Thanks everyone. The CZ is a really good stone. I was worried the Asha would look the same as it. It's a H&A cut and I've had compliments on it. No one has questioned whether it was real or not.

However, put it next to the Asha and there really is a difference which means they can't be worn together! LOL I think I may put it up for sale though. As much as I love the setting and the stone, it's just too big for me. I can't wear a 6.5mm rock. I was waiting for shrinkage to set in but it never did.

I still can't get over how diamond-like the Asha is. I can only imagine how the Amora gem will look.

Thanks DG. I'm really pleased with how well they fit together. I love the low profile of the Celeste setting and yet it's high enough to clear the band so they sit snug. Like they were made for each other. smile

Here's another comparison photo.

do you mean how tall off the finger the shank is, how tall the stone is or how wide the shank is?

the stone height and shank width will vary with the stone size.

Sorry about not being precise about my question.

Would like to know how thick the width of band is..
I'm looking for a design that have a lower shank in general and i'm hoping Celeste is one of them...
