Does anyone have pics of 3-stone with princess center, different sides?

[Shiny42805]

I knew this would happen... my original princess stone (unfortunate victim to the car door) was replaced by a cushion that I LOVE so much - but I can''t get that princess out of my head!!!

I want another one.

It can''t be too large - maybe .75 tops, due to budget constraints. I''m looking to put a different shape on the sides, because 3 princess side by side is a little too angular for me.

Would half moons work? Maybe just rounds? I''m thinking of even doing colored stones on the sides...I don''t want it to look like an engagement ring.

Would love some idea/recommendations/advice/photos/whatever you''ve got.

Thanks!!

My previous ER was a princess with two rounds. I Like the idea of some kind of colored side stones.

I''ve seen a princess center with trillion sides before.. I think I like that combo best with a princess center..

I''ve hit some B&M stores, and discovered that I really don''t like princess with trillions on my hand.

How do you feel about a princess with half moons, similar to this?

******** UPDATE!!!!! *********

OK - I ended up making some unexpected choices and ordered a custom piece! It turns out that a 3-stone with a .75 center looked too much like an engagement ring to me, and was not providing me the finger coverage I wanted. My right hand is a pretty fleshy 7.25. I almost walked away from the whole idea, until my husband suggested a halo. Duh!

I chose a .80ct D SI2 princess center. The stone has a colored imperfection (a tiny red crystal pin dot!) visible with the naked eye, but only from the side. Luckily the spot remains hidden because the stone is low set and the pavilion isn''t visible. It''s blindingly white... and the icing on the cake: It fell perfectly within budget!

I''ve actually never seen a red crystal inclusion in person before - I kinda like knowing that it''s there! It''s pretty neat!

The setting is 18k white gold: cathedral with milgrained edging and 5 graduated (largest on the bottom, tapering towards the top) diamonds on each shoulder. The shoulders taper up to meet a prong set indigo blue sapphire half moon (.40ct each) on each side, and the flat side of each half moon rests against a milgrained rounded-square diamond halo. The .80ct princess is low-set (but not bezeled) within the halo. The gallery is also milgrained and diamond encrusted - it has an M-like shape for my new last name.

TCW of the setting is going to be approx 80-85 points.

It should be done in 2 weeks or so - definitely in time for our first anniversary on 11/23. We''re headed to a Broadway show and dinner in the city, so I think I may have a re-proposal on my hands!

CAN''T WAIT to post pics!!!
