Another Bracelet Question

[day_lily_me]

I have this large bangle that I had made. It''s just plain, smooth 18K and I like it very much. But I was thinking that I would jazz it up some and at first thought I might try buying 2 pointers and putting in two very tiny rows of diamonds around each edge of the bracelet. That still may be an option but a very expensive one. I guess I wouldn''t be so concerned if the stones were bigger but I''d have just a lot of tiny ones although I''m sure I''d get plenty of sparkle. So while I was at the jeweler that was doing a repair for me today, I asked him what I could do to jazz up the bracelet that may not be so expensive. He suggested that that I pave a strip (the bracelet is 3/8" wide) in it. Then he suggested that I maybe do two or three pave strips in equal distances apart and then add more as I could afford it. I thought it sounded like a good idea to me. Has anybody ever seen a bangle like this or even remotely similar or know where I could look to get any ideas? Thanks.

A variation on the style can always be done... I did see somewhere online but could not find again a look-alike with clusters of three small diamonds accented by engraving. If you like the satin finish on gold, small diamonds look spectacular on it

Wow Ana. Where on earth and how on earth do you find ALL these gorgeous things? I do like the brushed gold look but was thinking more of some kind of pave in maybe a stretched ''x'' or even just a plain strip. It''s hard for me to have a bangle since I have a big bone that sticks out at the base of both thumbs so I have to have them made so that they will fit over that bone. I love it the way it is but just would like to jazz it up somehow. Before I found this site, I never even heard of any of these designers for e-rings. Now I find myself haunting PS all the time. I was like the rest of everybody waiting for Reena''s ring pics last night. FINALLY!!! Wasn''t that just too beautiful? I don''t think I''ve ever seen a prettier one.
