2 sets of trapezoids as side stones?

[LD]

Has anybody got or seen (or can find a picture of) a central stone (mine is a radiant) with a trapezoid either side and then another trapezoid again (so basically the two act to look like one huge trapezoid). Does that make sense?

This is what I''m trying to achieve but it''s one thing playing on Powerpoint it''s another seeing it come to life and I don''t want to be horribly disappointed

Although my finger size is a 6 my fingers are quite podgy so I need finger coverage so the ring doesn''t get lost! If you have any other ideas how I can achieve this, please chime in.

Nice idea! I don''t recall seeing anything but maybe someone else will know.

LD, how big of a center stone do you have? I''m just thinking, a size 6 is not huge....and I''m wondering if 2 stones on each side "might" be too much?

I was wondering that - good point, on the size of the centre diamond.

Hi LD, my ring is a 5.5 size, and has a cushion cut center with half moons and then traps. Not exactly what you were looking for but a similar look.

Oooooo Mayachel - looks great! Do you have a top shot please?

Lorelei/Ellen - Central radiant is 1.01ct but faces up quite small at 5.65 x 5.11 x 3.84 mm. However, from clipped longest edge to clipped longest edge it''s only 3.5-4mm max. So the first trap would be 4mm on the longest edge and about 3mm (ish) on the shortest. The next trap would then need to be 3mm x 2mm (or thereabouts) so will be quite small I think.

That sounds fine then!

I think it would look great in real life. That look reminds me of some Leon Mege rings like this one.

If you insist...

 

[tyty333]

Oh, I like the idea and think it would look great!

 

[LD]

Mayachel - very pretty indeed. It''s good to see how the dimensions work. Thanks for sharing.

I''m very excited now! I think the traps have to be step cuts not brilliant cuts - what does everybody else think?

 

[coatimundi_org]

I think it will look very cool--and deco with the step cuts. I love the Leon that Thingo posted. Very exciting LD!

 

[stepcutnut]

LD-I looked at a ring with a round center and 4 sets of trap cut sapphires on each side, channel set, it was lovely!!!

Definitely step cuts!

 

[tyty333]

This isnt traps but I thought you might want to see it maybe for size comparisons...
