DSS cured. 2.28 OEC in CVB "Casablanca" halo..

This is so lovely!! The finger coverage is AMAZING and I love all the little details on the setting!! Enjoy your new bling!!
 
I LOVE this ring!!! This is one of my favorite settings and I adore the 2 tone look that you chose. The diamond is incredible!! I keep going back to stare at the pics!!! It's really just phenomenal. Did you post specs on the diamond and I missed it? Curious what the diameter is? Did Caysie source it for you? It's such an incredible stone and definitely not too big, it really looks PERFECT on your finger :)...and unfortunately your ring is making me want to upgrade...ahhhhh

Hi Goldenfire! Here's a link to my stone- it came from Erica at LAD. It's a 2.28 but it faces up larger, ESPECIALLY in the halo. I feel like the halo compliments the stone so much more than the solitaire I had it in. In the end, I'm just a halo girl through and through. LOL!

Love it!!!!! Amazing presence and so elegant!!! Glad you're happy! :)
 
I can't imagine shrinkage any time soon! Gorgeous!
 
:love::love: Talk about coverage!! That looks spectacular!! Congratulations soxfan! It looks so wonderful on you.
 
Door knocker!
 
Just gorgeous. No getting tired of looking at that one! Beautiful job. Just in time for that beautiful under the tree diffuse light.
 
Gorgeous! Great choice!
 
Thanks everyone:) It certainly is getting QUITE a lot of attention from everyone who sees it. Even strangers. LOL!
 
Aww heck yeah...

Gorgeous one-of-a-kind face-up front. Glorious gallery. Finger coverage... Check, check. Your stone is home :love:

Too big!? Pour yourself some wine and perish the thought woman!!!! She's curvy in all the right ways - of course people can't help but ogle :twisted:
 
Love your ring. I'd been following your story in lurk mode & please to see the final result. Stunning & I love that setting. Enjoy!

Beautiful and too big? Never :lol:
 
Guess what? The size now feels completely normal. That didn't take long- you all were right.:lol::lol::lol:

I am a halo girl at heart too ...I just LOVE your ring! It is really one of my all time favorites and pretty much what I would do if I upgraded..... I think your ring is just PERFECT! Every time I see the pics an upgrade is calling to me lol

I can't imagine a more perfect setting for your awesome stone. However, you've gone from thinking "too big" to "completely normal" and my crystal ball says in about 12-18 months DSS will rear its ugly head because while DSS may be in remission, it is never cured :mrgreen:
 
Oh my, one should never waffle, just wobble over and pick up the bigger Stone!
 
Returning to your thread to drool over your beautiful pics. Halo's indeed look gorgeous on you. How do you compare your former classic halo with CVB's 'fancy classic'/ 'new classic'?

Hi Acinom:)

My Emilya had a MRB in it. I MUCH prefer the casa with my OEC. And I like that the halo isn't as sparkly as the Emilya- if that makes sense. It's very subtle and lets the center stone really be the star.
 
Soxfan!!
Caysie came through! I know you labored over your decision...I believe you made the right choice & she is knocking dead GORGEOUS!! I LOVE it on you! Tiny fingers-*swoon*...mine aren't "large", but under a 5?!? HOLY CRAP! My GM was a size 4...and hers fit on my pinkie finger!! My hands, when swollen, are a 6. They spin a lot in cold weather because my finger is a true 5.5-5.75...I can't imagine being between a 4 & a 5!! The coverage on your hand is magnificent!
Beautiful selection, and great choice! Your OEC really looks stunning! I love the design!!
Congratulations!!!

I have one more ring in the works with Caysie and that's it for me for rings:) Unless I hit the lottery, of course!

I completely understand your OEC love. I am a huge fan myself. The halo adds to the beauty of the OEC in a modern vintage sort of way. It's a stunning effect
 
I keep coming back to look at these pics...this ring is perfect!
 
I keep coming back, too, because I want one!:love: But I am just not 100% sure of which diamond I want to put in it and whether to do all platinum or have a pink gold edge around the stone.
