Hey PS-ers!
I have a 6.6mm diamond studs. They're currently in 6-prong screwbacks, but the back piece is WAY too small and the posts are too skinny, which makes them painful to wear for a long time and kind of droopy due to lack of support on the backside. I have smaller studs that are about 1cttw that have larger posts and back pieces that are great.
I want to get my larger studs reset into a new 6-prong setting with thicker posts and large enough backs (I think I've heard some people call them "elephant backs"?) that it keeps the studs from drooping and is more comfortable to wear. I'm 100% set on screwbacks as I love my 2 other pairs and commit the PS-er sin of wearing my earrings for long periods of time before taking them out to clean them!
At the same time, I would like to get halo jackets made for some extra oomph on dressy occasions. These are "forever earrings" as there is no size upgrade from the 6.6mm since one stone is my original e-ring stone and my lobes are small enough that I would run out of real estate!
Please advise on a good vendor for this project! Many thanks!
