Show us your OEC rings!

@joelly OMG WOW!! please start a thread for this asap. And post like a million pictures. What a beauty!

@winnietucker what will you do with the setting/other diamonds if you're not using them all in the reset? Would you feel comfortable posting your inspiration ring?

I’d prefer not to. I’d at least like the owner of the inspiration piece to be the first person who sees it (aside from myself).

I’ll sell the old setting and the smallest diamond and probably use that money to turn my 1.3 ct round into a graduated 5 stone.
 
So many glorious OECs!! Here's my oec, @CSpan !

And not in a ring (yet!), but I love the OEC cut and blue zircon, so this will be my right hand oec:

To be fair - The appraisers have argued if this is a late OEC or an American transitional :confused: So lets call it a TEC - Transitional European Cut!
 
Here are a bunch. Feel free to add yours to this comprehensive thread...

 
I'll just add mine since it finally came back from jeweller!

Not much, just had it lowered...it was an okd ring originally that my mother had kept in a box for yyeeeaaarrrs!
She gave it to me so I wanted to do something with it and just decided to get the setting lowered as you will see in the pucture below it was really high!
My jeweller tried his best to keep the ring in the same condition but just lowered the setting.

Wow it is so gorgeous on you. I love the flower setting. Beautiful ring with a history.
 
@kgizo I hav always admired the oec in your profile pic. Can you give us more information on it? It looks so big!
 
Thank you!

Ooh that toi et moi ring is gorgeous! Do you have a SMTB thread/ more photos/ details? I’d love to know everything about it.
Hi Winnie! I do not. I saw a similar ring on DK’s IG and fell instantly in love. It had bigger diamonds and I believe they were OMCs. I bought a pair of OEC earrings at an auction, had them cleaned up (messy girdles) and had DK make my ring. I believe the diamonds are 1.34 and 1.52 H VS2 / SI1. It was my first time using DK and am very pleased with the craftsmanship of the ring. A couple of weeks after I received it a PSer posted what I assume was the inspiration IG ring on SMTB. Unfortunately I can’t remember who. Since her’s was the original I haven’t done a SMTB for mine, although I love it to pieces.

@kgizo I hav always admired the oec in your profile pic. Can you give us more information on it? It looks so big!
Thanks you, Lessics. It is a 3.96 L VS2 that I purchased from Adam at OWD. He also did the platinum setting.

What an amazing collection!! Would you mind sharing the stats on the two OECs on your ring finger?
Hi Moonie, I listed the stats for the bigger one above. The other one is a 2.45 K VVS1 I purchased from Erica at LAD. It was when she was collaborating with CVB and the diamond was from Caysie’s personal collection. I had planned to do a CVB Elsa so I took that as a sign it was meant to be.

You just won Pricescope @kgizo :love:
LOL! I am amongst my people =)2 Non-PSers would likely say, “why do you have 3 similar rings”, but they are all such different flavors. The 3.96 is an older OEC and the facets are very different from the 2.45, which is also different from the toi et moi diamonds.

Different OEC flavors, but both still pick up so many colors from their environment.

Diamonds are coated in hand sanitizer, but still flash and sparkle.
