wow, the views of the gallery make me swoon!
His craftsmanship gets me every time I see a pic. I love KristyDarling''s ring, too.

In this order:
1. I like the ring alone
2. I really like seeing all the different diamond shapes together when paired with the eternity band
3. It''s beautiful with the plain band

I''m a big fan of mixing it up depending on the mood du jour.
Have you ever tried your plain wedding band with the eternity band?
I''m wearing that combo today and I like that too
(see Alicia Silverstone in Celebrity Rings thread over in "hangout")

congrats on your beautiful remount!

Warning, many pictures to follow. I haven''t had the chance to purchase flowers for flower shots, but those will come tomorrow, and then I think I''ll be done posting pictures of my ring as I''m sure you''ll be sick of it soon!

I really want to give a good cleaning, but am afraid becuase of the side baguette. With my loupe I saw that the claw on the baguette is one hair thickness from touching the stone like the other prongs...

I am going to call Leon on monday, but have also left a message with Quest as they''re closed on weekends (and probably Memorial Day).

Thank you everyone again for the comments and suggestions!!! None of my friends are engaged and when I talk about diamonds with them, they roll their eyes, and say "It''s JUST a diamond"

JUST?

I''m really REALLY OB, and anal about small details. So the idea of pairing my ER with a band is daunting... I hate the scratches that happen when they rub against each other.

Don''t get me wrong, I LOVE LOVE Patina!! But when the bands are different in height/width, the patina doesn''t wear ''even''. Does that make sence?

So I''m right now wearing just the eternity and ER. Thankfully the wedding band shank doesn''t touch the top of the basket area.

I''m curious how it''ll fit w/ the Ritani that I ordered from DBOF...

I loooove your ring! As far as combos go, you''re a winner any way you choose!

I am partial to a plain 2mm band with a classic setting like tapered baguettes, but then again, I''m partial b/c that''s what I have (although my center stone is a RB). Especially with a nice low setting like that, I think the metal really showcases the beautiful diamonds in your e-ring.

And I love the suggestion to stack eternity/plain wedding bands as an alternative look. I always think it looks so classy!

Very beautiful! I want a Leon, too!!!

Regarding the bands, I think you can wear it with or without. I''d probably say that I don''t think the plain band adds anything to the look, so I''d probably wear the Leon ring alone. If you want to wear a band to add a little bling sometime, then wear the diamond bands.

Ok, as promised, here are some flower shots of the ring. The prong is fixed, so I feel better about that:) I wanted Quest to do it, but they''re closed today due to the holiday. Now I never did get ahold of Leon about having someone else touch his work, but I really can''t afford to ship my ring out again for $600 round trip/insured/overnightUPS again... But the work is perfect on the baguettes...

So here''s some pictures. I''m not a huge fan of carnations, but this is all I could find since most of the flower shops were closed!!!

excuse the window frame in the background. Even though it''s in the 90''s in No. VA, it''s a bit windy, and I don''t want to chance it outside just yet
