This is my new halo setting, I came over to the white gold side from a yellow gold solitaire with platinum head. My saga of improper setting woes are detailed on PS in the why can't my ring be set right thread.

You can see the warmth in photo of my GOG H&A center stone, I was worried about that with brighter sidestones but the ring looks amazing. I love the delicacy of this ring! Looks very youthful to me (I was youthful...once, now just in my head). I love the profile and the trio of tiny diamonds on side next to curlicues. I may have a wedding band made and wear it over the ring, as in first one on is ering then the wedding band. I just love the side view of the triangle. Then again I really like the look of it alone and my 5 stone wedding band is now a right hand ring so may wear this alone.

The setting was designed and made by Matt, owner of M.K. Winston in Newburyport MA. If you're in MA or NH or Southern Maine, visit Matt and enjoy the charming seaside town too. Some details on his shop are in the setting thread. Not only did he have a setting that filled my requirements (halo, pretty side view with stones) but he promised it in 4 days and delivered in 2! He's a GIA grad and designs and casts in house, repairs, he's the rare one-stop jeweler and he was right in my backyard practically and I didn't know it! M, if you're reading this: I LOVE my ring, you're awesome, and our new family jeweler!

Thanks :)
It's a K. It does face up very white, though. Interesting...I've only seen it look warm in these photos I took, and side by side
with a lighter color it looks a little "different", maybe more silver-like. It likes it's new secure home.

Kitskats, this is such a beautiful halo setting!!! Blingy and yet traditional, with a nice antique touch to it - and I love the profile - this is exactly the type of setting I would like to have, I just really like everything about it - so glad everything finally worked out!
