I bought a 1.17 round for a center stone and was wondering what
would be a good size choice for the side diamonds? I''m looking
at 0.44 for the sides..do you think that will look good?
Yes, they will look nice. A bit on the small side, but very nice.If you want it to stand out a little more, use 55 or 60 pointers. I strongly recommend you to select stones matching the center diamond for color and cut. As for clarity, in those smaller sizes, you can go w/SI 2's without any problem.
