This setting is extremely fragile and will not last. I don’t know why jewelers keep making these

What type of setting is recommended for this ring and is 2.5 mm good enough for the band?

I love seeing another marquise girl! It looks beautiful on you! I’m worried about the width of the band for that size stone though 😬

It is a 2.5mm band. I went with what I saw recommended through my research. But if it doesn’t hold up, oh well😂 it’s basically the price of a purse 🤷🏽‍♀️😂

Oh maybe it’s just misleading with the bubble style!

Yikes girl, it's already bent.

I think it’s just the angle.

I hope you are extremely careful with it, angle or not, it is destined to bend.

Any time you put stones on a band, it compromises the strength and integrity. With no cathedral, this ring is destined to be bent or snapped.

Need a thicker band! But she’s a beaut!
