I had an old poll like this 2 years ago but I figured I'd make a new one just to see how the splits are now and add all the designers I could think of (I'm sure I still missed some, sorry!!) to see where the bulk is...two years ago it was huge on Vatche and custom design and 'other'. Curious on how things have changed in 2006!

Here is a link to the old thread...these were totally the most popular designers in 2003! Daniel K was so not even on the radar and neither was titanium really...or Ritani and WF was just starting custom design. We hadn't even heard of Quest or SP on here! How times change....

Sorry they aren't in alphabetic order, I just kept adding...heheee.

"cheap"

it is always harder to find a "mind clean" stone than a eye clean stone.

I know, so many!! There are tons more out there I am sure, but I tried to get most everyone we hear discussed on here who does settings or custom that I could recall. I almost forgot Facets!

I just read the old thread which was way before my PS days. It's so funny to read what some of the members had back then. Kayla talking about hoping to work with Leon and has since had a Leon, sold it, and now has a Ritani. Then Boom told about hoping to work with Leon some day and low and behold there is her thread over in SMTR 3 years later with pics of her Leon...so boom, did Leon remember you?

I voted "other", although my setting is "customized" rather than entirely custom made as per the original poll.

Gah, can't wait to get it!

Other - Custom made/designed by me! Well, not made by me, but I saw a ring and told my jeweler the changes I would like made.

The ring under my name is martin flyer, 10 year anniversary gift.  My original engagment ring was a custom designed by a store (NOT a mall store) I have no idea of the designer though.

that's the reason i only buy "cheap" setting for my wife. i don't mind spending 4k on a setting if she's going to keep it forever, but you know women  change their mind everyday and there goes 4k FLUSHHHhhhh down the toilet.

it is always harder to find a "mind clean" stone than a eye clean stone.

Well... He said he did when I emailed him last year about this project.  Of course I'd attached the 'old' mail, so that might have jogged his memory.  No discount though

It didn't really include the true option of mine, which is as someone said, "cheap" - i.e. not another 'designer' and not exactly 'custom' either.  Just generic, intended to hold my stone until I find what I want.

girl you were way to subtle. I would have highlighted the discount offer and reminded him to include in my price quote

Vatche - though I'm not sure I would pick it again.  I'd probably have something similar made with similar proportions.  The markup is too high.
