#TBT My 3.21ct AVR in Vatche

[sherryd]

Before I even clicked on this topic I said to myself "oh my god I'm going to pass out"! That ring is absolutely incredible, love it!

 

[Elysian]

Thanks so much for the lovely comments!!!

DS- Yes, I traded in my AVC as I do love rounds more. I have a weird ring finger, thin knuckle with a chubby bulge then small again closest to the hand. This finger also curves toward the middle. I think fancy shapes don't look quite right on me for those reasons.

I'm in love with this ring! I'm a solitaire girl at heart. I agree with those who said the stone and the setting complement each other, I couldn't be more satisfied. I love love love the stone… it's got a pink-brown undertone "hue" to it that I noticed instantly. I am extremely color sensitive. I love all tones of diamonds but this rosy hue makes my heart pitter patter. I tried to capture it in pictures the way I see it with my eyes, I hope it translates well on your computer screens.

Wow, so gorgeous!!! I love the color of that stone! I also love seeing the close up of your band!!! I am not sure I remember where you got that band???? Is it new or did you already have it?

Thanks, DS. The band is new from Israel Rose. I've been searching for a french cut band for what seems like ages and I hadn't checked their website in awhile but there she was. It was advertised as F color, VS, 2.25ct french cut diamond eternity in platinum. It's actually more than a whole size too big. Perfect for bloated days.

Geese Louise!!! I adore that subtle pink/brown tone. You are one lucky mama! And the french cut band is just perfect.

(DS, you need one!!)

[Elysian]

Congratulations Elysian on your very beautiful new ring. It's truly a stunning diamond and I know this because I saw it for myself when I visited GOG late last year. I imagine you won't be able to stop smiling every time you look at this fabulous, dazzling diamond on your finger. Hope it brings you much joy for many years to come.

Your ring is just drop dead gorgeous. More than anything we are happy that you are happy!

Warm regards,
