More settings to consider...Help

[anika]

Also wanted to know, how do those designs with the swoopy bits under the stone "rosebud?" style work. Do you see the small diamonds from the top down so it acts like an illusion setting making the diamond look bigger or do you only see it from the side? Just curious...thanks

Deco,

These words are the true romance of jewelry. Male question here ladies. What do they say to you?

There are actually 2 tiny rows of pave that you see from the top and side views on the Daniel K. Don''t know what the other manufactures do.

Lovelylulu,

Glad to have been of service to you! Poo Huh?

Shay,

As I was reading your post I have you pictured....well....as a raving lunatic! Running around your computer with your arms flaling in the air, stomping your feet, leaving behind a trail of frothey drool. By all means...there will be a Shay warning in the future. We have got to redeem your reputation.

I am a raving lunatic on the proposal board...I cry like a baby every time.

Glad everyone like them. And I am very sorry to have added confusion to Mrssalvo decision. I did it for selfish reasons...I too want a cushion and thought I could vicariously get my cushion fix through hers.

DKS

Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. I mean that. If my husband sees me in that condition one more time, it''s Bellview here I come.

The Shay warning will do the trick nicely.

shay

Well, Bill, at first they whisper quietly... but they get louder and more persistent VERY fast! They say things like, "Oh, look at me, look at me! Aren't I beautiful? Aren't I sparkly?! Aren't I unique? Wouldn't I look gorgeous on your hand?! OH please buy me! I'm worth it! OH! Wear me! Take me home! Love me! Make me YOURS! You'll never be sorry!" Yep. That's what they say.

For 34 years I''ve watched women''s eyes tell me this. Most men will never understand that feeling. When I take my wife to the jewelry shows she actually gets depressed looking at all of the beautiful pieces. I just want to own them like a pirate.

I know you like the split shank, this is a double split shank (not sure if that is what it is called) but I thought it was very pretty.

 

[Tacori E-ring]

here is the side few

OMIGOD. Tacori! I followed your trail over to that site with Kirk Kara designs and this is exactly the one that caught my eye! I didn''t think of it for Mssalvo though ... you are ON IT!!! So unusual & delicate ... a real winner. I like that Kirk Kara guy ...

I did forget to mention it was a Kirk Kara

opps. Deco, his designs are amazing did you look at his band rings! It described this setting as "Fifty-one diamonds (0.73) are pavé set by master jewelers in the Kirk Kara studio. Available in Platinum or 18k White Gold" $2600 18kt WG, $3825 PLT.

Does anyone know how wide the whole shank is near the center stone?

Good question... what jewelry speak is!

Some make great accessories, and say 'hey, I'll be nice with that jacket' or 'wait a minute, don't you just need a new trinket today, life is short'. But then, some jewes are just part of me and would never tire of them - seein them feels like being reunited with an old friend

. These say 'let me hug you, we've been parted for so long!'. Weirdly enough, my jeweler seems to know better what will 'grow on me' than I do. Seriously, I may tire of something I dreamt of and chose myself, but not of his choices. Trying things on makes all the difference for me, and the old guy knows it all too well.

 

[Kim N]

Tacori, thanks for posting the details on the Kirk Kara! It looks even better (as if that were possible!) with the wedding band.
