Bit overwhelmed..

So have to say. So far Victor and his team have been amazing to work with. Ring is ordered. I went with the G color Diamond. Also changed to the Graduated Setting thanks @SimoneDi. Victor also said he could do the Trueste basket on the Graduated Setting. So pretty excited to see how this turns out. Now I just need to go sell an organ to go and pay for it.. LOL. Will keep things updated and can’t thank everyone enough for all your help.

LOL had to laugh at the joke because in all seriousness these little sparkly pebbles are so expensive! Nonetheless, it all sounds really exciting! I am glad that you finalized the design and the diamond, which are both extra gorgeous! I hope you both love the outcome and I am almost certain that you will as Victor is very talented. I can't wait to end result!

@tyty333 Where is that virtual finger thing from? Thank you!

The G would be my choice...reasoning...
- you are not gaining much size between the 1.25 and the 1.3 (7.02 vs 6.93x6.96)
- you have to drop down 2 colors to gain that little bit of size. I'm not color sensitive but the gain in size is not enough (for me) to drop two color grades.
*if size is your highest priority then go with the 'I'...I try to balance the trade-offs

This will show you the relative size difference between the 2 stones on a size 7 finger (1.3 on left, 1.25 on right) so you can make a more educated
decision on what you want to do...

And BTW, you have a great budget (and I like the trueste the best although both are lovely)!

This is the one I have used, before....

[BlingDreams]

It is truly spectacular . The perfect combination between the two settings you like best. Congratulations on a gorgeous outcome, and good luck with the proposal!!

 

[thedru13]

Got the ring today!!! Wow can't even being to say what a wonderful experience it has been working with Victor and team. Ring was overnighted and comes with all documentation. I stink at taking photos and using a cell phone doesn't help but here are some more pics. Not great ones but thanks again to everyone for helping me make this a great experience as well as all the help i received. This forum is a great place with so many wonderful people. You all have made this experience stress-free and educational as well as fun. Thank you all

 

[meely]

Looks lovely, so classic and elegant, I can't imagine it ever dating the proportions are spot on too! Nice job!

 

[BlingDreams]

Absolutely fabulous result!!! You did an amazing job combining her likes and Victor's craft. I'm sure she'll be blown away

 

[whitewave]

OMG!!! Gorgeous!!
Can't wait to see the hand shots!

 

[motownmama]

That's a true winner!!!! Congrats!

 

[thedru13]

She said YES!!! Some finger shots. Ring looks even better on her hand than I thought it would. I can’t believe how much the diamond sparkles in the sunlight. It blings that’s for usure. Looks amazing in the light.

 

[LLJsmom]
