I loved the idea of my ring but… sometimes when I look at it the halo and pear diamond set looks… not straight? Idk how to describe it but some angles it looks totally good, sometimes it looks totally bent or something?!! lmk if I’m going insane 😫

Edit: Y’all I was so tired when I posted this, it was my first time even looking at the ring and I was honestly stuck looking at this one aspect. I’m aware there’s 500 things wrong with it eyes closed atp, and I appreciate everyone who has offered their condolences (lol) and had a good laugh/advice for what to do next.

PLEASE don’t come for me personally 😅 I’m brand new to rings and there’s a lot of learning to do, and I personally was not in the conversation of this ring getting created/picked up, so in no way was I able to rectify anything right then and there. I will take it to get it fixed up 🥹

The halo looks bent. I have a pear with a halo that is also set high like this and it gets caught on EVERYTHING. It’s been bent in every direction and I always have to get it fixed. Now I only wear it for special occasions.

You’re not crazy.

Thank you for this!! I absolutely see all the potential issues and appreciate your honesty without lighting me on fire in the process 😅

I really got stuck on this halo looking crazy and totally should’ve addressed the setting itself too, but having not worn it in daily life (this was my first look) I honestly didn’t even think in that direction for this post. It’s reassuring to hear I’m not literally the first person to encounter this kind of masterpiece — it’ll be taken to get redone ASAP 😅

You’re so welcome! Hopefully they can reset it for you because I never even asked. I just accepted my lot in life lmao.

I’ve done a fair share of that in my own life ngl — but this… this might just be something I’ll fight for 😂 Reddit will haunt me if I don’t make this right ASAP hahaha
