I would go with spinels or sapphires. Both are tough stones and both offer extra sparkle! Knowing how deeply colored that zircon is I would do medium to hot pink, but that's just me.
This design reminds me of a similar DK ring (that @elle_71125 owns). If you wanted to get a feel for this design set north-south.

Ok I LOVE this one I think more than the east west! So its between the top right one in the collage, I'll call it a half bezel diamond and this one, I'll call a full diamond bezel north south. My heart leans towards this one! Thank you @CHRISTY-DANIELLE :kiss2::love::wavey::appl:

Of course you can manipulate the size of the diamonds in the halo and the size of the sides stones. And decide if you want milgrain or not. But this will make for an easy starting point for DK since they made the original. ;-)

Ok folks I'm back and working currently with DK on this beautiful zircon.
I am now leaning in the pendant direction. I am scared about chipping it somehow in a ring. And my husband is excited to see a colored stone pendant on me.

What do you all think of it?
I still want to do a mermaid ring or pendant someday.

Hi @bling_dream19 ! I'm so excited that you are setting this and with DK (my fave)! It's cool that you got married in December...zircon is a December birthstone! This would make a great 1 year anniversary ring. That stone is too pretty not to be able see it on yourself. Obviously, I'm voting ring :)

I love bezel settings anyway, but I definetly think it's the better choice for a zircon. Zircons can get chipped. A bezel would offer more protection. If you really want prongs consider a faux bezel so the girdle is still protected from blows.

I always pictured this stone set east/ west. But ovals give you lots of options. Even a scalloped halo!

Look forward to seeing what you choose!

Christy,

Could you tell me the source of the top left mount? That is beautiful.

Thank you.

ChristyDanielle also took the time to help with designing and opening up my eyes to new ideas and having fun with style and color! Hugs to you girl! I love the ocean and this zircon just reminds me of the ocean and swimming like a mermaid. DKPV2021-02-17---64620---BSHP--3.jpg DKPV2021-02-17---64620---BSHP--3.jpg
DKJ made this pendant in 14kt WG with 10 pointer F diamonds. Here are the talented DKJ glamor shots! DKPV2021-02-17---64620---BSHP--1.jpg
Thanks for looking and for everyone's help!

Just perfection! DK did a wonderful job setting that beautiful zircon! I am so happy you love the stone, that it reminds you of the sea ( it is such a fantastic color!) And that you had DK make this for you. Really so thrilled for you! :)

Thank you @bling_dream19 it’s been a lovely surprise to get to know someone as kind hearted as you! To make a new friend, who just happens to be a fellow bling lover!!!! I feel fortunate indeed!
So happy you love the zircons, your new zircon pendant is beautiful! I love that it represents the month you were married and knowing how much it makes you think of the ocean.
You know I vote for the mermaid ring, or mermaid earrings. Seeing the gorgeous stones you put together for the mermaid ring made me smile. The colors are just so pretty and soft, at the same time they make a statement. You have a very good eye. Congratulations on your once in a lifetime blingtastic week!!! It couldn’t be happening to a nicer person!

You are soo sweet @Calliecake it really is fun to pick out my jewelry each day! And I usually change out my rhr 2x per day lol! I love a pendant because I don't even feel it on and it's so fun to look in the mirror! Thank you for the coloring compliment, I'm leaning towards bright bold colors these days!
