Looking for very delicate pave setting for princess cut.

Hello,
Im having trouble finding a lovely delicate thin band for a solitaire princess to sit in. I want a pave band, but even the look of the Tiffany Grace is a little "chunky" to me. I want to really accentuate the Princess without adding a halo, but think a delicate pave band with matching wedder would be gorgeous.

Can I see pics of anyone with a 1.5 carat princess and also suggestions of where to find such a band?

Thank you so much :)
 
What is your budget?
 
I also like a very subtle split shank - still pave.

Probably $1500-$2000 budget (just for band).

I don't object to halo either but want very delicate. I have a size 4 3/4 finger and want good finger coverage but want main diamond to pop!
 
I can't seem to find the mm measurement for the Tiffany Grace style? 2mm is pretty thin and dainty and I've heard you shouldn't go less than that for pave without an edge.
 
If you can forgo the split shank, a really delicate ring would be WF's Legato Pave. I'm actually buying one myself for my gf, and it's definitely one of the more delicate settings I've seen. It tapers like the Tiffany Grace, but more heavily towards the center to make the center stone really 'pop'. The widest point of the band is 2.5mm. I'm also a fan of the Legato head, it gives it something different.

Here's a few pictures of another PSer's ring (can't remember exactly who, my apologies!), but it has a 0.82ct round in it and it shows the taper well

Thank you everyone for you help. Decisions decisions!

I suppose I want to see the diamonds in the band more than the metal, but don't want a chunky or modern look.

Im considering a halo with rounded edges (like a cushion would have) so soften it.

Im going to be upgrading my 0.83 princess to a 1.5 princess (approx) and not sure if a jump in stone size like this will really warrant a halo (although I do want finger coverage and bling - but want it to be delicate and classy).

I live in Australia also so would be taking a pic into my local jeweller who I have used for my current ring and wedding band.

Any more pics/ideas would be great. I would love to have a visual of what a 1.5 carat would be like on my 4 3/4 size finger, so if anyone happens to have same size finger and has a princess either solitaire or halo Id love to see them.

Thanks again so so much!
 
I did a quick search for you, couldn't find a picture with 4.75 finger with a princess but I came close

Here's a 1.51 Princess on a size 5 finger

I love love love this setting!!! How do I explain this to my jewellery?
 
I feel like the best way is to just show the jeweler pictures of the setting, so there isn't any miscommunication
 
Laurenk, which setting do you like? Just curious =)
 
Jumpin Jacks - the subtle split shank link you posted! It's gorgeous!!! I'm going to print this picture. Thank you.
 
Hawk25 you are so kind to post those pics you found - appreciate it!
