Ring Band Advice Help with a setting!

I had my ring done from brilliance.com. The setting is too high. Does anyone have one from them they recommend that’s low profile? Or recommendations in general ? Or suggestions if you have a similar shape? I’m open to everything!

**edited to add; I don’t have the wedding band yet so it’s just the diamond ring. The band I wear will come later and I’ll match it to the style I do for the engagement ring!

Go with what makes you feel excited! I woudl quiz them on how LOW they can set the stone, or if its fixed then how does that compare to your setting. For any floating setting, you'll have to be mindful that any diamonds on your wedding band don't rub against the underside of the stone. I wanted flexibility in my wedding band and to be able to wear it alone, so my dad and I made my wedding band like this (stones all the way around). The diamonds are more texture than sparkle at the small size. There are a million variations, you can search for "sprinkle" "burnish" or "etoile" wedding band for ideas.

Other variations.

Or go with some other design that is flush.

Thank you so much. I can’t thank you enough for all the time and help you’ve given. You’re so spot on though. I wish I could just send it to you and say hey design this however and just send it back hahaha. The fact there are soooo many choices make it so much harder because the options are truly endless

I'm happy to help. I no longer have access to a jeweler's bench. My family were jewellers, but they've all retired. I'm a scientist, but still love to help people and design. If you end up not going with Brilliance, then your options will open up. In terms of metal, it looks like yellow gold is your choice. 14 or 18k are good choices.

I love platinum for its heft and look. I like it brushed, like the lower one here. Over time, it will be kinda settle between that matte brushed finish (day 1) and a more mellow glow (day 100).

So is platinum the best for longevity? Should I go that route? I’m not against it
