Thank you for the compliments! I have had several people grab my hand and ask me about it and then tell me its their birthstone. One woman even wanted to trade me for her e-ring...errrr no.
I don''t know what I like better about your ring: that is it beautiful or that it came from your grandfather. I think it is so incredibly special to have family heirlooms. Congratulations & great job putting it in a timeless & classic setting. I''m very fond of citrines set in white gold. I think white metal sets off the color nicely.
