Hi Everyone,
I'm so excited to share with you my new 1.46ct cognac pear-shaped diamond! I've wanted one of these forever - and a pear is my all-time favorite shape. Our 10th wedding anniversary is approaching this year and I'm going to have this set into a ring to commemorate the special event! It's a C5-C6, eye-clean SI-2. 8.83 x 5.26 x 4.09. Australian origin. So excited! :appl:

Ooooooooooo! Lovely! :love: :appl: I see it in rose gold... but that's just me! Thinking of a pendant? Ring? My 10th is coming up in a couple years! :lol: I am already planning... although we really want a trip... but a trip AND new bling would be awesome!
 
oops! Sorry! I missed that you had already mentioned a ring! looking forward to seeing it set!
 
Thank you!

Yes! Rose Gold ring! Still coming up with the designs!
 
Very nice color. It reminds me of Coca Cola. I also love pears. Such great finger coverage for the size. How are you going to have it set? Halo, solitaire, halo, three stone, halo... :bigsmile:
 
Thats just beautiful! I've always felt like pear shapes were under appreciated.
 
It will be a stunning combination in rose gold - or in yellow gold for that matter.
 
OOOOOHHHH I love it! Congrats on your anniversary, and count me in the rose gold fan club!
 
What a gorgeous color, and cut. Great size too. Happy 10th!!
 
Beautiful!
I really like that color too.
 
Thank you! You are all so sweet. My friends/family Do Not Get the whole gems and jewelry "thing" so it's extra nice to have all of my PS friends to share with when I get a new toy!

My current idea is to have it set into a 14kt rose gold ring. I am pear-obsessed so I'm thinking of making it a 3 stone ring with 2 smaller white pear shaped diamonds. A friend of mine is a jeweler/metalsmith and sets all of my stones for me, so I'll talk with her in a few months and see what we can come up with together.

I'm very excited to have a cognac diamond after all of these many years!
 
It's a beautiful gem and should look stunning set - congratulations!

As an Aussie, I can still remember the huge Champagne and Cognac marketing push by Argyle to make these more desirable to the consumer who only thinks in terms of white diamonds ( I think chocolate came later and possible from the US).

Some of the cognacs are truly stunning as yours seems to be :)) Looking forward to your setting ideas.
 
I like that dark whisky colour (sounds better than coca cola :lol: ).
