Photoshop help please - should I reset TC into yellow bezel?

[zhuzhu]

I have seen Uppy amazingly transformed her OEC from white metal setting to yellow, and can''t help but wondering if my transitional cut will also look better if I re-set it in yellow gold. May I ask for photoshop help to visualize how my diamond may look in yellow gold setting?

Here is a hand shot in the exiting antique WG setting. I will post close-up pic of the diamond next.

Here is my baby.
I do like the current WG setting, but since the diamond is a light yellow, sometimes it blends into the unplated WG too much.
Is it possible to plate it with yellow gold?

I don''t think it''s possible to plate in yellow gold.

I think it looks beautiful the way it is - and I don''t have photoshop - sorry! Hopefully someone can help you out

Correct me if I am wrong

I think you can only YG plate over silver? Is this correct?

BTW I think it is gorgeous as is!

I am not sure either, but I see QVC sells jewelry that they claim to be "gold plated". That is why I thought it is possible

To the best of my knowledge, you can totally plate it yellow: that said, I think it''s beautiful as it is, and would look quite anachronistic in yellow. The blending of a warm diamond and white gold is very beautiful to my eye (and makes the diamond bigger!), so why mess with a good thing?

I have been pairing the transitional cut (wearing as right hand ring) with different rings, and I think it looks really sharp next to a yellow gold band. Maybe I will start mixing metals in rings until I feel 100% sure about changing the setting permanently. I do find that it is much less commonly done with rings compared to bracelets though.

 

[zhuzhu]

One more combination.

I like the contrast of the mixed metals with the yellow gold rings with your solitaire.

here you go!

Ooh yes, I do like it in the YG. Nice job!

It does look like it would stand out more in the yellow gold (I like it)!
