I got it! I drove there last night to pick it up.

I got it! I drove there last night to pick it up. Here is what I wrote on PS about the ring: ""It's here and it is AMAZING!!!! Everything I hoped for. I finally had ""that moment"" where you see your ring and fall in looooove . It took a little while, but I finally got here! I found out at 9pm that they had it at the main FedEx location 45 minutes from my house, so my best friend and I drove up there and picked it up, I just couldn't wait. Hubby was studying for a professional certification exam, so he made me promise to wait until I cam home to open the package... somehow I managed to wait. Before I opened it I warned hubby that the lighting in our house (it's all incandescent lights) was probably the worst for diamond performance... but when we opened the package we were amazed at how lively and sparkly, and yes, FIREY the stone was! I have literally never seen a diamond like this before. Most other diamonds I have seen just look white, but they don't have fire and they sure don't have any life in regular lighting like I have in my dining room. This little guy looked like a fireball on my finger. Simply amazing. It is mezmerizing, I totally fell in love. And on top of that it looks completely colorless. We looked at it up against a white piece of paper, couldn't see a hint of color. Seriously, the color grading scheme seems so odd to me when I think that my ""J"" is six color grades away from a ""D""??!!?! That is splitting hairs in my opinion. Maybe in a bigger stone it is more noticable, but I will never buy anything other than J's, I am so amazed. And finally, let me say that the Legato Sleek Line is probably the most beautiful setting I have seen in my whole life. Pictures CANNOT capture how *delicate* it is!! The prongs are soo teensy tiny, and the shank so thin, and the cathedral is a thin as a hair. Amazing. It is so much more than I could have ever hoped for. And it looks perfect with my plain 1.8mm WG band! Perfect! The only bad thing is that now I need to have my three-stone ring re-made because it looks horrible next to the perfection of this setting! But I don't care because I finally finally finally have a ring that I completely love!!"" So Katie you have a life-long customer in me! I don't know if I told you, but this ring was purchased for out first anniversary, which is in a month, and my 30th birthday, which is in three weeks. I'm so glad that I finally got what I wanted, and we could mark those special occassions with such a beautiful ring. Thanks so much I have been really impressed with the service you have provided and I am a very happy customer.

I am still getting to know this incredible stone and ring, but already I can tell you there are not enough superlatives. WOW. Seriously. It is perfect. The chunky arrows give this stone such a fantastic personality. She’s clearly a precision cut modern brilliant—you can see her arrows in almost every light. Yet the size of those arrows give her a tiny bit of OEC flavor, which I just love. Her name is Vivian. Which means alive. Because she truly seems alive. She’s changeable and really invites you to stare. She grabs colors from the environment and throws them back, but always manages to be white. She turns into a dancing glitter show under LED lighting (yes, I ran out to a local store with my favorite lighting so I could see). Outside she is a shower of rainbows. As for color, while she does reflect environmental color like crazy, she manages to stay bright white. This may say as much about my lack of color sensitivity as anything else, but I truly do not see a color difference between this stone and my CBI studs, which are AGS Gs. I’ve never had a stone with clarity this high, and it may make me a high-clarity convert. You can really gaze into it with a feeling that nothing gets in the way. It feels very pure and clean. Trying to find a larger stone in this market was really an interesting experience, and I am so glad we chose Whiteflash. Your ACA specifications and upgrade policy made this leap of faith feel very safe. And you already know this, but good grief did y’all ever overdeliver! I still cannot believe this stone finished a clarity grade higher and nearly a quarter carat heavier than promised. Or that we didn’t have to pay for the difference. Truly, I did not ever think I would be wearing a stone with these specs. I also want to rave about the setting. I had some very specific requests, and Hung nailed every single one. • The prongs are exactly what I hoped for—Tiffany inspired tabs, ever so slightly softened at the corners. • I asked that the prongs not protrude from the girdle and that they be as delicate as possible, and they are, in fact, FAR more delicate and precise than the settings I saw at Tiffany when I was looking. In real life all I see from the top view is the gorgeous diamond, and that was the goal. • It was also important to me that the setting be comfortable and that the prongs not catch on anything, and it is fantastic in that regard. It is smooth and nothing has caught so much as a tiny fuzz. • Height—The height is great as well. I had asked for the low side of medium, as this is already a tall stone. It is really impressive how your bench was able to find the height here. It is high enough that it shows the stone off, yet low enough that it is easy to wear. • I asked that the prongs be close to the diamond on the pavilion side—didn’t want a lot of space between the prongs and the stone. The result is perfect. The prongs skim right up the sides of the stone. Also, I want to give a huge shout out to the WF photography department. I have only had this ring for 24 hours, and I’ve spent an embarrassing chunk of that time trying to get good photos of it. Y’all take beautiful photographs—and I now know this is NOT an easy task! Diamonds behave a bit like toddlers when you point a camera in their direction. Finally, a huge thanks to Becca for everything. You have truly gone above and beyond. I have lost track of how many times we’ve spoken at this point, but thank you for all your help guiding me through this process. I really appreciate that you never did any high pressure sales on the front end. Instead, you gave us all the information we needed to make a big decision, and room to make it. Once the decision was made to custom cut, you walked me through every step of the process with grace and patience. Since this stone was cut after AGS merged with GIA, I asked for additional Sarin scanning of the stone so that I could have the same information that would have been on an old AGS report. You were instrumental in getting that done, and I am so thankful. I am bowled over by WF’s customer service, truly. The only bumps in the whole process were with GIA forgetting the inscription initially, and with Jeweler’s Mutual. You were so kind to help move things along with insurance so that we would have coverage before the ring shipped, and I truly appreciate it. I hate that it didn’t work out to meet Debi for delivery of the ring, but it means so much to me that y’all offered to hand deliver. You have gained a customer for life through this process. Thank you again for everything. This ring celebrates twenty years of marriage, so it means a lot that it is so spectacular.
