This seems a lot like SanDiego Lady''s recent thread, but my boyfriend and I have been talking about maybe doing a simiple eternity band instead of a traditional e-ring until we save a bit more money... thoughts?

YES, we are all over the map, being entirely indecisive and silly, but hey, we''re having fun with it too, so who cares?

Below is #1 - Natural Sapphire Company

I''ll post pictures of the other 2 in a second.

Thanks, Aussiegirl : p

I know scaasi and natural are great companies. I don't know about the masterpiece. Based on that - I would go with NSC.

It appears to get close to a 2.8tcw in the scaasi you are going to pay alot more than NSC.

The Natural ring you post is this item

But I prefer this alternate from them. It is untreated.

But this is all from photos and basic information. You do need to see them.

I like the unheated one that Bertrand posted the link too as well.

Hello all - thanks for the advice -- I went ahead and asked Steven Bliss at Natural Sapphire Company to send out the sapphire eternity band for inspection. Incredibly easy process, great customer service, and I was generally impressed.

Here''s my one concern. I love the square/ascher type eternity bands because there are none of the gaps you sometimes see in the RB eternity bands. Even with the well-crafted RB eternity bands, the extra space bugs me. But, you couldn''t have an eternity band like the ones I posted made to fit flush with an e-ring, could you? The square shape allows you to have all the stones line up exactly and create one fluid line of color... you would get strange gaping if you tried to taper it to fit flush, no?

Does anyone have a non-RB eternity band made to fit flush with an e-ring?

Otherwise, the ring is GORGEOUS : )

Thanks,

Aussiegirl : p

Cool, let us know when you get it!

hm... I like the saphs in the first two but I like the thinner channel part on the 3rd... does that help or no?!! hehe .

 

[aussiegirl23]

Yeah, I''ve decided my boyfriend is no help either : )

He looked at them and said "well, they''re all blue." Can you see why I was glad he decided to include me?

Also, it makes me laugh that he''s accused me of doing 180''s overnight about decisions... He''s been up and down and sideways in the past few weeks about what to do about an e-ring based on finances (3 stone ring or eternity band, or something else). We''re talking about it, and honestly, I''m just happy he''s TALKING about it, let alone, actually going to ACT on all these conversations...

So I''m looking in a few different directions to give the boy options. Anyway, looking at them all is FUN!
