Share ur RB halo w/ side stones? Side view & finger view?

[mossie86]

Hi guys, this is my first time posting on PS after much lurking around so please be kind!

I am so excited to be designing my e-ring with my finance to be. I was planning to get the diamond sourced from online store after many many good reviews on PS, however, the total money I will be paying after it arrives Australia + customized halo ring will be similar price to getting it done locally.

And I need inspiration/help!!!

I haven't been able to successfully search for halo setting with side stones, preferably pink sapphires - side view and finger view.

Does anyone have photos to share? Especially the side views (as I am confused on what I should get!) And finger view is important!

Also, another question - apparently I have "carrot fingers" so the base of my hand looks fatter than the tip. I thought I was a 7.5 but according to online ring sizer, I am actually an 8-8.5.

Do you guys think a 1.15ct RB centre with halo setting and side stones will look good? Will 1ct centre stone be much different?

If you guys can share your photos, that would be excellent!!!

Thank you!!!

Ahhh I don't know if I can edit my first post or the title.

So basically my other question is that I was wondering if there is much difference between 1ct or 1.15ct in a halo setting?

Our budget is around $10000 for the ring which includes the pink sapphire side stones.

I was planning 1.15ct, g, si1, triple ex centre stone. Do you guys think F colour will make much difference? Or do you guys have other recommendations which will be better value or money to give me a good finger coverage at the lowest cost?

Thank you!!!

so you want a three stone with halos around each of the stones?
heres one i really love
http://www.pearlmansjewelers.com/jewelry-designers/ritani-jewelry/rings/11QQ1/

i think it would have a ridiculous amount of finer coverage, even if its for a size 8.

I dont think they make this particular setting anymore, they have been doing some rebranding and i think they got rid of there "endless love" (though i am sad the bezels were just too fantastic)

but engagement rings direct makes rings similar to the classic ritani endless love, i think they could probably make you one, but i have a feeling youd only be left with about 5 k for the center (USD)

HI:

Welcome.

Have you tried on any rings, IRL? Single, double halo's...side stone of differnet shapes and colors..with/w/o halos's.... Have you seen the profile/combo's of stones that appeal to you? I suggest this as a first step. At the very least, it can narrow your choices since these combinations/variables are difficult to imagine from a picture. Nuances are everything.

Should you be out and about looking at rings, have a jeweller size your finger--use differnt band sizes for width. It is important!

cheers--Sharon

Thanks for sharing! I like the link you sent but I dont think I want my side stones to be that big compared to the centre stone - don't want them to take the thunder!

there are no price tags on EDR settings but you're right, it is too expensive

Thank you! I've tried on solitaires but the 1ct looks quite small on my finger..

do you think thinner bands will make the diamond look bigger?

I think the pink halo is so cute but I haven't seen any pics of anyone wearing it - https://www.artofplatinum.com/vault/round-halo-pink-diamonds

I really like this one, im sure they could replicate it for your budget with sapphires they are good with side stones

i know its not round but it would provide more finger coverage and more crw for the budget.

look around at there sold rings, they might have something for you
