Solstice knife edge setting

[CurlyM-C]

Does anyone know where I can find a picture of this setting? I think it maybe exactly what I want, but I''ve only seen the pic in GOG''s Stuller catalog. I''m considering the 6 low prong in platinum. It looks a little less heavy than the bombe shank. I''m obsessed with the shape of prongs. I don''t like the blades for prongs on "Tiffany style" solitaires. I love the true Tiffany prongs, but don''t like how tall the knife edge shank is on the reproductions. This looks a little less severe.

I adore the Solstice head. I have a 4 prong low set Solstice head on my wedding ring but if I were to get a solitaire, I think I''d go with the 6 prong medium height head.

I think this is the knife edge:

This is the solstice but NOT the peg head. See how the head sits right IN the band? I think the peg head sits up higher on top of a base, like the picture above.

NiceIce (and probably others too) make two versions of Tiffany-like rings: one with knife edge, one without link to relevant page. The version with the rounded shank is presented with a diamond placed on but not set - this is why the prongs look weird. No good ?

I think there is a Solstice setting on "Show me the ring"... if you have the patience to look.

The prongs look quite a bit more "substantial" than either Tifany''s or the "Tiffany style" versions out there.
