what i mean is how should the prongs on the setting below look??? the cut corners on the asscher make me wonder how this setting will work... oh and Grif if you are around drop me a PM I would like to discuss you possibly making this setting for me since I CANNOT find anyone in my area that has one or makes me feel good enough to do it for me. Here are the specifics: 1.09 carats dimensions: 5.74 x 5.67 x 3.95 GIA Cert #: 12405346 CUT: ASSCHER STYLE COLOR: G Clarity: VS2 Depth: 69.7% Table: 59% Polish VG Symetry G Flour: None Girdle: Med Thick I went to ROYAL ASSCHER's web site and searched their diamonds to research their cut(dimensions) etc... what i found: the DEPTH's of the ROYAL ASSCHER's were btwn 65.5% & 73.7% however only 3 of their 25 diamonds were above a 70% depth...so most of the depths were evenly distributed btwn 65.5 to 68.9% range the TABLE's of the ROYAL ASSCHER's were btwn 54% to 61% however ONLY 2 were above 59%

also can anyone give me a ROUGH IDEA as to the cost of that setting in Platinum & White Gold 2.5mm is prefered unless someone says that with a 1.09 it should be 3mm(she likes a 2.5 that she tried on one day.)

Interesting notes about the RA... First, congratulations for the beautiful diamond! About your questions: #1 a cloud as small as a VS2 type inclusion should certainly not be visible (as you say) and does not pose any problems whatsoever. #2 making the prongs flat is just a minor adjustment to the finish of the setting: no problems there... However, the shape of the prongs may not be as in the picture, because your stone does not have pointed corners as the princess (a good thing, given that those are prone to getting chipped). and my 0.2 #3 the setting is rather high, which makes it uncomfortable to wear, to some (including this person) - if you go for a custom made setting, it may be worth giving the option to set the stone lower a thought.
