Nice design idea guys but the centre stone diamond needs to be a larger diameter.
That size diamond is lost in between the butterflies.
It would improve the whole balance.
Neat,clean and well made.
Good photo of the centre stone diamond shows the sharpness of the lower pavillion facets and excellent optical symmetry.
Good work. I like.
You could develop this concept with coloured shoulder stones too
Be well,
DK

Daniel;
Thanks very much for the kind words.
I agree that this setting would visually benefit with a larger center diamond, however, this center diamond seen in the photo was chosen by our Customer who ordered this setting, not us.
Colored stones for the centerpiece is a good idea and we have already manufactured a similar ring with a center blue sapphire that looks outstanding.

Hello! This is a beautiful ring! My aunt is obsessed with butterflies and she is probably going to get engaged soon. I am trying to help her boyfriend look for a ring. His budget is probably going to be less than $100. Any ideas? She likes smaller rings, more dainty. Even if it's butterflies that are done in filigree work with a small diamond in center. Thanks for your help.

Barry,
I am interested in the pricing for the butterfly with sapphire stone in the middle. Are you still around or is this a dead post?
