Thank you to everyone for your opinions!
It seems as though it''s a tie. 10 for the leaves, and 10 for the bow.

Although I do love both rings very much I''ve settled on....
drumrolll pleeeaassseee....

the bow!

Reasons:
1. As people said, the bow''s design is much more visible and clear than the leaf ring.
2. I definitely won''t see a bunch of people wearing this ring, or anything too similar to it. I''ve seen the leaf ring in many versions already.
3. It reminds me of my style icon Carrie from sex and the city.
4. It''s slightly cheaper than the leaf ring.
5. I like the whimsical feel of the ring... I know it''s impractical and will probably catch on things... but I feel like jewelry is inherently frivolous so why be practical... ::throws my practicality into the wind::

6. I like that it''s large enough to be a conversation piece. If I''m spending money on it, I''d like people to notice

Now all I have to do is talk the guy down to $500 instead of $570, I hope their feeling the holiday spirit hehe.
I get my response on Monday.
As soon as it is delivered I will take some pictures to show you guys.

Thanks again everyone, I love the PS forum family

Talked the guy down to $500... but he said it''ll cost me to size the ring... those diamond district people they always try to nickel and dime you one way or the other

I will post pics as soon as I get it on my finger... now if only i had a camera that''d take decent pictures.
