The stone is not back yet but should be soon! It was 1 ct. before and he projected .82 after. It was worth it to me to turn it into a beautifully cut stone!

I had Brian cut my .99ct light brown diamond down to .80ct and you wouldn't recognize the stone when it got back. You're going to love it and I can't wait to see pics!

Hmmm, I know Tiffany bezels have the fixed chain, but I am not sure how it would lie with the open culet. That is my hesitation with that style. I'd love to see yours, too!

I may have voted for the wrong one as the descriptions were not clear to me.

I'm towards prong set halo too, with fixed chain. I know if I talk myself into the stock setting of 3 prong or 4 prong, I will regret later.
Are you thinking about 1 pointer or 2 pointers? Cut down pave or V pave? Do you have a design/ reference # in mind? I saw your daughter's wedding band, it was very beautiful! I wonder how Maytel's halo compares to SK's.
The back really is lovely in person. It's very swoopy, delicate, and pretty. I scrounged up a few more pictures from my thread that might give you a better idea. I have had several slider pendants in the past--never liked the fixed ones as much--and this on is by far the prettiest, the least flippy, and the most glamorous-looking with its super-thin bezel and its fireball of a diamond. Here are a couple photos I grabbed that show the back:diamondseeker2006|1303676909|2904178 said:kittybean- your Barbara pendant influenced me a lot to consider that setting since your stone is similar size to mine! I am glad you have been pleased with it! I wish I could see the back in person but it helps to read that you think it is pretty!
I think I have about talked myself into needing one of each pendant!!!
