Help ID this BG FL Setting + Alternatives?

[prettypaper01]

Hi all!! Lurker for years (and years and years ) and so appreciative of this crazy knowledgeable community!!

I am working on a potential upgrade and found a gorgeous setting, but curious if there are similar options out there (that wouldn't have to be "custom")...

Can any of you ID the designer "FL"? I have been googling with no luck I was hoping the designer site would have some similar options.

I LOVE this setting, although I would want a slightly thinner band and a more traditional donut.

Have you seen anything similar to this? Thank you so much in advance!

This is not your average solitaire. Handmade prongs and stone seat are forged from platinum wire and are meticulously built around your stone for a perfect fit, giving it a pristine look and finish that no casting process can achieve. This item is made to order and is a final sale. Price is...

OH MY GOSH THANK YOU!! Not quite as sleek, but SO much closer to budget. I 100% appreciate hand forged rings (I have a VC setting RHR), but for this I couldn't wrap my brain around the price of the one I posted. Thanks again!

So glad I could help!

The reason for the pricing is these are all hand-crafted and hand-forged, not cast. The work is amazing. I love this particular mounting and just recommended it to a friend!

That is a beautiful design! I love simple, sleek and elegant. ("Simple" meaning not visually busy -- not meaning easy to create!)

What about Victor Canera's non-handforged 4 prong basket solitaire? I am sure the finish is beautiful and the price is amazing.
