what’s your budget for the side stones?I agree with no modern brilliant cut sides, but have seen some lovely mixed cuts I would be happy to set with it I like the idea of checking into having a modern brilliant pair of marquises being cut down to antique looking movals for sides.
I also like the idea of a hidden halo, but do not want too high of a setting.
Also, I saw this beautiful setting on eBay, it’s similar to a halo but adds no bulk at the tips, which I understand you don’t want to add any more length. I neglected to send it to you because I think the stone should be set in something other than white metal and thus I’m not sure if it would work, but as you’re considering a halo type setting still ....
