I prefer the ones with the silver base as I fancy it might reflect light 
back into the gem. So for a round cut stone I prefer A and C for a 
square cut stone.
Then I remembered my wife has a ring with a similar setting.

So I took a couple of photographs with my old camera.

I'll post them in OT so they will disappear in a fortnight.
