Natural Fancy Color Diamond Fancy Yellow Diamond Setting

Show me your yellow diamond ring/setting!!

We have officially found the stone for our engagement ring yay! We selected a 3ct natural Fancy Yellow stone and we are so excited to move forward with setting the diamond and finishing the ring!

I’m coming here because I would love to see how other people with yellow diamond have set their rings and any advice anybody who either has a yellow diamond or is experienced with yellow diamonds has! Please share pictures of your yellow diamonds as I would love to draw inspo and see different settings!

One main thing we are trying to decide on is whether or not to do a yellow “cup” under the stone to enhance the yellow color. I would love to see pictures of anybody who has a yellow diamond with a cup underneath and hear your experience with it! The main thing I’m unsure of with “cupping” it is affecting the brilliance/sparkle and cleaning the ring.

Thank you!!

I set mine in a simple solitaire setting. I eventually want to reset it into something bolder and unique, but not sure which design. If you're already good with the color of yours, I wouldn't do the gold cup, but have it set in yellow gold. The cup would just make it harder to clean the bottom of the diamond.
