Help Finding Split Shank in my budget

[bbfifas]

OK, after months of lurking, posting, and getting hints from the girlfriend, I have settled on an actual ring type, its a good feeling of relief to have half the equation solved. (going with asscher center 1ct)

I want to spend a ceiling of $2200 on a setting only. She loved the following based on a picture line up:

I personally am a big fan of the looks over these:

I can only assume the Leon settings are well above $3000. Does anyone know any other split shanks besides the Danhov one that is around the same price range and look as these? Thanks.

I second the previous poster''s question... Why not go with the one she likes if it''s within your means?

Good point, I agree. I just want too make sure I am not missing some other great setting out there...thanks for the replies. I still like the Danov one the best.

I was also going to suggest knoxjewelers. They have quite a few split shanks that are well-made and very affordable!
