They only carry the 5-prong in white gold. Where else can I find one? DiamondLil ________________ "Diamonds are nothing more than chunks of coal that stuck to their jobs."

Where else can I find one? ---------------- I am looking at the Stuller Findings catalog , try stock #1263 (approx $166 retail), Pear setting with v-end, or stock #2737 Pear Peg Setting with V-end (approx $154), both are available in Platinum in sizes up to 2 carats.

DiamondLil Ideal Rock Total Posts: 2,405 Last Post: 6/1/2006 Member Since: 6/8/2003	Thanks MA and Cflutist. I actually have one of those heads now. I guess I should have called what I am looking for a 4-prong with a V tip (I consider the V a prong). I have seen them in white gold, but I am set on platinum. Sounds simple doesn't it? I looked at the Stuller catalog, and I don't see one. Any suggestions? DiamondLil DiamondLil ________________ "Diamonds are nothing more than chunks of coal that stuck to their jobs."

I definitely like the basket type head better than the peg type head, but I'll have to make sure the basket will work for the setting I'm designing.

I have always wondered why Stuller didn't make such a setting as they are perfectly acceptable and safe.... Probably some other source does have one ready made, but I don't know where. Truthfully, the Stuller 6 prong could be altered to a 5 prong style by a good platinum worker. You'd never see that it had been modified. David S. Atlas GG(GIA), ASG, Sr. Mbr. NAJA www.datlas.com

oldminer Ideal Rock Total Posts: 4,964 Last Post: 11/20/2009 Member Since: 9/4/2000	It turns out the two findings companies do have 5 prong (including the V tip) settings in platinum. Tessler & Weiss Keystone Nearly any jeweler knows these two firms and can get a quote for you. David S. Atlas GG(GIA), ASG, Sr. Mbr. NAJA www.datlas.com

I'll speak to my jeweler about T&W and Keystone. Do they have websites? DiamondLil DiamondLil ________________ "Diamonds are nothing more than chunks of coal that stuck to their jobs."
