Worth the wait...my new Leon Mege!!!!

[bae7]

OMG - absolutely stunning!! I was disappointed there were only three shots!

 

[KristyDarling]

Gosh, the rings around here just keep getting more and more gorgeous! Diamond pooooorn!

Your ring is gorgeous! I especially love the square cuts in the shank -- such a beautiful and antiquey contrast against the center stone. Congrats! Please indulge us with hand shots when you can!

 

[CrownJewel]

If I were single, I think I would like to marry Leon Mege. ACE, your ring is beyond gorgeous. The diamond is beautiful and the setting is...I''m speechless. It''s perfect. Congrats on your engagement and your new sparkles!

 

[acegirlbda]

so they sent the ring today so I will be receiving it tomorrow...still have to get my nails done but I don''t want to leave the house in case the ups guy comes by! Here is a pic of the Tiffany ring it was modeled after....

Beautiful example of LM''s work. Here''s a side-by-side image of the inspiration piece and LM''s interpretation.

Lovely ring! I actually like the Leon version better. I think it looks cleaner w/o the second ring of diamonds below the head -- and then the square stone set on the side of the head really pops. Am I seeing things, or does the Leon have a bit of miligrain down the side of the shank that is not on the inspiration piece? If so, that is a nice tie-in with the halo edge.

awesome pictures with the 2 side by side, thanks! I think there is miligraining on the sides too...I didn''t ask for that, he just did it himself...I don''t care either way. I actually think I like this one better than the Tiffany one also...but I will have to wait until tomorrow! I do thik Leon''s workmanship is much better and cleaner as well.

I love the combination of round and square! Congrats!

Thanks allycat0303...your ring was definitely an inspiration!

OH MY GOSH!

Your ring is absoluty gorgeous!! I love the stones on the crown. That is so perfect. I love the halo on the round.

I guess Leon must have been listening to your vibs!!

I'd say it WAS worth the wait!! The workmanships is flawless!

And I like the Leon better than the Tiffany. I think the square shank diamond is more delicate looking.

I agree, the Leon one looks a lot finer, perhaps due to the milgrain on the shank and sides..

I cannot WAIT for handshots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, this reminds me of my other all-time favorite which was Alleycat''s Leon masterpiece.

I am going to faint whenever I see the photo, so please give us warning.

Like, "WARNING: DO NOT STAND NEAR BOILING WATER, SHARP SURFACES OR SMALL CHILDREN.
HAND SHOT MAY CAUSE SUDDEN AND UNCONTROLLABLE FAINTING SPELLS."

 

[acegirlbda]

Hand shots are well on their way

 

[acegirlbda]

here we go...

 

[acegirlbda]

The diamond looks dirty in that last pic but I guess it is b/c of the high magnification

 

[sunshine14]

 

[acegirlbda]

last one for now

 

[acegirlbda]

The package finally arrived at 4:30pm and my doorman called me down and said I had to pick up a package right away b/c it said "very high value" on it! Good thing I was busy today so I wasn''t waiting around for it. Anyways, it is even more stunning than I could ever imagine and EXACTLY what I wanted. I am so so so glad I spent so much time researching halo''s and this setting in particular and not letting just anyone do the setting. The pictures definitely do not do it justice. Leons pictures are much better but in person it is so much whiter and brighter and KA-BLING!

[acegirlbda]

[UCLABelle]

[Kim N]

I gasped when I saw this. It is just stunning. What a beautiful piece of work. Congrats!

 

[JulieN]

Luv it! Is it plat or yellow gold? Colors show up a little funny on my screen.

 

[FacetFire]

Oh wow! He did SUCH a good job!!!! It looks great!

 

[acegirlbda]

It is a 1.85 RB G VS2
dimensions: 7.94x7.91x4.?
depth: 61.7%
table: 55.4%
Polish: EX
Symmetry: EX

The setting is platinum...Leon''s pics came out a little yellow especially next to the Tiffany pic. The square cuts and round melee add up to 0.70ct

ring size is a 6 minus as Leon called it but it is a bit loose on me

 

[DMBsGirl]

oh my, that is just beyond words!!!!
