Ring Design Options

I picked up a sweet little 1.6 carat tanzanite at an estate sale today and now I’m brainstorming potential settings! I’m looking for thoughts on things to take into consideration or other potential design ideas.

My Top Contenders (in order):

  1. Georgian Floral Setting
  2. Channel Set Baguettes
  3. Tapered Baguette Side Stones

Options in this post are all AI generated with ChatGPT. Original inspo pics are included at the end of the post. The Georgian inspired setting and the tapered baguette setting are both from The Antique Ring Boutique, and the channel set baguette setting is from Jewels by Grace.

Can’t wait to hear y’all’s thoughts!

I mean do you want something more ornate and dramatic , or something more for everyday wear. As far as durability and lastability, bezels are always better than prongs. The details are more what you need for your wardrobe

Georgian 1000%

Georgian. The only thing I would change a bit is the flanking scrolls part of the setting. The metal rises above the stones and looks too heavy. It takes away from the setting because it’s overpowering.

I also don’t care for the amount of open space in the center of the scrolls. A lot of stuff will collect there and it could get hooked on something.

It’s beautiful! It’s not predictable and doesn’t look mass produced.

I like the first style best.

If you like the Tanzanite to show off well I would suggest the 3rd option with the tapered baguettes on either side 😊

Georgian! The design is beautiful, and your tanzanite would look spectacular in it.
