Ring similar to Tiffany Soleste?

[Watermeloncrawl]

Hi all! I hope you can help me.

My boyfriend and I have discussed looking at rings. I’m interested in the Tiffany Soleste, but not necessarily the price. I really like the double halo and diamond band. I also appreciate that the halo looks petite, if that makes sense. In other words, there’s not a lot of excess metal showing in the halo.

I think our budget will be about $4,000 dollars or less for the diamond and setting. Can anyone help me to find a similar setting in my price range? Or do you have suggestions for stores that may have something similar?

Thanks!

Would you consider preloved? https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/173345927751
The problem is that a setting like that has a lot of diamonds and would typically cost upwards of $3000. That leaves very little for a center diamond.

There are a lot of vendors who do rings inspired by the Tiffany Soleste, but generally not the two tone version.

This is the one we got and it's very pretty IMHO: https://www.jamesallen.com/mobile/e...-edge-pave-diamond-engagement-ring-item-49492

David Klass is making this Soleste-like setting for another forum member for 1,100:

Thank you! I'm super excited I just got the wax mold and final drawing

Do you want a round stone or a cushion? Here is a similar one from JA: https://www.jamesallen.com/engageme...k-double-halo-pave-engagement-ring-item-17845

There's also this one that a lot of people have bought...it has a halo and then an edge halo as opposed to a true double halo, giving it a similar look without the bulkiness: https://www.jamesallen.com/engageme...-edge-pave-diamond-engagement-ring-item-49492

You could get ~.7 round stone for the remaining budget.

My apologies OP, it seems I was wrong about the cost!

Sorry, I forgot to specify that I like the cushion soleste. The first setting you linked looks very nice.

Well in your defense that DK setting is an absolute steal!

I do not think that is representaive of his typical prices. As many will know there is a whole backstory going on in that instance. I paid over double that for my halo made by David Klass a few months ago.

I am aware of the back story. It never hurts to ask though if you're legitimately on a budget.

So here are a few combinations with this setting (you could drop down to 'View With Cushion') https://www.jamesallen.com/engageme...k-double-halo-pave-engagement-ring-item-17845

A few stone possibilities (most happened to have high color but I selected for cut/performance). You could ask JA for a PS discount and pay by wire to get the prices at or under $4k with the above setting in 14k:
Gorgeous and at this size should def be eye clean: https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-diamonds/cushion-cut/0.75-carat-e-color-vs2-clarity-sku-2149322
Also gorgeous but slightly smaller: https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-diamonds/cushion-cut/0.73-carat-e-color-vvs2-clarity-sku-4902717
https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-diamonds/cushion-cut/0.76-carat-f-color-vvs2-clarity-sku-3434396
https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-diamonds/cushion-cut/0.74-carat-f-color-vs2-clarity-sku-5002926
https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-diamonds/cushion-cut/0.80-carat-h-color-vs1-clarity-sku-5077957
https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-diamonds/cushion-cut/0.81-carat-g-color-vvs1-clarity-sku-4831961

It's important to look at measurements with cushions and not just carat weight.

@Watermeloncrawl I actually slightly prefer BN's version bc of the split shank: https://www.bluenile.com/build-your...18k-white-gold_33606?elem=title&track=product

And here are a few BN stone options:

Diamonds by Lauren is pretty well known for that setting too, colored diamonds or white.

Oh, I like this setting too! I do like the split shank. Thank you for linking diamonds that are nice. I’m kind of lost when it comes to what determines a nice cushion cut, so I know my boyfriend would be even more lost. I really appreciate you taking the time!

I have a lot to think about. I’ll show my boyfriend a few of the options and see what he thinks.

That's what we're here for! Cushions are not the easiest to choose so be sure to get our help once it's time to actually select a stone!
