OMG! I just fainted.
I’m so sorry this happened to you! It is a beautiful ring.
Omg no! This was one of my favorites from Adam. What happened?! I’m so sorry!!!
Here is my K or L (two reports, 2 colors) VVS1 2.61 pear. It’s an older cut, likely cut in the 1920’s. A bit of a bow tie but the polish and symmetry is really good. And she’s long at 1:1.71 so, much like Dr Who ‘this bow tie is cool.’
I bought her in the original pre WWII platinum prong setting but the girdle is extremely thin and frosted, and really prone to chips, and I am a hand talker. So... I took a different path and embraced the warmth, faint yellow in the body and dropped her into a full bezel of 18 carat gold with a platinum shank (resused the original).
The color really shows in some pics and not in others, as you can see here. Took both at my desk, same light, within moments of each other. The only difference is the white of the napkin in one as background and the blue of my portfolio pad in the other.
I adore so called lower colored stones in deep, high carat gold - they just stand out so much from the crowd of ice white. Don’t hide the color, flaunt it!
Wow this is amazing!
