And rose gold and diamonds:
I really love this ring. It is flawless!blackberry16|1249347731|119271 said:As some of you know I just reset my original e-ring in a James Meyer setting. It took me five years to discover that bezel is my favorite setting and I now love looking at all the different bezels out there. Please post pictures of all the bezels you love.
I will start:
This is my 1.10 ct in a platinum James Meyer 1345.

I wanted one of my stones to be set in his setting, and he told me he does not work with costomer's stones. The same was written on his website. I really admire the setting, and I am not interested in diamonds. I've contacted his around 3 years ago, still hoping, but your original post is from 2009.

Left to right are: rustic rose cut diamond stacker,diamond stacker, diamond/sapphire stacker, garnet stacker, another diamond stacker with alternating bezels and marquise shapes, my Van C wedding band with teeeeny tiny little bezeled diamonds, and a filigree band with teeny tiny bezeled diamonds...there's one baguette/round one missing from the pic because I couldn't remember where I took it off....I think that concludes my bezeled stacking rings (for now...)
Did I mention I bezels?

I actually loved the original setting, but had always worried about the sidestones falling out due to how they were set. When I did finally lose a sidestone, I decided to reset into a bezel both because it is so secure and also because I love how bezels accentuate the shape of an asscher.
Stats (all stone were re-used)
Carat: 1.55
Cut: square emerald
Color: F
Clarity: VS2
Sidestones: 2 18-point pears (G color), 4 1-point round brilliants
Original setting in platinum from Shreve, Crump & Low
New setting in platinum by David Klass

My ring is a complete bezel, rub-over setting. I am wondering how you find the light performance of your centre diamond going from prongs to bezel. Have you noticed any less sparkle? I have always wondered if my diamond would perform better if it was not bezel set, as the sides are completely covered with metal at the moment... the only potential for sparkle is from the top of the diamond if that makes sense!
Hi,Ideally (ha!), the diamond's performance would not be affected by the setting. See the illustration below--in a well-cut diamond, all of the light comes in through crown or table, then bounces off of the pavilion and goes back out the crown or the table. If the pavilion is too shallow or too deep, then the light can't reflect correctly and you get leakage. So in a poorly-cut diamond with a lot of leakage, the bezel may exacerbate that. But in a diamond with little to no leakage, it won't affect the performance at all.
P.S.--bunnycat, thank you so much! That was very sweet!
