I posted here months and months ago looking for ideas on how to set my new asscher in a non-prong setting, after I had the traumatic experience of LOSING my first asscher from a custom (and flawed) setting for my engagement ring!




Well, luckily for us my first stone was insured and the insurance company was cooperative, so my fiance and i purchased a second, comparable stone and then we shopped around until we found a custom designer in San Francisco with whom we felt comfortable.


Together, we designed a fabulous non-prong setting that I think shows off the geometry of my beautiful stone.


I would never brag about my stone in the real world -- but I''m excited to show it off to you asscher fans!!


Here goes -- details of the stone as follows:


2.15
Internally Flawless
E
Excellent polish
Excellent symmetry
Depth: 67.9%
Table: 61%

I am attaching a picture of the stone. I have some other views of it, but can''t figure out how to attach more than one photo, so perhaps I''ll post message with more pix.


I would never wish losing an engagement stone on anyone. But, thankfully, mine turned out to have a happy ending.


Happy Friday everyone!

I am usually a more antique style girl but I love your ultra modern setting. I think it looks great! That might be my favorite asscher setting on here (at least modern setting). I am sure the whole process was a headache (losing the first stone) but this is a very happy ending! Congratulations!!!

Very nice! The brushed tone to your ring makes the asscher just pop out and be such the center of attention. (As if with those specs there was any doubt!) Just gorgeous!!!!

That''s a truly stunning setting and Asscher! I love it!

I''m sorry you had to go through the loss of your Asscher, but that is certainly what insurance is for. I wanted bezel set for exactly that reason. Wear it in good health!

I''m sorry you lost your first stone. This setting does appear to be more secure. I think it sets of the stone perfectly.

Absolutely stunning design. I love the setting and how clean it looks. Simple and clean. Great design. The stone is wonderful to. I''m not much of an ascher fan but the design matches the stone brilliantly.

Thanks for sharing!

Would I be a pain to demand hand shots?

As another SF gal with an asscher (albeit an itty bitty baby next to your stone, hee hee) I''d love to see what this great ring looks like on your hand.

And congrats on your engagement/marriage!
