Fellow PS'es,
I'm trying to decide what to do with this stone. Options are listed below. Please help me decide what to do with it.
1) Re-set into a 3-stone RHR with matching BGD Signature or Blues, of approx 0.75ct each. This would be the easiest option (logistically, as in I'd be able to rely on the certs, no appraisal), but rather costly. Plus, I'd have to wait quite a while since matched stones of specific specs are hard to come by.
2) Re-set into a 3-stone RHR with GIA-certed sidestones. This would be a bit less expensive, maybe about $1.5k less expensive. I'd prob have to have the sidestones appraised. This would be the fastest route, yeah instant gratification!
3) Re-set into a halo ring with a cushion-shaped halo and split shank, similar to the VC Ann-Marie setting. Q is: do I really want a halo? There are so many halo'es on PS (note: not IRL where I live though). I was thinking maybe this setting but in rose gold with either pale pink sapphire melee or platinum/ rose gold with white diamond melee. This would be slightly more unusual, I guess.
4) List it again for sale and save up to buy a larger EC ring. This would be the most costly, would take the longest time to realise; it may not even happen at all (so I'd sell it and not use the proceeds towards bling). But a girl can dream (I've wanted a larger EC for a looooong time), or can she?
5) Something else altogether. If you could please elaborate, that'd be great.
