Whiteflash Half Bezel wedding band

[C.P.]

Does anyone have Whiteflash's half bezel wedding band that could post pictures for me? Or if anyone even has anything similar, I'd love to see how it looks on the hand.

I'm considering this band to go with the Keystone setting. I've noticed that most people tend to go with a full bezel diamond band along the lines of the Danielle or Tiffany Jazz as opposed to a semi-bezel band. Any ideas why that might be so?

Hmm, I'm getting a semi-bezel ring e-ring too but don't really like that semi-bezel band. It seems silly to me to semi-bezel such small diamonds, not sure why I feel that way. I'd probably get a Danielle/Jazz style when my time comes.

Well, the Danielle has 1 pointers in a 2mm band, whereas the half bezel has 4.5 pointers in a 3.4, so the size is one significant difference between the two. I think stones larger than 1 pt may be preferable, but I do wonder if the half bezel band might be a little too wide to complement a semi-bezel setting well. It's hard to guess without a handshot. The angle of the whiteflash pictures are not the most helpful IMO.

oh gotcha. Yeah, definitely no semi-bezel for me then. My e-ring is already 4.3mm wide. I'm not sure I could rock nearly 8mm on my little hands!

I have the Keystone setting and wear it with the Tiffany Jazz wedding band, you can see it in my avatar. I had the Tiffany Jazz band before I reset my engagement ring stone into the Keystone, so I wasn't looking to change wedding bands at that point. I find that the two go pretty nicely together without being too matchy. The half bezel wedding band you posted looks nice, but the reasons I wouldn't choose that one is that I prefer full eternities, and second from the pictures the profile of that band seems to be a little high and might possible cover up the view of your center stone. I hope I am making sense. The Keystone setting results in your center stone sitting fairly low, so if you enjoy seeing the culet of your diamond and want a more *open* view of your center stone the profile of the wedding band is something to keep in mind.

You totally could!

That is a great point. Their relative height hadn't occurred to me, but I definitely wouldn't want anything covering the culet.
