Pear Pendant - Halo or No Halo?

[FancyDiamond]

I am thinking about getting a pear pendant. I love the clean, crisp, and elegant look of a simple prong setting. Unfortunately, my budget is limited, and I cannot get a large pear. The largest possible pear diamond I can get will fit in a small 10x7mm frame, which I think will look too tiny compared to the rest of the necklace. One solution is to get a halo setting, which will boost the size of my pendant to 12.5x9mm (perfect size in my opinion). Other than extra cost, I am not sure if the halo look will be too busy.

Please help me decide by voting and proviiding comments.

BTW - No bezel for my pear.

The photo is for a ring, so use your imagination to think of the setting for a pendant instead.
