One of the rings I'm looking at has a RB in the center with two RBs on either side set in platinum (BlueNile). The total carat weight for the setting is a minimum of .70. By my calculations, each diamond in the setting should be about .17. Do you have an example of what .17 looks like? I never can appreciate the full effect of the cartoon hand wearing the ring

What weight center stone are you looking at?  That will also affect how .17 sidestones will appear.

Between 1.3 and 1.5 carat RB in the center.

Here is a picture of a 1.1 point Eightstar with a 5 stone band of 20 pointers.  Hope this helps.

How do you think 18 pointers will look with a round diamond in the middle of about 1.3 to 1.5 carats?
