Hi all!

I'm a long time lurker but first time poster! Just have to say you guys are simply awesome and I have learnt so much from everyone! Thanks heaps!

Hopefully someone could help me with my question. My dear bf has decided that im way too picky and he will never be able to pick out the perfect ring for me, so hes given me the ok to go nuts and design my own.... Which suits me just fine!

I have absolutely fallen in love with twosanguinehearts' two row emilya and also GOGs AVRs. So imagine my utter disappointment when i found out that VC did not set AV stones!

At the moment im tossing up between the two row emilya + canera european round vs AVR + a setting similar to the emilya but made by SK. The only thing holding me back from going all out VC is that im not 100% sure if i like the canera european rounds....despite the fact i love the oec look i actually prefer no (or a very small) culet... And VC's stones seem to all have a large culet...im not sure how obvious this is IRL. Also IMO the lighting in VC's pictures and videos make it hard to see what the stone actually looks like. Since im in Australia, in person inspections are a little difficult!

So I was just wondering if anyone had a canera european round? If so, could they please please please share some non-VC photos or videos of their stone so i can see the faceting and how it looks under different lighting?

Feel free to also put in your 2cents re: Full on VC vs GOG+SK combo if you like!

Thanks so much!!!!!!!
 
What size center stone are you thinking?
 
Hi

Im looking for a 7mm+ stone... Around the 1.6ct mark.

Thanks!
 
Hopefully others will chime in, but my guess is that in a stone that size you will be able to see a large culet.
 
Thanks! That confirms my suspicions as well.
 
I haven't seen an Canera Euro round in person so it may be that the culet wouldn't be visible, so really this is just my best guess.

Have you looked through VC's youtube page? Here is one video with .80 ct Canera Euros:

Maybe VC would make a video for you so you can get a better idea about the culet????
 
Vc is also consistently having new stones cut ... Depending on your timing, you could request one without a culet
