Hi there,
Hoping for some opinions on a recent remodel of my 1.4ct princess solitaire. I spent a long time deciding but went ahead with re-setting in a double edge halo - however the more I look at it over the past couple of months, I am drawn to viewing it as 'rocky' looking, rather than the seamless glitz I was hoping for. Am I overthinking it, or should it be more seamless ? What would help, would it make a difference if the melee had shared prongs to be closer together (I see that each halo stone has 4 individual prongs). I was told the centre stone needed to be slightly raised above the halo (its only slightly higher), however is that correct or can it be totally flush with the halo, so the straight edges on the princess stone are less obvious. It looks better in night lights / sunshine but the rest of the time I glance at it and just see the rockiness of it if that makes sense. Starting to regret changing it from solitaire now
Grateful for any advice - even if it's to tell me it's all fine and stop being paranoid !
Thanks
