Guys..
need your help to decide on a wedding band..

I like the look of a shared prong eternity band and have narrowed my choices into 2:

1. WF's Diamond for an Eternity, which is actually a 3/4 eternity, 20 round diamonds = 0.8 tcw

2. Facets Collection / Signed Pieces, 32 round diamonds = 0.83 tcw

My engagement ring is a 0.80ct solitaire white gold ( Stuller Solstice setting, size 6.5), pictured below.
Which one do you think will look better with my e-ring ?

Even though this means you don't have the full "eternity" look, I think it is a little more practical for a ring you are going to wear possibly forever...that way you can resize it if ever becomes necessary. Also, it looks like the WF diamonds are each a little bigger because of this...always a plus!

I also just have a mental thing that I like a full eternity. ----------------------------- A deal is only a deal if you are getting exactly what you want.

Rings tend to "twirl" and with a full eternity band, you will always have the diamonds showing.

I think a narrow band like that will turn over a lot and if it were me it would drive me crazy to have that metal strip showing!

Maisie Ideal Rock Total Posts: 7,766 Last Post: 11/21/2009 Member Since: 12/30/2006	Do shared prong eternity bands dig in your other fingers? I think they look beautiful but I would worry I might get sore fingers. Also with shared prong are the diamonds more safe than pave or melee?
