Help deciding which Rhodolite Garnet and setting :)

[userangl28212003]

Hi. I love the rasberry color of Rhodolite Garnets and with all the sales going on decided to get on and place it in one of the settings from Ivy and Rose. I really love the antique checkerboard cut and it is between these 2 setting below. As well as I don't have a marquise shape stone yet which intrigues me and that setting would look gorgeous with it. Please let me know your opinions as well as what do you think about these settings in yellow gold. Thanks .






Second stone and setting

Both are lovely! I like the Marquise setting more so that's my vote.

I like the Marquise setting more, but the cushion stone more. The checkerboard is really neat.

Me too, the Marquise is unusual and elegant. My favorite shade of pomegranate.

I love the marquise stone and setting. I would pick one of the other two though, since I don’t like to bezel dark stones in case it makes them look even darker.

Thanks guys for your input, but I decided instead to buy a victorian garnet and pearl ring instead
