Re: Asscher Zircon ring dipped in diamond sugar by Victor Ca

On my way :naughty:
I am currently sitting in the train. Awfully delayed naturally :rolleyes:

Thank you calliecake, lljsmom and derbygal!!

misskittycat: handshots will follow tonight! I am also a FB regular hoping for a reveal on PS :naughty:

dk :D 2 more rings: one at the end of summer and one by the end of the year :twisted: After that I am so Seriously banned.

woofmama please post a pic of your Jeff Davies stone! One thing I am certain about is that the stone will look totally different compared to the pics :o

Thank you for your kind words sirguy and bbziggy

mochiko Thank you!! I love my paraiba as well. I have the feeling I will also be mesmeriseer by this little one.
 
Re: Asscher Zircon ring dipped in diamond sugar by Victor Ca

angeline yes, I can see what you mean. I also love the greyish blue of the video. I am trying to keep an open mind about it though. It again proves how difficult it is to order a stone online :eek:

Thank you ckricket!

You are so kind diamondseeker! It was arkieb who pointed my attention to Jeff as well as blue zircons in general.
Within an hour it will be mine if the train will not be delayed further.
How is your band from CvB progressing?

polished, Victor's work never ceases to amaze me. I am impressed as well by the sugar dip look.

Thanks rosebloom! I know that Victor's work cannot disappoint me. Hopefully I am just as impressed by the zircon. Never saw one in my life :o .

You cannot make a wrong choice here puppyguts! What kind of center stone do you have? So excited for you that you will also work with VC.

missy: someone is testing my patience as the train is resting in front of a red sign. Apparantly it stays red for a looooong time. I cannot wait!!!

A big thank you arkieb for your advice in this process and for pointing me towards zircons! I always value your opinion highly.

Aww, thank you for liking my ring collection mochiko
 
Re: Asscher Zircon ring dipped in diamond sugar by Victor Ca

Gorgeous ring! Can't wait for the hand shots!
 
Re: Asscher Zircon ring dipped in diamond sugar by Victor Ca

The ring is finally on my finger. I cannot believe how beautiful it is :love:
The setting is so beautifully made. The stones in the halo are so delicate and yet every single little diamond seems to have the right place. In person it looks even more as if the ring has been dipped in sugar.
The stone is a beautiful blue. It's hard to describe a color... The vendor pic seems to be rather accurate. It's a beautiful saturated middle blue with a touch of grey. I love it :love:

Will post pics tonight. Made some with my other iPhone but the battery went dead :rolleyes: .
Will be back with pics!!! :wavey:
 
Re: Asscher Zircon ring dipped in diamond sugar by Victor Ca

Finally some first handshots. Excuse the louse photo quality: I had to snap some pics in a few minutes this afternoon before the battery gave up. I will make some more photo's tomorrow when it's light again.

The colour sometimes looks like the vendor pics. When the sun shines the stone is more a tranquil greyish blue.
In the train and inside it looks like a deep blue sky, but darker. And sometimes the colour has a teal quality.

On to the handshots:

Re: Asscher Zircon ring dipped in diamond sugar by Victor Ca

Handshots look amazing

I have an old 9mm OMC that I've had for years and an aquamarine asscher cut I'm eyeing off from wildfish
 
Re: Asscher Zircon ring dipped in diamond sugar by Victor Ca

Wow, it is amazing!!! I love an asscher cut stone, and your ring is perfection! I think I love it with the colored stone even better than a diamond. Holy cow, but it is gorgeous! More pics please.

Thanks puppyguts :wavey:
Ah, please post a pic of your OMC. I would love to have one :love: It will probably never happen so I will live vicariously through you. And oh... An aqua Asscher must be amazing.

Re: Asscher Zircon ring dipped in diamond sugar by Victor Ca

A big thank you to Victor: I actually feel honored that you made a gorgeous ring for me for the second time. There is not one single detail I would have wanted differently. I love the clean lines of the uhm... stems? struts?. It's amazing that those tiny pieces of metal have a perfect row of pave as well. I also love how the bright cut set pave defines each border with milgrain.

And a thank you to Paige as well. I have worked with her for the first time and I must say she gives a great customer experience. There is also a great and seamless communication between Paige and Victor.

And a thank you to Jeff Davies for providing me with a gorgeous stone with an amazing cut! His customer service was professional and pleasurable as well.

A big hug for Arkieb for your advice and pointing me towards zircons. I am slowly learning from you to have a sharper eye.

Re: Asscher Zircon ring dipped in diamond sugar by Victor Ca

Wow! Those low angle shots make it look even better. Just a beautiful piece. I see what you mean about the "struts" looking so good. Everything flows very well on it. :wavey:
 
Re: Asscher Zircon ring dipped in diamond sugar by Victor Ca

Congrats, I love it, it is magnificent from every angle - as most of Victor's work is!!!!! :appl: :appl: :appl:
 
Re: Asscher Zircon ring dipped in diamond sugar by Victor Ca

missy it's just my roller derby player name (lol)

I don't have any pics of the OMC it's in the vault with passports etc. I'm sure I would have lost it by now otherwise, it was my bf's idea years ago to put it away; after I dropped it in the couch one day and lost my mind trying to find it.
 
Re: Asscher Zircon ring dipped in diamond sugar by Victor Ca

That looks stunning :sun:

I think the zircon really stands out and looks better in that setting than I think a diamond would! :)
 
Re: Asscher Zircon ring dipped in diamond sugar by Victor Ca

Acinom, I am so happy you are in love with your new beauty by Victor (and Jeff). It is gorgeous in every way. And what a profile. :love: W :love: W!!!!!
Gorgeous ring and wonderful experience. It all went perfectly. :appl:

Thank you sirguy!! Victor is the master of flow. I truly admire his craftmanship and high quality work . If I had not been been I would have been thinking about a next project with Victor :twisted:

I could not agree more arkieb. I am also pleasantly surprised about the fact that I love the halo. Before this I admired the beautiful PS halo's, but I had serious halo-phobia where my own rings were concerned: I was more a blingitaire type of person. But now I see that a halo can make a center stone pop if done well.

puppyguts your husband is a wise man. I cannot wait to learn what design you will choose for your OMC.

oohshiny: I am really happy with the contrast. This contrast might also be due to the fact that the melee is bright cut set so the halo and center stone are more defined? I must say I so loved the contrast in Lovey's ring.

Aww, thank you for your sweet words missy! It indeed was a great experience working with Victor and also with Paige. The process with Jeff was also a good experience: I sort of knew right away that this was going to be 'my' stone.
