#JOTW Steven Kirsch Three Stone Ring - In the Making!!

[Puppy4248]

Hi Everyone!

I first reached out for some advice on Pricescope a little over a year ago, and after taking a hiatus on the project, I'm happy to announce that the brilliantly talented Steven Kirsch is currently making my dream engagement ring! It'll be a 4 ct square emerald center with tapered baguettes. While it's not finished yet, he very kindly gave me some progress pics to quell my curiosity and needless to say, I couldn't be more thrilled with it so far. I've been wanting a piece by Steven for what seems like forever and I can't believe it's finally happening haha!

I just wanted to say that Steven has been a dream to work with - extremely patient, accommodating, and professional. Even with all communication being done solely through email, he is very responsive and just as detail-oriented as I would expect if I met him in person. He was also kind enough to honor his original quote despite my hiatus on the project, which was a nice gesture. I think one of the best and most reassuring things about the process with him so far is that he has really made me feel taken care of...he let me give him as much detail as I could, and then for the other parts I wasn't sure I knew enough to speak to, he said he could tell just what I wanted and would take care of the rest. Based on the pics, he is spot on with what I had in mind - his knowledge, aesthetics and quality of work speak for themselves

Also, just wanted to thank all of you for helping me get educated about diamonds/engagement rings/vendors, especially Gypsy, mom2boys,caratlover2,animalia, CherryBlossom, diamondseeker2006, Christina and GoCubsGo25 for your input

And of course, specs:
4 ct - GIA certified
Color: G
Clarity: VS2
Polish/Symmetry: Excellent
No Florescence
9.17x8.9x5.85 mm
Finger size: 3.5

Thanks guys!!

And thank you all for your kind comments as well! Pictures of jewels plus a warm community of advisors, supporters and well-wishers? Is there anything better?! I have learned so much from you all and your beautiful jewelry that I am glad Steven gave me some informative pics to contribute.

And heididdl, I completely agree... one of the best parts of pricescope is being able to live through the process with fellow pricescopers when they share their stories and projects. No wonder I am completely addicted to this site.

Will keep you all posted!
