No - he actually got offered a men''s ring with a 3 ct RB in it, but he said he would never wear it (it was a family heirloom). So, his mom turned it in to a pretty pendant. Unfortunately, this was before we met, because even though the diamond was not a great cut, I would have suggested that he accept it & then recut the 3 ct diamond into a smaller, nicer stone. Still, his mom got a gorgeous pendant out of it! :)

He''s into metal work but not stones so I doubt it, but I wouldn''t be shocked if he came home with a just right, arty diamond ring. He does like Leon''s work actually and considers it to be a work of art. Leon must have a great photographer for him to say that!

Nate definitely would not wear a diamond ring. Now moi? I would. I''m waiting for the day he surprises me with a channel set band because he knows exactly what I want.

In his words : "Heck No!"

Lol, I''m glad that I get to be the only bling wearer in our relationship!

We are considering this ring. here is the description

Oro Diamante is adorned with approximately 1/2 carat total weight of baguette diamonds channel set in tasteful brushed white gold.

To our surprise it look''s soooooooooooooo awesome on his hand. He wants something not to wide. or that gets less wide on the palm side of his finger.

this one was 6MM

Chance.


BF wouldn''t be caught dead in most jewelry, let alone something that *gasp* sparkled. That''s okay, though. I''m not sure I could handle a guy with better bling than me!
This made me laugh outloud. :)
Glad I could make you smile. :)

Lauralu, that is a GORGEOUS band.

Penn, what shape stone for your band?

No, it''s not his style and he''d feel guilty that I didn''t have it.

thanks princess and gecko

He was not looking for diamonds in a band. However, this one was stunning, and handsome, loved the brushed metal.

Yes, he does. He has two. A 1/3 ct brown diamond ring with diamond side stones, and a 2 ct rough diamond tension set in Damascus steel.

He likes his bling.

at first he was adamant that his band had no bling. but after we had our rings made i managed to persuade him to add in sapphires (his fav) and diamonds (my fav) in his band - and after we received it he actually tells me ''i love my sparklies!''

Yep, Ken has diamonds in his wedding ring and two other really nice diamond rings. He wears his Rolex every day and it has diamonds in the dial.

He doesn''t wear the two diamond rings very often, but will wear them when we go to Vegas....he likes to look like a high roller...LOL!

No D wouldn''t. I wanted to get a hidden diamond in his wedding band and he thought that was a crazy idea!

Yes. His WB has 6 .05ct diamonds. It''s still elegant and manly and it suits him.

No. He wanted simple and unadorned for his band.

HTB might get some small diamonds in his wedding band, but if you mean as in a solitaire or something like that, he would never wear it! -Although sometimes he puts my e-ring on his pinky finger for fun hehe.

FI would in a heartbeat! That''s his preference. Something subtle and classy.

I love the ring you''re considering for your husband, Laurelau... it looks just perfect!

My husband lost his original band a couple of weeks into our marriage *gasp!!*

It is our fifth anniversary today, I wanted to replace it - but he flatly refused.

In fact, he told me that if I ever bought any jewellery for him, he would throw it over the back fence into the neighbour''s yard!!!!

So I guess that''s a ''no'' then, he won''t wear diamonds!

Yep. He had a .10 ct stone set in his wedding band. He said if I get diamonds, then so does he. (I don''t think he would wear any other stones though, just that one in his wb)

Nate definitely would not wear a diamond ring. Now moi? I would. I''m waiting for the day he surprises me with a channel set band because he knows exactly what I want.

My former instructor''s partner gave him the most incredible 3.3ct rb in a custom plat setting.. I had serious ring envy. lol It was stunning. I should have taken photos.


Penn, how wide do you want your band to be? What shape diamonds? *** I just read your answer. lol

Silly me!

Have you ever seen Elton John''s ring? It''s like a custom designed Chopard creation. I''m not in love with it because it''s pretty big, but the diamonds are set and I like that about it. I also like David Beckham''s ring.


My current ring is 6mm (a plain Lucida band) and I like the width of it. I have small hands so I wouldn''t want something huge.

Did you''re friends ring look feminine?

My husband just wanted a plain tungsten band, it looks good on his hand. But I would love to sneak a little diamond into it like Marian had done to her husbands.
