Hello, I recently posted pictures of my new e-ring (https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/princess-trellis-ring.94212/).

I''m excited to start looking for wedding bands. FI was so excited and has already picked one for himself!) However, my fingers are small (size 3, ring is 3.25) and the width of my e-ring is about 3mm already. I love the princess channel set bands but the ones I have seen are all at least 3mm wide. I think 6 mm of metal will look very overwhelming on me.

Also, I really love the style of the Tiffany swing rings, but wonder if the round shapes will look funny with my princess stone?

Does anyone have any w-band suggestions? I am open to plain platinum as well as diamond bands. Thank you!!

ys, my princess channel set WB is 2.5 (which is thin IMHO). It was custom made I am sure you could get one made 2 mm if that is what you want.

Have you tried stuff on? The swing is very pretty, but it's quite unique... something one should definitely try on before purchasing to make sure they like it.

I know I've seen VERY thin (1.9-2.5mm) channel-set princess eternity bands, but I'm not sure where. Maybe Pearlman's. The problem with the really thin channel-set bands is they're often milgrained/engraved/etc., and it doesn't seem like that would suit your ring.

Have you seen TravelingGal's set? She has a cushion, but her setting is very similar to yours. She wears a plain 2mm band with it. It looks very elegant, IMO!

I LOVE the Tiffany Swing, but musey is right - you should definitely try one on.

I bought a little CZ replica to see how I liked the look, and am slowly falling in love, LOL.

I think that different shapes look great together! Round with the princess would look very cool, IMO.

Something I discovered was that I didn''t like 6mm of solid metal - but combinations that include diamond bands I feel like I can get away with a little extra width.

Someone mentioned that Pearlman''s can have the Bev K eternity rings made without milgrain - what about something like this:

geck is right, BK will make any of their rings without milgrain or engraving. Are you looking for a modern WB? I kind of do like princess e-rings to have princess wedding bands. But this would work if you want something really thin. It says it is 1.3 mm. Something like this would look great. This channel set is also only 1.3 mm.

www.newoutlet.com I got a Rhodium Plated Sterling Silver 2mm Bezel Band for $20. Great to try out before committing to the real thing, LOL!

I''m actually wearing it right now with my wring while my diamond is homeless.

Weird, I can only find the replica of the jazz ring! I don't see the swing

ETA: Nevermind! I did find the "swing," but keep in mind that in the replica they used marquises, but in the actual swing it's two rounds in a marquise-shaped hole. It's surprisingly a really different look. The two rounds thing is what turned me off of the swing.

I can''t read. I have the Jazz replica, not the Swing. Sheesh. Silly gecko.
