Hi All

I just got back from holidays and had a parcel waiting for me. My swirly ring from Adzia was here!!!

Now i love this ring but i don't think it suits my e-ring

My e-ring is quite blocky and square where the swirly ring is delicate.

Here are some pics. Excuse the ugly hands, tried to cut out the worst bits :)


I love this ring so I may just wear it as a RHR.
Just wanting some opinions. Does it look ok or should i go for a plain band or something like this

or this one

Re: Got my wedding ring but i don't think it goes with e-rin

What *I* am planning to do for my engagement ring/wedding ring situation is wear my engagement ring on my left (it is a round brilliant solitaire with pave going all the way around the band), and get a really great blingy eternity band for my right hand as my technical wedding ring, but then also get like a 1 mm plain platinum band from etsy, etc., and wear that on my left hand with the e-ring. I spent so much time and effort maximizing the thinness of the e-ring band to make the stone pop that it seems like it would be a waste of that effort if I just added an eternity band right next to it and doubled the thickness, especially if it were a super blingy one (but I really want a blingy one!). So that seems to me to be the best solution.

While I think your e-ring and wedding ring are really pretty, and could totally be worn together, I think doing a thin, plain band with your e-ring on the left and wearing the blingy band on your right hand works too! And you could switch it up from time to time if you wanted!

Beautiful band. It would look perfect as a RHR. For your wedding band, I think a simple band of the same polish would look great. I wouldn't put the matte band next too it.

I'm not planning on wearing anything with my e-ring. If I do get a wedding band I probably will wear it as a RH ring

I'll be the outlier - I actually quite like the two together! I think they complement one another nicely: something about the width of the two bands and the visual echo of the bezels pulls it all together. But it does look like a lot of ring for one finger - is it comfortable?

Alternately, the separate hands thing is a good way to go: I do a modified version of it myself by wearing my wedding band stacked with eternities on my right, and my engagement ring paired with more delicate bands on my left. Win-win!

The band is really pretty, but I feel it's just too different a style to be worn with the ering. It seems like the two rings are competing with each other for attention. And IMO the two rings together look a little bulky. I think a plain thinner band would complement your ering and let it be the star of the show. I love the band though, it would make a great rhr - or even a substitute wband for times when you want to wear something simpler but still want a little bling.

The band is very pretty but if it was me I think I would wear it as a RHR and get a plain band as my wedding ring in the same finish as the e-ring. That´s just my honest opinion, but these days many people wear rings that don´t perfectly match together, do what feels right for you.

I really like the two rings together. I'm typically quirky in my aesthetic tastes, to be honest, but I would wear them together. I like the way the contrasting styles makes each individual ring's style more pronounced.

LOVE that band, by the way.

I actually also like the look. It's very modern and interesting with the pattern mixing.

Re: Got my wedding ring but i don't think it goes with e-rin

Hi all

Thanks for the replies. I love this band as well. It was killing me to be overseas for a month knowing it was at home. It turned up 2 days after i left for holidays
Sorry i should put some stats on it. It is 18K 3.5mm wide, size 6.25

I think i prefer the swirly ring on top!! does that sound stupid? What do you think?


I tried my e-ring with a cheapie band i bought and i think a plainer band would look better, maybe the first link i posted but in a polished finish


But i don't think i could wear all 3. I don't have enough real estate. I need to find out how to stretch my fingers a bit :)

Not sure. I think i am just looking for an excuse to buy some more little bling :). Maybe i should get a plain 2mm band and see how it looks

Circe it isn't too bad, not uncomfortable but i am still trying to get used to wearing a ring on my left finger. I can't wear jewellery to work and didn't take it on holidays so it feels weird on my finger anyway :)

Oooh, I actually really like the cheapie band with your ering! And I went back and looked at the first ring, and yes, I think it would look great in a polished finish alongside your ering. Just better suited, to my eye anyway! :cheeky:

That said, if you like the swirly band with the ering, go for it, it certainly looks pretty - but for me, I really lean towards the first band you posted in a polished version.
