TL,

I agree yellow gold. OK, I would sit and stare at this beauty all day. Any idea where you will get the setting from.

I can''t wait to see it set.

Where else? LOGR. I''m of the belief that I much rather more $$ on the stone than the setting. For me, it''s all about the stone, and even if the setting is cheap, I feel the ring will still look great if it''s a great stone. Besides, for the $$$, I think LOGR makes very nice quality settings.

Love the new addition!!! What fabulous color

 

[klewis]

Congratulations on your new stone. Wow! super colour and so big! It''s great to see the three together in that pic.

LOGR does 18kt yellow gold, right? I wonder how much more “buttery” their 18kt yellow gold is.

 

[T L]

It''s average 18K gold color, not super buttery. Hoever some 18K yellow gold alloys are more buttery than others. As a jeweler, you can buy various shades of 18K gold alloy depending on the look you''re trying to achieve (some more buttery than others). I don''t know if it''s worth it in this case to go with 18K yellow gold for an LOGR.

Thank to everyone for the additional kind words.

TL- Wow, that stone has presence!! Love the photo with spess collection. It''s so interesting to be able to compare them.

I''m just at LOGR site and looks for settings for you, TL.

I know how you like halos, what do you think about this??

 

[mochi]

This one is unusual...

That''s gorgeous Mochi, but if I customize it for my stone, it will probably be way up there in $$$. Thanks for suggesting it though!

 

[mochi]

It''s sad that there isn''t too many trilliion ring settings..

 

[T L]

There''s some, but most of them would have to be customized.

I know lan.b04 makes some as well.

Awesome color, TL.

A lot of personality in that stone.

That''s a gorgeous stone TL! It''s very unfortunate that trillion settings are so hard to come by.
