My birthday is tomorrow and I have been lusting over bezel set eternity bands for a while, so I was given permission ;-) to get myself one for my birthday! I designed the ring myself after looking at dozens of beautiful bezels but not finding exactly what I was looking for: alternating round and princess stones turned 45 degrees, with millgrain. Luckily, I had a channel set band with princess and baguette stones, so the jeweler (Stanley Brown Jewelers in Chicago) was able to use the princess stones out of it, which cut down on cost. Now I have 8 little baguettes that I don''t know what to do with it (possibly a halo for my asscher???)

Anyway...I took a few pics tonight, but my camera battery is dead, so I didn''t get to experiment too much, but enjoy these, and I will post more (better) ones later!

On my hand, with my e-ring and wedding band. This pic does not do my asscher justice

but the lighting is bad. I will get better pics once the camera is charged and I can remember how to take good pics of my rings up close! I was just so excited and wanted to post pics ASAP!

This is better! The light is making my asscher look really yellow for some reason. It''s an H and not yellow at all, so it must be the light in my kitchen.

Thanks everyone for the sweet comments! I absolutely love it and it turned EXACTLY the way I wanted, so I am happy! I told hubby that I *think* I am done with jewelry purchases for a while now, but who knows! LOL

I think I got some better pics tonight, with natural light. I''m a novice when it comes to taking pics of my rings, so please understand ;-)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

I just love your new eternity band. I really like the settings that are NOT straight across. They just look better on my hand.

And I think your ering looks lovely and much BIGGER than 1.19ct Asscher! You choose well for your hand. It''s perfect.

Really, really pretty! I have a band with princess stones that I''m thinking of selling or disassembling...this is a fantastic concept!

Happy birthday! The band is lovely, and I am loving your idea of making a halo with those 8 baguettes. It''s the custom cut corner baguettes that cost some $, but having a fair amount of the ct. weight covered could make it very affordable!
