I’m considering Whiteflash’s Butterflies ring as a potential 3-stone setting, and while I feel like I’ve seen a hundred pictures and probably the same number of threads related to this setting in my research, I’m not finding answers to a few questions I have as I weigh my options.
I’ve noted plenty of comments about wearing a band with it, diamond height, cast vs. hand-forging, etc. Specifically, I’m curious if those who have worn/owned it might opine about how durable and/or delicate you find it to be? It appears by design to strike a fine balance in that department, but I’m curious how it actually feels/wears in that regard. Do you feel the need to ‘baby’ it at all? Only wear it out/about or round the clock (except during obvious activities you’d remove it)? I’m also curious if you find yourself catching things with the side diamonds’ single outer prong. And any other ‘wearability’ observations you might share are most welcome and appreciated!
I’m tagging the design’s originator - @yssie (beautiful, GORGEOUS work ) - as well @Rosebloom & @Siamese Kitty who are a few names which have come up in my searches as current/former owners who appear to still be active on PS. I’m sure I’m missing others; my apologies and please feel free to tag them if you happen to know.
Thanks much, in advance, for sharing your observations!
