WOW! i absolutely love asschergirls ring, thanks for posting it gypsy. it IS the perfect pave band- sparkly but perfectly compliments the asscher in the center. very simple and clean. asschergirl- can you give me some specific details about your ring?

i cant wait to go check out rings in person. soooo amazing!

Thanks Diana!

The setting is by Gabriel & Co, my husband purchased it at a B&M though, here''s a link to the ring https://www.desiresbymikolay.com/index.php?m=Products&e=view&id=210

We had the e-ring made by taking the band and removing 2 of the melee in the center and placing a head in there to hold the Asscher. I wanted something flush so I thought if I bought all 3 of these bands, then they would sit flush and they do. I have 2 more of this same band, one on each side of my ering.

Not sure where you''re purchasing your Asscher (Good Old Gold has awesome ones, that''s where mine is from) and I do know they carry Gabriel & Co. Good luck on your search, let me know if you have any questions.

Oops forgot some stats, each band has .40ctw, 30 stones, approx 1.6mm wide, 14kt white gold

thanks asschergirl! i love the idea of using a stacking band as your setting. i like the look of the asscher just sitting there on the band almost like the band is in the background. so simple and clean.

maybe i should just cut and paste this and send it to my boyfriend! haha!

where is good old gold? is this one store or a chain?

You''re welcome Diane!

Good Old Gold is an online retailer and they do have one B&M store in NY. I''ve just bought through them online, never visited thier store. You can find tons of info about them here on PS, a lot of PS members have purchased from them, that''s where I first found out about GOG. They have a great rep, awesome stones, and a really great trade in policy

Have fun w/ your search!
