Soooooo... I was out shopping at a second hand store and beautiful little trinket caught my eye and I couldn't resist!

I'm not a huge fan of the setting, it's 14k unplated white gold and it's a bit too delicate for my taste. The setting is all hollowed out underneath so it just feels so light and unsubstantial! I'm hoping to get it reset into a simple solitaire sometime in the new year.

I've never owned a square cut before, and found the colour so delicate and enchanting! It looks like a little lemon drop, I think! I know lower/warm/yellow coloured stones are sometimes sniffed at, but I think they are a breath of fresh air! This little beauty was written up as 0.98 S-T radiant cut!

What do y'all think of the non-fancy yellows? Anyone else have one to share?

P.S. it's not an engagement ring! I wear it on my RH ring finger, but my left hand was too shaky at taking photos :rodent:

I think it is cool it's facing like a very light fancy yellow!!!! Does it have a cup underneath? If not you might be able to add one and make it even more yellow looking...
 
Very very pretty!
 
Very cool! I agree with arkieb that it almost looks like a light fancy. I have an S-T stone too ::) It's fun to observe how it changes its appearance in different lighting situations. I think the color in your stone may be accentuated by the white diamonds on the sides. Contrast really brings out the color.
 
I have Y-Z yellow diamond bezel dangle earrings. You can really enhance the yellow by setting in yellow gold with bezels or a yellow gold cup. Either way the diamond looks lovely! If you re-set you could send it to GIA before you get it set to get a proper certificate.
 
Love it. Looks like lemonade!
 
I think it's a lovely diamond, and ring.

BTW, your hands look really elegant.
 
the diamond ring looks great... i reckon i could rock that ring!!!! =)

I did have a light yellow OP/ ST OEC ring. I will try and post a pic of it.
0.65ct in 18k white gold square bezel and fishtail prongs with 18k YG band.
unfortunately, it has spent more time at the jewellers to have it corrected to the specs that i wanted. they have now rescinded making that ring and i have a full refund. so, looking for another jeweller.
