So? If the wearer never tires of the style, then who cares if it was a fad from the 80s or a timeless style?
Exactly !!!

If that's what the wearer of the ring wants, then that's what you should get.
that durnell (or some other brand similar to it) is not too far out on a limb

If not for the price tag...
But still no guarantee that she will love the $6k setting, and if she doesn't there goes $6k down the toilet.tyty333|1411511893|3755962 said:starrylight|1411510672|3755947 said:that durnell (or some other brand similar to it) is not too far out on a limb

Ditto that! I was talking style wise. After reading this thread I'm thinking he was meaning that style and not necessarily
that durnell setting. I could be wrong though. I wouldn't put a 1 carat in an almost $6k setting unless it was out of this world
to die for!
If I had that kind of money for the setting I would have Victor or Kirsch make it (probably be cheaper )!
You mean like an Octavia on tension setting?...kenny|1411499255|3755866 said:denverappraiser|1411493341|3755794 said:What’s wrong with fads?
They are temporary, and therefore go out of style.
Haha. If tension set octavias become a dime a dozen, will you love her any less?Dancing Fire|1411513330|3755983 said:You mean like an Octavia on tension setting?...kenny|1411499255|3755866 said:denverappraiser|1411493341|3755794 said:What’s wrong with fads?

The "fad" two?..kenny|1411514818|3756010 said:Dancing Fire|1411513330|3755983 said:You mean like an Octavia on tension setting?...kenny|1411499255|3755866 said:denverappraiser|1411493341|3755794 said:What’s wrong with fads?

A sample size of two constitutes a fad?

Fancies come into the spotlight every few decades, apparently. Pears were kind of a '50s/'60s thing, marquise was '80s and are becoming socially acceptable again now,

LOL, I guess I'm an old fart then since I own 2 marquise (pendant and RHR) and a pear. But I'm finally getting around to buying a round
p.s. never did really care what was "socially acceptable" as far as my diamonds go.
