I am considering buying two infinity bands. I was think about going with irradiated pink diamonds or pink sapphires. What do you guys think? What would look best? What color gold should I have it set on?

I want them for my e ring but most of the time I know ill wear them without it.

Some pics would be great!!!!!!!


Thanks =)

I think it depends what colour pink you want. Irradiated pinks are a true pink, kind of vibrant. If that is the pink you are going for I would get the diamonds because they will sparkle more than sapphire. However, if youa re looking for a softer pink, I would go sapphire.

As for better, I like both rose gold and white metal with pink stones. But I also tend to like more muted colours of stones when setting with rose gold. So if I was going with the irraduated, I might choose a white metal, because those stones don't need any help looking pinker, and the contrast between the cool tone metal and the pink would be pretty.

Its really a personal choice but if it were me, I would pick pink diamonds because they sparkle more then sapphires.

I vote for pink diamonds

I heart me some colored diamonds.

Here's a video of a pink sapphire band in rose gold. It may not be the style you're looking for, but it will give you a good idea of what the colors look like together.

And, conversely, a pink diamond band in rose gold from DBL:

The colour of those pink diamonds is nothing like irradiated pink though. That colour in the DBL band could be matched with sapphire, as many shades are available, but irradiated pinks do not look like that.

I agree, in most cases. Irradiated pink is pretty vivid, but you can get some fairly light ones from Stuller.

Good to know, thanks Mrs Mike.
