That is one VIVID stone! I love how much blue you can see in the overall color really has such a lush quality to it. Wear it in good health and congrats on great photos

Thank you, Crasru and SleepySpinel!

Lavatea - Not at all! I live in Plano, and my jeweler is also in Plano at Coit/Park. I''ve been training Aldemar at JB Jewelers for the better part of the last 3 years to get those claw prongs a bit more fine. We should have a GTG there if you have any stones to set, or have any custom pieces you''d like to have made. He''s made my Citrine 3 stone and Scapolite rings and I love how he really listens to what I want.

Lauren - Hold that thought. I''m moving back from Tyler early next year (and hopefully will have a bit more discretionary income then) and I''d love to meet you and your jeweler then. I already have 3 unset stones, so I''ll definitely have some projects.

Will do!

However, I still think DFW needs another GTG at Northpark soon.

We have some little DFW connections to get us into the WTC too.

Oh Lauren. You inspire me to actually set my one loose gemstone in an LOGR legacy or something. I could use a pretty RHR!

I see two pipe cut bands in your collection. I seem to remember that you bought another one when you lost your original? Did you find the original or am I totally making this up in my head?

Not to enable you or anything, Claritek, but you should totally do it!

OK, so, I actually have 3 pipe cut bands - all 2mm - one is 14k white gold, the other is 14k yellow gold, and my platinum band that''s my actual wedding band.

I stil haven''t found my 18k WG wedding band. I know it''s outside somewhere, but I''m pretty sure it''s gone forever. I''ve looked everywhere!

Oh, and now I need to update that picture all over again - I received a blingy surprise last night from Erica.

 

[LaurenThePartier]

Oh, and just so you don''t think I''m a tease - preview pics from last night.

 

[LaurenThePartier]

One more. It''s a tad bigger than my e-ring, but this is exactly the type of wedding band I''ve been searching for all these years!

Sorry to hear that its still on the loose! But glad to see you received that gorgeous new band. Its stunning and goes so so perfectly with your asscher!
