lovedogs said:Sorry to be late to this party (WHAT A RING!), but do you mind sharing how high your ring is? I am looking for something exactly like that (except with smaller stones). I adore the profile, the prongs, everything! I hope you are still loving it!
@lovedogs thank you so much! I just measured it "roughly". It's right around 4mm high. I think the profile and how low it sits on my finger is my favorite thing about it.
It was very important to me for it to be as low profile as possible because I love that look—and there's really nothing "special" about the setting so I wanted it to be as low and minimal metal showing for it to appear as being "just diamonds".
I'm guessing that the smaller the diamonds are, the lower it can be set naturally... Based on the depth of the diamonds.
I do still love it... I do however wish the diamonds were a bigger (but I still love it).
I think the lower profile it is, the smaller the diamonds actually appear... My best friend has the exact same size diamonds as mine, in hers, however, her ring is in the same setting but with thicker metal and hers appears to be much bigger than mine....
Here are two photos.
1. Measurement of mine.
2. Hers in contrast to mine... (Mine is on the bottom, hers is second from the top)
