When hubs and I got engaged in 2010, we were on a tight budget and had decided to put the majority of our ring funds into the diamond and save the setting I had my eye on for a later reset. 4 years, 2 moves, 2 new jobs, and 1 precious new baby later, it was finally time to have my reset done. I researched for months and months, and even changed my mind from where I started and ended up at Jewels by Erica Grace. I love cushion cut diamonds but a cushion cut with the finger coverage I wanted was way too expensive so I chose a 1.7 carat round brilliant. Thank goodness JbEG makes a gorgeous cushion halo to accommodate a round diamond, and manage to do so with no gaps in the rounded corners. I have no idea how it works, but it just does. So, first is my original, shown with my existing 1.0 carat eternity wedding band.

And now my reset. For reference, the center stone is 1.7 RB J color SI1. Finger size 6.5

I'll add a WOW! What a difference! Lovely!

Thank you!! I am wearing it with my eternity band, but it is noticeably wider than the band on the new setting and I'm still feeling that out. I love it, and they both fit me beautifully, but the eternity is obviously not made with my new setting in mind and they are resting against each other but do not fit together. They don't need to fit together, but I need to wear them for a little while to see exactly what or if I need to add a spacer or something. Here's another pic; so sorry for the poor quality on my iPhone.

Beautiful halo! Jbeg did an amazing job! The new setting and the set look gorgeous on you! :appl:
 
Beautiful! What a phenomenal transformation. You must be in love!
 
This is really gorgeous, I am a halo fan and yours looks amazing on you! Congrats!
 
Your new ring is beautiful! :love: I do think a spacer ring will help. Try various kinds of thin bands in between the two.
 
Congrats, it looks great now, I bet you are still getting used to the extra bling :sun: :sun: :sun:
 
Absolutely stunning!!! :appl:
 
A beautiful reset! Congratulations!
 
+++what everyone else said!
 
Is this a reset? Is your 1.7 a stone you had in a different setting? I guess I'm not understanding. If the stone
is new and the setting is new then it would be an upgrade not a reset.

Either way its truely beautiful!
 
Beautiful ring!
 
Congratulations! Your ring is gorgeous :love:
 
So great that it is everything you want it to be. I hear you. I love the cushion look as well! Congratulations on a project successfully completed.
 
wow congrats!!!!!!! :love: beautiful!!!
 
BEE-YOOO-TIFUL!! It seems to come *alive* in the new halo setting!! Just gorgeous - perfect choice for a reset!
 
I love the view in the third picture where you can see virtually the entire stone. Hope you enjoy it for a good long time!
 
Another WOW just WOW for you - I adore rounds in cushion halos, and yours is perfection!
