So Wink and Melissa are superstars who have been so helpful in getting me to this point. I can't recommend HP Diamonds more highly so far with my dealings with them. They have been amazing in helping choose my stone and talking through my concerns etc. If all goes to plan I will have a nice 2.74 CBI on my finger in the near future.
So now the fun part starts where we conceive the setting.
I am thinking something with a tapered plain platinum band similar to BGD tapered tiffany and CVB Jovyn. A very soft knife edge that rounds out. I want the basket to cup the stone rather than the prongs being straight up and out. A nice gentle curve if you know what I mean. I also love a gap so happy for a donut!!
Here are the existing bands that the new ring will go with. It will sit above the blue band rather than in the middle of the two bands.
I thought I would put it out to everyone here to see if anyone has any ideas to help me pull this setting together. Maybe there are options I haven't thought of.
Maybe the tapered band or soft knife edge will look really bad with my set?? I'd love any feedback. I have full confidence in designing something amazing with Melissa from HPD but thought I'd ask here also.
Thanks for any help you can give.
