#JOTW Rose gold wedding band with flush-set EW baguette

[cartoonsuperheroes]

Lurker coming out to post.. our wedding rings are (or must be) almost ready! Our jeweler hasn't contacted us to come in yet but I saw a photo he posted on his social media. I don't want to pester him about them just yet because he knows we're not in a rush at all and might have some finishing touches but I'm so excited to see it!!! Apologies for the blurry pic, it's all he posted.



Some background: I didn't want an engagement ring, just a lovely and well-made wedding ring that would be unique and able to stand on its own yet somehow still very classic. I saw this east-west baguette/emerald design on PS and fell in love! Annoyingly I can't find the thread I saw any more but it's stuck in my mind.
The band is just over 2.5mm wide because that's the width of the stone. I can't remember the exact stone specs - it was one he happened to have on hand that was exactly the proportions I was after - but I think it was around F/G and VVS/eye clean VS1.

In particular I'm really excited about the rose gold. I know it's quite trendy right now but my parents happen to have rose gold rings so I've always been drawn to it as it looks good on our skin tone, and my parents' rings have seemed pretty classic to me for the 30 years they've had them!

What a beautiful band!!!
In my view Rose gold has been a classic for a long time and will always be. Looking forward to see your handshots.

Your wedding band is so elegant and classy - what a wonderful choice! I hope you will post a hand shot for us to see.

Thank you everyone, I really appreciate the compliments! Especially since at one point I was very much stuck between this design and a shared prong half-eternity - your comments have cemented that the design I went with definitely gives the kind of look I was going for. Hopefully will be able to come back with hand shots soon

[CRYSTAL24K]

Beautiful rings! I can't wait to see hand shots!

 

[Rockinruby]

Pretty! Hope you post some more photos.

Hand shots!!!

Sorry they're not the best quality, just shot on a phone excitedly in the shop and then the ring won't actually be in my possession for a month and a bit so these are the only hand shots I've got... anyway, without further ado!! Sorry about the sideways ones, I don't know why they uploaded like that!

Another shot from the jeweler:



Hand:







It's about 2.5mm wide at the top on a size 5ish finger. Overall it's a little thinner and daintier than I was expecting even though I knew what the measurements were going to be - I guess I didn't realise how small that was until I saw it in person. But I love it - not complaining! You can see in the last pic that it has good height/presence at the top but tapers away to be comfortable between the fingers, which I really like. I also love the rose gold alloy - perfect balance of pink/peach for me without resembling yellow gold too closely like some alloys can.

More hand shots! We went in to add a brushed finish to FH's ring and I was able to spend a little more time with mine

Argh i don't know why the photos randomly come up sideways though..

 

[Sundial]

Thanks so much for coming back with hand shots. Your wedding band is absolutely exquisite on your lovely hand!!!
