Thoughts on this Design - RB with Marquis Sidestones?

[jgny]

I am in the process of designing my upgrade ring. Thinking about a RB (approx 3 ct) surrounded by marquise sidestones. Inspired by the Tiffany Victoria collection, but I like having much smaller sidestones so that the center stone "pops" but I have finger coverage. See below for my rough sketch, I see the rest of the band as micropave, and that it is a very slim band.

Thoughts on this design? Has anyone seen anything like this by any of the designers?

This is the Tiffany Victoria ring (starting point for inspiration).

This is Matata''s ring (I hope she doesn''t mind me using her thread for you) from Brian Gavin Diamonds. I think the design is gorgeous.

I love this design. I don''t like marquis diamonds as center stones, but I love them as sidestones---looking like "leaves."

This ring is from Blue Nile...no micropave though.

Singlestone has done a similar design...

Thank everyone! I tried to do it in Photoshop but it looked so scary - these are some really great examples of similar settings. A bit undecided about either doing a RB or a cushion so matata''s ring helps give me an idea. I''m leaning towards having the side marquise stones on the smaller side - kinda the "feel" of trillions or tapered baguettes, but with the "leaves" of the marquise. Thanks for the links to similar rings, so very helpful!!!
