Hello!
I've decided on a diamond! I'll post the ASET & IS photos within the next few days. At the moment I'm trying to figure out the setting. My stone is 7.20mm wide, I'm going with a 3.6mm band, essentially half the diamond's diameter. I like the thicker metal look, but I'm not sure about the reverse taper, assuming that's what it's called. Here are some photos of my hand, and the setting, I'll be having it remade with a round stone instead. It's hard to tell, but the taper actually graduates slightly larger as it goes up, opposed to the more common narrowing taper. It's either stick with the 'reverse taper' or go for none at all, I don't know how to decide.
It's so minute of a detail, but definitely changes the aesthetic. The stone in the photo is about 8mm or so, and the band is 4mm roughly, we've scaled my setting slightly smaller, but with similar proportions. Any thoughts or suggestions on how to choose, maybe I'm missing something in my thought process. Thanks!
