Anyone use Pompeii3 for settings? I want a plain solitaire setting for a RHR (looking at the thick banded solitaire here in either rose or yellow) with no diamonds or sidestones, so quality of side stones would not be an issue. They are listed as A- with the BBB. Anyone have experience with them (just the quality of the product; I'll have it set locally in house).

Also, how would proportions be with that with a 6 mm stone so that the stone pops? I would also consider the knife edge solitaire or the thinner 3mm solitaire WG setting if proportionally that would look better with the stone. I have skinny fingers and am a size 6.
Any other experience with other vendors, etc? I'm also looking at a few Stuller settings. I want it to be substantial enough for everyday wear but I don't want the band to overpower the stone.
EDIT: I am also considering having it set by DanielM on etsy in his classic u prong setting with the double claw prongs, but to stay within my budget, I'd need to go with a sterling shank and a WG head. Would that be sturdy enough or is it wiser to go gold?
Thanks!
