I'm going for a solitaire. Here is my stone: http://www.loveaffairdiamonds.com/on-hold-2-28ct-old-european-cut-diamond-gia-l-vs2/
My permanent setting will be an antique style 8 prong custom setting similar to this:
But for the time being, I am looking for an INEXPENSIVE 6 prong solitaire setting. I've been perusing the boards for days. These are my favorites so far:
1. This stuller setting:
2. BGD 6 prong solitaire:
3. American Set
Will any of these settings in white gold and rhodium plating match my platinum bands? Another choice is to get a little funky and do Rose or yellow gold. I REALLY don't want to shell out MORE money for platinum if it's going to be a temp setting.....I'm looking to spend $500 or less on the setting.
Plan B is to suck it up and just do the custom 8 prong because it's a typical OEC with a thin girdle. I imagine the 8 prong will offer more protection.
Opinions?
