I got it !!!

[c-c]

HI guys, I got my ring today!

My boyfriend of 5 yrs just gave me this ring for my birthday! I need to get a new setting for the diamond. any suggestion?

ps. sorry for the hand shots!( my hand doesn't look good on the pic

, I just couldn't get the pic right, diamond is hard to photograph!

)

It's radiant cut, 1.5ct. H, vs1

Thanks for all the reply!!!

 

[AndyRosse]

Congrats!

Tell us more and of course, more pics please!

 

[Daniela]

c-c,
It''s gorgeous!!! What are the specs??

 

[belle]

lovely.....tell us more!

my boyfriend ask me to get a new setting for the ring locally. He said he doesn't know which one I like, so he just ask them to set it in a simply setting,( So I can wear it right away.) then I can choose the setting later. what do you guys think? I am thinking of a very thin band with diamond sets all around or 3/4 on the band, since my fingers are short.

open for any suggestion!! Thanks for all the reply!

ps. I would try to take more pic. Is there any tricks for taking these pics?

 

[psuheather]

ooohhh c-c....beautiful! I think that the setting you have is gorgeous--classic with simple elegance. However, if you want to switch it up, there are a lot of beautiful settings out there to choose from. What's your "type?" Do you like antique or modern, solitaire or side diamonds, substantial or more minimal....you get the idea

Edited--oops, didn't see that you wanted a thin eternity band...sorry! Ok, brainstorming........

I love when guys do this!! I LOVE a thin band, especially if you have short fingers! If it were me, I would go for 3/4 around the band, that way it could be sized later if need be.

Good luck

 

[psuheather]

hmmm...having some trouble posting pics for some reason. i''ll keep trying

 

[psuheather]

ok, here we go...ritani, 4-prong endless love setting. shown here (kayla17''s beauty) with an rb, but i believe it can be set with a few different shapes.

[Patty]

It''s beautiful, c-c!

I like the idea of a pave band, but the simple solitaire is always beautiful too!

Congratulations! I love your radiant...and it would look super stunning in a micro pave setting.

 

[sevens one]

That radiant sure is pretty.

 

[c-c]

Thank you all!!!

I just drop off my ring for a new setting! going to pick it up about 10 days or 2 weeks.

[Kaleigh]

Oh c-c, good luck, can''t wait to see your new setting. What did you pick?? I''m sure it will be lovely!!

 

[Sashabella]

It''s beautiful. Where did oyu wind up getting it set (you are also in Toronto?)? What setting did you choose?

Congrats!

 

[c-c]

yes, I am in toronto. I chose a simply setting which I can wear it everyday!

something like this

but with 3/4 diamonds around the band.(got the tip from here

) I hope it will turn out ok! keeping my fingers cross

 

[psuheather]

Wow, c-c...that was quick! You must be a decision maker...it takes me years to finally settle on even the simplest of decisions

LOVE the setting...it''s going to look drop dead gorgeous!

 

[Buena Girl]

Nice choice

Your ring will look amazing!!!
