So beautiful, my last thing on my bling wishlist is a five stone rhr. Your ring size is the same as mine so it is nice to see one in that carat weight on.

Here are some of the profile shots of the trellis setting. The stones sit really low which I like!

P.S.-I don't have my mom's ring yet, so no comparison of the RB 5-stone and the AVR yet...sorry.

Sorry for the delay, but I finally asked my mom to borrow her IDJ band so that I could do some side-by-side comparisons. I wish I could take better photos, but I hope the photos show the big difference as to what I see by eye. Both rings are lovely but they stones do look very different. The modern cut stones appear much more "dark" to me due to the arrows where the AVR face up much more "white" overall. When my mom saw my ring, her comment was that the stones looked like "crystals" due to their brilliance even though the color of the stones in the two rings are the same. Unfortunately, with the naked eye, you can't appreciate the faceting of the AVR since the stones are fairly small but by my favorite part of the AVR is its fire...the colors it shoots off in dim lights is lovely not to mention what it does in certain overhead lighting. Both stones have comparable scintillation outdoors.

One thing I noticed by taking the photos is that the trellis setting has the stones touching side-by-side whereas the IDJ setting has gaps. I knew that Iiked the look of the trellis more but couldn't figure out why until the photos showed the gap in the IDJ setting closeup. The seamlessless of the stones is really nice and it really looks like a band of sparkles :)! Can you tell I'm happy with my ring??? :wink2:

Wow, I missed this too! Don't know how that happened, but MrsM, your ring is amazing. I love the comparison shots. I really love round heart and arrows stones, but those avr's blow me away! Love love love. Congratulations, it is gorgeous!

I am so glad this thread got bumped because this band is even more show-stopping than I remembered! It is insanely perfect. MrsM, are you wearing it on your left hand as pictured? Do you wear a ring on your right hand? I am just curious because this band is so amazing, it can be worn alone, but I would feel sorry for my other rings!

I had the same thought :cheeky:

Wow I love this ring and I love the comparison that you did. I did like that extra detail where you said that the AVR ring is more white and the traditional round one seems to have darker spots due to the arrows.

Can I ask a question? If someone is looking at your hand from a distance, about 5-8 feet away, which 5 stone ring (yours or your mom's) will look more sparkly?
