Gratuitous dog shot because he’s never far from my side.

It is so stunning. The color is so intense! Love everything about it

*thud* that is incredible!!!: Everything about it is perfect!

You should duplicate it with that paraiba YAG you've got.

Love the ring and your puppy’s sweet little face!!!

No offense to the gorgeous ring, but his lovely face sort of takes center stage here what a lovely squish!

I am seriously in awe of how vivid the emerald is. I can’t even see the inclusions. It is just freaking gorgeous and I am so jealous.

There won't be any inclusions - it's synthetic.

There are some small inclusions because it’s lab grown. They are really only visible up close / under a loupe though. That’s part of the fun because I certainly wouldn’t be able to afford an eye clean, natural emerald.

A couple more pics. Grey skies today.

This. Is. Gorgeous! I love it, beautiful job both in planning and execution!

Thank you!

Soooo gorgeous! It's stunning, the proportions of the side stones are perfect and I love the double claw prongs

Thank you! I felt like the emerald just needed double claw prongs.

Happy belated grats to your anniversary ring. It looks beautiful, but I suspect you knew that already.

It’s not technically an anniversary ring but I’m happy to go with that excuse, since it lines up so perfectly.

It is so stunning. The color is so intense! Love everything about it

Thank you! Gene’s cutting really brings the color to life.

You should duplicate it with that paraiba YAG you've got.

Don’t think I haven’t considered it.

Love the ring and your puppy’s sweet little face!!!

Thank you for both. He likes to sit next to me while I take jewelry pics. Ok, he likes to sit next to me all the time.

Aw, thank you so much. He’s my baby and I totally agree with you. Even sparkly things could never compete with sweet faces of our fur-babies.

I am seriously in awe of how vivid the emerald is. I can’t even see the inclusions. It is just freaking gorgeous and I am so jealous.

Thank you. It really is such a vivid color in person.

It's Beautiful Elle, glad you have some more green in your collection! What are the measurements of the stones? I really like the proportions.

Huge. Just kidding. It’s a 8.57mm cushion.

You’re too sweet but I totally agree. Gene was selling some pretty great material. Thank you for the compliment.

Wow. It's gorgeous and your emerald absolutely glows. Congratulations.

Aren’t you just the sweetest! Thank you...that really means a lot to me.
I love to play with settings (mostly halos, I must admit). Diamonds and colored gems = magic.

Ps. It’s Elle (pronounced Ellie).

 

[Daisys and Diamonds]

That face says “why is your hand up but not being used for pets?”

I know! I was trying to @ you and the darn autocorrect had other options. I’m total rubbish on the phone keyboard, makes me look like I can’t spell and don’t know what a period is.

Don’t I know it! Mine always autocorrects my “I Love You” to “I live you”....thank you autocorrect, but that’s not really what I’m going for.
