What to do? Eternity or 5/7 stone????

[maiyavel]

Hi everyone!
So recently I have been looking to upgrade my eternity band from 1.86tw to 2.5-3.0cttw... At first I thought that the 3ct would be too much (15point stones) and today I actually stopped into a local B&M to try on a few different sizes. I thought I had been a hardcore eternity lover until I tried on a 5 stone band with 20 point stones and now I don''t know what to do! I took a few photos, hopefully I can upload them... My center stone is a 2.34 FVS1 size 6.5... What do I do??

another on my finger... I thought this would be too much but it quickly felt very nice!

 

[marcy]

I think it is gorgeous and they look wonderful together.

this one is of both size bands... the one on top is 15point stones (to be in eternity) and the bottom is the 20 point for either 5 stone or 7 stone...I think an eternity with 20pointers would be out of the budget... or too much??

this last one is a Sasha Primak eternity with 15point stones... a bit blurry...

 

[maiyavel]

I think so too... thanks! ugh... now what to do?

go for a 5-stone with .25ct

they look to die for and your ering is stunning

i love the 20 points in five stone as pictured, it looks to complement your ering and the width looks perfect.

Ditto... and you don''t need to worry about damaging the stones on the underside of the eternity! O live 5 stone rings!

Thanks everyone... I''ve been emailing with Lesley about this project, and she is a serious SAINT dealing with all of my questions!!! I think I''m going to go back and visit the 5 stone again... so it doesn''t look like I''ll need 7 stones??

5-stone, 5-stone, 5-stone! with 25 or 30 pointers. I love eternity bands also, but something about the 5-stone makes a statement.

25 or 30 huh? I''ll have to try that one on and see!!

 

[AprilBaby]

I prefer the 5 stone with your ring. It looks gorgeous!

 

[ImpatientOne]

I have a 5 stone with 20 pointers in a size 6 and absolutely LOVE it! I thought about an eternity band, but didn''t want to have to worry about damaging the stones on the bottom, plus with a 5 stone I could go with bigger diamonds

 

[tyty333]

I love the 5 stone with the bigger diamonds. Your ering can handle it!

Thanks everyone! I''m really liking the 5 stone too, I think I''m going to go visit it again so that I can get my order in to Lesley at BGD... is there much visual difference between .20 and .25 stones?
