Hi All,

I have my great grandmother''s 2.4 carat RB and I have been trying to decide on an engagement ring setting for it for ages. I really love so many of SingleStone''s settings, but I unfortunately cannot make it out to California.

So...I''ve been considering having an e-ring made custom - something delicate and finely detailed - similar (but not exact) to Rockzilla''s beauty (photo attached). I have found an excellent local jeweler who specializes in this type of work.

I''m really having a hard time deciding if I want to do split prongs. Does anyone know whether doing split prongs would make the center stone look smaller or larger? And do you think this type of setting would look good with split prongs as opposed to the flat-type ones?

I know it''s a matter of personal preference, but I''m having a really hard time coming to a decision on this!

Also, since I haven''t been able to get contact with Rockzilla herself, would anyone be able to tell from her photos the approx width of the shank? From her pics her ring looks perfect and I''d love to know all the dimensions.

Rockzilla, if you''re out there, thanks for the inspiration and I''d love to know what you think.

Thanks!! My friends all think I''m an obsessed crazy person, so PS is truly a safe haven for someone like me! lol
