Hi FutureMrs!
Welcome to CDi!

As far as who will the ring look on...
How did the ones you tried on in stores look?
What size stones did you try?

Hi FutureMrs,

 I've never had the pleasure of trying on this ring, but it is beautiful!  I love the large facets in the diamond and I love how the diamonds are mounted on the halo as well as on the side of it and the sides of the shank.  It looks very substantial...and for my size 8 finger, I'd have no worries about this ring getting lost on my finger at all!  The M color is a soft light yellow shade which I have recently started liking.  The contrast of the white halo diamonds with the tint of the colored center is interesting.  It has a soft yellow pastel contrast.  I don't have light skin, so I can't answer your question about it suiting yours...but if you can't find this color in a store near you to see if you like it with your skin tone, maybe a trip to New York to see it in person can be worked out???   It probably will just be a personal preference, but if you like it on the website, you'll probably love it on your hand as well.  I wish you luck with your search and if you do get this ring, please post some pictures!   

Hi FutureMrs!

Welcome to CDi...I'm new here, too! I am impatiently awaiting the shipment of my ER to-be this week (as soon as @$!! Paypal releases the funds back to checking..grr, and when my sweetie decides to spring it upon me), but it is R3623, if you want to look it up on the search function. I wear a size 6.5-7 and don't do well with overly petite rings, and I have fair skin, so I'll be sure to post a picture pronto FWIW, though, I have tried on rings similar in dimension to R3623 elsewhere, and they look substantial enough on my hand. The one you're looking at is twice as big, so I don't think you'll have a problem!

Oh, and I literally looked at THOUSANDS of settings before deciding on mine, and talked to dozens of jewelers and store clerks before talking to David on DBL.  There is NO comparison. I always feel like his only customer whenever I call. Good luck..and go snap up that gorgeous ring! I have never seen another one like it, and trust me, I have seen a TON of rings lately

Hi FutureMrs!

I LOVE Daussi rings too, I can completely understand why you'd fall in love with them!

If you take a look around this thread
http://coloreddiamon...-all-week-folks/175/

you'll find some fun pics I snapped on all the Daussi rings we had in stock at the time!

Thank you for all the input everyone! It's such a huge decision to choose a piece of jewelry that I have to wear every day for the rest of forever!

Mrs. Mitchell is the three stone Daussi you have on your ring finger in that picture R3916? That is actually the other ring we have been looking at and I was curious how it looked on.

Mrs. M,
The problem is that I love them ALL and can't decide!!! There are just too many beautiful options!

Once you have one on your hand, you'll forget about the others. Also, we have a great return policy. 

It's one of these things - pave will very occasionally fall out of the finest rings, it does happen. If it's going to upset you, or if returning the ring for repair causes problems, then it's something to bear in mind when you're choosing. Although we stand behind them and offer our usual lifetime warranty, we don't manufacture the Daussi rings in-house.

I live in the UK, so returns can be a little more difficult (not impossible, but not something I want to do too often) so I've never chosen a ring with micropave. The best made micropave ring in the world can pop a stone if it's stressed in just the right way. However, I got brave, and got a halo with micropave on the shank a few weeks ago, made in the DBL factory. The ring looks sturdy. Heck, the ring looks bomb proof.

At the end of the day, it's about your comfort levels. If your dream ring has micropave, you may have to accept that it will need to be repaired from time to time (or maybe not - we have literally hundreds of DBL rings out there that have never lost a stone).

Does that help or hinder? Feel free to email me or David if you want to discuss in more detail.

I swear I need to STOP looking at the DBL website! I keep finding different rings I love (which just makes my decision even harder). I made the mistake of looking at the trade up specials... R2871?! Has anyone seen this in person? I love the double shank! Its a smaller center stone, so I would be curious what the outer halo measured and if it would look too little on my chunky fingers. A hand shot would be fantastic if possible? And R2728 too. It looks so great in the video! Ahh. I need a Daussi ring for every finger.

Ok, I got my Daussi last night, so you get to see what it looks like on "chunky" fingers, LOL. Look up R3623 on the search function- the center cushion is .65. This one is 6.5, and I am a 6.75-7 in anything thicker. Let's see if I can give posting a photo ONE MORE TRY, before the ever-patient and knowledgeable CGIers give me up as a hopeless case ;

I have VERY fair skin (super sunburn-y / never even bother with any cosmetics other than whatever foundation/powder is in the most-ultra "fair" tone, and even then the colors are not-infrequently too dark).  One of my favorite rings is made with an N-O-P stone that I bought from a CDI member who had purchased it from David a few years earlier.  I had it set in yellow gold... And it looks FABULOUS on my skin!  (Well, anyway, I happen to think it looks fabulous.)  I also have a "K" stone from David that looks great.  

You will know whether or not you like the color when you see the ring in person.  And do not hesitate to buy from David -- If you are not happy, for whatever reason, he will make you happy.  He is all about customer service and satisfaction (and repeat business).  Rest assured that he doesn't waste time writing all these detailed (happy, satisfied) postings himself, under fake usernames.  David is clearly too busy out scouting for lovely, fairly-priced diamonds !

Best wishes on your engagement!

P.S. Myleft-hand ring size is 6-6.25 / I wear a 7.5 or so on my right hand.  My fingers are relatively large, although I wouldn't say "chubby."  (My wrist is barely over six inches around.)  One carat is... okay.  A carat and a quarter or (better yet) at least 1.75 carats is better.  My "K" from David is a large-looking 1.45 carats, and it is great.

My posts (photos) are so old that they have been deleted.  But I will try to re-post here, if I can remember how to do it...
