I just LOVE the 5 stone rings.
During my time with PS I have had a uprong 5 stone with .40 pinters, uprong 5 stone with .30 pointers, and open trellis graduated 5 stone with larger 1.52ct center.
Recently I had an unfortunate mishap with my most recent 5 stone
So decided
1. to source some BGD signature rounds
2. Being an admirer of @MakingTheGrade & @Dandi 5 stone rings; wanted a slightly graduated 5 stone.

Initially I was going to purchase the sig rounds and send to DK (absolutely love and adicted to their collaborative design process) but decided to have BGD do the setting so -one stop shop.

previous 5 stones we always set low. This time around I request stones set JUST high enough to see culets (easy cleaning and I LOVE seeing the tables and culets in my settings- could be an addiction could be OCD...I don't know. )

As u know DK design process is very transparent and allows customer to see every detail. DK spoils us that way and I dig that about DK! But different vendors have different design process.

So I sent a photo of what I thought was open trellis and again requested stones set not TOO high but just high enough to see culet.

finished ring...

I noticed

Though all set slightly higher than I anticipated,
- they appear to be at same height meaning sides not tucked under.
- ring has a curve appeal - which i think I like
 
CAD
As u can see, CAD does not show stones set slightly higher to see culets, was informed this process would be completed during the setting of the stones process. So I was unable to see, how high stones would be set.

Attached is example i provided of projected height of stones.

Also attached are CADs

Can’t wait to see hand shots! It is fabulous!!!!
 
I think the height looks fabulous and it looks perfect on your finger, but you need to love it! How do you feel about the height in person?
 
I love this & I also think the height is perfect!
 
Oh my! That's a STUNNER!!!
 
Looks perfect on your hand-a happiness ending to the story!
 
I’m so glad you posted pics! I’ve been thinking about you and hoping you would have a happy ending… I love the setting and being able to see the tables and culets- I totally get that!!!! It’s beautiful on you!

Now that she’s on your finger, how are you feeling about the height?
 
Gorgeous! What are the sizes of the stones?
 
Wow that’s gorgeous! I do agree with you that it is set a bit high. You’re also used to your former ring which was on the lower side. So maybe it’s just not what you’re used to? However, I always think our gut reaction is the correct one.
 
This is beautiful on your finger and is just gorgeous with your wedding band.
 
Stunning and great presence on your hand :kiss2:
 
Ohh, it is so beautiful! I am so glad for you to have this ring on your finger after all you went through! Those diamonds - what color are they anyway? - with that gold band is just gorgeous! I am so, so happy for you! Are you happy with the height - sounds like it was a bit different than what you were expecting but do you love it? It is beautiful and can’t wait to hear your thoughts!
 
Love that!!!
Thank u so much @diamondringlover!!!

Gorgeous!

While set higher than the CADs, the diamonds look pretty close to your example photo.

IMHO the effect is just what you were hoping for.
 
Oh my! That's a STUNNER!!!

Yes ma'am it is definitely a happy ending to my experience.

4.62/5.25/6.15/5.10/4.61

Thank you so much @MissGotRocks! Bgd really did not disappoint. The stones are waaaaay brighter than my previous 5 stone. This ring is H's and K's. My previous ones were Q ctr (faint brown)with L and M sides.

Gorgeous!

Thank you for the compliment. To your point the inspiration photo diamond height is nearly the same height as my ring. But to my eye...wow ! really high off finger. The ctr is only 3.85mm deep so height off finger is probably about 6mm off finger which isn't bad.
 
It turned out beautiful @ZestfullyBling ! So sorry about the mishap along the way, but ultimately you have a gorgeous ring with
Super Ideals! So pretty!
