Hello!
I am in need of some opinions on my wax mold! I have been in the process of creating a custom engagement ring here in CA for the past two months and I need some opinions on the picture of my 2nd wax mold. My designer is already making some changes to the gallery so this is not the final mold, but I would like some opinions on the size of the halo before she makes the changes in the CAD and makes another mold. I am having a hard time grasping how closely the wax mold will look size wise to the actual ring. I guess I am concerned that the halo overpowers the center stone. It is a 3.52 OEC and my finger size is 5.25. Will the actual ring with the metal look smaller than it does right now? I am using 18k white gold and I will have milgrain on all the edges. The way it looks now it almost looks like the ring is going to be as wide as my finger.... will that look bad????
Also what do you guys thinks of the band width? Right now she has it at 3mm. Should I go a little bit smaller? I am going to have an eternity band on either side.
Thank you so much!!!! Alison
