Bridget Durnell tapered platinum ring

[paige03]

I've been lurking for awhile, so it's only right to post another Bridget Durnell ring--a designer PS'ers seem newly interested in. I have a small hand and wanted a stand-alone wedding ring. Do you guys think this needs a band?

The center stone is a 1.01 carat round brilliant cut diamond. E color, SI2 clarity. The bezel set sapphires in the profile gallery are vivid blue color. It looks like the center stone is bezel set, but it's actually secured by 4 claw prongs. Metal is platinum. It's a size 4...

I dont think it needs a band. You must have the tinyest fingers but that 1 carat looks hugh on you. The setting
is definitly substantial enough to stand along. I love the profile view!

Wow, that''s a very lovely ring! I think it stands quite well on its own! I especially like the diamonds on the sides. Very pretty and very unique!

 

[D&T]

I agree with the others, its an amazing looking ring on its own.. Gorgeous.

does not need a band

 

[geckodani]

Love the diamonds and the surprise sapphires! I think it''s perfectly substantial on its own!

 

[TravelingGal]

Very cool ring that can stand on its own!

 

[Burk]

Gorgeous and unique ring! Love it!!

 

[oranges]

that ring is definitely substantial enough on your hand to stand alone! I can''t believe how big that 1 carat stone looks on you! It''s beautiful.

 

[akmiss]

WOW! The ring looks perfect on you! I am wishing my finger was a size four now!

 

[motownmama]

really nice ring!!!!

 

[diamondseeker2006]

Beautiful! It definitely works as a standalone ring!

 

[MMT]

Gorgeous ring, it can definitely stand on its own. I would hate to cover up that profile with a band. It sure does look big on your hand. Just gorgeous, I love it

 

[KtIceRN]

Cool design! Very pretty.

 

[mrssalvo]

very cool ring and I agree that it''s perfect as a stand alone!

 

[me&myboys]

i think your ring can carry it''s own alone, too. also...it will mean that you won''t be hiding that beautiful profile!!!!

 

[musey]

GORGEOUS setting and stone! Just beautiful!

If you *really* wanted to put a band with it I think it would pair up beautifully, but I agree that it doesn''t *need* it. Completely up to you, of course

I am so loving Bridget Durnell''s settings!! That is one gorgeous ring, and I love how substantial it is. I definitely don''t think it needs a band--in fact I think that would detract from the coolness of the design, especially those diamonds along the side.

 

[paige03]

Thanks. I keep hoping I chose the right setting. My previous setting had two pear-shaped sapphires flanking the center stone. It was more delicate, and I wore it with a band. Isn''t it hard to choose when there are so many pretty possibilities?

 

[Tuckins1]

Wow. Just wow. I definitely think that ring can stand on her own!!!

 

[coatimundi_org]

Great ring! I love the bezel with the prongs. Very cool ring.

 

[icekid]

Very cool setting! love it

 

[Diamond*Dana]

I think that it is just beautiful all on it''s own!

 

[Stone Hunter]

It does stand on it''s own. It''s a lovely ring.

 

[lulu]

That is one gorgeous ring. I t definitely doesn''t need anything else.

paige -

beautiful ring! love the placement of the sapphire; sometimes those little ''surprise stones'' aren''t set completely flush and can stick out. you''re is beautifully placed. love the halo also and the side-set diamonds are gorgeous.

great ring.

 

[Viola]

Very pretty and unique design! I agree with the rest, it looks great as a stand alone ring, a band would cover the beautiful pavé on the sides..

 

[Italiahaircolor]

What a very cool ring! I think it can totally stand alone...or with a very thin, simple pave band.

 

[Rose-E]

That''s a very amazing and unique ring. It can definitely stand alone. Who would want to cover up those diamonds and the surprise sapphire on the profile?

 

[Sundial]

Gosh your ring is absolutely stunning and pretty from every angle! As others have stated, adding a band would only detract from its beauty. It is hard to choose a ring with so many options out there, but you have something very special there that will stand the test of time.

 

[gemgirl]

It''s unique and different and a definite stand alone piece.
