Hello, I am hoping to get some advice and insight on an Asscher ring setting. Ever since I can remember, I have adored the Harry Winston double claw prongs, set with either baguettes, traps, or trillions. So when BF and I began ring shopping, I quickly realized that the 5c HW ring I was drooling over was a tad bit over budget. So I started looking at alternative sizes and settings- solitaire, bezels, even vintage 3 stones. I've narrowed it down and decided that we can probably find a stone in the 2c-3c range. Depending on the size/measurements of the stone, I may decide to set it as a solitaire if it is on the larger side.
So here is one I really liked. It's 2.21 F VS1, Excellent Cut and Symmetry, thick girdle, and 69.8% depth with table at 66%. The stone measures 7x7x4.89. Sorry, photo is a bit off, I took it with my iphone, and its not 100% clear. It was a beautiful stone but I had hoped for something larger in width/length and perhaps would be willing to go down a grade in color. I've been reading all the wonderful suggestions and posts here regarding Asschers and suggested settings and have learned so much. What would you guys do with this stone? Do you think it would look better just a bit bigger?
