Very simple setting. 4 prong and inset to prevent snags (wife''s request). It is 18k white gold, but the F color diamond made the white gold too yellow, so had it rhodium plated.
Just curious, does it have both papers, GIA and AGS, or is the vender telling you what it would be in one system while having the paper in the other?Date: 7/17/2008 9:10:21 AM

MikeRato,
The weight is .85 and the spread is 6.12 x 3.76. The too yellow comment I made earlier was concerning the 18k white gold ring. The diamond is an F color and I honestly think the very strong blue fluorescence may even accentuate the clear/icy color. Even though the ring was 18k white gold, the cut and color of the diamond exposed a yellowish tint on the ring. To me personally...and I''m sure it''s strictly a matter of personal taste, the yellowish tint of the ring, however faint it was, clashed with the diamond. So....I took the ring to a local Jewelry store and had it rhodium plated. That completely resolved what I perceived as a distraction from the beauty of the stone itself.
It''s a ''branded diamond'' with AGS 0''s and GIA EX''s. It came with a gemex or whatever it''s called report with all 3 catagories in the very high zones. It also came with another companies brilliance measurement of I believe 96. The type of setting I picked and the decision to rhodium plate it was my best attempt to draw attention to just the diamond itself.
