(Sorry about the title. I wasn''t around for the "icy white" fun but I read about it recently and couldn''t resist.

What fun!!!!!!!!!
 
The CAD. The end result was modified a little, but I like it just as much as the original CAD idea. Plus, it feels a bit more secure the way it is.

Next to my replacement wedding band (''nother story):

On a size 5.5 finger, a ~1.25 ctw gets the job done, I think.

Holy cow. That is - fantatsically perfect. Seriously. That just became my favorite five stone ring. Ever. It''s all swoopy trellis goodness. Wow.
 
A full hand shot. Please excuse my goofy, child-like hand.

A photo I took in my closet because the lighting makes the diamonds go CRAZY. Blurry to show the fire:

The two rings together (not sure if I like this yet...what do you think?)

Palm side. About 2.5mm.

Aaaaaaaand my final question. This is very important. Ring finger or middle finger? Ring would be the left hand, middle, the right. Either way, I have to get it sized down (for ring) or up (for middle) a half-size.

It's a bit off center on the middle finger. Sorry about that!

WOWZA!!!!
 
My experience with BGD: Great. Brian and Lesley were wonderful to work with (I spoke to both on the phone and through email), and although *very* busy, they got this ring out to me pretty quickly. I must have sent Lesley a million emails with questions and specifics, but she never once got impatient with me.

Thank you for viewing!

I am so in love with this ring EBree! I think I like it better on the middle finger, interestingly enough.

Beautiful Ring Ebree! I love the trellis look! I do like it on the middle finger, or else the right ring finger?
 
legra, Lorelei, and Kelli- Thank you all so much!

Skippy and SanDiegoLady- You're so sweet- thank you! One day I'll like the rings together, another not so much. I do like the contrast of the different metal 'shades' together. I've got to figure it out before I decide which finger the BGD's going to go on.

gecko- Thank you, love! I'm liking it a bit better on the middle, too, but I think it's because it fits better there. I ordered a size 6, which I thought I always was, but I should have listened to the jewelers who measured me at a 5.5 recently. I like my rings a little loose, but I think this one would look better fitted.

D&T- Thank you! In the comparison photos, the ring is pictured on the left ring finger (left photo) and the middle finger on the right hand (right photo). Does this change your mind?
 
What a STUNNER!!! That profile is just beyond lovely.

I''d vote ring finger, makes the diamonds look larger after all

Favourite design ever! Once day when I get my own 5 stone, that will be the design!

Well will you want to wear it everyday? I personally like the idea of having the blng on the ring finger, it is a classy and timeless look. But I don''t like to wear RHRs...
 
Okay, assuming it was sized correctly, it still looks like the diamonds spread across your finger better on the middle finger, whereas it looks to me like you might have some diamond overhang with the ring finger? Or is that just that it''s too big?
 
Wow, gorgeous prong work and icy white yumminess.
