I am so happy I stumbled upon Pricescope all these months ago! I''ve learned so much about diamond quality and diamond care and was able to educate (prod...) my amazing but clueless BF on the ins and outs of the e-ring buying process. I guarantee that my ring would be half as nice as what we ended up with if not for PS. Thank you, Pricescope experts!!!

I''ve been lurking for a long time and only officially joined a few weeks back. I never dreamed I''d be getting my ring so soon, but DBF (now fiance!!!) managed to surprise me...even though I had more or less picked out all the components of the ring! We chose Whiteflash for the center stone, but I had fallen in love with a setting from a designer in NYC. My boy wanted to produce the whole thing at WF; I was hesitant and concerned that the design wouldn''t live up to what I had set my mind and heart on. I was silly to question!! My DBF moved forward with having WF custom design a setting like the one I wanted -- and it is perfect! I can''t imagine having anything else. The ACA diamonds in the melee portion of my setting enhance my center stone and I love seeing all the arrows in those tiny sparklers!! I could only get that from our friends at Whiteflash.

We got engaged over Valentine''s Day while on a surprise ski trip to Colorado. Just me, the softly falling snow, the love of my life, and my gorgeous ring!!

STATS:
0.94 I VVS2 RB from Whiteflash''s Expert Selection
AGS Cert
Setting is 0.75 ctw in ACA melee, all F/G VS, in platinum


It''s not huge like some of the wild ones we see so often on PS, but it''s all MINE! And I love it.

*tear tear* sounds like it was an absolutely beautiful proposal! congratulations uptown_girl!!!!

that custom setting is fabulous!!!

That''s fire...right?!

It certainly is.

Great shot.


And wow, I am drooling over your ring. I love it, and don''t think I''ve ever seen one quite like it. So unique, so well proportioned, and the lines just flow with a definite gracefullness. Beautiful!

Congrats, you''ve got a stunner there!

I am in LOVE with your setting!
It''s very much what I might want to do with the resetting of my diamond.
WF did an amazing job.
I might need to reconsider the setting I''d picked out and see if WF could do a custom job
for us.

Congratulations!
A truly STUNNING ring!
