I am forever grateful to Wink & Melissa at HPD for helping me set a stone I got elsewhere into a Vatche setting and allowing me to have the setting I wanted and stay within budget (separate post to come on my great experience later).
I just wanted to ask for some of your opinions on my Vatche Felicity Setting which is absolutely lovely and beautiful and I get tonnes of compliments on it. When you look at the ring front on, you can see metal on the sides (in most lighting conditions it's hardly noticeable). Would this bother you or am I silly for noticing? It is only after seeing the macro photo that I noticed (picture below)
I emailed Vatche and they said it is within the acceptable parameters of center stone setting from the factory but are willing to adjust it for me if I send it back. Shipping back and forth from Australia will easily be a few hundred dollars though. I've seen a slightly smaller stone from WF (0.728 while mine is 0.8 ) in this setting and it doesn't seem to have this problem: http://www.whiteflash.com/photos/2016/05/vatche-1513-felicity-solitaire-engagement-ring_44262_23327_g-21182.jpg
Appreciate your views and opinions!
Thanks everyone
