Should be amazing in person! It's matte finish titanium with a gold stripe. ________________________________ "Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." -Albert Einstein

valeria101 Ideal Rock Total Posts: 14,048 Last Post: 4/30/2006 Member Since: 8/29/2003	Designing a tension setting for a three-carat stone should be a pleasant challenge: it may not turne out with the same outline as above. After all, small stones can be suspended within the width & thickness of the band, while large stones cannot. Simply building a similar simple band for a 3 carater will probably turn a weird rezult, but this is not likely to be the approach. Nice challenge though! Here is one solution...on my 1000th post!

QueenMum Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,971 Last Post: 10/28/2009 Member Since: 2/13/2003	So, Giangi, do you have any idea for a man setting with prongs? It seems to be so difficult... I find nothing on the market. Stephan

Giangi Ideal Rock Total Posts: 2,530 Last Post: 10/29/2006 Member Since: 1/23/2003	Oh gosh, sorry! Didn't meant to ignore you, Step! Mmmmmmh... Personally, I'm not too into man rings... But from what I have seen most of man's rings with large diamonds are bezel set. Happy holidays! _____________ Omnia Mea Mecum Porto. Giangi

QueenMum Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,971 Last Post: 10/28/2009 Member Since: 2/13/2003	Yes, Giangi. But I don't like bezel settings. They make your diamond look smaller. And they are difficult to clean. Stephan

Giangi Ideal Rock Total Posts: 2,530 Last Post: 10/29/2006 Member Since: 1/23/2003	You've made good points. So you would prefer soemthing with prongs? Maybe you could find a semi-tension ring that is not too heavy... There are some... _____________ Omnia Mea Mecum Porto. Giangi
