OMG, you guys are funny !!!!!
I just happened to look on this thread and saw all the posts about my ring ...
Yep, it''s true, only 13k TOTAL.. for EVERYTHING....
The stone, the setting, the labour, ALL OF IT...
Just a sec.. I have the invoice...
The cost for the SETTING, Ring R221, three stone pave in platinum was 3800.00
The cost for the CENTRE STONE, Asscher J,VS2,1.80 was 7,191.00 (Amazing deal)
The cost for the SIDESTONES (shields) at 0.63 tcw was 1,660
The cost for the MELEE, which is the 196 pave stones on the band (three sided), head and prongs was 702.00
For a grand total of 13,353....
The centre stone was ''floated'' around online, and my FI and I first spotted it on EBAY of all places... Leon had found it as well, and was SHOCKED it was on Ebay and immediately contacted the seller, who happened to be one of his distributors.. let''s just say he was not pleased..
Anyhoo, my FI purchased the stone through Leon.
Leon has access to AMAZING stones and my FI left the sides stones completely up to him and they are magnificant !!!
Leon''s work is extraordinary and because of the detail, I think most assume his prices refect that.. insome cases yes, but even his solitare settings or settings with not as much detail as mine are MORE than reasonable.
His labour, considering the work in each ring, is more than reasonable and is actually less expensive than most designers...
The stone in my ring was an amazing deal and I have yet to find one with the same specs under 10k...
When looking at diamonds, SHOP around and take your time.. it''s amazing what you''ll find....
Sometimes I wish I would have done more of it...... I have seen some incredible deals...
