3-stone setting help

[motomom]

I''ve picked out a 1.29 h&a rb for the center stone and now I''m trying to decide on what size pears for the side stones. My choices are .16 each or .32 each. This is a 25th anniversary ring. Any thoughts or opinions or hopefully pics

Check this out. For a 1.25 center stone, dvatche uses .51-.55 tcw for the pears (combined) looks nice. If the link doesn't go through correctly, just check out the three stone rings on dvatche.com and check out the rb w/ pear side stones.

good luck

I would personally choose the larger ones. One of my original settings had .15ct pears, and they looked a bit small (next to my original 1.48ct). The only reason the setting still 'worked' was because of other stones that surrounded the pears.
