My engagement ring is a palladium three stone ring that was put together by my fiance, his dad and his step mother. There are two sapphires, 1/2 carat each on each side of my diamond which is also 1/2 carat. My engagement ring means a lot as the sapphires come from his step mother's family and have been passed down several generations and the diamond is from his mother's wedding ring (she passed away when he was 12).
I want to make the whole thing stand out… My soon to be step mother in law suggested a pave setting band on each side of my engagement ring as wedding bands.. But I don't know what would look better. Bands with sapphires and diamonds or just diamonds.. Please give an opinion.
No rude comments.
I Am Meg- Exactly I want the bands to make the ring really stand out!
Forgot to mention, sorry, I don't like channel set. I prefer the pave bands…
chine- the sapphires are family heirlooms, they are so dark they're almost black but when they hit the light right they are a gorgeous dark blue…
FYI- not giving anyone thumbs down as this is opinion only. So if you got one, sorry, it wasn't me.
I think diamonds only on the bands will make the heirloom saphires stand out. They will seem very dignified being the only saphires on your hand, but may seem a little less obvious if amongst other, not so important saphires! Does that make sense? Think of a blonde in a room of brunettes as opposed to a room of blondes and brunettes.
