I have not seen the Torchiere in person, but I have his Sunburst (the regular, not the petite). The close-ups on his site tend to make his pieces look heavier than they actually are. When my FI first opened the box he thought maybe there was a mixup and he got the Petite because it seemed so dainty to him in comparison to the photos! However, I LOVE it, and it is *the perfect* band thickness for me. Since the Torchiere shank is based on the Sunburst, I imagine is has a similarly sized width and profile. I have hand pics here that may give some perspective. The widest part of the shank, the side that faces your palm, is 3mm at its widest point (it's rounded so looks a little thinner), and it tapers up to about 1.5-2mm at the diamond. Also, expect to pay around $2000 for one of his standard pieces (more for custom), depending on the setting size and any accent diamonds. Starting price for anything on his site is about 1700, I believe.
ETA: Looking at my own pictures in the thread I linked above, I think rings gain weight in photos just like people do. Keep that in mind.
