First time poster, long time lurker here.
My DH bought a beautiful setting, diamond and band from a BM store. Unfortunately, I had a horrific time with them. I sent the ring off to be soldered and it came back severely damaged. I ended up returning the set. It was unfortunate because I truly loved it and the sentimental value meant a lot to me.
Anyway, I have been on the hunt for a new setting/stone for a couple of months. I finally came across a setting that makes my heart sing. I also came across an OMC that did the same.
The seller of the setting, Jewels by Erica Grace, originally thought it could hold a 6mm stone but has since told me it holds a 7-7.5mm. The OMC I love is 6mm. Would it even be possible to set a 6mm stone into a 7mm setting?
Of the 7mm+ stones Jewels by Erica Grace has, none are in our price range. Would it be possible to find a 7mm stone for $3500 or under or should I look for a new setting?
I love OEC and OMC but am open to other options. I am ok with warmer color stones too.
