Long Time Lurker - Showing off my new ring!

[SydneyJen]

Hello everyone
I have been a lurker on these here boards for months and months, and wanted to (finally!) show off my new(ish) engagement ring. I am IN LOVE. I know a lot of people aren't oval fans, but to me it is all I ever wanted. Ovals seem so classically beautiful to me, and this baby could not be any more perfect in my eyes!

Stats: Centre is a 1.01 ct, IF, D, oval. Side stones are both VVS1. One side stone is 0.43ct, D clarity and the other is 0.45ct, E clarity.

The setting is 18k rose gold, with a platinum centre claw. All the stones were cut specifically for my ring and it was made for me specifically.

Hope you like!


Also, my fiance bought my wedding last weekend. The wedding isn't for another year but we both fell in love!'

Oh I disagree. Most people here are oval fans.

This is just beautiful and must be stunningly white in real life! Congrats!!!

Sorry, I meant D/E colour! Too many Cs for a newbie

 

[SydneyJen]

Thank you! I know ovals aren't a particularly popular cut, and maybe it's stood out to me that most people have rounds/princess cut stones. Anyway, point is, yes it is SO white IRL. The stone is set quite high so it catches lots of light and it is so sparkly. Listen to me gushing. It must be love.

Beautiful ring!!!! What ring size are you if you don't mind me asking?

 

[SydneyJen]

Thank you!! I'm in Australia and it is a K, which I think is around a 5 - 5.5.

You should be in love! That's a special ring. Such high specs AND a well cut stone. And shoot, those stones take up your whole fighter! Just great.

No problem!!! I am an Aussie as well. I am a J which is 4 and 3/4s.... You have smaller fingers too!!!

Pretty set! I love pear side stones! Can you tell me more about the stacking band too?
