My 25th anniversary ring by Daniel M is finally done and I am just over the moon!

Many thanks to the PSers who gave me design advice along the way-I appreciate you all (especially the OEC Insta Posse). A special thank you to @missy for holding my hand throughout this process.

Stats: 4.11 ct M VS1 OEC set in Platinum with .76 cts I/J Full Cut Melee

Introducing Josephine aka Josie:

Apologies for my less than perfect manicure. And try to envision Josie on longer more elegant fingers than mine ;-)

The gallery-I decided to go with a wave pattern like @maryjane04's ring because I love the ocean.

p.s. @yssie you were right! Finding well matched lower color single cut melee was a challenge!

Wow! So much big bling! Congrats !
 
Aww wow congrats!! I feel so honoured to even have a mention in your post!! Happy 25 year anniversary and you deserve every bit of Josie (what a fitting name!!)!! She has an amazing presence on your finger. I love the design you picked for your unicorn OEC.

I kinda feel sad that your 2.85 ct F VS2 emerald cut doesn't have a name lol.
 
It’s so beautiful!!!! Did Dan source the melee? Wow wow wow!!! Congratulations on your anniversary and on this drop dead gorgeous stone!

Thanks so much @maryjane04 . Josie is one of the names that I considered for my younger daughter so I'm glad that I got to use the name for something :) And, you're right, the emerald cut does deserve a name, too! Do you have any idea? :lol:

Thanks @Mreader! Yes, Dan sourced the full cut melee. I tried sourcing some reclaimed single cuts myself from Etsy, but I couldn't get enough in the right color/size. Once I saw the melee Dan sourced, I knew I had to go with the full cut for this setting. It would have been too visually distracting to use the wonky stones.
 
Oh boy!! What a beautiful stone!! And the setting is gorgeous too! I just love the combination!! Wear it in much happiness!

Thank you @Slick1-I appreciate your kind words! I did waver a bit on the design, but I'm so glad I decided to go for it.
 
A big congratulations @lulu_ma on your 25th anniversary and for this beautiful ring. Hope you enjoy Josie for another 25 years.

Thanks @HollyC ! And I still want to see pics of your necklace ;)
 
Ahh, when I saw the ring on IG, I wondered if it was yours or if someone else had seen your inspiration ring! So happy for you that you were able to make the setting that you loved for your OEC! Happy anniversary!
 
First, happy anniversary and congratulations on 25 years of married life. And HOLY CANNOLI Batman, the stone and the ring are stunning. I'm happy I was wearing my drool bib when I looked at the pics.
 
How gorgeous! I LOVE the way the baguettes are set! Happy Anniversary!
 
Happy 13th Anniversary and what a way to commemorate it. :kiss2: Congratulations on finding your holy grail stone and setting. The journey has been worth the effort and the wait. Wear in health for many years to come.

Aww that is beautiful! Like another daughter :)

I think the emerald is modern so deserves a modern name. I am channeling Angelina or Jennifer hahahaha!!!!!!
 
What a beautiful ring! Congratulations on your anniversary and wear it in good health!
 
Wishing you and your husband a very happy 25th anniversary, that is a milestone!! :bigsmile:

And congratulations on putting together a commemoration piece that makes you smile, we PS folk all know that is not easy to do! I hope it continues to make you smile for many more years :appl:

Edited for sorry state of spelling!
