My E-ring Setting!

[IloveAsschers13]

Well- This was totally unexpected that I even have this! Our local Bailey, Banks, and Biddle is closing, and I have been checking every once in a while if *anything* would be in me and my BF''s price range.

This past weekend I went, (without my BF) and decided to try on this setting that I haven''t tried on yet, and I literally fell in love

with it! It looks soo good on my hand (I think) better than any ring I have tried on!

We will be going on a trip in August (to NY I think) to try and find a center stone for it.

So we aren''t engaged yet, but I''m so happy we have the setting!! It has things I knew I would like (such as the claws and the basket) and things I didn''t think I would like, such as the diamonds on the band set the way they are... but I love it!!!

The first one is a hand shot:

Here is a front view... The CTW is .55 and it''s platinum.

 

[IloveAsschers13]

Here is the side.. you can see the traps- something else I didn''t think I would like! But I looooove

 

[IloveAsschers13]

Looking down at it- see the diamond basket! and the detail...

 

[IloveAsschers13]

Finally, the side view... and you can see the claws

This is the last one, but I have MANY more, if anyone wants to see more views.

That is gorgeous!!!

 

[princessplease]

Wow, it''s so pretty! Congrats on finding a setting!

 

[IloveAsschers13]

Thanks- I thought I wanted a solitaire, with a bigger diamond, but I this look is blingier. I also made sure to ask, and it''s not a brand, just BBB''s brand... so not sure about that.

very pretty! the traps are really WOW!

 

[MichelleCarmen]

Beautiful!

It''s stunning. Just flat out stunning. Congratulations!

The setting is beautiful on your finger!

It really looks great! Such detailing! I don''t think you need to worry about it being name brand...as long as the craftsmanship is superb and you love it, that''s all that matters.
Good luck finding a stone!
Are all BBB''s closing? or just the one in your area?

 

[IloveAsschers13]

not sure! I know that some have closed in the past around my area as well, but I''m not sure whether it''s just because it wasn''t doing a lot of business in my mall. The saleswoman who helped me made it sound like not all of them were closing, but I am thinking they will eventually... in this economy anyways.

By the way, I think my ring finger size is 7.5, so I love the finger coverage on my big fingers!

Looks nice! Are you going to fit an Asscher in the center?

 

[AmberGretchen]

That looks lovely - congrats on finding your setting!

 

[IloveAsschers13]

Nope- I am thinking an OEC or an OMC if I can find one that is round enough!

Here is a better picture I took of the diamond basket.

OMG!! What a stunner!

 

[Tuckins1]

That setting is stunning!!

 

[tyty333]

Beautiful! What are the big stones on the sides? traps? moons? I cant really tell from the pics. Its really stunning
(and I love the prongs/claws)!

EDIT - just went and looked at the pics again and saw that you said they were traps - duh - ignore me

!

 

[musey]

Gorgeous - congrats!!

 

[idreamofcushions]

I am in LOVE with your setting!!! Who is it by?

 

[IloveAsschers13]

It''s just Bailey, Banks and Biddle''s design- no name. there are some markings on the inside of the ring but I''m not sure if they mean anything or are just from resizing...

Yeah the sides are traps and then those are surrounded by small RB''s. The colors are G-H- the woman was like "Wow they are Si1 and G-H''s which is REALLY good, I mean like the best.. I was like OKAY, good thing I love the setting....

Here are the traps...Major upclose and finger printy but you can see them better
