Help with setting

[Loren]

Hi again everyone....so I ended up getting a diamond from Blue Nile and then had it appraised yesterday. Everything looks good. Its a 1.25 carat round cut. I''ve been trying to find a jeweler in my area to get a setting but haven''t had much luck. She likes simple solitaire rings and needs something low set due to her job. Does anyone know of some good low set solitaire ideas?...I like the Vatche X prong but there aren''t any dealers near me...how can I get a similar setting??...do I buy one off the net then take both the setting and the stone to a jeweler? Thanks.

Buy the setting from Whiteflash, ship the stone to them, and have them set it. Or, see if you can buy just the setting from Whiteflash, ship both the stone and the setting back to Blue Nile, and have them set it. That way, if anything happens to the stone during the setting process (unlikely but it happens), replacing the stone is Blue Nile''s responsibility, since you bought it from them.

Thanks. I''ll give whiteflash a call. I don''t think blue nile will set your stone in someone else''s setting but I''ll try that as well. Thanks so much.....

Here are some low settings I''ve always liked. My friend had her diamond from elsewhere set by the folks at knox:

This one is still low, but not as low and allows a band to sit flush: http://www.knoxjewelers.biz/index.htm?crn=261&rn=1146&action=show_detail

Here''s another pretty and low solitaire: http://www.knoxjewelers.biz/index.htm?crn=261&rn=681&action=show_detail
