#JOTW My 3.55 OEC in ERD RG/WG solitaire

[valmanin]

That band is absolutely perfect with your stunning solitaire! There is just something special about those Tiffany wedding bands and I think it is totally worth the spurge.

I totally agree, Sundial! I'm not sure why it took me so long!!!

Gah, drooling here...your set is stunning! I love the addition of the band! Your set is sheer perfection! Well done to your DH! Congratulations!

Thank you so much!!! Yeah, I'm gonna keep him!

Valmanin, your gorgeous OEC in it's stunning setting is one of my favorites on PS. I poured over your pics when I was deciding what to do with my stone. Now, with that beautiful Metro band, you have a perfect set! I didn't think your solitaire could be more beautiful, but somehow the band enhances it's beauty!! WOW!!!!

Are you kidding me?!?! Your new set is...just bravo!!! First, I have coveted that exact AVR since another PSer had it. The mystique of the brown/pink modifier! Then the setting!!! I LOVE the matte finish. Congrats!

 

[valmanin]

WOW STUNNING is the only word I can think of! and you have such a good taste picking the setting and the stacking rings! beautiful beautiful beautiful!

do you mind sharing where you got the shared prong (single prong) stacking ring? it is the middle ring in the 21st pic on page 1. it is so delicate and it is exactly what i am looking for for a while!

i would really appreciate it if you would share on that band!

You know what? Those were just stackers I was trying on at a local jewelry store. I want to say it was a Michael B shared prong in WG. Sorry I don't have more info!

 

[valmanin]

Wow! Your new band is the perfect soulmate for your e-ring! And major points to your sweet man for making it happen. (ps - not sure if you know this but I did end up having Mark make me a platinum version of your ring later in 2014...I adore it. It's the baby sister version of yours! I'll always be grateful to you for this design!)

Yes! I have seen yours and it's stunning in platinum!!! I'm so glad you are loving it. What band do you wear with yours? The shank is so think, I found it challenging!

 

[valmanin]

I am happy you have a band that you now love!!! I just wanted to say that I adore your ring! The basket is to die for!!!! I am embarrassed to say that I have this thread saved on my phone so I easily pull it up and drool over your ring!!!

Thank you so much!!! And, I am right there with you. My phone has way too many saved jewelry inspiration pics...so embarrassing when you are scrolling through with someone looking for kid pictures!

Thank you so much for the information. I have to admit...i keep coming back and drool on your rock...

The Metro band is seriously the most perfectly delicate band to match your stunning, to-die-for flawless solitaire. They're perfect together.

Oh My Goodness!!!! This is what I get for not being on PS in so long. I absolutely love the combo!!! The proportions are just right and your solitaire is still the stuff of dreams! One Day!

Ok...think I fixed the rotation problem...

I finally got a band that truly goes with my solitaire. It only took 2 years! In truth, I have known that the Tiffany Metro in RG was THE band for my ring, but for some reason I couldn't justify spending the money on it so I searched and searched. Nothing. Fortunately, my husband put me out of my misery this Christmas and there was a little blue box under the tree! It's the perfect match and I'm thrilled that my set finally feels complete!

As usual, here are 800 pictures to document the band.

Valmamin -

I come back to look at your gorgeous ring often. Love your new Metro band! One of the most perfect combos on PS in my opinion.

Lucky girl!

 

[luv2sparkles]

Oh my, your ring is gorgeous! Love the two tone setting combo.

Hey there!

I have been holding out on posting this because I plan to get the head rhodium plated, but it seems like I am having trouble parting with the ring long enough to do that. I can't contain it anymore!!! I must share. Without going into too much detail, I will say this ring was a slow burn...not love at first sight. I am so glad I stuck it out, though, because I REALLY love it now! It took me finding some bands that I loved with it (not the twisty one I am wearing in pics) to see the amazing potential of this solitaire which was executed perfectly by ERD. The setting is so delicate and with the RG shank you really get that "diamond floating on the finger" effect. Chris was outstanding to work with and as everyone knows ERD's customer service is impeccable!

The diamond...oh the diamond. Gah, I am just so in love with it!!! Adam truly went out of his way to find me this stone. He told me over and over that the right stone would appear...it only took 9 months or so.

Here is my link to the diamond...

For fun...a pic or her mysterious, dark side...


This is where the ring came to life for me...when I stacked it with some super thin eternities. This is a YG and a WG one...



Here it is the the Tiffany metro in RG...ugh TDF! Even the snobby salesperson at the store smiled and nodded when I put it on.

Stunning what finger size are you

Hi there! I am pretty sure that ring is a 5.5, but that was a long time ago!
