I've been a guest here for about 6 months, ever since I got my ring. I was wondering what all you experts think about my set and whether you could suggest a better band to go with it. I wanted something delicate/art deco looking. The center stone is 0.73 E/SI2 with the greatest inclusion. I love it. It's on the side by a prong so I couldn't find it for close to a week. Full weight is 1.3 I think. The band is semi-eternity with 0.25 ct.

Let's hope the pic works. I'm a newbie

Your set looks very pretty. Can you show some closer photos from the top and profile? I love seeing the rings from all angles and especially close enough to distinguish detail!

Looks pretty! Why do you want a "better" band - what don't you like about your current one? (closer pics would help)

I think the set is beautiful.  I wouldn't change the band if I was you.... I would just buy another one to add to them

Beautiful set. Congratulations!

I like the band with the e ring. How about art deco for a RHR?

bettina, I really like your e-ring and the set, but if you'd like your wedding band to match more closely, I'd order the channel set band to match you e-ring.  If you know what company made the mounting for your e-ring, it should be very easy to order the matching band.  Keep your shared prong band either as a RHR or for days when you don't feel like wearing your wedding set.

Your rings are beautiful! If you were to change anything, I'd get a band that matches your e-ring shank more perfectly. I'd need to see more close-ups, but it appears that your e-ring band is channel-set and your wedding band is bead-set. This is because I'm personally not a fan of mixing different styles. I'd look for a channel-set band to match better. Otherwise, they're gorgeous!

I love your set, very pretty.  I agree with those that suggested a channel set band if you are looking for a more matched set, but otherwise I love what you have.

Your set is very nice.  When you have a chance, please post hand shots, which might make it easier to suggest a deco band that might look nice on your hand.

It's gorgeous! I'd love to see hand shots. While I love your set as it is (I'm a big fan of non matchy sets), I might suggest going with a channel-set diamond band if you're looking for something that matches a little more closely.

Your set looks nice now. I thought it was a matched set! If you want to go more Deco, why not try on a band that alternates rounds with baguettes in a channel setting, but still coordinates with the e-ring?

Thanks everyone! I tried for handshots and my camera is pissed. So, no luck. The e-ring is channel set and the band is bead set. I don't really care for the channel set but he picked it out and otherwise I think he did great. Thanks for all the suggestions. I love the idea of the baguette / round band. I'll have to look into that.
The band I picked out is pretty and within budget but it just hasn't struck me as "the one." It's the rest of my life, you know? I doubt I'd ever upgrade.

That's hilarious, I was just drooling over yours. I originally wanted a solitare around 0.50 but FH wanted something "blingy." I think I'm the first girl in that store who said it looked too big, but I've grown into it. I'd still change the setting to a tiffany if he wouldn't have a fit.
