Opinions: How would this band look with my E-ring?

[StageDva]

My E-ring is a Platinum, 4 prong, round, brilliant cut solitare - .78 ct

This is what I''m thinking for my wedding band, but I''m not sure if the size would overpower the .78 stone of my E-ring. What do you guys think? Thanks for your opinions!

Is it an eternity band? If so that would look

with your solitare!!!

Is it this one round eternity band

That band has .06 pointer stones. That might be a bit much for your size engagement ring. Have you considered something like a .03 pointer? If you do a search you''ll find ame has recently purchased a .03 pointer eternity band that goes really well with her ering thats slightly larger than yours, doens''t overpower it at all.

I love the style but you might consider getting a bit of a thinner band (and therefore smaller diamonds) because it might overpower your e-ring. Maybe try and see it (or something similar) in person and see how it looks with a thinner vs. thicker version.

I''d measure the band width of your e-ring and get something that''s the same width or only slightly wider/thinner ... to my eyes the same width bands looks the most appealing. E.g. if you e-ring is 2.3mm wide, get a 2.3mm wide eternity band.

yes - that''s the one (just with the specs from above) - what do you think?

Ok, here's some pics of ame's .86 carat with a 3 pointer eternity band. i personally like the look of a daintier sparkley band that will really make the center stone stand out. I agree you should go and try to see a few in person to get idea of the different sizes and how they will look. I lOVE ame's set and think something like it with your stone would look just gorgeous.

I think the concept is beautiful, but I too would suggest a smaller width for the band. I love the look of a solitare with an eternity band.

Hello all, I am trying to design a new mounting for my 1 ct ER. I see you are talking about 3 pointers. I hope you can answer this question if I am looking to have a wider band so I don''t have to wear a wedding band, I was thinking of 3.5-4mm, (I am having a halo setting) can you tell me if a 3 pointer is 3mm? I know my diamond is 6.5mm. Does a 3 pointer simply mean it is 3/100 of a carat? I am trying to modify this Ritani setting. I think the halo has 1mm stones, I would like a little larger, but what is it called a 1.5 pointer? I have to do a pretty exact drawing. I am used to designing buildings, and a like things exact, but I am having a problem figuring out this diamond dimension stuff. Thanks!
