I love it in the green! I had it twice - but sent it back both times, not because I didn't love it, but because I ordered it from Saks, and both times they sent me a size 7 when I needed a 6. The only reason I didn't get it is because I was tired of dealing with Saks (I wanted to use a gift card toward the ring)!

I may just get it again...either the prasolite or the citrine...I think both are neutral!

I really like it! I love that it is a more neutral stone. My mom has it in a bright blue topaz and while she loves it, she feels that it doesn't go with everything. I have a similar Yurman ring in a deep pink tourmaline and I LOVE it but not when I wear certain colors...I would go to the store and try all the stones on again and see what you really love best on your finger!

I went and looked today. They had the praseloite in a more green color than the ring I have and I do like it better. Mine is so muted. But, now I'm also in love with the citrine and the smoky quartz. I just can't decide.

Hmm... tough choice!!!
The citrine and smoky quartz would go well with alot of things and would fix your concern over the light stone on right ring finger issue!
I have similar skin tone to yours and have always ended up picking citrine for stand out pieces! Here's a crappy iphone pic of my favorite citrine ring:

Good luck deciding! It's a beautiful ring nonetheless!

I have the smokey quartz that I love. People have asked if it was a chocolate diamond.:graucho:

I did charge send from Saks to save on the tax and the new card % off. When it came, the stone was soo dark it looked like onyx, not what I was expecting. I exchanged it for a lighter color.

DY stones are not created equal and that is part of the character. My other choice was a praseloite. But I already had another right hand ring in a light color.

I have the 14mm in Smoky Quartz and I absolutely love it! I wear it on my right hand, middle finger!

I originally wanted the 14mm Black Onyx but when I put the Smoky Quartz on, I fell in love with the way in reflected against the light.

Your ring is beautiful! Anyone that knows anything about fashion or DY won't think it's a fake diamond, they will know it's Yurman!

Thank you all so much for your help and suggestions. Yesterday I went to Nordstrom and David Yurman and looked at all the petite albion rings. I was shocked there were so many choices. The praseloite ring I purchased online, so I didn't realize there were such variations in the stones, and that there were so many choices. It was a tough choice. There were some gorgeous praseloites that were more of a sage color, the smoky quartz was stunning, and I even loved the peridot, pink tourmaline and amethyst. But... I finally decided on the CITRINE! I love it! It's to perfect shade of orangey gold and I think it looked best on my skin tone, and I think it will go with just about everything in my wardrobe.

Here's my new baby! :cloud9:

Just beautiful! I think I'm going to have to break down and get one again - it's such a pretty ring! I also love it on the middle finger...maybe I should have kept the size 7 that Saks sent me and worn it like that!

Enjoy it!
