I posted earilier today regarding getting my diamond reset and possibly getting a new diamond. I have my heart set on a tapered baguette sidestone engagement ring and matching wedding band. At lunch, I went to Helzberg just to see what they had and try some sets on. I know enough from Pricescope not to buy there, but it''s fun to look. The lady told me the tapered baguettes fall out and they don''t carry them anymore because of this. She also told me that white gold is better than platinum because it''s stronger. My engagement ring now is in a platinum solitare. It has a white gold wrap soldered to it that I got from Helzberg (pre-Pricescope). Even my original engagement ring that was yellow gold had a platinum head holding the diamond. I was always under the impression that platinum was safer.
So my questions are: 1) is white gold really better at securing diamonds and 2) do the tapered baguettes fall out a lot. If so I better change my mind on what I want.
