Whiteflash Legato

[ekynox]

Hi!!!

I''m interested in purchasing a Whiteflash Legato micro pave setting for a Round Stone. I was wondering for those that have/own/or have seen this setting could you describe the overall quality? How has the setting held up? I was going to match this with the halo band that they recommend.

I would appreciate any guidance or help that anyone could give to a nervous shopper.

Thank you.

Actually, I have the "original" Legato head... but my shank is fishtail pave. It''s gorgeous and the workmanship is excellent. I would totally recommend it. Here''s a thread with 1,000 photos!!!

I have had this setting since May. It still looks brand new. I highly recommend it.

Just to give you all an idea -

I would be purchasing the setting in white gold, and hopefully trying to accomadate a 1.00 carat RB diamond for my lovely girlfriend. I just hope she likes it. Her only request was a petite looking band. The only other setting I was considering is the Knox Jewelers pave petite 6 prong - has anyone seen it? if not here is a link...

Thanks

I think the Legato head is much prettier.

I agree. Legato all the way.

Vote Legato! LOL! Like it''s a person...........

Anyhow, me too. Legato!

I agree with the others-the Legato setting is much prettier. The head is so nice on the Legato and the price difference isn''t huge to get a superior setting. Go for the Legato!

I like Lynn''s Legato very much, but the fishtail option is only available in plat.

Why do you think that? The WF site has a price for 14k wg and 18k wg.

Hi, I''m new here also, at least as far as posting goes. I''ve been looking at the girls rings for months. My fiance bought me the legato and I absolutely love it! I get compliments all the time. People always say that it looks very dainty, however, it is very heavy. They always comment on the head also. I''ll try to attach pict.

Legato''s head is nicer, and WF''s finish and polish are better than knox IMO. No contest.

I actually prefer the simpler head of the Knox setting, though my absolute favorite is the Michael B. Petite Princess. Have you considered that one? Here''s a recent example from springtimebride. I love the head on this setting because it merges with the shank of the ring in a way that''s really elegant and doesn''t look simply soldered on.
