Hi Pscopers! Thanks in advance for your opinions on this!
I have an OEC .80 stone that I would like to set in a relatively traditional 6-prong solitaire platinum setting for my e-ring. I''ve seen many beautiful 6-prong settings here but none of the incorporate all the elements that I like:
Scoopy, rounded, delicate prongs (like mara’s link - you both have beautiful rings!)
Peg head so that it will sit flush with my channel set eternity band
A very low setting/head
The prongs oriented so that two are at 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock (like LLL’s link - love your ring LLL!)
Slight knife-edge but flat sides on the shank
A little heavier/thinker on the bottom of the shank than the top
Slight taper as the shank nears the stone
Given what I’m looking for, do you all think it would be worthwhile to go custom? Or should I just go with something like the stuller solstice? If I go custom, will I be spending a whole lot more money than I need to?
Also, do you think that the elements that I like will look good together and with my channel set eternity band (which has princess cut diamonds in it)? My ring size is 6.25 or 6.5.
Opinions??
Thanks!
