JEWELS OF THE WEEKS DECEMBER 2023
DECEMBER 1, 2023 OLD EUROPEAN CUT (OEC) DIAMOND ENGAGEMENT RING UPGRADE
TruLuv858 introduced us to Coco, her Old European Cut (OEC) Diamond Engagement Ring Upgrade. This is a jaw-dropping beauty; we LOVE it and really appreciate TruLuv858 having shared it. The cursed DSS struck TruLuv858, as it does so many of us. This disco ball should have fewer diamond-shrinking perception issues, as it’s a gloriously hearty stone! Congratulations on this new upgrade, may Coco always make you smile!
