I guess I'm the minority but I really like the 3rd one for a right hand ring, looks the least engagement like to me and also easy to wear, nothing to snag and kinda all safe and secure.... Plus still shows off the stones beautifully!

I wondered about that as well- I think #2 also looks more like an ER. In addition with the cutwork diamond halo and esp if I went with a smaller micro pave it gives the least finger coverage of all 3 and I think for a RHR I want to make more of a statement. So although 2 seems to be the front runner in the poll here, I am leaning towards either 1 or 3. Number 1 is considerably more expensive than #3, but since I originally wanted a pink diamond ring (but couldn't afford a nice fancy pink diamond in the size I want) I think #1 shows more pink diamonds-ct weight around .53 fancy pink

I like #3 for a RHR. #1 is beautiful but it looks fancy, like a cocktail ring, for everyday. #2 looks like an ering. #3 looks like you can wear it everyday and I agree on the bezel not catching on clothes.

I'm with you; I like the 3rd the best myself. All are pretty, but the 3rd one caught my eye first when I looked at the pics.

Your stone is SO pretty! My hubby just bought me a yellow diamond too! We were searching for one more your color, gorgeously light and pretty but ended up with a brighter yellow. But i can't commit to a setting. Lol. Let me know how pleased you are with how yours turns out because i think i have to go custom too. I really love the third setting! I vote for that one. The first one is pretty and fun but i feel like the third one is so classy and elegant and much more timeless. The first one seems trendy to me and i prefer yellow diamonds in more timeless or antique settings. I can't wait to hear which one you choose and see how it turns out! I am so in love with yellow diamonds!

thank you - I love my stone,too!!
I will be happy to let you know how it turns out (as soon as I can decide which one I want!!) I do love that third setting,too-but I would do it with a milgrain edge to antique it a little more- and I might do prongs instead of the bezel on mine.

Another vote for number two. I'm sure whatever you choose will be gorgeous with the stone! My jeweler said you should have your prongs checked twice a year if you wear the ring a lot. I have had stones fall out and it's devastating, even with insurance!
