Hi PS Friends,
I'm still looking through pictures of rings on pricescope before pulling the trigger on a ring and was hoping if someone can set me straight on the types/styles of prongs I've seen. Some prongs look less "delicate" than others. Specifically, all the hand forged ones look so perfect whereas the others. I know the other well known vendors do a great job as well but the real life photos just appear more bulky in the real life photos. I personally have an engagement ring that wasn't hand forged and when I'm looking at the prongs in person, they look great and I have no issues! However, when I photograph them, it gives that "bulky" appearance as well so I feel like I shouldn't be strictly relying on pictures when trying to decide between vendors.
So I guess I'm just asking whether it's worth it to pay the extra money for a setting that is hand forged on a simple ring if I'm just noticing the difference in the prongs? I've never seen a ring made by LM, SK, or VC in person so I'm just not sure. I hope this question makes sense and I'm not the only OCD one who gets bothered by prongs.
Thanks in advance!
