I am not sure and can't see clearly form the picture? The picture is on " show me the ring "posted by Circe.I hope I am posting this on the right forum? She allowed me to copy her ring , but I am not that good at this and can't see if in fact all prongs grab the stone or not? Sorry but I am not sure how to attach the lovely picture here for you to see..I am working on my skills in that department.ONe day...thanks for your help..

I'm no expert though. ----------------------------- A deal is only a deal if you are getting exactly what you want.

The stone is held in by 8 prongs, 2 on each corner. This design is perfectly secure and it’s a lovely look.
