I Really Did It This time......

[Andelain]

I just got the pics of my pendant and earrings headed my way and I messed up by looking at the sale BGD is having right now....

I need to cut this out, I really want to have WF do my custom ring. But it has to wait, because the stones for it aren't here with me, so.....

I pulled another Andelain!

Andelain, you are on FIRE, girl! Well, you only live once and diamonds are only going up in price, so you might as well get what you want sooner rather than later!

The diamonds you picked are lovely, and a REALLY nice size!

I also saw the sale and I currently "need" a pair of studs of about 0.60 ctw in yellow gold to go with my new pendant, but fortunately the settings on sale are not bezels. Therefore, I escaped unscathed.

I almost got out unscathed too, I don't like 3 prong settings either. I got to do something a little different.

Yikes! How many pairs of studs does this make, Andelain?!

I talked to BGD and you don't need to get bezel settings. You can still get the discounts on the diamonds, just not on the bezel. They have to issue you a custom order though. I may have purchased 1 ctw BGD Blue studs in platinum bezels.

Congrats!!!!!! You can never have enough bling, that's my motto they are beautiful stones. Keep safe and I hope that you are feeling O.K.

This is what Leslie let me do, I paid regular price for the 8-prong settings, and got the discount on the stones. Not much overall diff in price, since the rocks make most of the cost. I'm getting these in yellow gold for a change of pace.

Which stones did you pick out?


DiamondSeeker, let's see. I have a pair of .67 each I SI-1 ACA's in 8-prongs, a pair of .42 each F SI-1 ACA's in 8-prongs, a pair of .25 CTW WF presets in 4-prongs. I also have 2 .25 each G SI-1 AVR's in Daniel M 6-prong settings that I never wear because he botched the settings badly. Up until I mailed them off to BGD a couple days ago I had a pair of .34 each G SI-2 BGD Sigs in the double 4-rong settings. I never liked that setting, so I'm getting the stones set in another set of drops like the ones here. The new drops will be shorter, and have double chains. I've also got the inbound .27 each F-SI-2 BGD Sigs and the inbound .53 each F SI-2 BGD Blues.



I've also got a pair of WF/JA danglies. .46 D SI-1/.47 E VS-2.

When you have everything I would love to see a family photo of the earrings. This is amazing! Such a collection. I saw the sale and was thinking maybe it's time for my first pair of studs!

I got these: http://www.briangavindiamonds.com/diamond_pair_comparisions/compared_diamond_details/BLAGS-104068959006/BLAGS-104068959010

My only concern is that one of the diamonds is 0.05mm bigger than the other. I hope that I don't notice the size difference.

Nice choices! I seriously doubt you'll see any difference at all, especially after they're set. Enjoy them!
