New here - can you help me find a setting for an old mine cut?

So, my fiance and I talked about it - he's fine with my doing it as long as it doesn't look engagementy, so I'm debating having it set into a right-hand ring. I can't find the paperwork for it, but it's around 85 points (can't remember if that includes the small side diamonds or not), and I'm thinking about a halo, but I'd like to find one with colored gemstones around the edge rather than more diamonds. Does anyone know where I could find a setting for that, or would it need to be custom? I don't really have a huge preference for which gemstone - I love all green, and ruby's my birthstone, so one of those might be fun. Anyway thanks for any help - I look forward to learning a lot here!

That way, it's no longer a ring, you know?

I agree with Surf, because it was an engagement ring, I wouldn't make it into another ring. I would definitely do a pendant. And, it should be a decent sized one at that! BTW- Welcome to Pricescope!

Especially if it's an OMC!! ........................ You say you want diamonds in a ring of gold...but all I want is you...
