To halo my three stone?

[magnolia87]

I posted earlier about searching for a band for my three stone. But now I've come to a dilemma...when I go to try on bands I'm always drawn back over to the halos that I so fiercely avoided during the initial ring search! The problem is, I never felt like I found one that was delicate enough. I always felt like the ones I tried on were clunky and overpowered the stone! But, alas, I have come across:

This is very similar to what I'd have in mind. But...I'm just not sure the budget would allow for work like his.

Anybody have any other suggestions or ideas about ways to "jazz up" a three stone? I loved a setting I saw way back when but can't remember where...it was a halo of just the center stone with a micro pave split shank.

Suggestions about a new setting OR beautiful band that could bring some bling to my finger would be appreciated!

Saw a post from March...Jane? I think? That is simply scrumptious!

I like the 3 stones where only the center stone is haloed. Gives you extra bling without overdoing it.

Something like this but with a round halo and done by one of the masters...

I like tyty's 3rd & 4th suggestions above. I prefer it shown in the plain shank - lets the halo and the 3 stones stand out and be the focus. Also may allow for a blingier wedding band to go along with it - depending on how that may work with the ering.

I love the fourth one that tyty posted. I've always felt that a haloed three stone was a bit too much, for me anyway, but I really like the haloed center, with the sidestones and plain shank and agree with enerchi that it leaves you with the option of adding a pave wedding band as well.

I love the 4th option! My only concern that with the side stones being just over half cts each they may look like afterthoughts rather than something that is delicately part of the setting? Would this be too much? Am I over thinking it? (I know the answer to that is yes)

I have been pondering a 3 stone halo reset myself, and came across this beauty...isn't it gorgeous?!!

I have a three stone halo! To be honest I considered dismantling it for a while to make it a regular 3 stone because my engagement ring is an OEC in a halo. But I couldn't bear to do it. The halos really increase the bling factor.
