CADS of Big Red's New Home by the Incomparable BGD

[Matata]

After nearly 2 yrs of hemming and hawing about redesign of my wedding ring, I'm relieved to present CADs of the new design by BGD. I originally wanted all gold although I'm equally delighted with the two tone design. I'm letting Brian make the final decision about the metals and looking forward to the surprise. If all goes well, I'll pick it up next week when I'm in Houston for a family wedding.

The original setting was platinum & diamonds and did nothing to enhance the stone which is a 3.21 ctw spinel. I love the chunky and rather masculine look of the new design.

That's really neat, especially the curvy chunkiness of it. I love the two tone look as well. Can't wait to see the finished product!

I have never seen your "big read"'s photos. But the CAD appears beautiful.

its a great design. very elegant yet substantial. and again while the design is devine, the color stone is the headliner.

Thanks ya'll. Just got back from a backpacking trip in the Pueblo Mountains which should be renamed Blood Thirsty Mosquito Mountains.
Here's a pic of Big Red for Bright Ice.

Very unusual and I love it, that Spinel is one of the reddest I've seen on PS.

I'm really looking forward to seeing this. I like the CAD's, but the finished piece is going to be divine.

The stone is beautiful. Is it a spinel or a ruby?
Did you wear it when you were backpacking?
