I too think it is a bit higher than you would want.

A couple of weeks I think - not sure they will call me to let me know when it''s back...

I would vote yes to the lowering, if you can: I may be a low-set freak, but I like it when the basket line bisects the stone. Right now, yours is set so high that it's almost setting atop it, and, completely aside from aesthetics, I know if it was mine, I'd be knocking it every which way! But, I'm unusually clutzy, so hopefully that's not a problem for you. The fact that you ask suggests that it's bugging you on some level, at least, so if it's a possibility ... why not?
Ya I keep banging it everywhere which is another reason why I wanted it lowered... Hope the couple of milimeters help!

Anyway - thanks everyone! I hope it comes out as we all invision!!!!

Hope it turns out the way you want it to be! for what it''s worth at this point, I would have sent it back too. It''s too bad they went mucking around with something that was pretty darn perfect already. Oh well... let us know how it goes!

Thanks everyone!

I just hope it doesn't look weird since the basket on my ring is clearly not the same as the original design.. I just hope they bend the prongs a bit too to make it flow better...

I also noticed that all the Ritani rings in the showcase at the store were set lower....

I wonder why they set mine so high (Ritani set it themselves the first time!)
