I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect band to go with my 3 stone old cut ring.

I don’t mind either of these bands with it, but am wondering which one looks better or should I keep looking?

Could you keep both? They give off different styles which in my view both work well. The old miners is more understated, and the bigger marquise band brings out the shape of the side pears a little bit. Just my opinion.

Also, what an amazing ring! What is the color of your center stone? It looks fancy greenish-yellow and awesome!

First one for me too, the second one does not look like a good pairing for me personally.

Thank you! It is a fancy intense greenish yellow OMC with strong green fluor. Also thanks for your opinion on the bands.

Unpopular opinion I guess but I like the second one better.

The first. The second does not flow to me personally.

Thank you for your opinion, not unpopular, just your own-I love that band also or else I wouldn't have purchased it :)

Thank you, I have been pondering resetting her and pears together into a different style but am not sure what I would want yet. Any suggestions?

Oh a possible reset, that’s exciting! I am so not the person to ask though, not a creative bone here. I would ask for ideas in Rocky Talk, there are some great thinkers over there, whatever you do, you can’t really go wrong with those diamonds.

1st one completes it, with the tall diamonds, & looks classy. The 2nd one needs to be paired with a different style IMHO.

I also like #1 more - it compliments your ring and my eyes are able to focus on your 3-stone, with your beautiful center stone being the main star. I feel like there’s a lot going on in #2 and would like it more if the marquise shapes were smaller.

I am just in the beginning thoughts on a reset, I actually liked the setting more than I thought I would when I bought it so have left it as is-there are two cute little old cuts on either side of the pears. My other decision is if I want to leave the center stone set in Plat vs YG because I do not know if the neon-ness(is that even a word) would clash with YG! Time will tell I guess what I do with her :)

The first band looks very complimentary to my eyes.
