most of the rings that have been posted itt are ugly, imo
but, to each their own... if G.O.D. is happy with hers, what's the big deal? 6/18/2010 8:21:53 AM |

^^ that one is really neat... what kind of wedding band will go with that? 6/18/2010 9:31:50 AM |

^ the band on mine is just like that and after looking for a short time I realized I'll prob have to get a custom wedding band made... quag might have to do the same
(but then again, I get easily frustrated so I just don't want to deal with the hassle of searching everywhere when Bailey's can just make it ) 6/18/2010 9:58:03 AM |

EXCELLENT QUESTION

yeah, i'm not sure what we're going to do...what you can't see in the picture is that there are "peakaboo" diamonds on the side of the ring underneath the central stone...pretty much every band hides those diamonds (and more annoyingly, rubs against them)
honestly, the consistently best option we've found so far is a plain band and she's totally cool with that...the only disadvantage is that we were hoping to find something a bit more intricate, since when we travel and backpack/kayak/whatever, she wants to leave her engagement ring at home and just wear the band in case it gets lost or damaged or something
actually, there was a ring at reed's during mother's day that was a twisted silver ring with tiny diamond chips...because it's twisted, it fits really well with the peakaboo diamonds...because of the diamond chips, the silver matches the white gold very well (i don't know if you've ever compared silver and white gold side-by-side, but it's pretty obvious that they're different metals)...i don't know, we might go back and get that6/18/2010 10:12:00 AM |

silver is only iffy due to sometimes funny oxidation.... (greening, tarnishing etc)
I'm also not a fan of white gold in general though i can understand why people get it and like it. 6/18/2010 10:41:46 AM |

i'm down with plain. are most girls not?
but i totally get why she wants something more special since she'd be leaving the engagement ring at home for outdoor activities.6/18/2010 5:29:44 PM |

So can we get a proper picture of this ring? Something not taken from the top? Something not on a finger? Something that doesn't make it look NASTY AND SHIT COLORED?
ANYBODY can take better pics than that using ANY point and shoot camera.6/18/2010 9:25:37 PM |
