Somebody pinch me....this can't be real life! (Octavia)

@lovedogs EEEEEEPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!! More happy dancing! It looks like it BELONGS on your finger! I am so excited for you and so happy for you! Take it outside at night, under a light and watch the light show ;) Just awesome! You have waited so long for an Octavia... thoughts??

I adore it. Its exactly the contrasty/angular look I was hoping for, and SO sparkly. It's my favorite diamond that I have ever seen, hands down.
 
Legendary thread for an epic diamond... congratulations, lovedogs!
 
TRIUMPHANT!
Triiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii-umph :lol:
Look at that diamond, mmhmm.
I'm so happy for you!

Me, super stoked for you and loving the tracks while ogling your pretty.

Hey Lady, you're stealing my lines. :mrgreen:

Seriously, sincere congratulations!
I'm thrilled that you're thrilled, and get to experience what I do.
Enjoying Octavia's light show cheers me up every day.

Octavia performs so well I'm amazed they are not ubiquitous.
 
You need to do a SMTB thread for your new diamond - show her off to the world!!
 
GAHHHHH its here and I'm dead. I love it so much.

Its fabulous! When we didn't hear anything yesterday I was thinking 'oh no, either its been lost in the mail or she doesn't love it'. I'm so happy for you!

Agreed, when they're SO sought-after.
 
PS seems to have been weighted towards problems recently. It’s so lovely to see a situation where someone gets what they’ve wanted for ages, it’s exactly what they’d hoped for and they’re over the moon happy. Enjoy your new beauty - I can’t wait to see how you set it.
 
Oh wow, this is such a gorgeous diamond!! I knew it would be pretty but my mind was blown when I saw the videos and pics. I'm very happy for you @lovedogs. Agree with @lissyflo, it's wonderful to hear how thrilled you are with your Octavia. What a day brightener. Can't wait to see how you set it!
 
It's spectacular, lovedogs! It's always been my dream to own one too!
 
HI:

Did I already say start the car???? SO freaking wonderful to have this charmer!!!

cheers--Sharon
 
GAH- gorjus......... now, i need me one.... !!!
 
I just saw this… congrats! So happy for you! Beautiful and enjoy!
 
That is absolutely amazing! The cut is perfection and it looks so good on you. Cool nails too!
 
Congratulations on that stunner!!!!
The bling is just WOW!:appl:
 
It’s beautiful! I have always loved Asschers/square cut corner step cuts and the Octavia is just perfection. I’m drooling over the pic with the triangles!
 
She's a beauty @lovedogs ! I couldnt be happier for you! Only seems right that a PSer should own her!
 
HI:

Now I am obsessing over Lucidia's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

cheers--Sharon
 
I love the triangles in this stone! Such a very pretty diamond!
 
I am seriously still in shock that this is real, but now that payments have been made I wanted to share with PS folks.

drumroll please.....

I finally bought an Octavia!!!

I've been selling stuff I no longer wear in an attempt to save the 12-14k needed to purchase one, but have simultaneously been checking all of the vendors that used to sell them just in case.

Yesterday I was looking on Good Old Gold's website and THEY ACTUALLY HAD ONE! I immediately called and asked if it was real or a website error. The sales associate initially told me it had to be an error, as they didn't have any Octavias. But then he looked and said "oh wow, there is one! It was a trade up!" I immediately asked him to put it on hold for 24H while I got funds together, and today it's officially MINE!

Website pics attached since it won't ship until funds clear/wire transfer completes. Here's the link, which includes a video: https://www.goodoldgold.com/diamonds/id/4021898

I cannot wait to see it in person. I have wanted an Octavia for YEARS, and cannot believe I finally found one, especially for under 10k. I still can't believe it, and am a bit in shock. BUT ALSO SOOOO EXCITED!

EDIT. Tagging @Simple and Sparkly because she knows how long I've wanted one of these, and @Karl_K and @diagem to thank them for making such a perfect cut.



I don't know if you already know how you're setting it (if you've said, I missed it), but if you're undecided, I am absolutely in love with this setting right now, if it would work...

 
OH. MY. GIDDY. AUNT. :-o

This is the most BEAUTIFUL diamond I have ever seen! :kiss2: :kiss2: :kiss2:

I know you have been after one of these forever & I am so thrilled for you! This is amazing! And she is SUCH a stunner!

Thanks!!! I love semi bezels too, but I absolutely NEED to see the cut corners when its set because I love them. So I think I need NSEW prongs (which is all I've decided at this point haha).

I get it. I just love that setting so much I want someone to get it. They said they could set my little green yellow (avatar pic), but it would have to be e/w, and I don't want it set that way. Make sure and keep us updated with the setting!
 
OHMYGOSH it is gorgeous!!!!!!

I’m so excited for you!!!
 
I had to come back to see it again! It’s so gorgeous! :kiss2:
 
WOW! its gorgeous! super happy for you!
