Please help me find a bezel pendant!

[thecat]

Hi all,

I was all ready to get my pendant stone from BGD but I asked Jamie to release it as I can't find a bezel setting that I like. I'd like a bezel setting with a bale for a round diamond. The bale must be large enough to detach chain in case I want to swap chain length. The closest I can find is at Stuller but it's back set bezel, meaning beads hold the diamond in place at the back. But I want a true bezel. Nothing like that at Adwar and Unique Settings. I don't want to customise at this point as this isn't my ultimate size for pendant. Yet I don't want to make do and set it in a back set bezel as I have no idea when I'm upgrading my pendant. I can't believe I've to cancel a purchase not because of the diamond but due to the setting. Your help is much appreciated. Thank you.

Cant you do something like this with a bail that opens and closes?

I would have gotten the pendant in 1st link if not for back set. I saw a video once of back setting with beads. Now I wonder if my understanding of back set is wrong. Anyone knows if back set can also mean folding the entire sheet over the back of the diamond or only using beads?

Union Diamond has one similar to what you describe. They are online and have a store in Atlanta. No recommendation or anything, I had looked at them when I was buying a diamond pendant this summer.
