The two week club!

It's here, and it's beautiful!!! So sparkly. I love it!!!

Although the value was fairly high (due to the quality of diamonds used), UPS just threw the ring package on the ground at the end of our long driveway along with a couple of other packages also being delivered.

We waited all day for the ring to arrive. When it didn't, my husband finally went out at 8 PM and looked around. A bunch of newly delivered packages (including my ring) were almost in the street. One was even in the grass. Guess we had a substitute UPS driver for the day. He must have just thrown the boxes out of his truck. Our driveway is over 200 yards long and then our front walk is another 100 yards long. So, it means delivery people have to walk a bit to get to our front porch.

Luckily, we live on acreage on a dead-end courtyard and don't (knock on wood) - so far anyhow - have any problem with porch pirates. But it still was unsettling to find the box with my newly delivered diamond ring almost out in the public road. I don't know what was in the other boxes: just some things my husband had ordered for home maintenance. Nothing irreplaceable or super expensive. Still, they also shouldn't have been just dumped where they were.

But that's no longer important. I have my ring!!! And it's gorgeous.
 
Joining the club!

After going back and forth for quite sometime, I've settled on a hearts and arrows 2.69 RB diamond in a Tiffany style setting.

A huge thank you to @DejaWiz who kindly found the diamond for me and was extremely patient and kind throughout my weeks of indecision! I trust his eye and I know the diamond will be beautiful.

If everything goes according the plan, the ring should ship out between 6/9-6/13.

Thanks for letting me share in the excitement!
 
Tiny little .75 Si1 brown k Asscher coming on the 13th in a simple solitaire.

Ooh! That's going to be gorgeous!
 
Thank you, and congratulations on the upcoming RB! I look forward to pictures!

Thank you! That's so kind of you to say. I'm counting down the days!
 
That stone wasn't available but have a .83 coming instead.
 
Just waiting for the jeweler to set the diamond! These are all new - my upgraded engagement ring from 2012 had a mishap in the garbage disposal. So I changed from a 1.3ct natural diamond to a 3ct lab with pave band AND had the other 2 rings (eternity and bubble band) made and my out of pocket will be about $200. Jeweler's Mutual has been great to work with!

WOW. That stack is incredible - I can only imagine what it will look like once you add a center stone! :kiss2:
 
Anyone here ever buy anything from Whiteflash? I placed an order yesterday for an ering in a Valoria petite setting with a wait time of approximate 4 weeks.

Within three hours of placing my order, I was sent tracking info with a scheduled delivery date from FedEx for this Tuesday.

I was pretty shocked by this but very excited. The entire experience with Whitelfash has been pretty amazing.

Many, many people on PS have bought from them. You can find many reviews here for their ACA diamonds. They are a fabulous company!
 
I am not sure of the exact delivery date yet, but I have a vintage three stone ring with a center 2.4 ct ruby set in 18kt yellow gold on the way. Hoping it looks as good in person as it looked in the online auction photos! I’ve had a three stone ring and a ruby (my birthstone) on my bling wishlist for a long time!

Gorgeous!! Looking forward to seeing it come in!
 
My ruby and diamond band is finally here and I love it. Hard to capture the beautiful color of the rubies. First DKJ pictures. I was worried they would be too dark but definitely not IMG_9362.pngIMG_9363.pngIMG_9361.png
 
My photos are not great but here they are! The detail is amazing!IMG_9394.jpegIMG_9398.jpegIMG_9397.jpegIMG_9392.jpeg

:love:Perfect. I would want one with sapphires and one of emeralds.
I don't need to bend my fingers.

Thanks! Would look wonderful with both emeralds and sapphires! I have one with fancy yellow diamonds and love it with them too!

Somewhere on this forum I read you can use a toilet paper holder to see the arrows - my husband got a good laugh watching me, but it works!
