Upgraded Wedding Rings & ACA Diamond

[MCAUDI]

DSS and PS influence resulted in these new wedding rings and diamond. I was only considering CBI or ACA diamonds and I had great customer service from both Wink and Melissa at High Performance Diamonds and Brittany at Whiteflash. I can't say enough good things about either company or their amazing diamonds.

Here are the WF images of the diamond and specs.

F VS1 ACA 1.52 carats

I ordered two 3mm scattered diamond bands from WF in 14K YG and had them add a platinum legato head to one for my ering.

The little less than 1 pointers in the bands really sparkle like crazy in the right lighting.

Here are the glamour shots from WF.

Thanks MissGotRocks. I bought a Tiffany Etoile band about a month ago and thought about making an ering from another Tiffany band but wearing two 4mm bands together seemed like a lot to me. I thought of having WF make me a 3mm band with the same curvature and weight as the Tiffany band but the 18K gold in the Tiffany band was getting pretty scratched up already so I was going to just get a solitaire from WF. I asked WF to send me photos of a few solitaires with some 3mm and 4mm scattered diamond bands. I was kind of leaning towards getting two 3mm bands from WF but that seemed a bit wasteful since I already had the Tifany band. I showed the photos to my husband who quickly said I think you should get two 3mm from them. He didn't have to suggest it twice. Sometimes I can wear my Tiffany band with the ering or my 1/2 ctw channel set band.

In case some of you are wondering – MCAUDI is my new screen name. I’ve been posting on here for years as Marcy but my account seems to be having issues updating avatar pictures and information so I created a new account.

Thank you Woofmama. I was looking at a 1.25 carat first but it honestly wasn’t that much difference in size from my 1 carat. DH talked me in to the 1.5 carat size and I can’t say I am unhappy he did.

Thank you Kathley.

Thank you Redroze. Right now the size seems pretty large to me but I am sure I will quickly adapt. I will have to go find your 1.524 carat ring (if I haven’t seen it already). I was teasing my husband at lunch today now I’ll have to upgrade the stones in my RHR.

Thank you LLJsmom.

I honestly wondered if it could be you but didn't think you did trades with WF so I figured it wasn't. I also knew you had recently gotten the Tiffany Etoile so figured you wouldn't do this! Ha! Joke is on me! I love your rings though - such a fabulous idea! Your stone is gorgeous too - what a great upgrade for you! You'll always be Marcy to me!!!

 

[sweet_blossom]

Lovely! Congrats on the upgrade.

MissGotRocks, Ella tried to fix my account for me but I am still locked out of making changes to my profile. I feel like a "sneak" using a different name. I am not opposed to buying from online vendors but since 90% of my jewelry is from a place in Denver with a great upgrade policy I usually buy from them. I gave them first shot at finding me a diamond since I would get full credit for my 1 carat diamond. But since I wanted something with the quality of an ACA or CBI they couldn't find me anything I was interested in. I was already emailing WF back when I was thinking about getting another 4mm band. I should have picked the diamond first, then the ering, then the band but luckily the Tiffany band I bought is a larger size and I can wear it on my right hand.

DH was very skeptical of me buying a diamond online since we wouldn't be able to see it and touch it. I think he is convinced now it's okay to buy from trusted online vendors.

Thank you Sweet Blossom.

Hi Sharon! Yes, I do have a habit of upgrades. Marty doesn’t believe me but I told him this diamond is for keeps.

Thank you Derbygal.

 

[heididdl]

The stone is a beauty and I love the one pointers in the ring. I have considered putting a couple of colored diamond one pointers in my ering. Never happened hough

 

[MCAUDI]

Thank you heididdl. I think one pointer colored diamonds in your ering would look amazing. What color were you considering?

 

[diamondseeker2006]

Oh, wow, not I am going to have to remember who you are with this new account! Glad you put Marcy down at the bottom!

LOVE your new rings...F VS1, very nice!!!!!

 

[MCAUDI]

Thanks Diamondseeker. My initial search on diamonds was for a G VS2 but I can't say I'm sorry I ended up with this diamond.

[VRBeauty]

A beautiful ACA center stone AND a scatter diamond band?

The best of both worlds!

Congratulations!

 

[junebug17]

[minousbijoux]

I love the contrast of the white of the diamond against the yellow of the band. Beautiful!

 

[Acinom]
