8 priong setting for round

[autumngems]

Does anyone know where I can find a relatively inexspensive 8 prong whilte gold solitaire setting 9.3 mm round? It would by my temporary setting until I save enough for the dream setting.
BTW: I mean 8 prongs evenly spread around

wow... this is going to be tough. most of the 8 prongs that I had seen are done in 4 pairs of 2 instead of being evenly spaced. I would be curious to see the outcome and look of the ring when it is completed.

Many of the antique/art deco settings have 8 evenly spaced prongs. As some examples, see:

If you are willing to look on ebay you can find some true antiques or repros!

As another option, you could get this Stuller 8-prong round crown setting - http://www.stuller.com/products/24562/3133192/?groupId=100250 - it comes in both 9mm and 9.5mm, so one of them should work for your stone... just match it up with a basic shank - your local jeweler can order from Stuller and put the whole thing together for you. Stuller is usually pretty reasonably priced, and the quality is good.

Ditto the Stuller recommendation. Shop around at local jewelers and see where you get the best quote. Any of them should be able to order the Stuller parts and put together a solitaire ring for you.
