It's arriving tomorrow!! I'm so excited and can't wait to see how the band looks with my J. Maybe I can get away with it. >:B~

Alternatively, this 2.2 G is also available and would be matchy matchy in terms of color. It's smaller but I like the look of this stone and WF says it's eye clean and bright white: https://www.whiteflash.com/loose-diamonds/round-cut-loose-diamond-4187472.htm

I'm afraid I can't have the 2.5 H VS1 ACA AND this band atm so something has to give. :/ @diamondseeker2006 this may be your calling - lol. I know you want that 2.5 H VS1!

How about this H 2.5 diamond? Is this enough of a price decrease? https://www.whiteflash.com/loose-diamonds/round-cut-loose-diamond-4022268.htm

What size is the diamond in your picture with the Embrace band - your upgrade two times ago?

Lol, no - that is a price INCREASE! Believe it or not, the 2.5 H VS1 is $1k less expensive.

The big e-ring picture is the 2.9 K which was around 9.25mm. The smaller one is 1.6 H which was around 7.5mm. I think any size in between would look nice - the 8 pointer Embrace is a little black dress!

Staying in the $27k mark would be ideal but I can always wait. This one is also an option although WF said I might not see a satisfactory difference with one color grade.


Then again, an I color e-ring might be fine with the band. I do like the idea of matching G's tho. So luxe!

The rings on your avatar are gorgeous! Do you mind sharing the size of your solitaire and band?

Not at all! The solitaire is 2.09 ct and the band is made of 5 pointers, so a little smaller than what you just got! Also size 4.5 finger.

I love the proportions of your set and the stone on your e-ring looks huge on you!

Is there a way to avoid the need for a spacer?

Yay you got it!!! I have this band too it's great! I'm terrible with dimensions but I can tell you the metro is not tall enough to keep the embrace stones from rubbing on my solitaire. The soleste band does a good job as a spacer but I don't love how it all looks together. So I am looking around for something else to use. I really want something minimal that is not noticeable. Maybe rose gold as it tends to blend with my skin....
Can't wait to see your hand shots!!!

A few days a week! It’s my bling bling band. I have a few bands I rotate/stack. But I like it best without stacking anything else with it, just my solitaire and the embrace.

AHH! I'm blinded! And that bohemoth ring!

I looked at your previous thread and was right when I thought, "That's got to be a 4 ct!" Does it go okay with the colorless stones of the Embrace in person? Maybe I can get away from my J chunker, too! >:B

LOL! My solitaire is 4.03 ct J VS2. The prongs need some refining but it has to wait til the world reopens!
You are going to love your new embrace and I hope it arrives quickly!!!

Oh we could have a whole conversation about the J stones....
So yes, it goes nicely with the band, I never notice the band looking whiter than the ring. Both rings are reallllly sparkly so that's what I see.
But alas, I am color sensitive. And a J is a J no matter how well cut. My previous stone was an F. I had a very serious look at other stones when I was resetting to the plain solitaire. I could not see a difference between the J and I! I think you had considered an I?
There was a G I really liked, but my hubby and jeweler just thought I was nuts, it was 3.6 ct and an additional $6k. I didn't mind going down a bit, but ultimately I stayed with this one. With the new setting I love it.
Nobody but me is going to notice the warmth in it that I only see in my car and in my kitchen. Maybe it doesn't help that my kitchen is completely cream colored, cabinets, walls and ceiling! Maybe someday I'll upgrade to a colorless stone, but not anytime soon!

I feel your journey as I've had stones from G to K. I'm glad you are at peace with your set because it's awesomely GORGEOUS!

It’s pretty but it’s too loose and slipping off my finger unless I wear it under a tighter ring!! A whole size too big. What do I do! My finger could get bigger in the future given it’s a Tiffany eternity. Waahh! D13F433D-A875-4CAC-88D6-136E89702BBB.jpeg

Oh no! Do you think it’s the right size then? When I tried on the Tiffany in store the size 4.5 felt tighter than other 4.5s I’ve tried on elsewhere.

Well it looks gorgeous! You can tell it’s big on you though - could she have sent the other size ring she had in stock by mistake?

I also know Tiffany can put a sizing bar in, I’d think that would be more comfortable than the beads.

@TweetyBird23 it’s a beautiful band and I actually like it with your rose gold soli, but I am sorry to say- it’s too large :( I would return it.

I don’t know! A 4 would be perfect but I also don’t want it too tight in the future. It feels like a 5 but when I asked the vendor to re-measure it s/he said it was 4.5.
