Yellow on yellow

[carochinha]

I have a plain 14k wedding band...that is in search of a blingy mate. I love this but wonder if it''s too wow paired next to a simple band? (The pic came from another user who herself patched it from another thread - apologies I can''t give credit where it is due).

My request: yellow stones on yellow golld. Would love to see what PSers have/think!

I love the idea! Being a yellow gold girl myself, I am also looking to set my citrine asscher in buttery yellow gold. I say go for it!

Would luve to see a bigger picture of the one you posted if possible?

I think it depends on the stone and what undertones it has. I would take each stone and place it buy white gold/ silver and then yellow gold. That way you can tell what really looks good in your opinion.

Hope that helps!

well I just received a yellow gemmy, and I have an unset 18k yellow gold mount, I can look at the color and see. hopefully it won't clash.
ETA: I just took a look and ehh, I do like it however, it just seems to all blend in. What I would love to do is to separate the colors a bit and maybe add a halo of white diamonds melee to accent the yellow stone so it doesn't all blend in but just the right size to showcase the yellow gem kwim

?

It depends on which shades of yellow are we talking about, how sparkly the stone is, what are the shapes and proportions/ratios in question, size fo the stone etc. A diamond halo can help, but so can a surface finish on the yellow gold, that will make the stone more stand out and give off a different feel by a sense of texture (if that''s your thing). It also all depends on the desired style.

Larger picture as requested. Can you see this paired with a plain yg band? Perhaps a better match if the sapphire were set in plain yg?

I think it will look amazing, especially if the band is kept nicely polished and shiny

That is gorgeous!

I think you should wear a band on the other hand (if you don''t mind, of course!) and let that beauty shine alone.

WOW

That ring is truly a work of art. A plain band would look perfect with that.

 

[ma re]

Yup, plain band would be the way to go for me too, cause the one with pave might make it all feel like there''s too much going on.

 

[AustenNut]

That really is a beautiful ring!

I don''t think that a matching yellow sapphire pave band would be out of place. I also think that a simpler yellow gold band would work. But I like the idea of some carving or something on the yellow gold. Something like this or this might work well.

I think it would look great next to a plain yellow gold ring...it would allow the blingy ring to shine on it''s own.

I''m thinking something really thin...stones or no stones. I have never really cared for yellow stones until I saw this ring. Yummy.

Wowwee! I like it as is but think a plain band would work too!

That''s gorgeous, WOW!!
