It''s DONE!

[Brilyant]

So after months of research and thought, my fiance''s ring is done - now to get the proposal done

Here are some pics I snapped in secrecy this morning... I''ll have finger shots, better shots, etc. after I propose.

Another angle.

And another... the ring is pure white in real life - kind of hard to capture on camera with such a lens that I''m using.

Thanks!

It''s a Sholdt setting, directly from Sholdt. It''s a Euro squared comfort shank (dunno if you can tell from the pics).

Thanks, Sparkles.

I love the ring, so I hope she loves it as well. It''s so hard to photograph rings (I do photography as a hobby and never photographed jewelry before); very difficult to capture the sparkle and such. All of these pics were taken with just window light in a big hurry before my gf woke up, hah. Hopefully I''ll get better pics up SOON.

 

[Sparkles22]

It can be very hard to photograph jewelry (especially the sparkles)! I think you took some terrific photos, you can really see the beautiful details on the ring.

THANK YOU, EVERYONE! Even though I know the ring looks great, it''s still nice to hear that others think so, too.

I forgot to say thanks to every person who answered all my questions and addressed all my concerns before, during, and after the purchase. Couldn''t have done it without you guys.
