Hello all,

My boyfriend is getting ready to propose to me and has told me I am free to choose any ring that catches my eye. Now , after spending months reading and lurking around the forums I've settled on the Micropave Cathedral ring - 3 row , it's just so pretty I catch my breath looking at forum pictures of it but there is just one problem , I am not fond of the two metal choices for it. I detest white gold and I don't want Platinum...I really want this ring cast in Palladium , is that possible ? I mean for a fee or something can it be done ? Any help / info / answers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks ladies and gents


Side note : I plan to put a 2 carat asha princess in there

I am interested in purchasing the micropave cathedral 3 row ring but it is only offered in white gold or platinum...is it possible to get it in Palladium ? And if so what would the price be for that ?

Thanks

Ok I've done a little digging around and something seems to confuse me. I came across two listings for the micropave 3 row cathedral ring. 1 of them only comes in white gold and plat the other actually has the option for Palladium they are the exact same ring by looks (I'm not s jeweler so it looks the same to me) am I missing something here ?

Ring 1 with NO palladium option:

This one HAS the palladium option:

while similar, they're not the same.

the Timeless 3 row Micropave Cathedral Ring has ~.57ctw and the Micropave Cathedral ring - 3 row (3mm) micropave has ~.38ctw

wink

is it possible to get the micro pave with .38 cw in palladium ? I had my heart set on that. It's not offered as an option but who knows maybe it can be custom made that way.
