Which do you like better?

[asscherisme]

I have my stone in a temp setting.

The first picture is with my eternity band (channel set)

The second picture is with my 5 stone ring that I usually wear on my right hand. I'm liking how it looks with my stone but can't decide if its too much bling.

The stone is 1.63ct

The eternity band is around 2.5ct (can't remember exact stats)

The 5 stone ring is 1.25ct, .25 each stone.

Which do you like better?

edited to add, I just noticed water droplets on my hand. I had just cleaned my ring

with 5 stone ring:

The thing I'm worried about with the 5 stone ring is the rubbing of the diamonds on the head if I decide to stay with a solitaire.

Also, not crazy about the bar setting on the 5 stone. I would prefer prong set but its in a nice heavy platinum setting and I can't justify trashing the setting. It was a gift from my husband so its sentimenal and I have no plans on resetting.

It seems to go better with the channel set band. The bar set 5 stone breaks the flow since the bars are vertical. The 5 large diamonds are very sparkly and make a great statement though!

I''m not a fan of channel set bands, so I choose #2.....

 

[diamondringlover]

I like them both, but I like the 5 stone the best

A third choice, with my plain platinum band

Plain!

 

[thumbelina]

I vote for 5 stone !

 

[erica k]

honestly, i prefer the plain platinum band. i feel like the size of the stones and bar-setting of the five-stone competes with your beautiful stone. i don''t think the channel set band works with your temporary setting, but i think it fits better in terms of proportions.

i really love the simplicity of the plain band, however.

I like the 5 stone ring better myself, definitely not "too much bling". The dome shape on the bars matches the dome of the ering better. While the channel band matches nicely (width wise) it is a bit flat in comparison. Hope that makes sense! They are all very beautiful!

How about the 5 stone band with the plain band so it doesn''t bump up against the solitaire?

 

[NYCsparkle]

i''m loving that 5 stone...its sooooo SWEET!!! and as for too much bling....never!!!!

not that i''m instigating

 

[Fly Girl]

My preferences, in order, are plain, channel, then the 5-stone.

Why not keep all 3 and wear whatever you prefer on a particular day? Personally, I would wear either the plain or channel on the left hand, and that beautiful 5-stone on my right.

 

[Po10472]

never too much bling - I vote the 5-stone. you could always dilute it with the plain band inbetween, what does that look like?

 

[Catmom]

I also like the 5 stone the best. I don''t think it''s too much bling at all!

 

[Jenn5504]

I like the 5 stone and the plain band (yeah, leave it to me, the most bling and the zero *bling* tie.......). I''m not a fan of the channel set band myself. I like the idea of having the 5 stone and plain to have options.

 

[Diamond*Dana]

I like it with the plain band first, then the channel set eternity. I am not liking it with the 5 stone, they seem to compete with eachother.

 

[sera]

I am totally into having mucho bling, but I gotta admit it looks best with the plain band. You could always wear a blingy band as a RHR.

 

[LadyAmythyst69]

I think the 5 stone looks great with it. 2nd best is the plain band.

 

[chiquitapet]

The plain band looks best.

 

[iheartscience]

Another vote for the plain band! I think the 5 stone competes too much and I''m not crazy about the bars with the e-ring. The channel set is better, but the plain band really does look perfect!
