ITA. I also don't love the sapphires. But OP, if you love it, go for it!

I had a hard time deciding whether I liked it. The square setting, I like. The filigree, I like. The blue stones, I'm just not sure about.

"I don't hate it, but it kinda looks like the female genitals to me when you look at it."

??? What part of it? Dang, I wished my lady bidnit looked like that, it would have saved my husband tens of thousands.

No, sorry OP I don't like it either but my opinion doesn't really matter! I am not a fan of the sapphires on the side (and I love sapphires!) Whoa and I just noticed the side view with the curly stuff-- that just too much for me. It's just a little over done for my taste. But why do you care about my taste? What do you like about it?

OP here--what don't you like about it? Can you elaborate?

I think I'd like it without the blue stones...maybe if they were diamonds. Or even good CZ.

I like it but from my understanding of Fay Cullen, they have a very difficult return policy so choose carefully!

I don't see it. Why not just post the picture?

I love that site (got one of my wedding bands there) and think the setting is beautiful.

My diamond is just under one carat. I'd like to get it reset for our 10 year anniversary (from a plain tiffany setting).
I love antique/art deco settings.
