Another pave band question....

[PuddyKat]

First of all, are pave eternity rings practical? I'm thinking of a pave band of .85 to a carat tw of 1.5-2 pointers. It would be worn all the time with my engagement ring. Will I ever lose a diamond or two? If that happens, would it be difficult to fix? Also, how are pave bands made? Something about drilling holes etc.

Thanks!

A while back, DiamonBob from White Flash explained how pave setting is done. Here's a link to that thread:

Maybe some of the jewelry experts will chime in and answer durability concerns, etc.
