If so...

-Did you upgrade the diamonds?
-If not, how did it look? [I know it''s hit or miss]
-Do you find the bezel edge damages easily - i.e., will it dent if you run into something?

Thanks! :)

Wow, your ring is gorgeous! Thanks for the link. I wish the settings had names so we could search for them on here!

I own it with upgraded diamonds, but the diamonds are so incredibly tiny, I''m not sure it''s worth upgrading. I personally like the similar looking split shank halo better than this ring.

Do you mean this one?

I wonder if anyone here has it. I also like it...but, I guess I can''t figure out the differences in his pricing. It has basically the same tcw of diamonds, but this one is $100 more...?

Yes I''ve got the original setting you asked about. I upgraded the diamonds because the cost was minimal. However as TL has said the diamonds are TINY! Here''s some pics of mine:

You asked about whether it''s a sturdy ring? It''s not flimsy but it''s not the heaviest ring in the world. Will it withstand some knocks? Yes I think so.

The only difference I had was that I all millgraining added to the edges. My jeweller is currently setting a sapphire in the centre but they''re also going to millgrain the bezel which I think will complete the look.

I really like the milgrain! It adds just the right touch. :)

Thanks for the info. It''s a hard decision to make. I like the one I posted, and I also like the one with the split shank that was posted above.

I''m looking for what would look best for this stone from Gene. I decided that the previous setting from LOGR was too high, so I returned it and the pink tourmaline. Now I have this project. :)

That''s a stone from Gene? It looks like Barry''s cuts and photography? Gorgeous no matter what though. And I think it will be great in either of those LOGRs. I can''t wait to see pics!!

I would not bezel that stone, it will look too dark. I think you should get a four prong setting like the trellis that BEG has, or a setting with an open gallery, but not a bezel.

Oh my god, you are totally right.

it is BARRY''s stone. I''ve had little sleep this week and have been looking at many stones. :)

So you think it will become too darkif bezeled? Doesn''t the first LOGR bezel have an "open gallery"? Or maybe I misunderstand what that means...

Thanks for your advice.

The first LOGR is a bezel setting, not a good one for your stone. I definitely think it would be too dark bezeled. You''ll see when you get it, but I think it would do better in a four prong setting.

TL, you are a lifesaver with your advice regarding bezeling stones....THANK YOU for being so honest....I''m learning so much from you...one of my bezeled stones is WAY too dark and I''m having it reset.

A white gold trellis like BEG has, or a three stone ring with two small diamonds or white sapphires.

Yes, please don''t bezel that stone, it''ll end up almost black looking. It needs a lot of light from the sides to brighten it, so an open prong style setting is best. I like the split shank prong set that was posted here.

I agree on not bezeling! That spinel looks a lot like the photos of mine when it's purple, and I'm really glad I didn't bezel it. It catches so much light and sparkles like crazy but it would have been way too dark bezeled. I like the trellis a lot because it sets it a little higher (but not too high) and lets light hit it really well.

Beautiful stone by the way!
