Considering what I've garnered from your posts, it looks like you are open to some non-traditional styles. I was thinking that you could also have the u-prongs (or whatever you use) with a satin finish. I very much wish I could draw, but I was trying to design something in my head that was one long U with curly ends. Where the U would be upside down starting at the center stone, swoop down across the middle two, and then curl over the end stones. With surprise stones under the swoop for the middle stone. Sort of an abstracted version of the more delicate curls in the e-ring.

I am sure you totally have a million of your own ideas, but thinking of these are really fun!! I think that just talking about these things (and the fun that entails) is what these message boards are all about!

And my apologies, I keep thinking you are doing rose gold, not yellow gold, for some reason!

That sounds like an interesting idea!! I wish I could draw too! I would love to be able to put some ideas down on paper!

I thought it might be, since the 5 stone was made by him. I bet he is pricey though!

ETA: Here is the band. No price listed, that means $$$. lol

Yup, it was for platinum. I think he will do it in gold too, if requested. I know he has a have engraved/half pave gold band on his website.

I agree, it is beautiful. I have just been having a hard time justifying the cost.
