Love the e/w that Niel posted. I would rock the antique look...
CVB made this lovely setting.

I am glad you found that because I looked last night and gave up! That would probably be my choice!

I think that stone is really too big to set east-west.

Yes if it where me I like in n/s.

But if it where me I'd have passed out from the pure joy of owning it

Here's a12mm one on a size 7, so you see what I mean

Neil, thank you, this one is just to die for! I think my eyes popped out of my head a bit. I'll show this to my jeweler and see what we can cook up.

Isn't that fabulous???!!! I will tell you that very few jewelers have benches with that skill level. I would only trust Sebastien Barier, Steven Kirsch, Victor Canera, Caysie van Bebber, Brilliantly Engaged, or Singlestone with a design similar to that since they have made similar rings before.

The only thing is, that diamond is 11.8 mm wide and the ring is a size 7. Your diamond is not going to work as well east-west with your finger size, in my opinion.

Thanks for sharing photos of your beauty! It's a lovely, very sizable stone. I had a marquise for a VERY brief time (like, days) and I put it in a stone holder when I was dreaming of how to set it. Might be a good way to see if it's comfortable for you EW.

Yup. It definitely is too big.
