Split shank rings?

P: 9/2/2004 2:49:21 PM
VAgal13 Cut Rock Total Posts: 265 Last Post: 11/9/2005 Member Since: 3/1/2004	Does anyone have any pictires of split shank rings? (I think that's what they're called...) I found one on JRDunn.com, but I haven't seen a lot of them around. I think its the setting I want, but any info you have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

VAgal13 Cut Rock Total Posts: 265 Last Post: 11/9/2005 Member Since: 3/1/2004	Oh my goodness, those are exactly what I was looking for!!! Thank you! I don't exactly have a diamond yet. My boyfriend and I are still in the talking about getting engaged phase. We've been together for 3.5 years. He told me to email him pics of rings I liked...so I have been researching like crazy. I came across a split shank ring and fell in love with it. I really appreciate all the posts here...You guys rock!(excuse the punn) I really like the first one w/o diamonds in the band. But the others are nice too. I guess it just depends on if he wants to spend more on the center stone or more on the band, right? Thanks again!!!! -Sarah

reena Ideal Rock Total Posts: 2,531 Last Post: 8/22/2005 Member Since: 7/13/2004	VAgirl, DO post a pic of the split-shank that you're liking! yes i do think it might be hard to wear a wband with some of those--but i have the same problem with my setting and i just came to the wonderful revelation that it's not the end of the world because i can get a really fun detailed wband (or three ) if i wear them on my right hand instead of my left! (it would be too much if on the same finger as the ering.) so do not despair! yeah, MMM/7-1, that daniel k is an asscher-gasm. i want it now. _____________________ Cap'n Zales says, "Friends don't let friends buy the $199 holiday special!

Chrono Ideal Rock Total Posts: 11,329 Last Post: 11/24/2009 Member Since: 4/22/2004	Since I have a copy made of the first picture posted (the original is a Mark Morell work), I know that a wedding band cannot sit absolutely flush with the ring. The diamond sits quite low to finger. However, the gap is very minute. It all depends on your tolerance level. If you stare hard at it, you'll see the slight gaps but if you just look at it meaning a quick glance, it'll look flush.

VAgal13 Cut Rock Total Posts: 265 Last Post: 11/9/2005 Member Since: 3/1/2004	Reena- the ring I saw on jrdunn.com won't copy for some reason. But if you go to that website and click on "bridal" then on "engagement rings"...its the one that they show on the left side. But...after seeing the Ascher one by Daniel K, it makes that one not as appealing anymore. LOL I am really leaning towards wanting an Ascher cut. There is something very elegant and classy about that cut.

didiamond Ideal Rock Total Posts: 589 Last Post: 11/23/2009 Member Since: 7/30/2004	I thought I would just throw this one into the mix. It's a Cartier split shank but I love it with the emerald cut. Good luck in your search!

I finally saw it at a store and thought it was gorgeous but not really for me. I also saw the ring with the many many asschers...ahhhh...heaven.

VAgal13 Cut Rock Total Posts: 265 Last Post: 11/9/2005 Member Since: 3/1/2004	That is really cool how the split goes in, instead of out. I think its really pretty. I am still REALLY partial to that Daniel K one w/ the Asscher. This may be a silly question...but does anyone know if Aschers sparkle a lot? I love the cut, but wanted ot know if they are sparkly. I know they won't be as sparkly as a round brillant...but do they still catch people's eyes from across the room? The only ones I have seen are in jewelry stores, and under those lights everything sparkles. So, just wanted an honest opinion before I make a choice. Thanks again to everyone on this post!!!

reena Ideal Rock Total Posts: 2,531 Last Post: 8/22/2005 Member Since: 7/13/2004	i looooove asschers, although i haven't seen billions of them on actual people either so i'm not the best one to answer your question. love that daniel k setting too. are you in NYC? (prob not judging by your name.) but if so i can tell you a few places to go to see his settings in person. the ones i've seen are super-expensive though--$7k and up. i tried on a slightly different split shank setting of his that was $8 or $9k. _____________________ Cap'n Zales says, "Friends don't let friends buy the $199 holiday special!

love rocks Rough Rock Total Posts: 45 Last Post: 5/12/2005 Member Since: 5/18/2004	VAgal/Reena: I have seen an Asscher in person (~2ct), and it does indeed sparkle - however not the same way as a round. The one I saw sparkles very much like an emerald cut (pretty intuititive, huh?) - with bold, broad flashes - it was pretty brilliant, and had lots of colorful light, but, of course, not as much as a round shape (or another antique shape, a cushion). I think Asschers are really very very beautiful, definitely a very unique look, you just have to see one in person to truly appreciate the look. They're absolutely gorrrgeous! (drool)
