Looking for inspiration for a small emerald cut sapphire and haven't found "the one" yet, looking for inspiration/help. It's a smaller stone, so I am looking for a setting that will bulk it up.
(Interesting asscher setting ideas would also work.)

Thank you!

I'm having something set right now that fits the bill. ..but no pics yet. (Hopefully any day now!) It took me forever to decide, I searched all over PS, google, IG for ideas. I had a bunch in my phone but deleted most once I decided. But here's a few I still had.

one of my previous ring

Gorgeous! I actually have this ring saved in my jewelry idea folder. I think that the stone I have would be too small for this setting and I was really hoping to play up the EC shape a bit more. Kind of stuck on the art deco vibe. But I do love the feminine feel of this setting, I wonder if Caysie can work her magic

Shoulders like this would be stunning with a halo’d EC Art Deco style!
Or
I’d rotate this and go e/w. And nix one of the current shoulder stones.

Would love to see your stone?

She is a little Padparadscha at 1.38ct and 6.85 x 5.85.

I plan to make a RHR, so I am looking to avoid anything to engagement ring looking. Originally I was thinking the new Esti style, but then I was worried that it was going to be too dainty. Caysie suggested this amazing double halo with onyx french cuts and diamonds. I love it, but am worried that the onyx will distract from the pad. (1st world problems, I know)

If you do the french cuts, maybe just diamonds and not the onyx? She's great about modifying her settings. I would suggest you go through her instagram photos and reference to her particular elements you like and you could come up with a beauty unique to you.

Have you seen the Astrid set e/w? That would be lovely with an interior halo.

I don’t think the onyx would distract.
Ohhh, your right. I don't know why I had such a hard time visualizing it. Thank you for the photoshop! I was trying to sketch it out and doing a horrible job of it:lol-2:

I had worked on a few sketches earlier today, just playing around, now I am torn.

My halo art-déco inspiration rings: look forward to seeing your creation!
Oh my, your avatar ring is to stunning!:love:

Thank you for sharing, the settings are beautiful. Unfortunately, every setting that I like seems to work best for much larger stones. I guess that I am a size whore at heart:mrgreen2:

This is one that was due about two weeks ago but there have been delays in its completion. I will share photos once I have the ring.

Aquamarine (my birthstone) and diamond ring from T&Co.

OMG I'm in love with your ring! Your photos are going in my inspiration file.

Do you mind if I ask what the size is of the aqua? It is perfect.

@RunningwithScissors It isn't the easiest thing to measure set, but about 11x8 for the stone(maybe a smidge larger).
