I''m in the process of having a custom sapphire eternity band created to wear between my wedding band and e-ring. Essentially the ring will act as a spacer because my shared-prong eternity band is eating into the basket of my e-ring, thus I decided that the new ring would be channel set. I prefer square stones in channel-set rings so there is no space between stones, and this is where I''m running into trouble...
At heart, I''m a step-cut girl. Ideally I would love the sapphire eternity band to be in carre cut stones, but so far the only quote I could get in this cut is from Facets. Are there other vendors that can create a carre-cut sapphire eternity band?
Second, I''d love to hear others'' opinions on carre-cut vs. princess cut sapphires. I''m wondering if sapphires are too dark to get the full effect of a step cut, thus maybe I should go with a cut with more sparkle? While I''m not a girl who loves a lot of sparkle, I don''t want the carre-cut eternity band to look flat. I''d love to hear from anybody who has a ring with carre-cut sapphires if anybody on PS has one. Thanks!!
