Which setting

[mkruse02]

Both of these vendors can get the diamond I want. So now it is just to decide on which one has the better setting.

Here are pics of the two settings as well as links. Has anyone had experiences with these vendors or settings? Or just based on the pics which one do you like best?

They look exactly the same to me.

 

[mkruse02]

They are very similar but there are differences between the two. Maybe they would be easier to see on the on their respective sites (links are in the original post) rather than the screen shots that I took.

Does anyone have any opinions on either of these settings. Neil, diamondseeker, gypsy? (Or anyone else). It would really help me out!

Others have been happy with their 6 prongs from Yoni. I also found his customer service to be impeccable.

Enchanted Diamonds is still an unknown quantity at this point, as far as I'm aware.

Ok I went to look at the videos on the site, and I still maintain that they look the same. However I can't explain precisely why but the second one looks better. But I think it might be my eyes playing tricks on me because it's shinier.

I think the base at the prongs are the main difference between the two. As well as slightly different prongs. I guess I've lurked on pricescope enough I am analyzing every slight difference to death...

I prefer the second one, I like the curve at the base of the prongs, very graceful!

 

[diamondseeker2006]

Wow, I am an analyzer but those settings are almost identical if not the same! I really like them!

I would go with a white gold or platinum head regardless of whether the shank is yellow or white gold like the real Tiffany setting would be.

The unknown to me is seeing the prong work of the setters for both companies. That would make the decision for me, but without that knowledge, I guess I would choose whoever will sell the diamond for less.

 

[mkruse02]

For price they have price matched each other on setting and diamond so the cost is the same either way. I am leaning towards the second.... I think I like the base like junebug said. And I like the idea of changing the prongs like DS said, thanks for that suggestion.

 

[mkruse02]

I just saw your avatar DS and saw that your setting is much like one of these, where did you get yours from if I might ask?

 

[Lookinagain]

They look the same to me but for some reason the second looks better. I have no idea why. My eyes don't distingush much between the two. Both look good to me and I'd probably be happy with either, but compared, i still like the secone better.

I think the prongs itself is already different
from the side view, the 1st one is flat gold prongs
the 2nd one , there's an 'indent' of the individual prongs up to a certain point (less gold from another pov) and then its 'flat' / filled up again

I like the second one better.

 

[ooeemusic]

Personally, I like the 2nd on better. I like the look at the base of the prongs/head better.

Thank you for explaining.

Thank you all with your replies! You have all been a huge help. I had previously had decided on the second but then had last minute doubts and freak out. But I now have the ring I want and I know she will love. Thank you everyone!
