Hi everyone! My fiance & I were engaged on December 18th & we owe our gorgeous engagement ring to all of you here at PS! Had I not found this site, we probably would have ended up with a hum-drum maul ring- prior to our research, we had never heard of AGS 0''s, H&As, IS, ASETs, etc. etc. So first of all, thank you for posting your wealth of knowledge here & educating so many about diamonds!

I read about Dimend Scaasi through a Chicago search & we purchased our diamond from them. I have nothing but great things to say about Isaac & Alexa. They were helpful from the very beginning, back in April when we first stepped into their gallery. They were never pushy for a moment, had a great variety of settings & were very quick to answer all of our questions, even late at night. We initially thought that the Infinity line of diamonds would be out of our reach, but we were able to make it work & I am SO glad we did! I would *highly recommend* Dimend Scaasi to anyone. AND, during our second visit, Isaac was kind enough to let me play with all of his goodies- rings, bracelets...he''s got a fantastic selection from all over the world- gorgeous pieces.

Our setting was made by Maytal Hannah &, according to my fiance, she was great to work with. We had an "inspiration piece" in mind when we contacted her & we agree that the final product was better than we had hoped for. Her work is excellent, fine, dainty & delicate yet so polished.

Here are the stats before I post pictures!

Center Stone:
Shape: Round Brilliant
Weight: 1.538 Ct.
Colour: H
Clarity: VS2
Cut Grade: AGS0 /H&A/ Crafted by Infinity
Measurements: 7.38 - 7.46 x 4.57 mm
Fluorescence: Negligible
Table Size: 55.5 %
Total Depth: 61.6 %
Pavilion Angle: 40.7 °
Crown Angle: 34.6 °

Setting
Platinum rosebud setting
.52 tcw- F/G color, VS clarity
Ideal cut
Bead set pave
The shank is about 1.8mm thick- very thin but it feels sturdy on my finger!
Size 4.75

I now wish I had asked for a better camera for Christmas because mine doesn''t do this ring justice! I am definitely finding it difficult to capture the ring up close & personal, even on macro mode, and some of the pictures that have come out make the ring look way bulkier than it is! I guess I''m preaching to the choir, aren''t I? Anyway, on to the pics!

Here she is, shining like our Christmas tree lights! My friends all asked what shape the diamond was- no one thought it was a round because of the sparkle! Ahhh, so many to educate about Ideal cut!

the fire on this diamond is incredible, but super elusive to the camera

Thank you Coati & Dreamer! We are both really thrilled to be engaged and, of course, with how the ring turned out! It turned out to be a really fun & educational process...and we are both nerdy & love to learn.

Congratulations! Your ring is gorgeous!

I contacted Maytal for a Rosebud replica a few months ago but decided to go with Leon''s simpler design as it''s more affordable and I simply

Having said that, I still think that the Rosebud looks nicer with a bigger stone like yours!
