Hello all! :wavey:

My hubby just bought me a 3.19 VS1 M AVC and I am seriously thinking about putting it in the Tacori HT2607. Does anyone out there have any lovely lower colored diamonds that are in a halo? I would love to see them. I'm hoping this will give me an idea what it would look like.
 
Wow thanks Maisie! Those videos really helped.

I kinda love the contrast do the m center with the whiter melee....am I crazy lol
 
I don't think you are crazy! But I would suggest (if possible) that you try and see this combination in person to make sure you love it before you order the setting.

I have a GIA L OEC in a Tacori setting with halo. I rarely see a contrast and if I do, it's quite complimenting.

Wow! Thanks for sharing that...so pretty! So does the contrast of the L and the white melee ever bother you? Especially inside your house? I have noticed that's when mine really shows the color... Just curious. I don't know anyone with anything even remotely similar to actually see it in person.

Well...my mom has a fancy yellow pear in a halo but I think that's a little different since her color is a lot stronger

The color never bothers me. Most of the time, it matches up pretty well with the melee in the halo. But, unfortunately, color is a preference and is different with everyone. What you see, I may not see and vice versa.

Do you have any Tacori retailers in your area?

Yes there is one that I know of. I know I want to see the setting in person to see how wide the band is before I purchase. I am kind of a stickler when it comes to band width. I personally like bands that are about 2mm wide. I just think they look better on my short fingers.
 
It's not a ring but I have a diamond pendant where the center stone is an M and the halo stones are F-G. I really only notice a slight difference in certain lighting.

Wow you can't even tell yours is an M!
 
I have an L asscher in a G H halo and I rarely actually notice it. It helps that I can't see the side view which is where the most yellow usually shows. Try to see if you can see it just plopped in a setting beforehand to get an idea.
 
I have an EGL J, so really probably actually an L, in a halo with G/H melee and I notice a slight difference in some lighting, but it doesn't bother me. It's not everyone's cup of tea though, so it would be good if you could see the contrast in person.
 
You are going to see contrast.

See in the picture below how the center looks warm compared to the halo?

This is what you will see.

I think I like the contrast...it sort of makes the center stone stand out.
 
Yes, GIA M in halo:

Wow Crystal thank you! And I adore your new diamond, I can't wait to see how you set it! The tacori setting you have your eye on is really beautiful.
