The channel set is my favorite (looks perfect with your ring!) followed by the 2mm micropave.

For a simpler look, I think the 1.7 round Tiffany band also looks great with it.

My thoughts exactly! I think the simple 2mm channel set band compliments the 3-stone ring well. Very pretty!

I like the first one the best, the knife edge.

Definately the Tiffany Channel set! Looks perfect with your E-Ring. Would be a lovely pair.

I love #2 - it's so simple and clean, and contrasts beautifully with your blingy Ering :))

Yssie-- you have a phenomenal wedding set! Yours was the reason why I tried on the round band :wink2:
BTW, the Tiffany SA preferred the round band (of the plain bands); she thought it "softened" the whole look.


Thank you mol ::) 'softer' is exactly the right description for what I'm seeing and liking, but like PPs have said it'd be hard to go wrong with any of them!

IMO, the Tiffany channel set band is perfection with your ring. Love it! I also really like the 2mm micropave band. Your ring is so beautiful any of those bands will look lovely.

Well, we just got back from Tiffany with our wedding bands!
The verdict is in, and I went with . . . . . option #2 (1.7mm round band.)
The reasoning went like this-- 1. DF preferred the plain band and 2. since I liked both the plain band AND the diamond eternity band, I figured I would get the plain band for the WB, and get an eternity band for a future anniversary gift (hee, hee - ;))

BTW, I told the sales associates at Tiffany about my little PS poll, and they looked at me with a mixture of befuddlement and amusement (or rather, like I just sprouted 3 heads, but oh well. . . . )

THANK YOU ALL for your input! I appreciate it very much! :appl:

I love how "at home" the 2mm channel set looks with your e-ring. It's got my vote!

I didn't see this thread until after you made your choice, but I was going to vote for either of the plain bands. I love plain bands with 3-stone rings, and blingy bands with solitaires - the contrast is so pretty.

Plus, it's really nice to have a wring without diamonds for everyday wear - that way you never have to take it off. I wish I had done that for my wband.

#2 and #3. Love the contrast of the plain band with your gorgeous ring. The channel set seems to really let your ring shine as well, but just adds a bit of understated bling. Can't wait to see what you decide!

Excellent choice! You can never run out of options with that ring. They all looked fantastic.

My vote goes to either the knife edge or the channel. I think those two bands fit the nicest up againt you Ering... while the other two have more of a gap look- but it's really your preference. The channel adds more bling, but the knife edge is nice and simple and doesnt take away from your large sparklies...

Definitely the Tiffany 2mm channel set band. That one looks like a "just right" size. Then I'd get a Tiffany round band but in a 2mm size for the days when you feel like going a little simpler. I'm not terribly fond of the look of the knife edge band with your e-ring.

I agree with this.

I like your choice too! I much prefer the plain bands with the three stones rings or the diamond band with the solitaires.

You're right - you can always get a diamond band later. . . OR. . . get a great big wedding band/eternity band/five stone band for your right hand for an anniversary or whatever!! :appl:

They all look pretty good for sure. For me, it would be between the 1.7 plain rounded, or the channel. I agree with the Tiffany's lady - the knife edge makes the whole look too sharp.

Regarding plain vs. diamond band.... It's tricky - I think the overall look is more clean and classic with the plain band, if you intend to wear them together always. However, for the days when you just wear the wedding band, I can see wanting to have something a little sparkly. So I'd get both eventually, and for the one you get first, choose the one that represents how you'd wear it most often? If most often they'll be worn together, get the plain band now and the channel later? Anniversary gift :) ?

Whoops, reading back you already picked one. Sorry!

I think the plain round and the channel set both sit really well with your e-ring but I do like the plain band a little more.

I am getting a very similar (round/pear) ring set currently by Brian Gavin, and I thought that the Tiffany round and the Tiffany shared-setting rings looked best with this style when I tried them on at Tiffany's. The knife edge, even though it matches the shank, gets completely lost under the ring (especially in the larger size stones) and can't be seen at all.

I did not try on a channel set (that I remember), but I would vote for that one amongst the diamond options you presented. It's hard to judge the last two options because they're too big on you and the fit is throwing me off!
