Wanted to share what an exceptional experience I had working with Victor Canera on my new pave eternity band (video link below). As many of you know, Victor is an absolute pleasure to work with. He responded so quickly to my initial request for a custom made wedding band (I recently got an antique cushion solitaire for my 10th anniversary upgrade), and was very patient as I continued to change my mind about what I wanted.

Victor offered excellent suggestions, sent me diagrams, and e-mailed with me (my preferred communication method) even over the weekend! We decided on this beautiful pave eternity band, which I will get to see in person tomorrow (can't wait!!!), but I can tell from the video what quality work he does and I know I will absolutely work with Victor again in the future.

The "specs": Shallow U-cut pave eternity band, hand forged in platinum, with 38 single cut diamonds, 0.5 ct. Here's the link to the video, please check it out (if you select 1080p on the right side, you can watch in full HD)... :)

I'm looking to get a few of the same eternity bands for stacking, hopefully soon! Love it! Do you have any handshots?

Newjewels - the band looks beautiful. I know it must have been hard for you to decide between all of the beautiful styles VC could do. I think you made a wonderful decision to go with the single cut pave band. It will be a beautiful addition to your gorgeous antique cushion. I can't wait to see all of the pictures you will post (hint, hint :wink2: ) once you receive the ring!

Finally getting the hand shots posted...I don't know how so many of you post such nice macro shots of your rings! My husband actually loves photography, has a nice camera and fancy macro lenses. Yet, he has lots of trouble getting good shots of these rings. (I am completely clueless and wouldn't even try!)

So beautiful! What is the width of the band? Does it wear away at your engagement ring at all?

Can we see a little further distance hand shot, too?

Thank you! Very nice comments. Ruby, I will tell my hubby you said so :)

The band is about 1.9 mm. I'm not sure if it will damage the basket on the e-ring...it probably could, but I won't be wearing this set everyday or at work so I plan to try and be careful about it.

I will take a further away pic soon. Happy Halloween everyone!

Love this ring! He is truly a master of his craft -- next time I need anything custom made, I'm going with Victor. Congrats on a gorgeous ring!
