After seeing Cellentani's beautiful 3 pointer jackets, I had to call IDJ to see what they had available for my studs.

My studs are .31 ct each (4.33 - 4.36 mm) and are set in 8-prong settings. Luann informed me that I should go with the jackets that hold .5 ct each studs because they only come in .25 ct increments so the next size down would be too small. She thought this would work because the studs have 8 prongs. Otherwise, I would have to go custom. Since they have a great return policy, I decided to order them and should have them in a few weeks. I just wanted to see what you guys think while I wait for them to be made though - are jackets for .5 ct studs going to have a huge airline with my .31 ct studs or do you think it will look ok because they are in 8-prong settings? The prongs looks so tiny to me, I honestly don't feel like they will really fill up that much space. For those of you with jackets, what has your experience been?
Should I just take this as a sign that I need to upgrade to larger studs?
