I''m looking for a 6-prong solitaire setting for a round diamond that has a half round, not knife edge, shank. Everything I come across seems to have some variation on a knife edge. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks so much!

Hi there! Here is a link to my ring from WF, set in their classic Tiff setting, but with a rounded band in yellow gold. Since these pics were taken, I had it slightly altered so that the band is more rounded on the top, which gives it a less square look and perhaps a bit more fluid. I definately think it looks thinner too. I am sure that if you were to get this setting from WF, they could make it more rounded. I was unsure what I wanted originally, and they absolutely made what I asked for, but when I got it, I thought about it, and decided it needed more rounding, just to balance out the size of the centre stone and to make the band look thinner.

Can''t give you pics of the altered band yet, as I am still to be asked that special question, and said ring is still in the safe! Good luck!

Hi rnussbaum,

I agree with honey22 that most vendors will be able to make custom modifications to their settings. I had the same concern. I was in love with the basket of the SC Tiffany setting, but I didn’t want a knife edge band either. I wanted a comfort fit band instead. Barry at Excel Diamonds has been a pleasure to work with and he assured me that my requests could be accommodated. Unfortunately, like honey22, I don’t yet have the ring in my possession – it was just put into production a week ago. But, I should be getting it in about another week and will post pics then.
