So, my initial thoughts on this ring.
Wow, the stones are pretty big. I was actually surprised as there is no metal showing at all, so I am happy I went with the 35 pointers and not smaller diamonds. I always thought .25 to 30 pointers were a good size for my fingers, but I am glad I went with slightly larger diamonds as it does have a nicer effect.
I would not hesitate to get an I colored stone again. For reference, the tiffany shared prong has G/H color diamonds. I do notice a slight slight difference in color, but the stones are bigger and I think the BGDs pick up color from around the house and my clothes.
The metal is surprisingly thick, which I like. I don''t like it when the bottom of the band tapers off and thins out. I would say it is about 2mm. thick on the bottom and where the metal curves up to meet the top diamonds, about 3 mm.
I really like the curve where the band hits the diamonds. I am happy I picked this style over the other trellis style on the BGD website. It reminds a lot of Demelza''s 5 stone ring, but with thicker metal metal, again, which I love.
