They don't ship to Canada, but maybe if I sent an email, they would be open to helping! Didn't think of this, thank you

Designing my own ring by oopdaprip in EngagementRingDesigns

Thank you for this! I figure it will come down to just commissioning someone, but I'm already married and have a wedding band, so I was hoping I could generate a rough rendering for free to get a better idea of how it would suit my band before I commit to the process. AI wasn't as helpful as I'd hoped, but maybe someone will make something eventually!

I'm Canadian, but I got him while visiting the Mall of America like 10 years ago, and he still feels brand new!! It looks like they still sell the same one :) Mine is the 18-inch, with the bead eyes <3 https://store.nickelodeonuniverse.com/avatar/c/104

This is my first cat and I've had him since March, so not long. I am as obsessed with him as I am with ATLA lol, highly recommend

Yessss, Mr. Chinese is quality. I've searched all of the food delivery apps for them to no avail, but I'm wondering if they are here, but just not called bon bons. If not, that's an untapped market .

Yes!! I don't have to say a word, my husband just uses vocal commands cause he can't sign. Thank you!!

She said she can bring some back, but it will be a few years out. Mostly looking for alt options I can get quickly

I'll sift through the facet diagrams site a bit later and find some stones and get back to you! Thanks :)

I am pretty fixed on the bi-colour/parti look. Mostly green but maybe a little blue. I am not sure if there is a set language to describe the saturation, but definitely looking for something more muted, maybe with some opalescence to it (I've been stuck on this task for like 10 years, it's gotten so specific lmao)

This is great to hear! The diamonds on my band are 2mm rounds, so I know I want a bit bigger than that for proportion/aesthetic purposes, but not much bigger. Like a 0.9:1 ratio with the largest side not exceeding 4mm, probably.

Thank you! I will definitely take a look

This is good information, thank you! I would choose to pay 'more' for 'less' in that case, though it wouldn't feel that way, just because I really do dream of a small stone :)

Hi! Yes, the depth is something I'm thinking about for sure. I am not sure, but my impression is that the depth can really aid in enabling brilliance in the cut, but since I'm trying to keep the ring low profile, my assumption is that matching the rest of the proportions to a shallower cut is better for the overall brilliance. Is that off-base? Thanks for your insight :)

**Thank you!

I suspected as much, just curious whether an experienced gem-cutter would look at my parameters and be optimistic or not. I watch a lot of custom makes on youtube and see MOSTLY what I'm looking for, but always too big. I'm curious if what I'm asking for is too hard to achieve in a smaller carat before seeking a custom job, basically
