I''ll keep you posted, i had my mother try on the ring at local jeweler to get an opinion on the fit since I wanted to keep this a secret from the gf til the proposal. To her, it felt pretty natural so I believe it''s not too far off from a normal band.

Now all I have to do is secretly get my girlfriend''s ring size!

*drool* I love that setting!!! Can''t wait to see the finished product!!

Gorgeous and well done, man!

Pretty setting. The stone is set very high in the photo. Does your GF like the look and feel of a high stone?

Oooh, that Verragio is devine! I''ve seen it in person and it''s lovely - nice work!

Thanks for all the comments! I''ve asked her casually years ago whether or not she likes high settings vs. low profile ones after looking at some of her rings, and her answer at the time was that she didn''t have a preference. Hopefully that didn''t change....

I recently purchase the same setting, I ordered it before Christmas and have been anxiously awaiting its arrival. I tried searching for the setting pictures high and low to no avail. Luckily there was a store in Houston that had it, so I checked it out and loved it. Great choice!

 

[missismene]

fancy! i am also wondering how it feels when on.
good luck.
for the ring size- call someone, don''t let that hold you up.
