I'm looking for inspiration for my 1.67 champagne diamond reset.
She's in a rose gold antique setting that doesn't do her justice... so if you have a champagne or light brown diamond set in anything white gold, I'd love to see it!
I especially would like to see halo type settings.
Thanks in advance!
 
I have multiple pictures of my champagne diamond in this thread:

Advice on ring setting

This setting suits an oval stone really well as well! Must have been a tough choice. I think it will be about getting the proportions right because the stone I've purchased is likely considerably smaller. I'm thinking to have the jeweller draw up a design like this, one with a tapered plain...

Here's a halo option that I also considered, but decided to go with the white gold to match my wedding band:

Beautiful!
My diamond is lighter than your though, it's the one in my profile pic... Could you post a pic of your final setting choice?

ETA : The actual diamond I'm looking to reset is the one on my profile pic.

Sure, this is the setting I have now. And there are hand shots here:

Advice on ring setting

Hello! I'm in the process of planning a surprise engagement ring for my partner. I posted a thread when looking for the stone and received some great feedback which was really reassuring and helpful in making the decision on the stone! I'm hoping to pick your minds again and ask a few...

I have a fancy yellow Moissanite in almost the same setting as my champagne diamond above: 14k white gold with moissanite pave. It looks really nice, but it's in my safety deposit at the bank. I was planning on heading over there this morning. If I get the ring today, I'll post pictures later. But check out this link. I was thinking about resetting my fancy yellow stone in the yellow gold halo above, and I found this for inspiration.

1.47ctw Fancy Yellow Emerald Cut Diamond Halo Ring - jewelsbygrace

Elegant and chic, as only a fancy yellow emerald cut diamond in a gorgeous halo can be! The diamond is beautiful, with such a deeply saturated yellow color to her, and set in a yellow gold gallery with icy-white melee in the halo, allowing the central diamond to pop in contrast. Meticulous...

Personally, I think white gold is the way to go. It really showcases the color of the champagne diamond, whether fancy brown or fancy yellow. I will try to find more pictures online if I can't get my ring today. Edit: I found some pictures. Edit #2. I know you want a halo, but I am in love with the first option, below, simple and elegant.

Please advise on a stray cat, so conflicted

Hi all, I need some unbiased advice about a stray cat. Long story short: what is more important for the cat, freedom or affection? Long story: I have friends who live in a neighborhood with a deaf stray cat. Several families feed it, occasionally pet him, but for 7 plus years he has been...

I love white gold to make the stone pop with color but I do prefer yellow gold for the prongs as it will enhance the color of the diamond.

Honestly, I feel like white metals wash out lighter brown stones. I recently had a brownish yellow (it's a light brown color similar to yours) reset from Platinum to a Yellow Gold setting with a white gold head. I also have a darker brown diamond set in white gold and it looks nice but it's the contrast between the darker stone and white metal.

This is mine. Sold to me as a light champagne diamond. I bought it off LT with the intention of resetting into a white gold halo. But now I think it is too pale and it won’t have enough contrast by the way it looks in its current setting. I’m now leaning towards a gold/rose gold setting197CC562-8872-411A-8B4D-F68A700531A6.jpeg

I would be interested in seeing it in a white gold halo! My diamond in rose gold looks awful (in my opinion at least).
 
I took a closer look at your stone, it's a beautiful light yellow. Are you still thinking about white gold? @Nikki1415 made a good point about yellow gold bringing out the color in hers. I love her yellow gold setting. What did you think about this yellow gold halo? The center stone is a similar shade to yours.

I always loved the Tiffany Soleste with a yellow diamond. But then I just didn't want to do a double halo. Leon thought it would look good, I probably should have listened to him!

@NightOwlInCanada
A champagne diamond would look great in a halo of white diamonds. Champagne is just a very light yellow. You want to play up the color with contrast. 18kt gold would look nice, but I like platinum too.
 
Good Morning. I just saw this halo ring on another thread, and I thought you might like to see it:
