Resetting a 3 stone princess ring

DB1011 · Jul 19, 2017

Hello,
I have a 3 stone princess diamond ring I want to reset for my girlfriend. She likes cushion halos, with plain bands. I will likely have to go custom for this project, but I wanted some input on what to ask for, specifically.

These are examples of what she likes. I want to make sure the princess stones "fit" into the cushion halo with minimal gaps (since the shapes are different) so any suggestions on who to go to with this project? She likes smaller diamonds in the halo versus ones that are large and overpower the center diamond.

I was a bit confused about what you're trying to do, but after re-reading your post a few times, I think you want to add halos (cushion-shaped halos) around the princess diamonds of the old three-stone princess ring. The links you have provided use either a cushion cut or a round cut center diamond. I suppose you can halo a princess (or three), but the halo will end up either having a gap, or looking more like a square with rounded corners than a true cushion.

Maybe start by providing some more information about the dimensions of the three princess diamonds.

Do the top two look like what you want?

Martin Flyer (setting only and assuming your stone actually fit is $2580 from JamesAllen)

NOT?
