First of all - I got my Ritani wedding bands! I am so glad I got 2, I love the look of them together with my e-ring. Here are some pics.


Stats: wedding bands: .24 carats each, full eternity, size 4, in Palladium (which I HIGHLY recommend. I CAN''T tell the difference between the palladium and my platinum e-ring in color or weight for that matter. It might be because the bands are mostly diamonds adding weight to the metal.


Ering - 1.56 carats, J color, VS2, Ideal H&A, size 4 in platinum, .23 carats of diamonds on the band.

That is so beautiful! Is your e-ring Ritani too? I ask because I love this look and have been wanting something like it...

Great taste! :D Your bands complement your ring so well.
 
I love your set, and that you went for the 2 eternity bands! Looks so beautoful and symmetrical!

hahaha - don't be silly! i totally copied another girl's ring off of this website so be my guest! when i first became interested in pave settings and googled some - pricescope pics of this ritani set came up and i fell in love! to my surprise my FI spoiled me and got my my dream ring :)

i highly recommend ritani... you can save a few bucks by getting palladium instead of platinum too.
 
:D Some girls don''t like to be imitated. But Coco Chanel always said that she didn''t mind being knocked off -- it made her feel relevant!

The palladium is a great suggestion. The metals look beautiful together. It''s hard to find palladium in B&M stores to try -- did you see the palladium first or did you go for it based on what you know?

I didn''t get to try it in the store first so it was kind of risky - but honestly I can''t tell the difference at ALL between my platinum e-ring and my palladium bands. I think it''s less noticeable bcs of all the diamonds. There is hardly any metal showing anyway. I trust that if Ritani is using palladium then they are using the best of the best. I should warn you though my e-ring is thicker (like higher) than my wedding bands. I was expecting them to be the same height but they aren''t and I am still getting used to the look.

- there are some comparison pics I took of palladium vs platinum vs white gold in this thread https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/geckodanie-how-are-you-liking-the-palladium.98308/ I''ve got it too and LOVE it.
 
Your e-ring looks great with two bands! And your topaz ring is soooo pretty!
 
Wow!!! That color on that topaz is so vibrant! It almost seems to glow!!!

Your wedding set is also lovely, I love the double band look!!

Your Ritani set is beautiful! The RHR is very pretty, too!
 
The bands are beautiful- so dainty! I love them just paired and stacked too. And fun blue topaz RHR! Colored stones make such great halo rings.

I can see the difference in height, but it doesn''t bother me. I thought it was intentional! The set looks very pretty just the way it is.

i have the princess cut version of your ring... ritani is amazing right!?!! i had my eye on it for years, finally getting it was a dream come true. i hope to get the matching w- band. i love the look of 2, and stacked *swooooooons*
what i love about this setting is how the diamond sits closer to the finger, compared to other settings its easier to wear

is [the w-band] flush or the same height, the whole way around, except for where the diamond is, adding a bit more height [only on the e-ring] when you look at the profile, where as the w-band stays the same all the way around? or is the w-band thinner the whole way around?
hmmm, i dont know how to word what im trying to say,

i will say tho... you have GREAT taste!!! i love your rings.

Hi Trishy,

I get what you are asking. The E-ring is thinner (lower) at the back and gets higher as it gets closer to the diamond. The W-band on the other hand, is low all the way around. That is why the E-ring looks higher from the front view. From the back, they all look perfectly equal in width and height. From the front, the look equal in width but the E-ring starts to go higher as it approaches the diamond. I was just checking out the ritani website though and it appears they have two different style #''s for the wedding band, and the pic looks identical, so I am starting to wonder if there is a height difference between the two.

Check it out:

The one I got: http://www.ritani.com/products/view/926/in_category/18

The other: http://www.ritani.com/products/view/847/in_category/16

I have no clue what the difference is.... I hope I ordered the right ones! Dope!!!! Oh wells, I love them anyway :)
 
Oh how utterly gorgeous!!

..and you have such lovely hands!!
 
How pretty! The set really looks complete with two bands. Your new RHR is lovely too--love that bright blue.
 
The rings look like they were made for your ering. Gorgeous

Love your bands, and your topaz ring!

Thanks everyone!

I took this picture for Trishy to show you how the thickness differs on the three rings:

I love your set...all three rings are just lovely together!
And that blue topaz is gorgeous!

Gorgeous set, I love the look of the two thin bands! This has always been one of my favorite sets. Your somefing else is gorgeous too, what a beautiful blue color!
 
Ohhh that is a gorgeous wedding set! If I didn''t have chubby short fingers I would have three bands too - I just love that look.
 
Your set is beautiful! I recently decided to reset my diamond into the same setting (Ritani classic - no halo.) I ordered the setting and matching band (with sizing bar) through Pearlman''s. It should be done any day and I just can''t wait! I have to say, seeing your set, I think the extra wedding band really adds something special. In addition to the extra bling, you have many combination options. I''ll have to start hinting to my husband for our next big anniversary. (The reset was for my 40th birthday.)

Congratulations. Wear your beautiful rings in good health!
 
Those bands are beautiful!!!! love them with your ering :) And i LOVE LOVE LOVE the halo ring too!

Happy birthday! I love my ritani ring and I am very happy with the quality. Please let me know if the wedding band you ordered ends up being lower than your e-ring like mine. I just want to make sure I ordered the right bands (not that there is much I can do about it at this point!).
