Hello everyone!
I am a long time lurker. After 9 months I finally sourced a stone from JannPaul. It is a Brellia 2.056 ct Cushion, G, VS2. I have included some images for you. I think I did okay on the stone. Now I need some help with the perfect setting.
After a bunch of research I have decided to go with the Victor Canera Emilya Halo in Platinum. Victor's craftsmanship seems precise and gives a delicate appearance.
My future fiance has a ring size of 5.75 and I think this will look great on her!
I am looking for some assistance with a few questions that I have from others who have used Victor. They are as follows:
1.) Is it important to tell Victor the angle of the melee around the main stone? I have seen people who note 25 degrees. Is this his default?
2.) Should the melee stones be a G color as well?
3.) What is the best way to ensure that the wedding band can sit flush? From my research on here I have seen that for sure there should not be pave around the doughnut but it appears without a spacer if you are to proceed then you will have to give up the doughnut similar to [URL='https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/im-now-a-member-of-the-victor-canera-club.176673/']https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/im-now-a-member-of-the-victor-canera-club.176673/[/URL]
4.) Band thickness of 1.9 mm due to finger size?
5.) Anything else I should be aware of? Specify size of melee, etc?
I am getting extremely excited as she has had her heart set on a Brellia stone and she thinks that no one had any inventory in the carat range we were looking in so I anticipate she will be quite surprised!

This is such an exciting time and you are creating a very special and beautiful ring. Very lucky future fiance! 
As far as all of your questions, Victor will be able to answer them the best. As you begin the design process each of these questions will come up and he will be able to help and advise you. He does have an Emilya design that will allow for a wedder to sit flush and I believe that he uses F/G VS melee, so those should be easy. As far as the tilt, I've seen different degrees so it's preference and he will be able to tell you which he thinks would be most visual appealing for you specific stone. I like a 1.8-2mm shank as well. Will the setting be plat? VIctor is amazing and I think that once you've had a chance to discuss the project with him you will become much more comfortable and leaving many of the minute details in his hands. It's going to be a spectacular ring and I"m looking forward to hearing about your progress!!
