This is gorgeous! I would go for the all diamond with matching details!

I would go for either a matching band, or an engraved band that matches, but without the diamonds. I love it!

Beautiful it looks perfect on you! I wouldn't go for a matching band it's such an unusual ring and I think it would take away from that.

So pretty! Maybe put up pics of bands you are considering so we can weigh in!

Thanks @Begonia, @GearGirly, @motownmama, @meely, @lorrissey, and @nala!!
Great idea Nala! The two options so far are the matching band (shown in rose gold from his Etsy site, but it would be in the amazingly bright 18K yellow gold that he used for my ring. My jeweler called it Royal gold. Never heard of that!)

Or the same ring above with all diamonds and no engraved motifs in between the diamonds but same width and millgrain, etc.
There are a couple of diamond eternity bands on his IG account. Couldn't save a photo from there tho, but it's pretty easy to imagine.
I tried on a simple, thinner, all-diamond eternity band with it but I didn't love it.

Ok, here are a few under the tree in my back yard! The big question is do I want a matching band or an all-diamond eternity with similar details?

A couple of options I found at my favorite second hand jewelry store. The first one has alternating yellow and rose gold motifs in the center.

Tried on these Simon G bands today. One yellow, one white. I liked the yellow. I like this look quite a bit but it would be an expensive option as I'd want two bands (but I wouldn't get Simon G, just something similar). The upside would be I'd have a couple of bands I could stack with other things. Decisions decisions!!

And the winner is ... my grandmother's wedding band! I recently inherited her wedding set, but I don't really like wearing the set together on my right hand, so I think I'll wear the band with my yellow gold oval and continue to wear her e-ring as a RHR.
The lighting is so good at my church that I decided to sneak a video after the service was over while the organist was still playing. So, here is my DK set oval with my grandmother's wedding band set to Louis Vierne's Final movement from his Symphony No. 1. :lol: The photo is her wedding set. She got married in 1939.

I have to say @Starfacet, your pictures are exquisite!!! SOOOO much better IRL!! I really like the stack, but your granny's band is just superb! I'd have both so I can swap them out whenever I like. :lol: DK did an outstanding job on your setting.

Thank you so much, @SandyinAnaheim! I agree, DK did an amazing job. Now I'm just trying to decide which project I want him to do next. The list is long! One thing I know for sure that I want is ear hoops the same as the yellow gold ring. I think that would be cool! DK said he'd never done that before, so I definitely want to try it!
