Show Me Your WF Channel Set Bands Pretty Please

P: 9/24/2008 7:13:53 PM
honey22 Ideal Rock Total Posts: 3,951 Last Post: 11/24/2009 Member Since: 7/29/2007	Hi guys, I have just got my quote back from WF to make my 2mm channel set band (they are just sooo much better prices than Australia!). Does anyone have any pics? I am getting mine in ygold (3/4 eternity) but I would love to see pics of any metal etc. Or links too would be appreciated. Does anyone know how 'deep' the ring is? ie. how far off my finger would it sit? Profiles shots would be so much appreciated!! Thanks in advance ladies. Wedding Date Take 2: 26th November 2009!

I see more shared prong, U-prong, bar set, pave bands...not too many channel bands. I had one (not from WF), but sold it. Therre must be someone out there with a channel band for ya? Good luck!

Lurchie Cut Rock Total Posts: 205 Last Post: 11/24/2009 Member Since: 1/2/2005	Here's my princess channel set band in platinum. Mine is 2.5mm wide and sits very low to my finger. I don't know if you can see this in the pics, but the ring is even a little thinner at the top than the bottom. It is really nice and flat, which I love. Sorry no hand shots - still working on that. ETA: And it is WAY more delicate IRL than in the photo. I asked WF to make the edges of the channel as thin as possible to make the diamonds really stand out. I wear it with my e-ring that has a pretty wide band and I wanted to minimize the amount of visible metal.

I have a princess solitaire that I'd like to pair with a thin princess channel, but all the channel princess rings I see are at least 3.0mm wide. Would you mind sharing the specs of your lovely ring?

Thanks! I had the same troubles finding a band narrower than 3mm - it's the principle reason I did not end up going with Signed Pieces, although they were lovely and helpful. I think WF's standard width is 3, but they told me they could get it down to 2.5 by shaving the sides a bit. It sounds like Honey's will be 2mm...awesome! I'd be happy to give you the specs - just have to look up the paper work when I get home.

I have: round/diamond (full), alt. diamond/saphire (full), sapphire (3/4), ruby/diamond (half) and my latest - princess emerald/diamonds my hubby got for my b-day. I didn't reply b/c I don't have picture capability, but I just wanted to let you know I do LOVE mine and I'm sure you will too!

I don't want it to be more than 2.5mm wide. When I was chatting to WF about this band a while ago, they weren't sure if they could make a channel set band in the 2mm or if it had to be bead set, but when I asked about it this time, there was no mention of the bead setting (I would prefer it without). So maybe I should email again to double check it? I know Tiffs do a 2mm channel set band without beads so I can't see why it can't be done? Wedding Date Take 2: 26th November 2009!

Lurchie Cut Rock Total Posts: 205 Last Post: 11/24/2009 Member Since: 1/2/2005	I finally took some decent pics of my rings yesterday and will start a new thread in SMTR this weekend. In the meantime, the specs on my band are: 10, .04ct princess-cuts, .40 tcw F/G VS And did I mention how super sparkly it is? It's just the best. Honey, you'll be so happy with it! Puffy - your rings are so pretty! ilovedogs - that's great that SP made you such a thin one. Maybe their policies have changed?
