I just picked up my new (and new-to-me) rings from Quest yesterday. The first is a .51ct G SI1 (Pete thought it was more like G-H, VS2) Old European Cut that I bought from a private seller for a really amazing price. I still can''t believe the steal! Anyway, all of my rings are either platinum or white gold, and I really wanted a yellow gold ring, as I have a yg plain wedding ring that I like to wear from time to time. Quest combined aspects of the Lucida and the X-Prong in 18k yg, with a platinum head. The ring is a size 3.75, and is meant to mostly be worn on my right hand.

I can''t figure out how to upload multiple pics in one post, so I''ll have to do a few.

First one:

I ended up trying to take pics in the car on the way to the gym. My husband was embarassed and hoped that the next car over didn''t see what I was doing.

So then I had the 14kt white gold repro antique setting with diamond accents leftover from the OEC. I had Quest set an aquamarine, as it's both my husband's and my birthstone. Quest sourced the aqua, re-rhodiumed, sized to 3.75, set the stone, retipped the prongs, and also replaced a small diamond that was missing. This will also be a RHR, which makes my RHR collection grow to 4 rings.

Love the yellow gold ring. That stone is on fire and Quest did an excellent job on the setting. The aquamarine is lovely. I love that it''s both of your birthstones. You did a great job recycling that ring LS. I love them both!!!!

Your YG gold ring is beautiful and the stone is very sparkly. What a great find! But I have to tell you, I absolutely love the aquamarine ring. I love the color and it looks fantastic in that setting.

Wow- they''re amazing LS.

Love how you set the aquamarine in the "old" setting for the OEC.
Quest does it again. (don''t forget to add those to the Quest thread)

I''m so glad to finally see the finished rings, LS. What a wonderful recycling project. The aquamarine looks like it has been in that ring the entire time. That was a really great idea. Bravo Quest!

Thanks everyone! Pete was really good about getting me a nicely colored aqua, I think. And Kaleigh, aqua makes perfect sense b/c my husband and I share the same birthday.

Your new rings are so pretty - two new sparklies at once - you hit the jackpot! Where is the band you will wear with the new solitaire?
