It's been 2 whole days since my now FIANCE proposed to me, and like most brides-to-be, I'm pretty obsessed with my new sparkly! My friend suggested sharing it on here, so I hope you all enjoy the pics!
The setting is a custom design made from the fusion of having seen a Ritani modern bypass micropave ring (see here: http://www.ritani.com/engagement-rings/modern-bypass-micropave-diamond-band-engagement-ring-in-platinum/4962) and the Tacori 2547 (see here: http://www.tacori.com/ht2547rd7.html). I liked elements of both, so I talked to a local jewelry designer who made my vision into the reality you see here!
As for the main stone, it was passed down my dad's side for 5 generations, and was formerly my mom's before she passed away this year. I feel so honored to be able to have it in my engagement ring, and I have to say, it's pretty awesome too! It's an old mine cut, 1.46 carats, and K color, VS2. To be honest, I don't care so much about the specs, I'd be thrilled with anything that meant as much as this ring does to me, but I'm happy to share! There are 20 smaller stones in band and 18 in the "halo" (all G-H/VS1), and it's made of platinum. Oh yea, and my finger is a 5 1/2 for reference.
I think I have better pics at home of the OMC, but those will have to wait.
