recently i purchased a stone, .50 color D, vs1 and the cut is excellent. i''m looking for an engagement ring, a solitaire with a setting to really bring out the stone. my fiance-to-be has small hands, and her fingers i would say are thin, i''m not sure the size yet.
so... i have seen some settings, 3, 4 and 6 prong. the 3 prong setting i have seen looks very nice and really shows off the rock, from all angles. Would that necessarily mean it''s not as protective and easier to chip/lose?
are there any general rules or pros/cons to 3 prong vs 4 or 6 prong settings?
6 prong setting seems to bury the stone.
i''d love for any suggestions on design and settings.
thanks
