Thank you to all of you!!! yes I plan to come out of lurkdome and start being an active member!! Again thank you for your kind words--I sweated almost a month waiting for this ring--my jeweler is an amazing guy with a ton of patience!!

Now that is an amazing ring. I love how settings can change the look and size of a diamond. It looks well over 2 cts. Congrats.

That puppy is a monster (by monster I mean a totally huge and shiny sparklebomb!) It took me a while to come out of lurkedom myself, but I''m glad that I did-and glad that you did too! Thanks for sharing your pretty with us. Please do take more pics, and try to post close ups. I''d like to see more of the setting as it looks very unique.

Congrats on your upgrade!

 

[Maisie]

wowzers, that''s a gorgeous upgrade! What finger size are you - I agree with the other posters that the stone looks much bigger than 1.55!! Congrats

 

[LaurenThePartier]

I echo SDL''s request for more close-ups! Your upgrade is absolutely gorgeous and looks HUGE on your tiny finger!

 

[lolasmom]

oops

 

[sds061]

Gosh you all are soo kind!! My jeweler said the diameter of the center stone measures out to a little over 3 carats--gotta love the power of a halo!! like I said I have been lurking on here for a while now and I searched and searched to find a pic of what the ring would look like--My jeweler suggested the setting--it was inspired by a carl messler halo with a split shank down the sides and we wanted to fit the trillions inside the opening of the shank--I am going to try and post a few more pics now--but seriously some of the close ups just don''t do it justice..stay tuned and thanks again for all the compliments!!

Co-sign. I wonder if she meant 2.55 or 3.55?

Holy moly!!!!

That looks amazing! And amazingly huge! I can''t believe its 1.55!

 

[sds061]

well I guess I am done b/c I can''t get any more of my pics to upload

 

[purrfectpear]

That just won''t do

Joking with you

That is a very, very pretty ring and I ditto the others, I would

to see detailed closeups of the ring. It''s simply stunning

 

[sds061]

I don''t know why the more detailed pics wont upload--I went into paint and did the same thing with them that I did with the others and they won''t upload--don''t know what I am doing wrong..
anyways also want to thank those of you that complimented my "tiny" fingers--to me they are short and fat--my dh endearingly calls them man hands--mostly because when someone needs a jar opened they come to me!!
