Hello--I''m fairly new to this forum, but I''ve been reading it almost non-stop! It''s rather addictive I must say. Anyway, our 25th anniversary was in October, and I''ve been ring shopping every since. I hate to think how many hours and how many websites I''ve looked at, trying to decide what kind of ring to get. My hubby left it entirely up to me. He just kept saying "get what you want". What a guy. No wonder I''ve kept him this long. So anyway, I''ve looked and looked and looked and finally decided on the ring. Then I started diamond shopping. Well, it was my good fortune to have found this forum. I''d been educating myself on diamonds, but I learned soooo much here. This is also where I came across Mark Turnowski and Engagement Rings Direct. In all the months of looking on the internet, I never came across his website that I recall. Can''t imagine why. Just the nicest guy in the world. I highly recommend him and his company.

So, are you ready for pictures? They''re not the best, even on my macro setting. My camera must be getting old.

Wowzers! You must have mighty small fingers, or that''s a magic stone, it looks way bigger than that!! Just beautiful.

And congratulations on your milestone, quite a reason to celebrate indeed!
 
Thanks all. Boy, you all are quick with your replies. :) I''m VERY happy with it. I was sorta skeptical about an I colored diamond. My original ering was 1.1 ct round, G SI1. But Mark had the diamond on his desk, looked it all over for me, and said I''d be very happy with. He was right. I can see no difference in color between it and my original. I''m sure that has a lot to do with a very well cut stone. I had my original put into a 3 stone ring with .40 side diamonds that were family diamonds. I''ve attached a picture, but boy, was that ring dirty!. I should clean it and take new pictures.

Well, I must admit. It''s bigger than I thought it would be. But I''m NOT sending it back.

I wear a 4.75. I went outside today to try and get some better pictures. I may have some new ones later on.
 
My next project is a band. Having a hard time making a decision on that. I''ve seen several on here that I just love, but I think I''m going to make a trip the "mall" and hopefully they''ll have some different styles to try on. I want to see what they feel like between my fingers, since I really like the look of the prong set ones. Then I''ll come back to the internet to do my shopping.
 
Congrats on your anniversary - that is quite a milestone!

Your stone looks very pretty and I really like the mounting you chose. I love the way the prongs spring up. Was it from ERD as well?

Enjoy every minute of it and good luck with the wedding band search! Let us know what you find.
 
Beautiful and Happy Anniversary!!!!

Someone asked about my ring. I got it from ERD also. I paid them on a Friday afternoon, and I was wearing it on Thursday. I thought that was pretty darned quick. Here are a couple of new pictures, outside this afternoon.
