Lisa Eldridge Rings

[Vivianne4]

you guys! you are completely right about the following :
1. indeed the next day when I checked the site they had the grace in moval cut in my size again! super weird! I ordered - will post a pic soon!
2. the difference between the Josephine in normal size and the baby one is not much in pricing...don't get the idea behind this....anyway they are stunning both and I love them - I wanted to get a yellow stone in gold setting but cannot afford it unfortunately.
3. someone here said something about other colors on the baby rings- indeed it would have been so cool to see more pink versions on the baby rings and maybe prices should be more affordable but well we don't know the whole story behind the rings so who are we to judge?!

Hello, all! I'm a long-time reader/lurker who is not much of a poster. But I thought I'd jump on here to share my thoughts on the baby Nicole I just got. I can totally understand why people are questioning the pricing...it is a splurge for a little bitty ring. But....I LOOOOOVE!!!!! I ordered this and a silver oval Kate as a gift to myself for my 50th birthday.

The baby ring is really beautiful and obviously well-made. The cut is unique, the stone is bright and sparkly, and the craftsmanship of the setting is evident. I've had similar style/size rings that I had to be very careful with because the setting was fragile and could get easily bent out of shape. The baby Nicole looks delicate but feels quite sturdy. It's so comfortable I can hardly feel it on, and low enough profile that I can easily wear it every day to work (at a hospital, pulling exam gloves on and off all day, and much hand washing). I also think it will go really nicely with almost everything in my mostly silver-toned collection.

Hope that helps anyone who is wavering!View attachment 4603172View attachment 4603173 View attachment 4603174

Love the ring and the photos--thanks for posting! As CJKSA said, the description is also very helpful. It's good to know the specifics of your everyday and how you think the ring will hold up. Enjoy it!

Here’s my new baby grace moval! I’m very pleased with it. It’s cute, and I am already reaching for it a lot from my jewel box.

I think it’s still an “old cut” as if you stare straight down, you can see your skin, just as with the big cushions and big ovals from her line. Again, that might not be everyone’s cup of tea.

Photo taken on a cloudy day. And I don’t know why it’s side way this time (?)

Finally took some photos of my cushion cut Nicole in silver. Pics don't do its sparkle justice. I will say that it's the same size as two of my other LE rings but it seems a bit more snug. (See photo three for a comparison.) Did anyone else have this experience? Still, I'm happy with my purchase.

Looks so pretty! Congrats!

And yes, I've had the same experience. I got a size 6 for the moval Grace and it's more snug then the Sophie (also size 6).

Thanks, and glad I'm not alone in the sizing issue. Have you posted photos of your Sophie? I need to do some digging through this thread. I'm sure it's gorgeous.....

You know, I never did because right around when I got it someone else got it too and it looked pretty similar. But here’s my Sophie.

Compared to the other rings I’ve gotten, Sophie was the most opaque and most included. The others were transparent and clear. Having said that, I was given a few choices to pick and I picked out the stone because it was the prettiest to me. It has a lot of fire. I wear it a lot.

Hmm. Sideways again

Wow! Such fire, and what a vibrant color. Thanks for posting!

I got my silver Kate ring!! Happy 50th birthday to me!!

I'm kind of second-guessing my decision to go for the oval over the cushion cut. I wish it was a little larger, and that it didn't look so same-same with the baby moval cut Nicole. But the stone is just so absolutely STUNNING that it's hard to regret it much. And the buying experience simply cannot be beat. The presentation, the customer service, the speedy shipping. The whole thing feels very special.

So lovely and happy birthday! If you are second guessing, don't hesitate to send back and ask for cushion. Honestly, it's been hard for me to choose between cushion and oval. I want to mix and match them with different colors but I find myself drawn to cushion only.

By the way, did you get this box with the kate? I thought these new boxes were for the baby rings only...

Happy 50th! It looks so pretty, and the new green box is lovely. To me, it's a completely different ring from the moval. My Kate is a cushion cut, but I wear that least among my LE rings for some reason. It's almost too fancy for my everyday life, whereas my Baby Nicole cushion cut feels fine that way. Go figure!

But as bluebells_ said, you can easily exchange if your buyer's remorse gets the best of you. And I agree about the buying experience. As I do holiday shopping online, I am reminded of how much those things mean, especially the great customer service and lightning-fast shipping. Talk about instant gratification!

 

[CJKSA]

Happy happy birthday! You (and everyone else) is making me want the Kate. Seriously loving that watery subdued glow.

I actually think the two rings together look really nice! And I agree on the cushion, it's quite a big presence type of ring so there are times I won't reach for it if I think it's too big. Whereas the baby ring and any ovals I have, I have no problem reaching for wherever I'm going.

Did you guys get taxed by Fedex on the baby rings? I saw the disclaimer that orders under 350 gbp is subject to tax.

I didn't. I was worried about that, too--actually saw the disclaimer *after* I had paid for the Nicole and braced for the extra charge. So far, so good.

I noticed that the oval Grace in silver recently increased in price from £390 to £440, I wonder why. I’ve been eyeing that one and the silver oval Kate for months, and I remember they used to be the same price. I believe the silver cushion Grace has also increased as well.
