I took some pictures of a ring that my Mom gave me a few years ago. I had it appraised and the centre diamond is .45 G I1 the side diamonds are .14ct each I/J I1. The centre stone is very pretty to me. The side stones, not so much. They are deeply cut and very "dark". I have thought about having them replaced to match the pretty centre stone, I just think I''d have a hell of a time trying to find small OEC/ OMC stones. I am not sure what the cut of the centre stone is. The appraisal says that it is a "full cut" It has the "chunky" facets of a OEC or OMC. The inclusion is very obvious in the photos as they are still pictures. When the ring is worn you cannot see it because the diamond is very brilliant in full light and full of fire in dim light. It''s just beautiful in a dimly lit restaurant and I have received several compliments while wearing it, even though the stone is small, it flashes!
I do not know the history of the ring, whether it was bought by my Mother, or given as a gift to her, whether it belonged to my Grandmother, or what. One day I will find out.
I wish you well,
