I had my stone set yesterday and unfortunately my stone (J color I think) looks extremely yellow next to the colorless stones on the halo. I am someone who really likes warmth, but the contrast of the stones does not look flattering. For sentimental reasons I do not want to part with my centerstone so I contacted my jeweler to discuss options and we came to a resolution.
My jeweler is sending my current ring back to Simon G Jewelry to have my stone removed and put in a new setting that has yellow gold and yellow diamonds on the halo which should improve the overall appearance of my stone.
I am disappointed and I think that's normal. I am sure when it comes back in two weeks the contrast between my stone and the yellow diamonds will look much more flattering together and I will fall in love again! The yellow gold version was, afterall, my first choice so I know that I will love it. It just sucks, because I've already become attached to this setting.

I can't wait to see pictures! I think your going to love it so much more and forget about this setting in no time.
I wish I had a RB so I could get this setting (all white or yg/white)! I've already showed it to my Husband and said I want this!! I have a pear so I'd have to get the setting and center stone (not going to happen!).
Sorry it didn't work out the first time for you but like I said I think you'll love it so much more!!

Thanks for the response! You're absolutely right, I am sure once I get it back I will totally forget about the rose gold! I compared my stone to some of their yellow diamonds when I went to drop it off on my lunchbreak and I think it will look much nicer! Now time to play the waiting game... 2 weeks!
Oh, I just had an metal image of the same ring but with a pear stone/halo! Wow that would be something else!
I always wanted a pear stone, but my hubby doesn't really like "points" (pear, princess, marquise) so we compromised on round hehe!

Ahhhh...the waiting ~ I always feel like time flies by EXCEPT for when I'm waiting for something I really want. That ring is DEFINITELY worth the wait. Please post pictures when you get it.
My pear was my MIL's, and as much as I love it I wish I had a round. Round is just so classic, I've always loved them. My husband knows he will be buying me one......eventually.
I made a post s few weeks ago about my upgrade Simon G wedding ring. My husband surprised me with the lovely rose and white gold version, but I had them make me the yellow and white gold version instead. It just arrived on Thursday and it is absolutely DREAMY! I cannot keep my eyes off it! Here are a couple of photos. Thanks for looking!
