Poppy:

When you see or hear about something that isn't exactly right you have an obligation yourself to say something...

That's why some people get physically hurt in situations where plenty of people could have stepped in or call for help (extreme example, I know, but still an issue) because they don't feel it's their issue, their problem...

No one is being mean here or saying anything offensive just stating feelings and opinions. Freedom of speech.

[Maybe you could approach him with the idea of a trade in for a diamond wedding band? That way the money he spent would still go towards something meaningful and represent your engagement/wedding/marriage and still be a gift from him.


Or maybe you could talk to him about it and possibly sell it and buy the asha with that and use the leftover money for things for the two of you... or even use that as some of your wedding/honeymoon money!

thanks Joyce. I love your settings...the oec looks great. Did you order the settings from btd also?
The setting with the OEC and side synthetic sapphires came from AshaDiamonds and the other setting I bought from Kay Jewelers and it had a cluster platform in the center that I had cut off to accomodate the 3 ct asha. \:\)

Welcome to the forum Dayna! I am a nurse too so we have that in common, and a love for older cuts. \:\) My first bigger diamond purchase was a 1 carat I2 diamond so I know what you mean about clarity issues. My beloved MIL is wearing it and she loves it, but I would much rather have a truly sparkling beauty on my hand then an included diamond. I think you are making a great choice and can't wait to see pics!

Just a quick thought. Have you considered getting your diamond enhanced to improve the clarity? You can have both then, your original diamond and the Asha OEC. \:\)

Yes, I hope we haven't scared you off!

I'm VERY excited to see comparison pictures between your natural diamond and the 3ct Asha OEC! ;9 Honker overload! Just the thought of it is giving me goosebumps!
