My 2ct fireball!
Love the way your halo has the prongs arranged to give the bubbly, flower petal halo effect <3
Beautiful
Love your ring and wedding band!!
Hi all!
This is my first lab grown diamond (and first emerald cut) purchase and I wanted opinions!
Purchased from Ritani (diamond page)
Not sure what to look for, scoured the threads here about ECs and aside from numbers/proportions/steps on & off, the main advice was to see it in person
Can you pls let me know if I should keep it or continue my search? This will go in my original ER setting (I am getting it reset by DK). Still feeling a bit sentimental about letting go of the ring my husband chose for me (on his own, nonetheless), so decided to stick an LG stone in it for the meantime and wear as a RH or travel ring.
Please me know if there are any additional photos/videos for me to take in order to evaluate it better, thank you!

Just gorgeous! I love the settings.
my LGD solitaires:
Left to Right & Top to Bottom:
4.01ct E/VVS2 MRB
11.47 H/VS2 radiant
10.22 G/VS1 emerald
3.69 D/VVS1 MRB
6.01 E/VVS2 oval
5.04 E/VVS2 pear
5.01 D/VVS1 MRB
10.12 G/SI1 oval
4.15 E/VVS2 emerald
I also have an oval diamond eternity band (0.4ct per diamond) & a pair of 6ctw E/VS1 MRB studs
I'm hoping to add a 15ct - 25ct emerald cut, radiant, or elongated cushion soon.
And possibly a 6.5ct - 10ct MRB.
This is by far the most insane collection of diamonds I have ever seen!
I'm happy that even billionaires like you have time and fun to share their beauties with us, otherwise we would never see thinks like that!
DK shipped at lightening speed and I got my happy mail. It was my first time working with them and I can definitely see myself going back for many more future projects! I had some personal concerns about the shade of yellow gold, if being set in YG would deter from the bling, comfort, and potential high profile of the ring...but so far it looks perfect and it is the wall of bling that I wanted to see on my finger.
I also misspoke on the ctw above since I omitted my 0.47ct center earth mined MRB .
Here is my 2.48 ctw five-stone ring in 18K yellow gold (estimated G color and SI1). Sized between 6.5 and 6.75 so I can wear it comfortably as a RHR alone, a stack, or on my left with some temp size adjusters (open to any recommendations of size adjusters PS-ers might have here!).
Alas, I hoped that perhaps it would look "decent" enough with my WG halo solitaire, but they are definitely not a good match together and so it will have to be worn alone until I can fund my future upgrade.
Earth-mined plucked out of this pendant (they also re-created this pendant with a larger inherited MRB at the same time this ring was made):
Then placed in center of the five stone for identification, DK did a great job sourcing four perfectly matching MMD for this ring
Oh how beautiful! I love that tourmaline!!
Gorgeous in the buttery yellow gold!
I was always curious on how comfortable this type of setting is. Any feedback even though you haven’t had it too long? I sometimes consider making a toi et moi in the future.
I think you got yourself a lovely asscher there!!
