Say hello to sweet Dee

[JPie]

In January, I spotted a beautiful antique oval on Gilded Lane’a IG stories. It has a pale pink hue and captured my imagination enough that I set an alarm to check back when it was available.

I managed to snag her right in time. She’s 1.07 carats and at least an SI1, and eye clean.

I took a leap of faith and had Gilded Lane send the diamond straight to Caysie to set. I had no doubt that I wanted her Lumiere setting. She has a rose gold cup around the girdle and partway down the pavilion to enhance the pink color.

I asked myself a few times during the wait whether I was nuts to buy and set a diamond without seeing it in person first. You can see from Gilded Lane’s videos that this oval is like a chameleon - sometimes pink, sometimes peach, maybe even a little gray.

Thankfully my gamble paid off and she looks pink most of the time!

Perfect, wow! The cut on that oval alone is so great, then add pink tint and Cassie’s Lumiere. Superb ring!! Beautiful photos too, thanks for sharing.

Ps can you tell us about the lovely velvet box?

Thank you! Her bench really knocked this out of the park. The finish feels like butter and delightfully substantial.

I’m a bit curious what the GIA would’ve graded this, but I was cheap and lazy about sending it there.

Oh my!! Fit for a Princess! It's beautiful!

 

[fiona00004]

Oh and that setting is absolutely amazing. Such great taste!

Wowza! That's gorgeous!!

Hello Sweet Dee! This is a perfect pairing! I have the Lumiere saved from CvB's Instagram, the one with the pink sapphire center. It really works exceptionally well with a colored center, probably because of the bezel. I wonder why Caysie doesn't show this setting on her website.

BTW you're so brave to set the stone sight unseen! Don't you miss seeing her naked first? I also would've gotten it GIA graded out of curiosity. Well you knocked it out of the park!

 

[JPie]

Wowza! That's gorgeous!!

Thank you! She’s worth being on Ban Island for.

I think we must have the same Lumiere photos saved! I didn’t know she has a website.

I figured that she passed through some professionals before getting to me, and if they didn’t bother sending her to the GIA, then it’s probably because her report wouldn’t have increased her value, like an M with faint brown. My curiosity wasn’t worth much to me and impatience also played a factor.

Dee for delightful??! She's absolutely gorgeous and that setting is perfect for her. Fabulous choice all around.
