sorry for the double post, but I was told I should probably post this here as well as the Photo Gallery is not as active. so here goes again:

so, my sol314 (14K White Gold, 6mm center stone, ring size 6.75 or so. the ring itself is in size 7, though.) from MoissaniteCo is here! I camped out on the front porch for 3 hours making sure I don't miss the fedex guy haha! our door bell doesn't work and I reaaaaaly didn't want to wait until Tuesday to get it. so here it is.
This is my first Moissanite piece and I'm just ecstatic. It turned out even more feminine looking that I thought it would. I want to say that it looks fragile, but not in a sense that I'll break it, but that there is something magical about it. It makes me think of fancy young ladies drinking tea in a garden couple of hundred years ago haha. I think fragile or dainty is really my preferred look in rings.
I am somewhat surprised to see that it does pick up a lot of color depending on the lighting. In my green bedroom it looks almost like a fancy yellow/green. However, this doesn't bother me at all. I think it gives the ring a character. but if you're looking for a colorless stone, this is not going to be it.
overall - love, love LOVE it!

Beautiful! That size stone is the perfect size IMO ... large enough to be appealing but small enough to be passed off as a mined diamond. It also compliments the setting perfectly. Dainty, elegant, simple and classy.

It looks lovely on you too.

thank you!
I'm so happy we were able to find something that is traditional yet with a little twist. I think I probably could have gone a little bigger with the stone now when I see it, but I'll save that for a RHR sometime in future smile

Thank you all! I just about fell over when the sun finally came out and I saw the sparkle in direct sunlight. I wonder if it has something to do with how exposed the stone is? I really have no idea, but it's been fun to watch it different lighting all day. In sunlight it is actually super white.

I registered just to comment on your post today! After sending my fiance *several* different MoissaniteCo rings (each time saying, I swear it's this one!) I finally found this splendid setting. Then a friend found this post and I am ecstatic to see a pic of it IRL. I can't get over how much light this minimalist setting lets in, it really does make such a huge difference to be able to see the whole stone.

Thank you so much for posting this, I know I've finally made the right decision on this setting, your ring is gorgeous!

I haven't seen IRL photos of this ring, it's very pretty, elegant and dainty. It will never go out of style! :)Looks perfect on your finger too. So glad you love it! Some of us just love the moody Moissy. smile

What band are you going to get with it?!

aw, I love that my post helped someone smile you'll love it, I promise!

The thing with pictures is that I can't seem to capture the sparkle. here is a picture from a different angle, though.

oh, and I'm pairing it with an 11 stone (2mm) round shared prong moissy band.

link: http://www.moissaniteco.com/11stone-round-moissanite-sharedprong-ring-2mm-003ct-p-10533.html

It is currently in production. I'll post a pic of them next to each other when it comes in. I'm very curious about how they will sit together.
