WTB 3.5+ carat OEC

@Dmndsr4evr11 Omg that OMC was TDF!

Since I want to see the 4.11 ct stone irl first, I don't plan to have Alex set it. Don't want to deal with the back and forth shipping. I will have someone local do a temp setting.

I still love that more elaborate Art Deco setting I posted a while back but need to try it on in person to be sure.

Here's my initial idea for the temp setting-I might do platinum instead of yellow gold. I love the 8 prongs and the crown-but maybe a more refined donut? Not sure yet.

That is a lovely temp setting and I think Alex can do something like that for a very reasonable cost but otherwise maybe DK? I don't know where is local for you.

I wonder how much it is. He didn’t post the price.
Sounds like a plan. Looks good! I think CVB has a similar more ornate design. Can’t wait to see what you do with it.

Yeah no price means probably not for sale hahaha. I love the OMC! Oh and since everyone is wanting say a 3 carat plus.. I feel like he will have to start buying 5 carat plus diamonds for his customers to upgrade to lol.

@Dmndsr4evr11 Idk. I'm curious, too!

I'll have to check out the CVB design. How much are her settings, typically? I have no idea. I'm guessing it would be more than I want to spend on a temp setting?

I think CVB would definitely be more than a temp setting. I usually check out her Etsy just to get a gauge on pricing.

 
@maryjane04 oh now the 5 ct has a mystique bc there’s no price!:D

Thanks for the tip on CVB! I didn’t know she was on Etsy.

LOL I love the mystique but I also want the deets!! Like the old saying if you have to ask, you probably can't afford it, but what if I can LOL.. it's killing me hahaha. I mean that would be a HFG ring, that 5ct!!

Hahaha no worries about the tip re: Etsy. I mean I am really really wanting to get the CVB norah 7 stone :(

Oh, I’m sorry if I wasn’t clear. CVB is definitely not for temp setting:). What I meant to say is to look at her settings once you decide what permanent setting you’d like if it’s anything similar to your temp setting that’s more ornate and finely crafted. She has beautiful settings.
 
Oh no worries @Dmndsr4evr11!

My inspo ring is very Art Deco. In my mind I love it and the finger coverage.

Ladies, I’ll kill your curiosity because I’ve asked and have to pass :kiss2:
It’s 5.34 H VVS2, $130k
 
WOW! That will definitely provide finger coverage for sure!

@Dmndsr4evr11 Go big or go home, right? :lol:

Just kidding, I don't really know what I'm going to end up with. That will be a new thread (hopefully).
 
@Dmndsr4evr11 I'm not sure I could even lift my hand with that OMC. But I would learn...:lol:
 
@lulu_ma - if you get this, you definitely should not ever suffer from DSS. Hahahha.

I cannot be the only person thinking this ring needs something....a halo perhaps? Yes a halo. Either that or a three stone with halo around each stone.

:whistle:

:cheeky:

@missy @Dmndsr4evr11 maybe we should all pool together and buy it. We can name it Olympian and pass it around :lol-2:

I've got a lead on a 3+ carat L VS OEC/ transitional stone which looks to be beautiful. Anyone what the dets?

Here you go @clorchicken . There are actually 2! One is an L and the other an M. I keep watching the vids and I find the L mesmerizing. I asked the dealer for the dims and it’s 9.21 x 9.34 x 5.72 (62% depth). Based on my data, and even with the exchange rate, this is an attractive price. Lmk how you make out! I got mine but I can’t help shopping ;-)

Finally got a chance to get on my computer and look at them up close. The L is such a show stopper! I am shopping around. I am in the middle of home renovations and possibly buying a 2nd home so I really need to figure out just how much I have to work with. Thank you for sharing though. I greatly appreciate it. It's much easier to have people who know which accounts to follow and who also know what to look for in stones.
 
@clorchicken I hear you! Lmk when you know what framework you want to be in. When I see pretty OEC's I want a PS'er to get them :D
