valeria101 Ideal Rock Total Posts: 14,048 Last Post: 4/30/2006 Member Since: 8/29/2003	Yeah... one more vote for step cut sides. Of them, straight baguettes would likely be the lest expensive and asscher sides the most (smaller for weight because specilaized sidestone shapes are usually spready). Inbetween there is a number of interesting step cut shapes starting with tappered baguettes, and traps (trapezoids) to some unusual finds like these step cut triangles: You may find some examples on icestore.com, and there is a page with sidestones at Diamonds by Lauren (LINK) you may find useful. Btw, pink baguettes anyone ? This one below come from HERE and there are a few more classic asscher rings on that site. For what that matters, the last would be my pic of the list - I like trap sides and the bezel setting also makes a point for me. These are 'bullet' sides - to me, a more interesting version of straight-edge sides when skinny baguettes would just not do: The ring is quite something too (link to source). Hope this helps Ana "The greatest experts are only as good as the sum total of what they have seen." [Souren Melikian]
