My exquisite ring from Whiteflash

[angel777]

Hello everyone,

Finally I can post in SMTR forum.
I ended up buying a 1.57 ct J, SI2 stone from Whiteflash.
I had problems getting insurance on the loose stone, so I decided to avoid the hassle and get a setting from Whiteflash as well.
Whiteflash is wonderful, I enjoyed working with them so much and so glad I chose them!
I wanted the sparkliest setting, so I went with "Diamonds for an Eternity".
I absolutely adore the ring and the diamond. It faces up sooo white; I cannot detect the slightest hint of color. I wonder if this is a D stone in all honesty

I think if I ever upgrade (DSS has not set in yet at all), I might even go with a K!
Thank you everyone for your help, feedback and inspirations. I really really appreciate it, and could not have done it without you.

Without further ado, here are the pictures, but it looks so much prettier in person!

Thank you bling*diva*, Sophie, onedrop, Rosebud8506, Tacori E-ring, february2003bride, jfo, FacetFire, Beacon, Cehrabehra, Mara, bae7 for kind words!!
I am on 7th heaven! I haven’t taken this beauty off even once nor do I plan to.

Rosebud8506 – I want the matching band from Whiteflash, except I’d really like it if they replaced all the diamond with aquamarines.
I don’t know yet if they can do that, but will post my set whenever I get that done (probably next year sometime).

My fiancé is buying a DSLR this week, so I will take more flattering shots when it comes. But here are a couple of more pictures.

Cloudy day today, but this picture shows:

Warning, 10 questions ahead!

What are the specs on your center stone? What are the size of the melee? The ring size?

(Inquiring minds want to know!)

PS STUNNING PHOTOS!

 

[diamondseeker2006]

It''s beautiful!

Great choice!

 

[Ellen]

Very pretty, congrats!

 

[anchor31]

Congratulations! Gorgeous ring!

 

[lumpkin]

That is really pretty! Congratulations!

 

[susi]

Very white, and just beautiful!

 

[angel777]

Oh girls, thank you so much for all your warm comments.
Lynn,
the specs are as follows:

Shape: Round Ideal Cut
Carat: 1.57
Depth %: 62.2
Table %: 56
Crown Angle: 35
Pavilion Angle: 40.8
Girdle: Medium to Slightly Thick
Measurements: 7.41-7.44X4.62
Light Performance: 0
Polish: Very Good
Symmetry: Excellent

The ring comes with 24 ACA diamonds .90 tcw so that means size of melle is roughly .03 points.
Ring size is 6, although I should have gotten 5.75 or less as the ring is quite twirly and easy to get off and on. But I didn''t want a spacer for resizings as I wanted a true full eternity ring.

Olive Garden lights make it sparkle soooo much.

What a beautiful ring!!!

 

[Idealistic]

Your ring is beautiful! It sparkles so much. It''s so white that it''s hard to tell if it''s a D or J color. Did you buy from their ACA brand? It looks like it belongs in that group. What a true beauty!

 

[gailrmv]

It''s so pretty! Congratulations!!

 

[angel777]

Idealistic,
The stone is from Whiteflash Expert Selection. I think it missed ACA branding by a tiny notch as I think its perfection and looks like ACA stone that I saw before, just bigger.

Mara,
Thank you again for all your help. It was your posts that convinced me and my fiancé that if I went for a J, SI2 stone, I could get the biggest stone for my money.

You rock! ^_^

Angel, your ring is to die for! Wear it in good health, and congratulations!
