I'm about to order my new eternity band but would like some final thoughts on the stone size. I'm planning on 10-pointers (pictured at bottom). I know many people like to keep wedding bands very minimalistic for a three-stone rings but I like a little bit of a more substantial band. I like the 10s but wonder if maybe I should go down a hair to 9-pointers. The smallest size I would really want to go would be 8-pointers.

First, pictures of my current set:

What do you think of the stone size in the band pictured below (my ring would be full eternity). Do the 10-pointers work with my engagement ring? I highly doubt an upgrade is in my future even with IDJ's great policy becuase my husband prefers me to be happy with what I have :| . I can see myself wanting to wear the eternity ring alone down the line and the 10-pointes would be the most substantial size I think I could manage before I completely overpower my Ering.

Please help - I'm so indecisive and just want to decide and make the purchase! Thank you.

I personally like the look of the .10 pointers with your e-ring. I also wear a 3-stone with an eternity band and love the blingy look. I would recommend wearing a spacer between the rings to eliminate any damage. As well, the spacer will give some separation and definition to your e-ring. I say, go for it. :Up_to_something:
 
Go for the .10's. That size looks well proportioned to your ering but does not overwhelm it. It compliments but does not compete.
And that size will be suitable as a stand alone ring for the times you don't have your 3 stone on. I have .12's in my 1/2 eternity and I'm quite satisfied with it as a stand alone ... and I'm pretty keen on it with my ering, too! (mine came from IDJ as well and I dealt w Luann)

Agree with the spacer Farleysmom suggested. A thin .75 or 1mm would be discreet and save your ering from damage.

Looks great!
 
I like the 10 pointers
 
I think the 10 pointers look great with your 3-stone!
 
Honestly? I think they're all WAY too big. The e-ring gets swallowed and it kind of looks like the stones in the ering are smaller than they really are. I was thinking 3pts might be good. MAYBE 5pts.
 
I love the .10s! I used to have a 10 pointer eternity from IDJ and it made a beautiful stand alone ring too.
 
Thank you all for your feedback! I just pulled the trigger and ordered the band in 10-pointers from IDJ. They said it should be ready in about two weeks (I'll post pics when I have it). Hopefully it will look beautiful :)
