I am not sure I was completely sane either. It’s arriving January 6th!!!!! Then starts the LOOOOONG wait. I feel almost like a lady in waiting.
On one hand it is scary to release the reins… but I do think there were some benefits to him taking over.
1. I was originally looking at a smaller stone (I was hoping for a 3.3 carat, H, VS2, super ideal) in a Leon Mege setting. And the stone he decided on is larger.
2. I think I had very little idea of what I wanted. For example…. I originally asked for a squared off band. Then Leon suggested rounded… I thought I wanted the diamond set high… then realized maybe that might be too high. Etc etc. Leon did agree to set the diamond as I requested (2 mm higher) but when I changed my mind, he said “thank god!” It required a bit of a restart but he didn’t like the aesthetics of my original request.
Ultimately I think it would have been too much stress to determine what would look “nice”. It will be a completely Leon ring. At the end… we didn’t go with any of my original requests
That’s so exciting! My current engagement ring was crafted by Leon Mege and I absolutely love it! I’m looking to upgrade my engagement ring this year and plan on getting Leon Mege to create the setting again.
I can’t wait to see pictures of your ring when you get it!!
When is this d@mn ring arriving??
Did I miss that part?
Hope you're ok.
Tomorrow before 12!!! I don’t know if he’s giving it to me though.
Put him on. I'll talk to him.
No way dude. Pass the ring over.
It was better when I didn’t know. LOL. One day… if he leaves me alone in the house….. I’m tempted to do a systematic search of the house. LOL.
He might give it to me February 14….
Sigh. My husband said maybe I could take a look…
It was shipped priority overnight… was supposed to arrive today before 12 but appears stuck in Memphis, Tenn.
So close…. But not yet
Oh gosh, shipping is still so crazy! It’s so inconvenient having to wait for a package that’s delayed! Definitely look at it and try it on! (Of course, it should be a little loose now if you live where there’s cold weather!) I hope he doesn’t wait long to give it to you! I don’t believe in beautiful jewelry to be hidden away for months!
Watching this thread and waiting with you. So impatient to see this. Am honestly on the edge of my seat here.
I swear on PS understand the pain of this.
I think I need to mentally give up for this week. The package only has week day delivery…. So unless it moves soon, will go to Monday.
Nooooooooo!!!! You NEED this package.
So.
Its here. My husband looked at it. All he said was:
1. diamond does not look yellow (I was worried as I heard that larger carat weight show more color and it’s an H
2. The diamond band is slightly thinner then my previous engagement ring (due to no miligrain)
3. The halo is thinner then my old engagement ring.
4. As neither of us have actually seen any 3 carat stone… he feels that it’s not suitable for everyday wear.
The waiting begins.
and Yes! Leon does take pictures. But my husband is refusing to let me see. From the way he’s talking…. I’m not seeing it anytime soon.
I think your husband is being cruel to you unless there’s a logical reason that he’s withholding it for!
