Channel Set Band

[indecisive]

Hey Everyone,
I have been drooling over all your rings lately and learning a lot. I love the look of pave but I am worried about being too hard on it. My boyfriend loves channel set rings but I want a ring that is 2mm wide. Is this possible with channel set rings? Most that I have see seem somewhat thick. Thanks so much!

I would talk with SignedPieces. Here is one that is 2.4mm: LINK

Mine are about 2.5 mm, maybe 3, and I know for a fact that I''ve seen smaller at a few local jewelers. I''ve never looked online though.

Here is a link to a 2mm with rounds.

I think mine is about 2mm. It''s really thin.

One more.

Your ring is SO pretty. It really is the look we are going for but still looks secure. Have you had any problems with it? Also, if you don''t mind me asking, where did you get it and what does your engagement ring look like?
Thanks so much!

Thanks! I haven''t had any problems at all with it, and I definitely tend to beat up my rings. I also have a shared prong ring, and while I feel pretty comfortable with it, I do tend to "baby" it more than the channel set one. I''ll attach some pics of it with my ering, which is a simple, Tiffany-crown head ring.

The one thing I will say about the size of the ring is that for me, on its own, it''s too small for me. I hardly wear it by itself, but sometimes I wish I had something more substantial. But the thing that attracted me to the ring in the first place was its thinness and delicateness, rather than a lot of metal, which is what some channel set rings seem to have. I got it at a small mom and pop B&M store here in Northern VA.

I didn''t notice that my wedding ring had spun in this pic.

Oh yeah, I meant to add that I have small hands (3.5-3.75) and the ring looks a little lost by itself. Just something to think about.

Wow, weird coincidence. I am from Northern VA too. Would you mind giving out the store name and location or PMing it? BTW your rings look absolutely gorgeous together. Thank you so much for your help!!

Wow, definitely weird coincidence! I bought from Five Star Jewelers in Fairfax, VA- on Rte 50 past Fairfax Circle. It was pretty reasonable, although it *is* a small carat weight.
