Family Stone Reset

*DiamondDana** Ideal Rock Total Posts: 6,172 Last Post: 11/23/2009 Member Since: 7/21/2006	I finally took the plunge and had my late mother in laws engagement diamond reset. The stone was originally set in a 14K yellow gold 6 prong solitaire. The setting was very low to the point that you could not even see where the diamond ended and the setting started. She was screaming for a reset, and with my husbands blessing here she is!

What a difference a setting makes, huh? I'm glad to hear you were able to set the diamond into something that you enjoy more It does make a difference. I went back and forth on the whole idea of changing the original setting, but the prongs were getting a bit bent on the old setting and I figured that my MIL would want the diamond to be worn and loved, not sitting in a jewelry box. I would like to take the old setting and have an emerald set in it for my daughter when she gets older. She is only 4 now and never was able to meet her grandmother, but I think that it would be such a nice gift for her. She was born in May so that is the reason for the emerald. There are also 2 diamond bands that went with the solitaire, so I will probably have them all soldered together! Anyway, thanks again to everyone! I just love that there is a place full of bling lovers like me! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If you judge people, you have no time to love them ~Mother Teresa
