My new stone is in her temporary setting! Major   for the local guy and his lovely wife because he got it at 1pm and had it set and re-rhodiumed for me in just a few short hours.

I CANNOT wait to get more pictures of her. Setting her made SO much of a difference! Her yellow tint definitely shows up since the setting is so white. I mentioned not knowing if she had fire - oh yessirree she DOES! Mr. Jeweler turned on his super bright overhead lamps so I was able to twist and turn her to my hearts (initial) content. Sparkly AND fiery! I am in love! Not to mention slightly terrified to wear her except for special occasions.

I'm off to start dinner for our incoming guests but I just couldn't wait to post that she's set and so lovely!

This is my largest and prettiest diamond to date so please, excuse the (excessive) squealing and giddiness from this corner. I'm just so, so excited, pleased, and thrilled.  

 

Glamour shots!




While we were at it, we decided to take a few pictures of the other girls so no one would feel left out.




My honey is so funny. He insisted we get shots of Jolly's backside. Normally I'm opposed but for the sake of glamour...




We need to work on the group shots a little bit. No one really wanted to pose.


We did have a bit of excitement; my original wedding set snuck in through the back door.


Then everyone had to line up.


In order of age that is: Original wedding set, my OEC wedding ring, my lovely N.


In this picture you can see how the clarity gets better as the years go by. I think my N's feather is visible in this picture.


I am starting to think there is something wrong with my eyes because what I see on my hand is not what I see on the screen when it comes to my N. My pictures are just so lifeless - I haven't yet broken the code of how David can seem to get his stones' personality through the camera.

I agree that David is a Diamond Whisper!  He brings out the best in all of them.  I love the stacked photo of your rings! ENJOY THEM and CONGRATS!!!!!

Very, very nice!
