Two years ago, I received a .60ct G SI1 ACA in a simple knife-edge band. I loved my ring but longed for an elaborate setting. After some thought I decided on a reset and couldn't be happier with the results! I would like to thanks Angeleyez and Svtmal for being my inspiration. Thank You both for sharing your beautiful rings

And also Dramer Dachsie for lending her expertise and guidance and most importantly to the sweet voiced Luann at I.D. Jewelery!

Beautiful reset. I also plan on resetting my solitare with sidestones into a halo- i just love the look of it. Is your stone a RB set into a halo that makes it look more cushion? i couldn''t tell.

how beautiful! that's a lovely setting, akmiss!

congratulations on a completely successful transition :)

ETA after a second look - just struck me that your center stone seems the exact right proportions for the setting. a really lovely combination!

Yes the center stone is a RB with a cushion halo. The setting definitely has a cushion feel to it. Sorry my picture quality is not that great. I am just a horrible photographer... I had the hardest time with the pictures that I posted. Maybe I will try again tomorrow with better lighting.

Thanks whitby. I was worried that my center stone wouldn''t do the setting justice but it turned out better than I had expected.

It''s an amazing transformation from solitaire to halo. I''ve always admired the Grace setting. I think it looks fabulous!
