I love this radiant ring I tried on, in an art deco setting.....but I'm worried that in the future, I might not be happy with this diamond in another setting, say a Vatche x prong... BUT With a round, it might not look as square/deco of a look even in a vintage-type setting, but I have the ability to change it in the future (if desired) to practically anything...... I guess I would need a diamond dealer who would Definitely be around for the next 30 years...??? How do most people trade up/in ?? What if the business isn't around anymore? Any suggestions? Also wondering if Radiants "Appear" larger than rounds of the same carat wt.

My sister just upgraded to a 1.07 carat round brilliant in a 4 prong platinum setting. It's so sparkly, looks as big as the (over) 2 carat radiant. I think radiants generally have more depth, so they don't appear as large as a RB.
