Thank you all once again for all your help. I am getting closer....


Ok so I already posted the ACA center stone I purchased from WF.


And just today I decided to go with the Harmony setting also from WF! (Thanks LynnB for sharing!)


I''m wondering whether the sidestones in the setting will make the I colored center stone look warmer than if it were in a solitare?


Any thoughts?

 
Sorry, the side stones are Color: F/G, Clarity: VS

Here are the center stone specs:

. Star : 53
. Pavilion Angle: 40.6
. Pavilion %: 42.6

. Light Performance: 0
. Polish: Ideal

I think the melee are small enough that it is very unlikely they will make the honker center stone appear warmer :) If you are really worried perhaps you could ask them to use G/H stones or H/I instead of F/G but that may cost extra or delay delivery as they may have to then specially craft it. It is worth calling and asking though if you are really worried!

I typically make them the same color. or at most one color grade off. since its melee and on the shank it probably wont matter. ask if they have H/I options for the shank. but melee stones are so small its hard to get them to be super white and bright anyway it likely wont impact your center stone much especially since your center is a great cut
 
You shouldn''t notice much of a difference. My center stone is an I princess, and while I don''t have sidestones, I do have F/G princess surprise diamonds, and they don''t make the center stone appear any warmer.
 
should be fine.my wife wears a I color E-ring with a WF F/G color w-band.

Nothing to worry about, it will be fine!
