I just confirmed with Leon that I am sending my stone out to him for setting in a platinum mounting with the stepped flanking baguettes! I''m so excited!!

That is fantastic - I''m so excited too! I can''t wait to see the finished ring!!

Can''t wait to see it. It will be gorgeous.

The baguettes are so classic! I voted for them before I read the thread and I am so glad you choose them!

I''m sure everything will work out perfectly!!!! Did he give you a time frame? (my apologies if you already answered this earlier and I missed it)

 

[Upgradable]

Not yet. When he gets it he''ll give me a call and we''ll discuss the mounting. Then he''ll start looking for a set of side stones. Once I agree on the sides, then I''ll have to sign the work order. It should be 6 weeks after the signed work order.

That is so exciting Uppy! Sending Leon anti-diva dust your way.

 

[MakingTheGrade]

So excited for you Uppy! I can''t wait to see the finished result!

 

[alene]

What an exciting project! Look forward to seeing the final product!

Update: I've pulled the plug on the Leon mounting. There were a couple of reasons, the primary being I didn't know when I would be able to get the ring paid off. There were some other weird situations and communications with Leon's crew that made me uneasy. I don't know if it is appropriate to share here or in a new thread?

my personal choice for such a girly color would be a not so girly (round) shape, like a trillion. but it's going to stay this oval shape right? then i like the first setting: clean, with maybe just one baguette at either side. but it will be gorgeous on your hand no matter what setting!
