My girlfriend and I were shopping for an engagement ring the other day, and we found one that she really liked at Zales Outlet; however, the vendor who supplies them with their rings will only let them choose a diamond for the ring based on color, clarity, and size, but not cut.
A few days later, we went to the non-outlet version of Zales, hoping that they could get the same ring and exchange the diamond that comes with the ring for another one; however, when I asked if they could provide me with an Ideal-Scope image, or an Ogi, Sarin, or Helium report for the new diamond, I only received blank stairs.
Since then I’ve tried to find similar settings at Good Old Gold, Whiteflash, and Blue Nile, but I haven’t had much luck.
I also attached a rough sketch of the ring that we saw. Thanks in advance if anyone could direct me to where they saw a similar setting somewhere else.
On a side note: I think that I may have also noticed that one of the prongs holding one of the smaller side diamonds in place (please see attached sketch) extended over the diamond a little less than the other three. I wonder if this says something about the vendor’s workmanship. Could someone please comment?
Thank you in advance for any help.
