Anyone bored and want to help me shop?

[lavatea]

Hey all,

I'm beginning to dream for my anniversary present. Several years ago I had dreamed of a 5 stone pink sapphire band set by Brian Gavin Designs, but hahahaha! we are no near that station in life just yet. But I do still want something.

What I'd like is a band I can stack with my wedding set. Eventually I would love to own quite a few stackers and switch them out from time to time. I can probably fit 3 smallish bands on my finger along with my wedding set.

I've found a few plain metal ones I'll consider, but I'm hoping you guys can help me find something with colored gemstones, diamonds, or both.

parameters:
**untreated stones of decent quality
** band width <3 mm
**any color gold is fine but want an alloy that doesn't have to be dipped if it's white (so like a palladium white gold type deal), I'd consider other metals but figure they're probably out of my price range
**etsy vendor or a commercial vendor is fine - I'm not picky as long as quality is good
**$300 or less budget

Like I said, I'm dreaming. But I've got until June to window shop. I'd be forever grateful if you guys helped.

I've seen stackers that fit your criteria over at Rosadosbox on Etsy, if you get them in rose or yellow gold. I've read, however, some mixed reviews online (I think Yelp) regarding returns.

Ok, so I don't know if these are sold, because some of them are probably kind of old, and people don't seem to remember to delete/mark them as sold, so I figured I'd give secondhand a try.

I don't know what size you are, but here is what's on LoupeTroop and DiamondBistro for the moment...

Slightly over budget at $400, and 3.3mm

I like those, especially the channel set sapphires. The way she has it stacked with the other rings in the one picture is gorgeous!

I guess I should have mentioned ring size. I need a 5 1/2 or 5 3/4. I think a 6 would be too big, but maybe just barely.

I've found a few interesting rings on Marlaine Harris and also from Gabriel & Co. Man, I wish I could afford a Van Craeynest.

Wow! I like some of the styles at Rosadosbox. I'll check out the reviews. Thanks for mentioning them. I like to find etsy sellers, but there are SO many that it's hard.

So it's quite a bit over the budget, but I really like this: https://www.etsy.com/listing/163963...are&utm_medium=PageTools&utm_source=Pinterest.

What do you think about gold color? I'm leaning toward yellow or rose. Which would compliment the stones better? Also, milgraining or no?

I had to go look at it based on the name alone - after all, who doesn't like bubbles?

I personally love milgraining, and adore the look of green tsavs in white metal. But that's me.

 

[FrekeChild]

I would do white, but that's a personal preference.

How about this eternity band with blue zircon and rose gold from Yvonne Raley?

https://www.etsy.com/listing/156037500/eternity-band-in-14kt-rose-gold-with?ref=shop_home_active_2

It's exactly $300.

The tsav ring is So pretty! I like it in wg too. Maybe it would be a little less in your smaller ring size? Otherwise, it's only a little more to cough up if you could manage it. I wouldn't mind looking at that on my own finger!
