CourtHorn Cut Rock Total Posts: 158 Last Post: 9/6/2008 Member Since: 12/31/2005	I am going to have a cushion cut diamond 1.2-1.5 carats. I am having WF make an ER setting and band for me. All along I thought i was going to go with pave or shared prong, but I think I have decided I want a plain solitaire with a shared prong wedding band. Do you think that will be ok? I never see any cushions that aren't in pave bands. So, I need ideas/pics to give my BF so he can get this thing designed (or if its already made, then that is even better!) I know that it must: Fit flush with wedding band be 2mm wide (approx) look ok with plain or shared prong wb have claw prongs I would like it to have be unique as well. Surprise diamonds/sapphires maybe (if that is possible). Also, will i have to get this soldered together to protect them from rubbing against each other? Thanks!

(Sorry...I've never figured out how to post links...) I found it by doing a search for "eternity bands". It's a long thread with lots of pics and discussion... You might check it out.... widget

And a well made band shouldn't need to be pegged to the ring to be safe on it. Ana "The greatest experts are only as good as the sum total of what they have seen." [Souren Melikian]

CourtHorn Cut Rock Total Posts: 158 Last Post: 9/6/2008 Member Since: 12/31/2005	Thanks MrsSalvo-- Do you think that a ring like that hers could be made thinner (~2mm)? Also, it looks like it sits flush. Does it seem like it would sit flush if it were thinner? ETA: I just re-read her thread, and it looks like there is a small gap between the 2 rings. Hmm, wonder if it would bother me...
