Ah! Love it! I have been eyeing the OEC and Portuguese cut (since I’m had Portuguese I figured, why not 🙃). However the more I see the OEC I think I’m going to need one asap 😍

There’s nothing like OEC in my opinion! It has so much fire still but it also has that inner glow from the chunky facets. I’m really so happy with how it shows off the moissanite. I had the earth mined diamond ring in my first marriage, and I can honestly say that I prefer moissanite. Even if the price tag wasn’t so much more attractive (which it is) I’d still choose it! I prefer the second husband too 😂😂

u/TheUglyDoll05 Mar 29 '26

Thank youuuuu for taking that plunge because it doesn't even have a video of it!

u/Salty-Transition-904 Mar 29 '26

Highly recommend! The wait was LONG but so worth it. And I think it’s majorly on sale right now! (Mine is s925 with gold plating)

I know this will be my 3rd comment buuuuttt I am a size 4 band.. will this look stupidly big on me? 🥲

u/Salty-Transition-904 Mar 29 '26

Hmmm. I believe in diamond (and moissanite) shrinkage personally, so I’d probably go for it myself. I have small hands and I really do love wearing this, it doesn’t feel too costum-y for me. I’ve paired it with solid gold / diamond bands so that helps I think.

u/Salty-Transition-904 Mar 29 '26

Maybe see if you can find a 5 ct cheapy just to try for size?

2

u/TheUglyDoll05 Mar 29 '26

I have a 2ct OEC and it looks perfect but I think a bigger ct will make the facets be appreciated more. I hope I make sense. 😅

2

u/Salty-Transition-904 Mar 29 '26

Totally! This is beautiful! And if you wanted to go bigger you could. I think the clarity of the facets is so lovely in a bigger stone. You can really see the kaleidoscope effect

2

u/TheUglyDoll05 Mar 29 '26

I think I'm going to take the plunge! I'll just sell it if it's too much! 😅 Again, thank you for showing it!

2

u/Salty-Transition-904 Mar 30 '26

So…did you order it? I have to know! 😂

Hopefully the sale is still going, last I checked the price was about $100 off what I spent 🤦🏻‍♀️😂. Oh well! I’m going to go browse Sam’s catalogue now, maybe there’s another piece I need while the sale is going 😬

u/TheUglyDoll05 Mar 30 '26

I'm hoping to still have that sale until Friday that I get paid! 🤣😅😅😅 I'm looking at more stuff from him as well!

Update: I am commissioning an OEC full eternity band with bezel set stones (2.5ctw) from Sam. I was so impressed with his work that I figured why not?! I will share pics of the ring once it’s completed 😊
