I''ve narrowed down my choices for style of e-ring setting and was hoping to get some input from the PS crowd. I tend to be a bit long-winded online but please bear with me if this sort of thing interests you. The stone is going to be round and in the 1-1.25 carat range. I''m considering I in color but may go one grade in either direction. The setting will be platinum.
I was interested in a half bezel setting from the beginning because we''re pretty active. I''ve read some things that say they are safer - others say not really so much and choose by aesthetics alone. The Claude Thibadeau setting (hopefully attachment worked) was the first one I saw that I really liked. I wanted to keep it a secret but thought I better get her opinion. I would like to say it jumped off the screen for her but not so much. Unfortunately, she''s not a big jewelery afficianado and after days of searching she hasn''t really found anything she likes better. In fact, the Claude Thibadeau setting is now one of her favorites. The other is one of the X-prong trellis types from Vatache (Whiteflash has one too). Could the final choices be any different? She wants me to decide!
