Flexible Men’s Wedding Band by Leon Mege

[CharmyPoo]

My future hubby has always wanted a unique wedding band that he can play around with. We went off on a mission to find it– little did I know that he is actually rather picky saying “no”, “no”, “no” to almost every idea I had. After visiting a ton of stores, we finally came across a flexible band but wanted some changes. I contacted my trusty PS vendors but most of them were not able to execute the design.

In the end, I went with Leon Mege and the wedding band turned out perfectly. The band is made out of platinum.







And with my new Leon Mege e-ring with an AVC ...

The ring is really cool, but Charmy, do you have a thread for your new AVC/Leon??? is it new? It looks gorgeous and I am dying to see more pics!

 

[sparklyforever]

Its really nice.
how thick is it?

I second the request for photos of your LM!!

 

[rosetta]

I third the request!

 

[Rae~]

I swear I posted in this thread earlier today, but it's not appearing??

Anyway, I just said that I love the idea behind the ring, and it looks great - and I would love to see a hand pic if you can convince your future-DH to "pose"...??

Oh, and I'm curious to hear your f-DH's comments after a couple of months of wearing it daily - whether it's as comfortable as he hoped, any issues, etc.

I've never heard of a flexible wedding band. It looks really cool!
By the way, I saw a few pictures of your split shank ring over in a thread in rocky talky recently... is there a thread with more pictures in it? I'm in LOVE.

 

[geckodani]

That is wicked cool!

not new for me Furrer & Jacot are way better, but nice choice, congrats and wear it on good health

Really neat ring! My hubby would love that!!!

 

[CharmyPoo]

sparklyforever - We wanted it to be as thin as possible for comfort reasons. Leon managed to get it to around 2 mm high.

rae - Maybe he will pose but I highly doubt it. He was already asking why I was posting his ring This ring is really comfortable as I got him a test flexible ring in silver which he wore for over a month. I was nervous about comfort / breakage etc but it worked out well. He actually found the flexible band more comfortable.

BEG, rosetta, oranges - I will get pics up of the new ring in a few days. The hotel lighting is bad. This ring is actually different from the one that has been posted several months back. I wanted the split to go into a single shank but it was made to go into a double shank. I don't regret my choice to have it remade (even though it is now a cheaper ring tht I am paying the same price for).

geckodani, stepcutnut - Thanks much!

fogdancer - Wow what a classless comment but I guess you aren't aware of the etiquette on Show me the Bling. For education purposes, it is Furrer Jacot and not Furrer & Jacot. Have you seen this version of his ring in real life because I have and in my opinion - my Leon Mege is better and trust me I don't have blinders on for my own versus others. Further, the original design actually came from Cartier but it has been discontinued and they only make a non-flexible version now. Leon Mege actually made the flexible versions for Cartier a while back.

Charmy,
The concept is incredibly cool and the execution is excellent. I highly doubt a piece like this can be created via the cast method so hand made is the only option. I wish your SO would model the ring for pictures but I understand his hesitation. I hope you’ll also start a new thread on the new LM ring with tons of pictures.

 

[Bleed Burnt Orange]

That is so cool!!! It's like a watch for his finger! I too would like to see it being modeled by your husband to be!

 

[lizzyann]

Cool ring Charmy! I really like it! And I ditto seeing more pics of your new ring! Actually maybe do a collection thread!!! Love your pieces!

 

[Orchid Lei]

I love the picture of the 2 rings together, nice original bling!

CharmyPoo, it seems that you had wanted a split single shank, but got a split double shank. Did Leon make a mistake?

 

[waterlilly]

I love this! I wonder if his fingers are ... ahem ... insulated with as much fur as my husband's are?

Does he have any trouble with it pinching/pulling the hair on his finger?

 

[LAG2010]

that's such a cool ring. i've never seen anything like that before and can't wait for the hand shots.

your other ring is absolutely gorgeous!! looking forward to those pics as well!!

 

[Venice]

I love, love, love your ring and your DF's ring is too cool! You both have excellent taste for jewelry!

 

[Matata]

tres chic. love it. use all of your feminine charms to get him to give us a hand shot.

 

[Blackpaw]

Super cool band and now im also drooling waiting for a thread on your gorgeous AVC ring

 

[kenny]

Wow wow wow!
I love it.

I like this enough to get my little FCDs installed into something like that.

 

[ForteKitty]

Charmy, i must see more pics of your gorgeous ring!!! your future hubby has a great ring too... hope you dont mind if I steal that idea.

 

[Efe]

Both rings are AMAZING.

 

[Love Street]

Wow Charmy - GORGEOUS rings!!! I love the flexible band - so unique and cool. Can't wait to see the full photoshoot of the AVC!

 

[maiyavel]

Just gorgeous! I would love to see hand shots! My hubby would have loved that!

 

[acebruin]

cool charmy! i'm with kenny on this one, i wonder if it's possible to set a small fancy colored into something like that... hmmm i would love to have 1...

 

[yssie]

This is a really interesting piece Charmy - what a great idea for hard-to-fit fingers, and as Chrono said the execution is perfect. He must be very happy with it!

 

[CharmyPoo]

I personally think the band is made a little small but the fiance thinks it is perfect (who am I to say then). Anyways, talked him into some hand pics. A stone can be set into the band. I actually wanted to do that but the fiance refused any type of stone.

Are the links held together with screws?

 

[CharmyPoo]

Are the links held together with screws?

Yup - it is essentially like a mini watch band. You can't see the screws because they are covered.
