Okay everyone...everyone give me some help in regards to finding a setting for this stone:

http://www.whiteflash.com/hearts_arrows/Whiteflash-ACA-cut-diamond-2192267.htm

I really like the Sierra setting at Whiteflash but having a hard time wondering if it will help bring out that stone:

Also like this one as well:

Anyone have any suggestions on what they think would be best? I know setting is a personal thing but some feedback helps!
 
I think the sierra would be lovely!
 
I am not sure about double claw prongs or a six prong solitaire on a ~1ct diamond. To me, those styles look better on larger diamonds, like over 1.5ct. I think a 4 prong solitaire with single claw prongs might be better. Like the legato sleek line perhaps.

I like them both but I think I would go with the sierra just to have something that looks a little different.

Cant lose either way!
 
I really like the Sierra setting. I haven''t seen that one before. Its very pretty.
 
Sierra for me... totally gorgeous and I love the thin claw prongs. There is one person here on PS that has that setting with a 1.5 ct RB. Its even more beautiful in person... thread
 
Let me see if I can post the pics that WF sent me of a .90 in the Sierra setting and see if your opinions are the same or if anyone would like to add one.



Not sure if this is going to work...

Feedback please! :-)

OH honey, get the Sierra, its looks FAB! Dont let the double-prongs scare you away, they a very delicate and Ive seen doubles on .50 and they look great.
 
ooo, it gorgeous! I really like that setting, haven''t seen the Sierra before. I love it! I think it looks great with that size stone. I don''t think the double prongs are too overstated at all.
 
I think it looks great with that size stone.
 
Thanks so far to everyone who has gave an opinion so far! Definitely leaning toward the Sierra....but still have a few more days to think it through.

More feedback would be welcomed!
 
About to make this purchase and just wanted to bump to see if I could get anymore last second (or day) opinions? lol. :-)

I still love it
 
Oh, definitely the Sierra! I love the look of the double-prongs, beautiful!
 
I personally think double claw prongs can make a stone under 1 carat look slightly smaller than a 6 prong or a regular 4 prong head. I prefer the Tiffany 6 prong, but it looks like I''m in the minority.

After seeing the pictures I am converted. It looks amazing.

In person, the claws will not look "double" though, they will just look slightly wider than single claw prongs. Real life is just so much smaller than in person.
 
It''s definitely a nice setting though, I do agree.
 
I still say Sierra:-)
 
You''d be happy with either but I prefer the Sienna. I love the swoop of the profile and the way it attaches to the split prongs.
 
I LOVE the Sierra! It will look Gorgeous!
