It''s so fluid and pretty. She must love it.


Can I ask the name of the jeweller Anchor? It looks like they do great work.

His name is Marcel André, in Montréal. They''re really amazing. A little pricier than most PS vendors, but it was great for us to be able to go in-store.

Thanks Anchor

I do like purchasing online, but it''s nice to know of a good local jeweller too (well, local in 12 months

) I will definitely check him out, I love the stuff you have posted so far.

Wow, what a clean contemporary look! I agree with other posters-it''s actually prettier on her hand. This is off an a tangent I know, but is Canada like some European countries where over 1 carats is sometimes perceived as gaudy?

I''m unsure about the rest of Canada, but in Qc, yes. French-Canadians (generally) perceive spending thousands on jewellery as being frivolous and ridiculous. I wear a 0.50ct and I''ve gotten more that one comment about it being ''huge'' (I''m a size 4.5, so it does look bigger than the average hand, but it''s not that big...) and my FI ''must be rich'' (er... It''s called saving up?).

I dunno if this is true for all Quebecers. I am from Quebec, Montreal in particular, and most people I know have at least 1 carat diamonds....

Here''s an idea for those with DSS. Take a quick trip to Quebec. After a week of people staring and saying "OMG that''s huge", no more DSS
