Matata!!
Whoa lady, you really went all out, this ring is awesomely beoootiful!

I just adore that profile, and the milgrained edge of the band - please, can you do some more shots showing the profile?
What a fantastic design and a lovely home for your OMC - did you come up with all the elements yourself, or did BGD design it?

Congrats lovey, it''s gorgeous.

Nice.

 

[sparkles]

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL........Harriet must be very flattered that her ring was behind the inspiration. I love this design and she has some of the most elegant settings.

Stunning!

 

[vespergirl]

That is so gorgeous, I just love it! The setting is so beautiful and unique.

I actually had to get up and get another cup of coffee so I could fully enjoy looking at your gorgeous ring. Every aspect of your ring is gorgeous. I love the shank with the milgrained edge. Just when I think we''ve seen it all, something new, wonderful and unimaginable pops up! It''s outstanding!

We''ll need LOTS more pictures.......

 

[NYCsparkle]

AJ, you were The Great Enabler on this one. You just had to go and post about your cushion and look what happened. LOL!

Thanks to all for your comments. Here are some more shots of the profile for those who asked. Tried to get some of the gallery also.

Your ring is truly beautiful

Another gorgeous design from Brian!!!

 

[gemgirl]

Matata, can you tell us about your stone? I must have missed the post when you bought it.

 

[Matata]

Sure thing Gemgirl. Here''s the scoop and then I''m off for a hike with friends so won''t be back until tomorrow. I can''t remember if I started a thread for the diamond, most of the discussion about it and the settings I was toying with are in Arjunajane''s thread about her cushion (I think).

GOG signature cushion
1.53c, K, VS2
7.05 x 6.61 x 4.37 mm
Depth 66.1%
Table: 52%
Thin to slightly thick faceted girdle
Medium culet
VG polish & symmetry
No fluorescence (I would have liked some fluro)

I rarely inhabit RockyTalky but went there one day on a whim and someone had started a thread for the new cushions. Took one look and was on the phone with Jonathan 30 seconds later, no exaggeration. I''ve always loved old cuts and have gone back and forth between OEC & OMC for years but never found one that made my heart skip beats until I saw GOGs. I wore the diamond in a simple Stuller mounting for awhile until I settled on a final design.

Ciao for now.

 

[tigian]

The setting is gorgeous! The stone is gorgeous! You must must must post more pics!

 

[joelly]

Wow!!! Gotta love that cushion. I love the design of the setting.

 

[Harriet]

Matata,
That diamond is to die for, as is the spinel. You''re most welcome. I am flattered that you used my ring as an inspiration.

 

[stacy]

AAACKCKKK!! I can''t decide which I love more -- the spinel or this gorgeous new BGD/GOG creation. I am in awe! Congrats on having both of these beauties.

 

[Rock_of_Love]

Just BEAUTIFUL!!! I love it!!! Congrats!!

 

[Ara Ann]

Oh my WOW! Love it! I love the different stone shapes together and the mil-grain detail too! Perfect setting for the stones!

Congratulations on a beautiful ring!

Theres only one thing better than that GOG diamond in the center, and i think it is that STUNNING setting from BGD!

;D

 

[Imdanny]

[vip0802]

[Matata]

I promise I won''t bump this anymore but I wanted to add one last picture showing my initials on the basket bottom

 

[Kelli]

That is truly a masterpiece in every way possible!

 

[kittybean]

Matata, your ring is breathtaking! That gorgeous setting and diamond are just heirloom-worthy perfection. I love the side stones you chose--they accent the OMC so well. Wear it in good health!
