Hello Friends,

My Ritani reset from Pearlman's arrived on Saturday. I couldn't be happier. Now, for a little Oscar style acceptance speech . . .

I'd like to thank my DH who puts up with me and spoils me rotten. The ordeal started about a year ago when I broke my original thin yellow gold band opening a pickle jar. When I reset my stone into a thick platinum band, a chip in the girdle appeared. (I suspect the jeweler chipped the diamond during the reset, but have no proof.) Luckily, I had insurance. The new stone faces up a little smaller, but it's a much better cut and has a GIA cert. The thick platinum band never grew on me. I missed my dainty thin band. For my 40th birthday, my sweet DH gave me a budget to reset my stone. (First, he printed up a photo of the ugliest ring he could find and wrapped it in a jewelry box with a note that said that he knew I was unhappy with the new setting and that this beauty was on it's way!)

Next, I'd like to thank Julian Chase at Pearlman's Jewelers. Julian was a joy to work with. He worked with my budget and kept me informed every step of the way. Pearlman's had the very best price on Ritani. I would never shop anywhere else for designer jewelry.

Now, without further ado, some photos. It's a 1.39 ct, I color, SI1. The setting it the Ritani Classic, also known as the Endless Love without the Halo, in platinum. Ring size 5.75.

I love these side shots, (even though they're blurry.)

Last one. I love that Pearlman's box! (I'm sorry for the blur!) I have to say that these photos don't do the rings justice. They are so white and sparkly. They're much prettier in person!

Thank you for all the lovely comments. My husband really is a doll. He makes me laugh every day. The sun came out and I was able to take a couple of clear shots. We don''t have any flowers in the garden this time of year, but here''s a plant shot.

gorgeous and classic! yay!
 
Beautiful reset-so glad you finally found one you love-it so very beautiful
 
I forgot to properly thank my fellow PSers. (Very Oscar-esque of me to do!) I''ve been lurking here ever since I broke my original set. I fell in love with the Ritani at a local brick ''n mortar, but I was wise enough to check with Pearlman''s thanks to Pricescope. (The cost savings was significant.) I also "visited" my rings often on other PS fingers while I waited for mine to arrive. What a great community. Thank you for your compliments and for sharing your beautiful jewelry.

I told my DH that everything is better with something pretty on your finger. I just love the way my rings look as I push the shopping cart around the market!
 
Congrtulations! It''s gorgeous!
 
Gaaawwwgeous dahling!!
