**~Danielle~** Ideal Rock Total Posts: 558 Last Post: 10/21/2009 Member Since: 6/24/2005	Hi Everyone, My friend & I got engaged at the same time. Our fiancee's actually shopped together at Good Old Gold . Her ring is a beautiful lucere with a split shank. Hope you enjoy the pictures! First, some blurry sparklies!

Mara Ideal Rock Total Posts: 27,922 Last Post: 11/23/2009 Member Since: 10/30/2002	Danielle that is an awesome ring!! I went ring shopping with my girlfriend yesterday since she is getting engaged soon and we tried on some beautiful split shank rings, the gal said they are getting more popular with the mainstream. Anyway, she also noted that almost no one pairs it with a separate w-ring because the look just doesn't mesh well and she had yet to see one that WAS paired that looked like it 'fit'...she noted and showed us that something like a Michael B super thin petite princess band was the best look for it so far...but the diamonds have to be set the saqme as well. Anyway, just wondering if your girlfriend is going to wear a 2nd band or if this is it. We also tried on a few of the rings and we noticed that the center stones seemingly had to be MONSTER huge aka 3c for the ring to look like it could stand well on it's own.

What are the specs of her stone?? I bet she loves it. Yummm. Thanks Kaleigh! She loooooves the ring. Her stone has almost exactly the same specs as mine - 1.01 H VS1. I'm not sure of the rest of the specs, I'll try and get some from her. It's a Lucere - it's a really pretty cut

Thanks Tacori - the split shank is so neat. We like to "switch" sometimes while we are together, and my hands just aren't long enough for a split shank, but she is tall & has long, slender fingers, so it looks perfect on her!

Is the center stone a square hearts and arrows like yours? Hi Sundial, Actually her center stone is a Lucere. They sell them at Good Old Gold & don't really advertise much info. on their site as request from the supplier. It's really neat - it's sort of a step cut, with many sparkley facets inbetween the steps. It's yummy

We also tried on a few of the rings and we noticed that the center stones seemingly had to be MONSTER huge aka 3c for the ring to look like it could stand well on it's own. Interesting!! Hi Mara, My friend is intending on getting a wedding band, but she will probably wear the band on its own most of the time, since she works outside (most time in the dirt - environmentalist! ). The day that I got engaged (the day after she got engaged), we went out looking for wedding bands together. She tried on a plain band (ick), a teeny tiny shared prong (icky), and a small pave band (also not great). Then she started picking bands that just caught her eye & she picked up this beautiful, wide-ish band that had diamonds & sort of a swirly, flowery design. I wish I could describe it better, but I definitely haven't seen anything like it before. If we ever go back to the store (Roman Jeweler's in Bridgewater Mall, NJ - for any NJites), I'll try and snap pictures. However, the point is, although that particular band did not "match" her ring, it was a beautiful compliment. It maintained focus on her center stone, but at the same time said, "I'm married!" Her ring is a 1.01 carat, and the whole setting is maybe 5 mm wide at it's widest part, and it COULD stand on its own. But I think you'd get the eternal "are you engaged or married" question.

pebbles Ideal Rock Total Posts: 953 Last Post: 6/9/2006 Member Since: 10/8/2005	It's so pretty! I tried on a split shank ring at the jewelers recently and was surprised at how nice it looked on me. Not that I am in the market for a new setting, but I wouldn't mind one for a RHR.

I had really not tried on split shanks before (well the DK doesnt count) but it was alot of fun to do it with a 3c stone...YUM!!! I think that would be a fabulous anniversary right hand ring when I am old and gray. ________________________________ "Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." -Albert Einstein
