Greetings! I wish I'm posting this thread under better circumstances... Now I can only hope this will bring something happy and relaxing to the current isolation life.
I posted a month or two ago asking which diamond I should pick for my upgrade. Here's the post.
I guess my timing couldn't be any worse. When I finally made the call to Whiteflash, I was told my preferred setting Vatche U-113 won't be available due to the shutdown in NY. I was ready to wait for a month or two for the setting, then Brittany at WF offered an available setting - Exquisite Half Round Solitaire. With the promise the setting can be switched later if I'm not happy with it, I pulled the trigger and ordered this setting instead.
After visual inspection on several diamonds, I got confirmation that the VS2 stone is indeed eye clean, so there's no need to spend $5k more to get the VS1. So here is my pick: 2.5ct, G, VS2, HCA = 0.9. Here's the diamond link if you are interested.
I was so worried the night before I received the ring - what if it doesn't look as good? Is this going to be a huge waste of money? But after I opened the box, it was just happiness afterwards.
The diamond is so much bigger than I thought, and so sparkly! I can't stop giggling. So happy with the upgrade!
The photographer couldn't take the diamond photos due to quarantine, so my husband has to be the photographer here. And he's done a great job! Below are the much anticipated photos.
On my hand...
Comparison with my previous halo ring (0.91ct, J, vs2)
Last but not least, a photo I took on my phone, which shows the diamond size more realistically. My finger is 4.75 by the way.
Thanks for all the help this forum provided me, I learned so much! Also thanks for letting me share!
