Ok, I have two mabe rings in 14k gold with white pearls installed in them. I took my round SOC and placed it inside the back of the gallery and it fit. I took some needle nosed plyers and bent the prongs back and installed the SOC. I have had it on all day today.

All I can say is WOW! Yes, I drove the car and I live on top of a mountain with a narrow curvy road. The ring changed colors all the way down the road and I had to make myself stop looking at it. The style of the ring is an older style so It's no beauty but I did love wearing the ring in white, so now I really like it. I will keep it set like this and enjoy it for free until I get my other projects done, like the pendant.

I would LOVE pics!
I am hoping for a Mabe ring in the near future and this thread has reignited that desire something FIERCE!
