Oh, sorry! I do now recall that Dimend Scaasi doesn't sell their settings unless you buy a diamond. I think they are missing many sales because of that!

I don't think this is true anymore. I asked them last summer and they would sell their settings.

Try Stephanie Kats ([email protected]) ... she is amazing.

ETA: Oops .. I just read their formal response. I guess it was a policy but I was going there in person.

Can I throw out some other ideas? I haven't followed your journey so I don't know what you like or don't like. I hear you are finding the 3/4 small - have you thought about getting a halo setting instead? This would make the diamond look way bigger. Just trying to think outside the box.

This auction is ending soon. Great seller.

You can put any head on this one.

And a platinum blue nile setting. I know very different than what you are looking at but I think it is pretty.

I think OP is from over a year ago, so perhaps he is not looking anymore. But I am! I am thinking about 1-1.2 carats.

So just to confirm they don't just sell the Allesandra?

Hello Pricescopers--thank you all for the favorable votes for our pretty Alessandra (we are introducing another version soon).
I wanted to announce we are happy to sell any of our settings to the Pricescope community, with additional discounts on setting and reduced center stone setting prices. This will be easier with the launch of our new site, we will then post a promo code Pricescope users can enter in our Shopping Cart.

This also include custom design services, 3D CAD renders, realistic images and 3D mold printing.
I know this response borders on self promoting no-nos, but I wanted to place this post for you all to know. I hope the moderators allow it

Happy shopping.
SCAASI

Any other tapered solitaires I should consider? I am leaning towards the Alessandra.

I voted 3. Such a clean, simple classic.

I chose 1, but think 1 or 9 or 10.

How about the Vatche Felicity? The tapered part is 1.3mm and I think it is one of the thinnest tapered solitaire I ve seen so far. It would certainly make your diamond pop!

If you like the 4 prong look, there's Vatche Bliss, which I think is lovely as well. It does have upper knife edge look but rounded down.

The only thing is I dont know if these settings are sold separately. Good luck with your search. Hope to see some photos soon!
