Hi everyone,

Long time no see! I wanted to pop in and share my new BGD grace solitaire. I currently have a 3 stone and a halo e-ring that I rotate as well as an eternity band, but I was really craving something simple for an e-ring and have wanted a solitaire.

I love love love the old cuts, and have an OEC pendant set by BGD in a RG that I wear daily and I haven't looked at a RB since! I knew what I wanted as my solitaire was going to be a warm colored OEC.

As always I was thrilled with everyone at BGD, Denise and Lesley are wonderful and there will be many more projects in the future with them :naughty:

Wow- a 3 stone, halo, eternity band AND now an old cut!!! Lucky gal!!!! :bigsmile:
 
Ahh, just what MrsS and I always say, we need more than one wedding set!!! :appl: Glad we aren't the only ones who think that way!

It looks beautiful and I SO would love to have an OEC or antique cushion! :love: Can't wait to see more pics!

Heck no you aren't the only ones that think like that!! The only disadvantage to multiple sets is if I would have spent all that money on one ring it could have been a massive honker! :eek:

I can't wait to see it in person tomorrow!!!
 
It's so beautiful! I love oec and warmer colors in general. I can't wait to see more pics. I love that it's a solitaire my favorite.
 
Love the ring!! Where was the stone sourced from?
 
I so cannot wait for more pics!! It looks beautiful!!
 
It looks gorgeous! I love the warm color! Can't wait for the handshots!
 
It is indeed beautiful, and I can't wait to see your hand shot. Please also take photos with your others. I have always wanted to see
a fire shot with different cuts IRL. I love the color as well, very champagne! Beautiful beautiful!

I agree that multiple wedding sets are needed by all. I love to rotate my rings!

Can I ask where you purchased your lovely stone?
 
It looks amazing!I can't wait for the handshots!!!
 
Hi Everyone,

Thanks for all the replies! My ring made it home today and :love:

I have a couple different bands to wear and I am trying to decide which I like best until I get my new bands from BGD. I am getting two dream bands made from BGD but I am having them use j/k stones vs. their typical icy white stones to better compliment the warm color of my OEC. I will be wearing the dream bands on both sides of the Grace. But until then, I think I like the double rolling ring better than my antique engraved band. What does everyone else think?

On to hand shots!!!

Wow, what a beautiful stone! ::)
 
Thanks Tuskins!

Here is another shot with weird indoor iphone lighting. The stone certainly has a tint but it isn't THIS yellow :eek:

WOW!!!!! Stunning diamond and setting - it looks gorgeous on you!!!!! :love: :love: :love: :bigsmile:

Thank you for posting hand shots :appl:
 
What a beautiful stone and ring. Q

I am looking at lower color diamonds can you tell me if yours shows brown or yellow color?

Thank you.

It's gorgeous! It will look great between 2 dream wb's.
 
It looks wonderful! I also love old cuts in warmer colors and think it will look amazing paired with j-k bands. I can't wait to see the pictures :love: !
 
*Beautiful* ring!! I think older cuts are just perfect in creamy colours, and the simple setting lets your stone take center seat :lickout: :sun:
 
Wonderful ring!!! Love the older cuts also and the Grace is such a beautiful setting! Great choice!

Enjoy!

Cachette :))

Hi DiaLuv,

It shows a champagne/light yellow tint. There is no brown, but every stone is different!
 
In case any one was still interested, I took pictures with my two RG bands, and another hand shot of the grace alone...
