FYI - Just got the e-ring from Bluenile today. Not sure if we''ll be keeping the setting - the stone sits up a little too high for my taste (we''ll see what my gf thinks). But the diamond is very nice. This is a 1.17C ideal-cut diamond in a size 5 ring.

It''s a beautiful stone in a classic setting. It lets the stone shine & sparkle.

I personally like the high setting but it''s all personal preference. So, I guess you''ll just have to wait for input from your gal.

The first picture does not do the ring just, great 2nd picture. Enjoy the ring and many happy days to follow.

I would get the diamond out of the 4 prong setting and into a 6 prong head.

Very nice looking diamond and for me, it would be too high as well. It''s a personal preference and I guess we''ll all just have to sit tight and wait for your gf''s opinion.

Yes, needs to be lower. Not to beat up your ring just our 2 cents.

A co-worker of mines has the exact same ring from Blue Nile and it looks greats. Have you seen a 4 prong diamond solitaire from Blue Nile in person? I think it is up to his fiance to determine.

Very nice. The stone looks great. Some people like their diamonds to set up high, but IMO you should put in a lower setting. See what your fiance says.

I love how it is set high and I love the 4 prongs...which means that I love the whole thing. Of course my ring is 4 prongs and set high as well

It is always a matter of personal preference. Good luck and let us know what happens!!

I lobbied for the 6-prong setting long and hard (for safety reasons), but she was pretty specific about wanting the 4-prong. Assuming we stay with a 4-prong, I''m going to make sure we get it checked once a year or so. If she doesn''t like the height we''ll find a local B&M jeweler to get it re-set and then I''ll figure out what to do with the old setting (maybe try to sell it on E-Bay... I wonder if Bluenile would take it back).
