Can you PM me the site? Thanks  That would be stunning! Do you know if MoissCo can still order them? I had David Klass qhote the Single Stone one for me too!! Now that I discovered rose cuts, I'm really excited. I'm thinking of incorporating some into the design, like in the middle of the "flower" looking design on the side of the shank. The Single Stone is my FH's favorite as well. This one may just be in my future! I hope they do! If not, I found another site that sells them. No idea if they are reputable or not though.

Question about these rose/rosette cut stones: what kind of setting works for them? I'm hearing they should be bezel or semi-bezel set. But then I see these gorgeous rings and earrings as above and here and it looks like they do perfectly fine in prongs, too.

I wish they had another video or some pics that are in focus. ETA: I'm failing...there are quite a few pics that are great and in focus!! I don't know why I didn't see them at first. Whoops!!

Yes, I'm not planning on buying those earrings. (Would rather find a ring of some sort so I can enjoy seeing the sparklies myself!) But eBay is definitely very unkind to my wallet!!!

i think... if you think about them more like an opal, or a cabochon, and how you would set one of those... then it makes more sense.
like, i don't think you can really replace a faceted stone with one of those, without some possibly extensive prongwork. and vice-versa.
but if the setting is designed for such a stone, or has never had a stone set in it, then it should work out with no real problem for the most part.
i *think*. Hmmmm... makes sense. I guess up until seeing the above ring with prongs, and seeing those earrings, I'd only seen this cut in bezels. But seeing them in prongs opened up a whole new world of possibilities. I think the jeweler I go to could make something work even if I bought a prong setting for a rosette stone someday. I'm specifically thinking of one of those antique/Edwardian settings that might give the stone a little bit of lip around the bottom to rest on below the prongs. Anyone else who thinks this is crazy and definitely won't work, though, please correct me!
