Wide yellow gold band

canuk-gal Ideal Rock Total Posts: 9,195 Last Post: 11/19/2009 Member Since: 4/19/2004	HI: I need to tap the minds of all the resourceful ladies/men who covet yellow gold jewellery. I am looking for a tasteful, interesting, yellow gold "wedding" band. Minimum 7mm and up. No gemstones. In this width, it likely would not be higher than 18K--but I am open to suggestions. Any tips? Thanks cheers--Sharon "People who possess great qualities, do not need to show off".

AGBF Ideal Rock Total Posts: 8,048 Last Post: 11/24/2009 Member Since: 1/26/2003	All three you posted are beautiful, Sharon. My personal favorite is the Shaundra Messinger "understated" wide band with the less glossy finish, but I can understand why you would like to look at something more vivacious if you had the ring on all day ;-). Do remember that I know that designer in Hawaii, Dhyan Sherri, who will make you a wide band in high karat gold and add a gem or two if you need one to keep from getting bored. (That is if you do not want a totally plain band after all!) I have one of her rings, as you know. http://studio22k.com/ Deb A Girl's Best Friend

I hadn't gone back far enough in this thread, yet, to revive my memory on all the wonderful designers listed. Thing is, I'd love to be able to wear my Mom's wedding band, it is a 10mm brushed gold slighly domed ring, that she wore for 20 years and it still looks fabu! Unfortunately it is too large and it cannot be sized. I would like a ring that can stand wear and tear; as I am planning to return to work. HIgh gloss finishes may show the same quickly and that would be a bummer--however I am attracted to them. cheers--Sharon "People who possess great qualities, do not need to show off".

If you get something a cave man could have made, the dents the will just make it look more beautiful :-). I am only half kidding! Whether it is matte or polished, if it looks as if it is supposed to be battered, you are in business. I love the first band (as I stated above). Hammered rings would also fit your bill. Dhyan Sherri 's wide bands, which as you know she calls Flintstone rings, also fit. If you want a wide band that can take a beating at work at work, I would forgo the stones and go for a high karat plain band in a primitive style. As we well know, that doesn't rule out other rings for formal occasions!!! Are you going back to being a bench jeweler or to something else? Deb A Girl's Best Friend

I need a ring that can stand that type of wear and tear! I love the hammered look and is probably what I'll end up getting. I thought of David Keeling to make a band--he has some really dreamy rings on his website and I ccould see him when I go home to visit. cheers--Sharon "People who possess great qualities, do not need to show off".

Crown--I am not so worried about grooves (gloves and handwashing do wonders), but I understand what you are saying. I wish I could get a feel for Stullers pricing in 18K. I have not decided yet, and will look at a few more options, Reinstein-Ross amongst them. Thanks so far--and any more suggestions would be welcome! cheers--Sharon "People who possess great qualities, do not need to show off".

canuk-gal Ideal Rock Total Posts: 9,195 Last Post: 11/19/2009 Member Since: 4/19/2004	HI: Still thinking about style, brand, etc. The Clay Pot has some really cool bands/designers, their website worth taking a peek at. I contacted Reinstein-Ross and the bands I am interested in range from $2300-$2700 in high carat gold (different color options also). I also think the B-Zero Bulgari band in y/g would be neat and it would match my DH's band. Custom is not totally out either...... cheers--Sharon "People who possess great qualities, do not need to show off".
