Hello
I havent posted here in a looong time, Ive been behaving myself nicely actually Well except for just this one thing... lol
I had grown tired of my 5 stone engagement ring and decided on a re-set. We just recently bought a new house so already that put me on a tighter budget. I contacted LOGR for a price on a custom design. I photoshopped a few photos of the design I had in mind, sent it to them and agreed on a price. They sent me photos from sketch to wax and it was cool to see it come to life. They didnt send me a photo after the setting was finished which i was a bit peeved about, I had to wait to see it in person. The whole process took about 2 weeks from sketch to opening the package. I have to say, I am VERY impressed. I've won a few auctions of theirs over the years and at times they arent always perfect but nice enough for the price IYKWIM. But this, WOW! As part of the deal I stated that all diamonds were to be bright, clear and not discoloured and if even one was "off" Id be returning it. I was kind of expecting something to remind me it was a LOGR ring but to be honest, the ring is heavy, all the diamonds are bright, the ring is well made and nothing is "off" so Im completely happy I took the plunge.
While I was expecting my diamonds to look a little bigger with a bezel and a halo, I wasnt quite prepared for how HUGE they look now in comparison! I have big fingers (size 9.25) and even as a 3 stone I get plenty of finger coverage which Im not yet used to... But that cant be a bad thing right? Might keep the diamond shrinkage at bay for a little longer...
I only have 3 photos at the moment (all of them taken with the main diamonds unset) so I'll get around to posting the compulsory hand shots soon hopefully They have been edited on my iphone so the colours are a little off, they are the only ones I have at hand though and Im busting to share.
The main diamond is 1.03ct - sides are half carat each
Thanks for looking!
