Beautiful and stunning! I saw it on Caysies peg and starred at it for the longest time. Best of health and happiness to you!

Thank you SO much @shoechick, @Alex T , @Bonfire, @LLJsmom, @MakingTheGrade , @MissGotRocks , @msop04 , @kayla17 , @tweeter8177, @foxinsox, @caf, @Sparkles88, @plad25, @kgizo, @soxfan , @lambskin, @HappyNewLife, @aac2013, @carbonfan, @luv2sparkle , @AprilBaby

I saw your ring on Caysie's IG, too, and I texted her to tell her how incredible it is...diamond and setting! I honestly had started a setting with her for my AVR a year or two ago and for some reason felt conflicted and went on to another project. But I did my shank and sides like you did on yours, so I was especially interested in seeing what kind of head you made. I made the same comment to her about wanting enough room to clean the pavilion of my diamond! Your ring and @ecf8503 's ring really both tempt me to go forward with resetting! Enjoy that gorgeous ring!

@diamondseeker2006 -Thank you! The basket was the toughest part! I knew I wanted 4 double prongs and swags and the shoulders and cuffs. The “ivy” part was the blank space that I struggled with for the longest time. If I were to do it over, I would maybe ask for “sqattier” (is that a word?) leaves, but that would change how the bottom of the triwires flare out, and I think they diverge at a great angle right now (from the side view) so goodness, I don’t know. You can’t change one element without affecting another! But you are really patient to keep searching for so long! I waited for almost 2 months and couldn’t stand it. I just had to take the leap!

Blindingly beautiful!!! The stone and setting are a perfect match for each other! And what terrific finger coverage! I love the Chloe!!! Believe it or not, I thought very seriously about having Caysie make one for my Lara! We talked about it, but I chickened out! I wish someone would try it with an EC!
Glad you grabbed the (proverbial) ring and went for what your heart desired-this literally GORGEOUS diamond ring!!!
Most importantly, wear it WELL! <3

@Blingalingaling- I would love to see an EC Chloe as well! It would be beautiful. But your Lara is so perfect in her classic setting! It’s like a Chanel, so perfect, epitome of class.

GORGEOUS!!!!

I especially love how the diamond is set in perfect height!
Could you tell me how high the top of the diamond from shank?

@wintotty - hi! I measured it in a very scientific method (ruler next to ring) and it looks like it’s about 9mm. My stone depth is 7.10mm.
I took a quick snap from the side; hopefully you can see where the culet is!

@Yimmers- more pictures, here you go!

Lovely facets and shape of stone! Looks great on you and hope your medical issues are past you now so you can just focus on your bling!

I LOVE this ring. This is my favorite setting of all time. If I ever get another stone that would do that setting justice I would do it in a heart-beat! (less)..

Your stone is timeless.. It's elegant.. it's really spectacular.. Wear it in good health you deserve it!

more more pix!
