Her ring is Tacori..  trying to match to some degree the carved look.  If I can't then I'll just opt for a plain band.   I'm looking at 9mm bands.  Tell me your opinion.   I'll post some pictures

I love 3, but I'm also a minimalist.

2 or 3.









Nothing is more sacred as the bond between horse and rider...no other creature can ever become so emotionally close to a human as a horse. When a horse dies, the memory lives on because an enormous part of his owner's heart, soul, very existence dies also...but that can never be laid to rest, it is not meant to be...

lol None of them are what I'd call horrible! But I still go with my original pick. And I really do love that one.


Do you have a preference?

LOL!!!  I agree none of them are horrible at all, just a matter of taste, I still like my original picks too!

I like the 'plain' white gold band with the scroll out of those choices.   I feel I'm a minimalist as well but I'm trying to break out of my mold somewhat.  I've worm a plain 10mm domed silver band on my right hand for the past 20 years.   I was trying to find something different I suppose.  I do like the milgrain in 9mm as well.   I like two tone, I like rose gold... I like alot so I know there has to be something else out there besides a plain domed band

I have to go with 2 or 3 also.  Depends how showy you want to be.  I thought my husband would pick out a plain simple band but he went for a 2
tone (plat and gold) with 1/3 carat tw diamond band  (who knew!).  Other than his ring, he wears no other jewelry.  Not even a watch.

Nothing wrong with that! It's good to break out of our self imposed molds sometimes. Just be sure you pick something out because you really like it, and you can live with it.

Number 3 is the only one i like.  My husband has a plat band with milgrained edges - it's totally classic, but still has enough detail to keep it interesting.

#3 of those.

What about something like this?  http://www.e-weddingbands.com/store/plat18khome.html  Simple, yet incorporates the two tone.

I still love number 3 but if your wanting to break the mold a little have you considered something like a mokume game ring?

This is what my FI is considering for his WB

Gonna have to go with the majority here-- #3! (love it!)

I like #2-- but I think for your wedding ring-- it might not be the time to break from the mold
(you want to get something that you will NEVER get sick of... breaking from the mold is what RHRs are for!)

I would go with 3 also, but I understand your desire to do something a little different.  Hmm, I'll try searching and see if I can come up with anything else...

http://www.pearlmansjewelers.com/jewelry-designers/charles-green-jewelry/rings/25HH1/  This one might be a bit more subtle, but similar idea.

Or this beaudry; I like this one-  http://www.pearlmansjewelers.com/jewelry-designers/michael-beaudry-jewelry/rings/12B1/

Hmm, they have some 'rope' designs too that are more masculine appearing.

Mmmmmmm.... Not really my cup of tea. I'd still choose #3, myself.
