This is the lucinda, it is basically like the vatche x-prong. The shank tapers from about 3.5mm by the stone to about 2mm between the fingers. I like a tapered cross prong like this with a slightly wider shank for a large stone because it would make me personally feel like the stone was archored to my hand and more safe and secure. There is a PSer with a rock and setting like this. Let me find the thread.

That setting is one of my favorites, the first that came to mind when I was considering this stone! I think I first saw it in the engagement ring folder, and then it was (is?) on JbEG's site. There isn't much $$ left for a setting so I won't likely look up MM for this one but I really do like the Brian Gavin one and I also like the Vatche settings.

Thank you for locating that thread!

I think that a nice x-prong from BGD, asking them to widen the shank to increase the taper, would totally do the trick! And then I will be so jealous!

No way jose! Looks perfect to me! I'll tell you what's too large, your round yellow Barry chryso and you should immediately send it to me.

This stone would look fantastic in rose gold-love the chunkiness!

Without reading the other posts, you just said you love this stone. If you feel comfortable with the size, then no, it's not too big. I think it's just beautiful.

"Too large" is not a concept I'm familiar with.

If you feel like you'll be able to wear it in your everyday life without worrying or feeling conspicuous, wear it and love it in good health! It's stunning.

I have thought about it more, and I actually think it could be bigger. I think you should halo that puppy!

oh, I think it looks great! and a rose gold setting would be lovely. I think either the Grace or Elegance would be a great option :)

Thank you, sig47! I'm not a huge fan of white metals and I think rose gold would really complement the stone's color.

TOO LARGE?!?!?!??!? :confused: Is there such a thing? That stone looks amazing on your hand. Come on, you KNOW you can "rock" it! :naughty: :naughty: (no pun intended LOL)

Ha ha! You're hilarious, Farleysmom! I do think I can rock it :lol: ! I hate to say it, I think part of it is just a confidence thing, combined with the fact that none of my friends upgrade their diamonds ;( .

Oh, my, yes. I used to think it was too large on GOG's website when I looked at it. Twice a day.

I totally think you should return it.

So I can buy it.

Kidding! It's fantastically gorgeous, and in the right setting (another vote for the MM!), I think it will look stunning on you. And, I most sincerely hope you will post many, many, many pics so I can live vicariously .... :devil:

I'm trying to respond to everyone's comments, and each time I do, I discover someone else has given their 2 cents! Thank you everyone! I don't know anybody with a stone this size and to be perfectly honest, I feel a bit shy about wearing this in public. I know, I'll get over it :lol: ! When my husband first saw it, he said "That thing is huge, is there a setting you can get that will make it look smaller?"

So, a great big thank you for all the enthusiasm!

Holy Moley, too large for what???? I really think that is so pretty on your hand. I too have been looking at that stone, and all the other beautiful AVC's for months now. It is so white against your hand. It is nice to see the stones "in real life" I think a simple setting set low would be perfect. Now go and and get her set so we can all be jealous! :naughty:
