#JOTW 4.7 ct Emerald Cut Reset for my Mom's Milestone Birthday

[Bishbunch]

I absolutely love your story and this ring! Just gorgeous!

 

[lulu_ma]

What a transformation!! It's so beautiful, she's going to love it! And hellooooo finger coverage

Thanks @Dandi! She always dreamed of owning a 10 ct. Since I don't have the ability to get her one, I figured this was the next best thing. And, it really is a beautiful stone to begin with.

Happy birthday to your mum @lulu_ma .
What a lovely daughter you are, the reset is stunning and I hope your mum is thrilled.
Best wishes to your dad and your family Xx

@Sparkles88 thanks so much! I feel very fortunate to since have my mom and dad-this is just a small gesture of appreciation.

This turned out amazing! I also love the idea of a colored stone so she can also enjoy her old setting.

Thank you @mustangchi. Too be honest, the setting still kind of bugs me. Something about the portions. But I will find my mom a colored stone if she wants one!

 

[CircularBrilliant]

It's sooo beautiful! And really shows off the stone so much better!

Beautiful transformation!!! I am not really a fan of trillions, and especially with an EC. Since you knew your mom wanted a larger stone, the halo was the perfect solution!

 

[lulu_ma]

This is stunning! The new setting really enhances the beauty of your mom‘s diamond. Plus, killer real estate! What a kind and generous gift for your mom.
I can’t wait to hear all about her reaction on Sunday.

Thank you @elle_71125 . I really think the setting brings out the beauty of the stone. I was insistence on warmer melee. I think it worked out well

Woah, gorgeous and huge!! She can't help but love it!

@Catmom Thanks so much!

I absolutely love your story and this ring! Just gorgeous!

Thank you @Bishbunch !

Thanks @CircularBrilliant ! I have always been fond of these types of halos. Glad that this one turned out so well!

@diamondseeker2006 thank you! I think trillions can look lovely but something about portions of the original setting look off to my eye.

Thank you everyone in sharing in my excitement about this reset. I'm happy to report that my mom loves the ring!

On top of being a wonderful mother and grandmother, she's also a former nurse and a cancer survivor, herself. I'm so happy that I could do something extra special for her milestone birthday.

(I made her pose a lot. She said, "People are going to think we are crazy." )

Just a couple more pics from yesterday's lunch (it's vacation week here)



My mom had a bit of JLo vibes going

@lulu_ma, it is an absolutely gorgeous ring and looks perfect on your mother! She is such a good sport too! Tell her we PS'ers thank her lol. She definitely deserves something special. You are a very thoughtful daughter too.

OMGOODNESS

Your mom's sweet gold band next to it melts me!!! I have a large blue topaz from my mom I need to reset but have been struggling with a setting... while it's a pear I believe something like this would work!

 

[MamaBee]

@lulu_ma This made me tear up…I just love that you did this for your mom. The smiles can be seen even though both of your parents are wearing masks. The ring is beautiful..It’s even more special now because not only is it her engagement ring...but you added to the memories by doing this loving gesture for her.
Is the little girl yours? Precious. I love the last photo…

Oh a pear with a deco-ish halo would be amazing! I hope you post in Rocky Talky about it. I would love to see your ideas!

Yesterday was the big day! Since my mom is a good sport, I got a few more pics.

"Pretend like you are drinking water mom"



"Act like you heard something funny" (my sister pointed out that it looks more like "oh I smell something bad" )


"Okay, now put on my ring and wave your hand around"

 

[Austina]

Utter perfection

These pictures of your mum have absolutely made my day The ring looks super stunning & I love the gold wedding ring tucked underneath - a classic look.

Her face is as giddy & excited as if she was freshly engaged all over again! Love the picture with your dad on it too. What lovely, happy parents you have
