ritani setting issue

[kellydean]

do any of you think the Ritani endless love setting without halo will be too thin and not substantial enough for a 3 carat emerald cut diamond? I love the setting but all the pics of it look like the little diamonds are .. well..LITTLE. I have a solitaire now and I wanted more bling but......

Can you post a pic of what you're referring to? The one I'm imagining is bright set with a thick band, seems very sturdy.

Maybe I'm not calling it right. their micro pave band with diamonds around the basket. is looks to be about 2 mm

This seems pretty sturdy to me.

yes, that seems to be the one. so do you think a 3 carat emerald cut would look good in that setting?

As for your question about sturdiness, I think it would be fine as there is a lot of metal in that shank.

As for how it would look, that's a personal thing, but in my head I think it would be lovely

Thanks for the link to the picture, I think it will look good too. my problem is that my ring came from Ritani and it is a solitaire which I thought I wanted but now I want more. I have gotten quotes from Victor Canera and Leon Mege and Brian Gavin. The real problem is that I have to send off the diamond to them and husband is just not of the online era and just getting the Ritani was ONLY because of the instore preview option.(he CAN'T buy things he can't hold first!!!) I am VERY happy with stone but it seems I have to go with Ritani with a reset because the first purchase turned out well. The only jewelry store in my area not in a mall just brought in 3 stones with NO paperwork and said OK pick one. so I am limited as to what he is comfortable with.(and he told me this morning to choose well because there is only one more shot at this..HaHa)

Hmm.. Well....let's think.

The jeweler that had the in store preview, do they have other ritani settings in stock? Could they get you some in stock so you can see what the setting looks like?

They are about 2 hours away, but I called them and they have some settings but none that can accommodate the size. So they have to order from Ritani too. To tell the truth, they seem reluctant and I think they just might want to sell me something else and I KNOW what I don't want but getting what I DO want seems harder than I thought!! this is my 25 year anniversary upgrade and I KNOW it will be my last so.... I guess I will just have to go there and look and be firm !!! LOL

There's always 50 years (Congrats btw )

I know the feeling of having the local jeweler pushing something you ARENT looking for. Good luck!

I have a 3.10 ct cushion in that setting. I've had it for about 6 years and wear it daily, even while sleeping. It has held up beautifully!
