I'm having second thoughts on my second engagement ring setting. Here's the previous thread in case you were wondering. Setting Change
My dilemma now is that although I love my current setting with the pave diamonds on the side, I'm really starting to long for a plain band setting for my engagement ring, just not as thick or have the stone sit as high as my original setting. I don't want to part with my current setting because I really do like the setting, just not with my diamond, so I came up with the idea of getting a loose amethyst to mount in it. Amethyst being my fiance's birthstone. I would like to use this amethyst ring as a right hand ring.
Any tips on where to get a loose amethyst from? I have no knowledge at all when it comes to colored stones. I'm not looking for a stone with specs as strict as I would use when we looked for my engagement ring diamond but, I would still like a pretty amethyst.
Please offer any advice. I attached a picture of the setting I would like to mount the amethyst in.
Thanks!
