Happy New Year and congratulations, Katrina. I love your ring. I had considered a Danhov setting when I was shopping for my setting upgrade. It''s really beautiful, and I like the scalloped edges of the diamonds -- very delicate.

Never too many pics at PS. We like to see all angles and lighting. Keep ''em coming!!!!!

 

[katrina_33]

Thanks everyone! I asked him about the stats, and it''s G VS2, but he actually can''t remember the carat weight of the center of all things- he thinks 1.8 but we''ll look at the cert when we get home.

 

[AndyRosse]

Wow, wow....I honestly needed to take a five minute break after seeing all that bling! Your ring is just absolutely stunning! No, GORGEOUS!!!

Congratulations on your engagement!!

And remember, we can never have too many pictures of such a lovely ring

Katrina, it''s beautiful and has such a unique look to it. I agree with everyone on how nice the scalloped edges make it look. Congrats!

I absolutely ADORE your ring. Wear it in the best of health. Be careful when you snowbard with that thing.

While I was at Killington this past week I saw a flyer from a woman who lost her e-ring on the slopes. I was heartbroken for her.

Thanks, you''re quick!

My friend has made me institute a ''one picture via email, more available upon request'' policy for sending pictures to friends and family via email, so sad!

Jealousy is so ugly, isn''t it??!!!
Best wishes on your engagement and wear your stunning sparkler in good health and happiness!

I agree. I would just take that lovely honker and pay her a visit being sure to talk and gesture with my hands as much as possible.

Just wait til this friend has kids and bombards everyone with baby pics! Make sure and remind her of her ''Policy''.

Whoo-ha!! This cracked me up!!

LOVELY RING. I went straight to the Danhov site to see if their new collection was posted. (Sadly NO!!) It''s just so delicate & flawless - yet a WHOPPER! Please report back with all the stats when you get home so we have a chance to drool some more.

Never too many PIX!

While I was at Killington this past week I saw a flyer from a woman who lost her e-ring on the slopes. I was heartbroken for her.

I was SO careful, I went out today, but it was a big debate over what to do with it - wear under gloves, leave locked in car (we had to check out of the condo before we hit the slopes and left town) or check my purse at a basket check in the lodge with the ring in it. I went with the third option. I can''t imagine wearing it under snowboarding gloves and ripping them on and off all day, but people do it all the time!

Thanks again everyone for your kind words. I am over the moon about the ring, just now getting to really tinker with it in the fun spotlights in our house, etc. I checked it out with my idealscope I have here at home, and it looks awesome!

 

[katrina_33]

and ms flutter, thanks for the knot shout out! ; ) I LOVE your ring too. i was thinking of maybe a wedding band that alternates rubies or sapphires with diamonds and am increasingly leaning toward rubies, it''s such a warm wonderful color perfect for wedding jewelry I think!

 

[katrina_33]

Hi All,

I saw the certificate last night and have all of the info now - here are the stats

1.71 Carat
G
VS2
GIA EX / EX (But, with all Sarin info, and Jim Schultz made sure that the angles fell into AGS 000 territory)

Measures 7.68 - 7.72

If anyone cares to see all of the angles I can post them too, the cert came with a separate lamanated thing from GIA with all angle information, is this a new practice?

 

[ChargerGrrl]

What a gorgeous ring! I''m loving all the new halos!

Your proposal story is great. Mammoth is one of my favorite places- it''s so very magical!

I hope you had great snow conditions for skiing (then again, I''m sure that NOTHING could put a damper on your spirits!)

 

[Shay37]

OMG, your ring is GORGEOUS. I am partial to a beautiful halo don''t ya know?

Congrats and best wishes. BTW, asking if it''s too many pics is like asking how many diamonds are enough.

shay

 

[Patty]

Wow, it''s stunning!

I love the side view of it.
