6-prongs setting for 0.7ct diamond?

[Sarahm]

I have a quesion: will 6-prongs setting make the 0.7ct round diamond looks smaller?
I prefer 6-Prongs. I am afraid that, for the 0.7ct size, the 4-prongs will make the diamond looks "square".

Thanks

six prong will be lovely. What vendor and setting are you using? if you have them shave down the prongs to make them as delicate and fluid as possible I think you''ll be really happy with it.

Thanks, do you have any recommendation?
I just searched whiteflash and Jamesallen, and can't decide which setting I should get?

Depends where you are getting your stone and your total budget.

I like this 6 prong tiffany style setting:http://www.briangavindiamonds.com/home/ring-details/?product_id=5478 but it is $750

these are also really nice:
this looks good if the prongs are shaved down:

also the whiteflash one like this that is also $250 looks nice with the prongs shaved down.


this one from JamesAllen is quite nice, esp. if you want something a little old fashioned and unique:

adiamor.com also has some great settings at low prices.

I would agree with you on the four prongs making a diamond of that size look more square. Even for my 2.14ct I went with 6 prongs to avoid this affect.

I would prefer to support a sponsor of this site, but in this case I have to say... the BGD tiffany 6 prong replica is my favorite replica.
