Nothing traditional here:

2.03 ct GIA Fancy Brown Greenish Yellow with Faint Yellow Fluoro
ring size 5
Metal is 14k Satin Finish. I wanted just a little softer yellow than the 18k yellowly yellow if that makes sense, I don't wear Rose gold so this was the better option for me.
pairing with a band from my local jewelry shop, but its being sized down right now... Will come back to post once I get it back next week.

Once upon a time, I had the same size diamond only it was a little lighter in color, and boy did I miss it, I ended up selling it to fund a different diamond to then end up with my now Fancy Light Yellow EC (Love Love Love) but I have always missed that Champagne RB... Well fast forward years later.... started looking for an anniversary gift and thought to myself I'd like that RB again paired with a halo design, but not a full halo as I already have a halo style ring. My love for semi bezels have always stayed with me so ideas started churning, I went directly to the Sholdt site... I've worked with Kaylee on several occasions for a few other settings, and she is just a doll to work with!.. Within minutes...she found the diamond and they had the perfect setting to marry the halo/semi bezel design in my mind. It was perfect! no changes! I had several diamonds saved in my emails from various site for months, but nothing stood out, When Kaylee emailed me specs, pictured and videos all within hours, it was THE ONE!

Thanks for making it this far. Onto the show... Enjoy! and Thank you for stopping in.
The diamond has many personality chameleon like: Greenish to light brown to golden yellow in different lighting, In black light it has faint yellow.

Pictured with my GIA Fancy Light Yellow EC, for comparison both 2 ct

Thank you Tekate! you are so sweet. I love semi bezel, but there is slight risk N/S the semi halo addition helps protect the diamond to some extent. Cant wait to see your OEC pendant:love:

Thanks D! so its actually 14k YG, but I didn't specifically state that :(2 but it looks a bit close to rose gold. its more low key than the EC for those days...

D&T my friend! It's been a while. I looked back through your threads to see what you have been up to... so many lovely pieces! I would love to see some family shots with details of your various stones if you have time :kiss2:

I am loving this new ring. I remember your first very well and this one definitely has the same feel, just updated for the current styles. It looks beautiful on your hand!

So nice to see you! Thank you, I'm loving the warmer diamonds, they give such unique personalities don't they?

So beautiful. I love Sholdt and this is one gorgeous ring! Enjoy!
Thank you so much Sandeek! Love your sapphire halo! I have often thought about getting a colored halo and yours is so gorgeous!

DD! Oh my goodness its been a while! How have you been?! I think I was looking for something on RT and saw a thread of yours... I'll have to pop in and see what you are up to! looks like you still have your amazing OEC/Tranny! she is gorgeous. I was on a hiatus for a few years, moved states, house reno... oh you know that well :lol-2: and some diamond soul searching... I actually sold almost everything I had and started over. its been over a decade since I've joined, and I first came for ACA then then branched out to CS, and found that I love the personality of warmer colored diamonds and dare I say size:oops: since my finger keeps going up in size... what the heck why not diamonds :mrgreen2: and I still enjoy colorless diamonds. Who knows maybe one day I'll get a colorless diamond for another anniversary gift. :twisted2:

Its a beautiful warm color. Not a brassy 14k. I like it a lot.

haha, yeah, this one is a keeper for sure! I've missed the first one so much, so glad I got this one! and its more of a deeper color like I wanted.

Oh wow that is amazing! The color is just so yummy, and the setting is perfect for it. Love Sholdt, love bezels. Well done and please more pics :appl:
I'll be sure to post more pictures once I get my band in hand in the next week. Hopefully it pairs well..lol I tend to buy things separately and hope for the best (in my mind at least) :wacko:

Oh I love it! It's so unique but quite lovely. :love:
thank you Catmom! It is different than the norm for sure... but seems like most of my rings are not quite traditional in around my area anyways, but I'm loving it.

What a beautiful showcase for your ball of sunshine! Glad it brings you joy every time you wear it...that’s what it’s all about!
How are you doing YF? hope all is well!:wavey:

Very cool design! Love the yellow gold and the half halo/half bezel.
Thank you Tyty! How have you been? so glad you stopped in. I've been out of the loop on here, not sure who all has what still.

Love this D&T!! Such a perfect way to maintain some bezel action but still get some exposed girdle & pavilion action too!
