another reason I love green. The amethyst stones have mirrors behind them and give the stones a fun mirrory effect. I would never have paid the absurd list price for these (over 5k, but selling for 7k on amazon and zappos..crazy) but for the steal that I got them for, I am thrilled and I wear them every week

Got this DBTY necklace from Old World Diamonds for a song. 4+ CTW of 0.05 MRBs set in platinum, eye clean, J-K.

The quatrefoil necklace belongs to the mystery model. No details for that, sorry!
