Help me pick a 50th birthday gift

[Taylorbug!]

I am trying to decide on a 50th birthday gift and the 3 options are approximatley the same price. Which would you choose, and why?
I am really leaning toward a 5 stone band to represent the 50th birthday. Suggestions welcome.

 

[LoveMunkie]

What are the other two options?

 

[Taylorbug!]

options....darn, they are in the wrong order. But I have each numbered to match the poll.

 

[luckky]

I vote for #3 a big fan of pink and those look so yummy although can't go wrong either one of 3 choices...Cheer!

 

[stargurl78]

Definitely the 5-stone in pink!

 

[ChloeTheGreat]

I think the 5-stone in pink would be beautiful and unique. Looking forward to pics of whatever you decide on!

 

[bright ice]

I vote for the 5-stone pink!

 

[marcy]

Okay I admit up front I am a pink person but I still voted for the 5 stone pink band. They would all be pretty.

 

[lovemybling]

Another vote for the 5 stone pink band here. Cannot wait to see it

I love them all but my choice would be: 1) the pink five stone. Pinks are rare and you won't see a lot of bands like that out in the
world or among people you know.

2) the ruby and diamond band. I love the band and rubies

3) lastly the three stone with white diamonds.

Now you could mix the pinks and the whites....

My hesitation is that 5 6-pointers is not going to cover the top of your finger. What kind of setting would it have?

DS...good point. I haven't really decided on a setting. What would you suggest for maximum finger coverage?

 

[diamondseeker2006]

I think you'd need about 9-11 six-pointers. I have a band of 7 ten-pointers and that looks good so I think you need more than 7 if you go with 6 pointers. I think you could have the diamonds bead-set in the band and have milgrain and engraving and maybe get by with fewer stones. I just don't think a prong-set style will look good with 5 6-pointers.

 

[rosetta]

i agree with diamond seeker

can you get more pink stones? coz i vote pink too!

 

[tyty333]

I love all your choices. My 50th is also coming up and I've been trying to decide what to get. If I had your choices
I would go with the pink diamonds. Have you considered doing an alternating pink/white diamond ring? I think
that would show off the pink really nicely.

My second choice would be the ruby/diamond ring.

 

[Head-in-the-clouds]

I agree with Rosetta and DS. The pink diamonds are incredible and my favorite my pick, just not sure about the fingers coverage you will get from these. I have a size 5 finger and 6pt eternity band and need 9 x 6pt diamonds to cover my finger.

I hope you can find a way to make these pinkies work for you though because they are beautiful!

 

[Ninama]

Are the pinks too small to set etoile-style in rose gold? With just 5, you'd probably need those 'inside' beads to keep them oriented on the top side...

Or a thin pink band with the pinks separated? Or maybe putting them in a marquise-shaped setting to give them more width?

 

[dentymarisol]

5 stone pink diamond band with 6 pt stones

 

[Taylorbug!]

Thanks for all the suggestions and comments. While searching for 5 stones rings, I came across this 5 stone bar set with .25ctw. What do you think? Would the pinks work in this type setting to give me more finger coverage?

or maybe something like these?

This. It would be so special and I love the fact that not everyone would have one. Those pinks are yummy!!!!!!!

 

[diamondringlover]

I gotta go with the majority the pink diamonds even though i love the ruby and diamond eternity as well! I think the pink diamonds in the bar setting would look pretty good, my 5 stone is bar set and it kinda of "spreads" the diamonds out for a little more coverage.

 

[tyty333]

Have you looked at any single shared prong bands? They seem to sort of spread the diamonds out too. I'll see if I can find
one to post.

I really wanted the pink, but as some of you had posted and the vendor agreed, I would need 10 pinks to give me the finger coverage, and at the moment, that is OUT of budget. So I have decided to make a different purchase. I will be getting 3 stones to make a 3 stone ring. .46 F/VS .45 I/VS .45 F/VS....(transitional and OEC ) I am soooooo excited...

 

[Christina...]

It's unanimous, I vote for pink too! I liked the idea of alternating the pinks with whites and maybe doing a bar setting for more finger coverage?? love pink pink pink!!! Happy 50th too btw!
