Hi all,
We just completed a new blue diamond ring with a .51ct Fancy Vivid Blue diamond (Takara lab grown).

Its set in our timeless halo micropave ring and is absolutely stunning in person. The center is actually I1 clarity so the pricing on the ring is also excellent because the lab cut the price on the stone. We don't normally accept I1 grades but this stone is stunning and clarity of course, is not that important in colored diamonds vs. whites.

Anyway, less talk, more photos - here it is:



Enjoy,
Less

Wow, that color is so so vivid and saturated. Does it look like that in real life? Are the flecks I see on the circumference edges the inclusions?

It's a beautiful ring, Less.

The color is very saturated in real life - the photo was not 'color enhanced'. It is a bit darker in real life though, as this was shot under studio lighting...it was graded Fancy Vivid Blue, and probably is close to being Fancy Deep Blue.

Yes, the inclusions are the little spots - I was suprised they showed up in the photo as in real life,they are not visible (but again, the ring was well lit for the photo and this a zoom photo).

Anyway, its really a stunning ring in person.

We have posted it for sale now and so details can be found here:

Best regards

Gorgeous ring! The Pacific Ocean blue color is what I love in a blue diamond. Whoever bought that ring is so lucky! A blue diamond has it all, gorgeous color, brilliance, strength and longevity.
