I wouldn't buy the setting elsewhere, I'd get it from the jeweler. Have you considered an artist who could custom design something for you? I"m lucky in that I have friends "in the business" and I use the jewelers they recommend. One I've used for 20 years and she does beautiful work.sweetvee said:Thanks for the advice.
I think I'm just paranoid, having heard a few horror stories. The thing is that it must be reset, the original gold is getting too thin to wear. We think that it is relatively valuable; it hasn't been appraised recently but it's 1.25 carats, flawless and color D. I'll probably take it to a small place but I want to buy the actual setting elsewhere, since it won't be cheap there. I just want to make sure to buy one that will fit the diamond...
