MAY 14, 2021 A JAW-DROPPING ETERNITY RING FROM VICTOR CANERA
Frankiextah shared this unbelievable eternity ring with us. I keep defaulting to calling this the “Mother of all eternity rings.” It was a long ongoing project, but it arrived in time for Frankiextah’s first Mother’s Day! Happy belated Mother’s Day, and congratulations on this stellar addition to your collection!

Total: 9 ct
Color: 5x H color, 3x G color, and 3x I color

Platinum setting
Finger size 5.5
The old Swiss cut halo (with one old transitional replacement) works out to be approximately .16 carats (20 diamonds total).
MAY 21 , 2021 CUSTOM CUT 5CT WHITEFLASH ACA UPGRADE
M-2-b shared this WOWZA custom cut 5ct Whiteflash ACA upgrade with us. This upgrade is super fun, it was an uphill battle at times because the pandemic has slowed the diamond trade overall. M-2-b gave her Whiteflash sales associate the specs she was looking for, and since nothing was available in her parameters they decided to go with a custom cut. For a custom-cut diamond, you still need the diamond rough. That still took some time, but as you can see…this was worth every second. I can’t get over it, this is one of my favorite rings of this style! That Victor Canera Emilya was an inspired choice. Brava! This is truly outstanding!
STATISTICS:
Center:
5.02ct
Color: H
Clarity: VS-2
Custom cut ACA
MAY 28, 2021 OMB IN A VICTOR CANERA TRILOGY
Carbonfan shared this magnificent OMB in a Victor Canera trilogy ring with us. Yes! This is such a PriceScope moment! This OMB once belonged to another PriceScoper. When gorgeous diamonds change hands, it always makes my heart happy to know that it stayed in the PriceScope family. Carbonfan, it turns out, was already an Isla (the name of the OMB) fan and had been admiring it for years! Carbonfan says that she feels this ring has a poetic feel about it, and I 100% agree. The mix of the old stone with the two newer side stones turned out beautifully. The old and the new creating beauty together, I love it!
STATISTICS:
Isla is a 3.02ct
Color: I
Clarity: SI1
OMB (9.47 X 8.83 X 5.74)
Side Stones:
.31 and .32ct
Color: F
Clarity: VS1 Canera Ideal Hearts diamonds (~4.4mm)
May has brought a lot of beauty back into the world, and lots of it ended up with PriceScopers. Congratulations all around! May they bring you heaps of joy for many years to come.
Thank you for sharing your magnificent jewels with us and helping to celebrate PS members’ pieces every week! We look forward to seeing the newest additions in the Show Me the Bling! forum.
