A crying thread and a poll - the ring that got away so what next?

[Mreader]

It was sent USPS express on Friday, and tracking says tomorrow . But I didn't realize USPS had Sunday delivery, but perhaps with express they do? So anyway hopefully tomorrow, otherwise it should be here Monday!

A quick preview! I need to do something with my nails before I take more pics!

My initial thought was "holy sh*t that is a fabulously big diamond" . It makes me feel happy and very, very, fortunate

you are so lucky! Are you gonna reset it? Or leave it as it is?

I’m leaving it as is for now. I was thinking on my reset it but it would not be for a really long time. Plus, and this is a bonus, it’s a CVB setting!

Oh that’s to die for! Lovely!!

Well if it’s a CVB setting, absolutely keep it! Wow congrats

@Mreader Absolutely beautiful! I love the stone faceting, it’s size and the setting is perfect IMO. It allows the stone to do all of the talking!! And she is a chatty gal!! Enjoy and congratulations on replacing/bettering the one that got away.
