maybe this is a ''head on'' shot? ...probably a side shot really...i love how you can see the ''crown'' height of the royal...

pic''s taken on the end of my pinky finger....in the shade....

That is a profile shot and a lovely one at that!!! I love the way you can see the crown height also. And that surprise diamond is gorgeous!!!

 

[MacClure]

sunny pinky shot here....

 

[MacClure]

lisa kaleigh....thanks....too many pics ya think?....(yikes...i''m gettin'' carried away here with ''em...)

 

[MacClure]

.....

 

[Kaleigh]

NO!! We can never have too many pics!!! We have waited forever for these so keep''em coming. Got any nice flowers around??? Oh and can we beg Tanya for a hand shot???

 

[MacClure]

cool.....tons o'' flowers around....i''ll have to get a shot of her near the purple (her fav color) rose bush, where i proposed to her...finger shots''ll be comin'' soon. along with other shots...as long as everyone wants ''em.

 

[laila]

I agree with kaleigh! There''s definitely no such thing as too many pics!!! We have been waiting forever to see these!!! Please keep ''em coming!

 

[MacClure]

...here''s a top down shot i tried to take without any flashes of color....

Oh another thing Ron - if it''s possible, I am one that would love to see a video! I have often thought that it would be so great to see videos of the many beautiful rings on here so we could get a maybe a tad bit closer to a "real life" perspective. it would be great if that would be feasible! I do think that the video of your setting on the claude thibadeau website really made a difference when compared to just a still life pic!

 

[MacClure]

okay....stand by ....here''s The King sittin'' tall on it''s throne...on tanya''s hand.

this pic was taken in the shade, which, by the way, does seem to showcase the platinum more naturally...

enjoy....

(i''ll try to get more pics today...)

 

[lizz]

Thanks for those top views of the ring. It''s just beautiful. And the prongs are great! I always love prongs with diamonds in them.

 

[MacClure]

marta ana.....yes...when i saw the video at claude Th.''s website...i had to have tanya see it in person...but, lol...she didn''t know it was the claude setting (previous to us seeing the setting ''live'', we''d decided it was way tooo expensive) shown on the video. she thought it was a slightly different setting...
anyhow....i''ve been informed here to contact pricescope admin. to find out howta load some videos...i''ve got a few of the king royal prior to setting and of the final product we have.....here.....

 

[MacClure]

the ''one, two'' knockout punch of The King....

 

[MacClure]

....followed by the extravagant elegance of this Royal beauty....

 

[MacClure]

.....

 

[MacClure]

okay...one or two more shots of ''the ring'' on tanya''s hand...in the sun....then one or two ''studio''...lol....shots taken by Jan and Brad at Diamond Brokers of Florida...emailed to me prior to shipment....

 

[FireGoddess]

Beautiful - I love the head on shots of the ring! That is definitely a whopper - nobody can say they can''t see she''s taken!!!

 

[MacClure]

....

 

[mrssalvo]

Ron, it''s looks fabulous on Tanya and like a wonderful home for the king. congrats again to you both.

 

[MacClure]

lizz....you''re welcome...and thank you for your compliments...

firegoddess...yeah, she''s taken alright.... and, this ring is a whopper...

 

[MacClure]

mrs. salvo.....thank you again, and again, and again...you''ve been an awesome advisor.

here''s a studio shot taken by Diamond Brokers of Florida...prior to shipping the ring to me....i love how the ring stands tall by itself...

 

[FireGoddess]

I forgot to mention - I love that rb diamond where the 2 sides of the shank meet - such an intricate and gorgeous touch.

 

[MacClure]

firegoddess....i wasn't sure about that 'surprise' diamond from pics prior to seeing the actual setting, but, it really does look as you've descirbed.....the ring's just gorgeous....

 

[ilovesparkles]

Just stunning my gosh! I never new asshers could have so much fire! Gorgeous!

 

[Kaleigh]

It looks positively beautiful on Tanya''s hand. Awesome pics!!!! We do love our hand pics!!!

 

[sevens one]

wow- TH that''s some impressive piece.

It turned out to be an amazing ring. It''s lovely

 

[monarch64]

Ron and Tanya, the ring is awesome! I love it!

I have been lurking on your threads mostly, responded a few times during the choosing of the stone...but stayed out of the choosing of the setting. I am a huge fan of the setting you chose, though. I love the substantial metal, the diamonds, the surprise diamonds, diamonds on the prongs, EVERYTHING about it. It''s just gorgeous, and I''m so happy you found such a beautiful setting for an extraordinary stone. Best wishes to you both!

What a stunning ring and a amazing diamond! Thibaudeau does outsanding work.

 

[Victoria]

TierHog, I read in a book once that something that has a superior amount of bling should be referred to as ''blong''. Damn, were you there when they wrote the book?? That is an amazing ring...

 

[diamondlil]

What a stunning piece!!! Definitely a stand-alone ring -- no wedding band needed. The workmanship looks so precise -- absolutely beautiful!!!!
