Despite what the website said, the ring (Tiffany repro, palladium, H&A 1.25/7mm ct) was ready and delivered 2 weeks after ordering. Since I am based in Singapore and chose UPS Expedited (slower), it was another week before the ring reached me.

What a beautiful ring! The supposed light-weight palladium didn't bother me as I'm used to wearing an 18K gold ring.
Here's a close-up shot.

I will get a better photo under sunlight!

Sorry for this ugly handshot as I'm still getting used to taking pictures of my hand. Also I have VERY SHORT fingers (on average AT LEAST 1/2 inch shorter than my friends') so I think my handshots will be quite ugly!

I am still trying to get used to the size! Think this is as large as my hand can take!

BTW that's my lovely cat Angel in the background. We adopted her from the local SPCA.

Wow...talk about efficient.. delivered in 2 weeks?!

That size looks perfect on you sparkgirl, I personally wouldn't change it. If you don't mind, what is the ring size?

The ring is a 4.5 but I was referring to the stone size (7mm). I suppose shrinkage hasn't come in yet! I am a little self-conscious about wearing it though as my fingers are so short!

I'm not kidding when I say my fingers are short!

Gawd I need a manicure!!!

I like the lower setting as I can be quite rough with things, plus I'll be riding a motorbike and thus will need to wear riding gloves:
