And another one :bigsmile: I should add also that the walls in the room where that photo were taken were a really horrible buttercup yellow. :errrr:

Oh no worries at all, Softly Softly! I really appreciate your time in posting pics for me too...
Funny, when I bought it I didn't know it belonged to a PSer, I just knew I loved it and had to get it.
Yes, a halo wouldn't be good, I agree. Victor sourced me some low color single cut melee for the band, I can't wait to see it all come together!

Did you get/decide on your upgrade yet, Softly Softly?

Are you going with french cut melee? As for me, I ended up going in a completely different direction. I purchased a 2.5 J SI1 BGD Blue stone and had it set in a Leon classic solitaire. I really love it, but will always have a soft spot for OECs. Maybe one day I'll be able to justify a right hand ring ;))

I was thinking of going with tapered french cuts for m E-ring, they are so beautiful, but I'm hoping to get an AVC as a RHR eventually and I like how they look with frenchies so I'm waiting on that project for them.
Victor sourced some single cut melee in a lower color to better go with this stone and he's going to do a shallow cut down pave on the band and also some on the basket, that's the plan so far. I called GIA today to see if there was any progress on the grading, they had initially said 10-15 business days when I called to ask before Victor sent the stone, but today they told me it's be more like 8 weeks :(sad

Oh, did you post pics of your new ring, sounds gorgeous! I didn't see you post anything, would love to see :)

Oh man, threadjack *away* if this is the sort of eye candy we get! :appl: :appl:

Both those stones are TDF. That OEC softly softly sold is absolutely killer, it looks super sparkly and bright.

Well since mapelfemme is being made to endure such a long wait to meet this lovely stone, how about a couple more pics to tide her over. Hope you enjoy them

Wow, thanks Softy Softly! You made my day with those pics, that was really nice of you :) It's sooo hard to wait, I hope my SO doesn't torture me too long once he gets it, lol.
Thank you LGK and Yssie, means a lot to me as I respect both your knowledge and opinions on diamonds, you have both taught me so much since I found PS earlier this year.

LGK the stats are:

2.93
VS
K/L/M
*It's at GIA right now being graded so we'll find out for sure once Victor gets it back.
I have to say, Victor has been above and beyond helpful, I can't say enough good things about his customer service.

Thanks again Softly Softly! :wavey:
