I''m engaged and so happy we went with WhiteFlash!

[joyfulbarry]

My fiancé proposed on a trip to Venezuela on New Years Eve! It was absolutely wonderful. I posted the story in LIW. Now onto the ring……

It is the Legato Sleek Line setting from Whiteflash in white gold and it is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! Honestly, I’m just blown away by it. Everyone I show it to actually gasps! The diamond sparkles like crazy!

Here are the stats and a few photos:

1.3 ct. ACA from WhiteFlash
J color
VS2 Clarity

My fiancé enjoyed working with WF. He was hesitant to order something so special and so expensive online, but he is glad that he did. We both think that this diamond sparkles much more than what we saw in local b&ms. Also, I was very hesitant about the J color and now I am so, so, so, happy that we went with a J. It is completely white looking in my opinion (and I think I’m pretty color sensitive.) I’m sure that the H&A cut helps with that. Also, the cut is so superb and I definitely notice that my 1.3 ct stone looks much larger than a friends 1.1ct Leo diamond. She couldn’t believe that it was 1.3, she thought it had to be at least 1.5 cts. Everyone that sees it comments on how sparkly it is. It catches everyone’s eye! I’m very happy that we went with WF and one of their ACA stones!

It sure is hard to take good pictures! I can’t seem to capture the sparkle and my ring is so sparkly.
