I have a .99 F SI2 (eyeclean) Princess of Hearts that I am dropping off with Maytal tomorrow. I''m so excited! I can NOT wait to get the setting back!
It will be set in a bezel halo with G color brilliant trap sides- I forget the ct weight offhand. (Originally I had told her step traps but changed my mind). The side of the halo will be engraved (rather than pave because I want it set as low as possible). The corners of the halo (like where prong placement would be) will be pave.
I had told her I wanted the halo bezel because I wanted the shape of the PoH to be emphasized. I know the majority prefers the prong halo (and I sure love delicate claw prongs), but I would really hate for my unique stone shape to get lost in a halo.
The shank will be pave a little more than 3/4. At the traps it may be at or a bit under 3mm to be able to taper to 2mm or so. On the sides of the ring there will be a few pave diamonds. I believe, like angeline (?) had mentioned, the sides bevel out a bit. A band will be able to sit close, but not flush (just as I want).
I''ve been debating on things to make my setting more my setting... I don''t really want mine to be exactly like anyone elses... but I can''t decide on any particular design element in the gallery. Other than that... I think everything else is decided. I can''t say enough how easy Maytal is to work with and how beautifully perfect her work is.
I.CAN''T.WAIT!
That''s all I got to say... I just could not wait 4-6 weeks to say, "Here''s my Maytal!" I just had to say that my Maytal ring is on it''s way. weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
