Hi all,
If someone could be so kind to help me visualize, explain to my guy ( I am not good with details and descriptive words, along with being new to the diamond world) the differences b/w the stuller 4 prong solstice and the blue nile 18k White Gold Four-Prong Solitaire Setting. I am going to attempt to attach pictures of both. Thanks so much. Leslie

Welcome Leslie

1.
There is a difference in the shapes of 2 shanks (the band part of a ring), Solstice can be ordered in different options - tapered (narrowed toward the head) and not, also Knife edge (narrowed toward the top of the band) or Comfort fit which seems to be the one in your picture.

2.
BN's ring prongs are cut lower so you can see the culet of a diamond and they are separated, Solstice has prongs connected higher forming sort of water lily shape.

Hope this helps
