I'm looking for an aquamarine and diamond ring with the following features as a gift to a special someone for xmas:

-eternity, partial eternity, or etoile/starlight style band (scattered gems in a solid metal band)
-diamonds and aquamarines should be approx. equal in size and number (i.e., not a 3-stone ring)
-white gold or silver

I love the Etienne Perret starlight bands, and am considering one with blue and white diamonds if I can't find something with aquamarines, but would prefer to stay under $500 while still being high quality.

Throw any suggestions or cool finds my way! Thanks!

Greenlake jewelers in Seattle has some gorgeous "scattered" sapphire bands on their website. I know that they quoted me about $1,000 for the one pictured on the site which had MANY multicolored sapphires and diamonds in it. I would imagine that something with fewer/no diamonds and aquas would be a bit cheaper...but I don't know how much.
 
Thanks, Neatfreak. I hadn''t thought of Green Lake for this project, but I remember checking out their rings when I was looking for an e-ring. I actually emailed them last night for a quote on something like this partial eternity. I ran across the sapphire and diamond band you were talking about, also, and I love it.

I know Whiteflash has made a few scattered diamond bands for PSrs lately, they could probably do one with diamond and aqua, but I have no idea what the price would be.
 
Thanks, MustangGal. I'll check out WF.

Sera, that Beverley K IS beautiful, and it's definitely a possibility. Topazery has one in a size 6 for $795.

I love this Beverly K aquamarine and diamond band from Pearlman''s. There are .06ct diamonds and .14 aquamarine... so not equal, but so pretty.
OMG! That is soooooo beautiful! That one gets my vote

I love it too, but it''s more than I can afford right now...

. Otherwise I''d get it in a heartbeat. If any of you want to grab it though, it''s here: Topazery.com Size 6 for $795. In other news, I got a very reasonable quote back from Green Lake on a simpler partial eternity with 4 aquas and 3 diamonds (all 3 pointers) with milgrain. I just need to be sneaky and find out her ring size, and then I''m going to order it. I''ll keep this thread updated with progress. I''m excited, since this will be my first major "gift" jewelry purchase.
 
Update: I placed the order for the band with Greenlake Jewelers yesterday! Should take about 5 weeks, just in time for Christmas. I ordered the following:

14k white gold band, 3mm wide, size 8. It''s a partial eternity band. It will have 4 aquas alternating with three diamonds, all 2mm dia., bead set. Surrounding the stones will be a milgrain border with a slight chevron at the end. Basically a thinner version of the pic I posted further up the thread.
I can''t wait to see it. I''m also saving up to have them set a light blue sapphire I''ve owned for a while into a pendant, if all goes well with this project!
 
Thanks for the update. Looking forward to seeing the pictures.

Aqua is my birthstone, and I would really like a beautiful birthstone ring. So, these kinds of projects hold a special interest for me.
 
The Beverley K ring is just beautiful, but I can''t wait to see your new band!
 
Well, that was super fast! I don''t have the ring yet, but they called today to tell me it was ready and that they would send it out on Monday.
