Hi everyone! Haven't been here in ages!!! Im happy to be back since im wondering if anyone has this moissy band? Im hoping it will go well with my 1ct cushion cut moissy (5.75) : ) this is the link to my ring...

http://www.flickr.com/photos/34700284@N08/?donelayout=1

And this is the link of the band im looking at!!!

http://www.moissaniteco.com/round-moissanite-antique-moissanite-ring-p-7007.html

Im into simplicity so my engagement ring'd setting doesnt have too much going on (other than the center stone! I still stare at it all the time and ive had it for 8 months!) So im looking for a band with a tad more detail (i love antique looking bands)Got my ring with moissaniteco.com and would like to get my band there as well since they are so great! Let me know what u think and if anyone has a pic IRL (MIKE!!??! lol) It would be much appreciated!!!

I think that would be a beautiful set! Just be sure to think about the gap/no gap thing when picking a band (some people don't mind gaps and some hate them).

We have a knife edge band that I believe looks very nice with this ring. Here is the picture



Because of the trellis style of the prongs, a lot of bands will cause gaps as they run into the prongs. The advantage of a knife edge is that the band is pretty thin where it meets the side of the solitaire. Therefore the gap is pretty small in my opinion.

I have been meaning to add this band as an optional matching band for this solitaire . . .

Now if you want a more elaborate knife edge style band we can make something like this . . .

Thank you!I was just wondering Mike...I have a band at home (yellow and white gold ring that was my grand mothers from the 40's but doesnt suit my ring) and used it to see if it would fit well with my ring and it fit nicely didnt really have any problems with the trelis prong part (wasnt a perfect fit but it was barely a problem...So I thought that maybe the ring i like from your moissanite website would fit nicely...What width is it aprox. and hows the thickness (meaning will i have the feeling that something thick is stuck between my fingers...(not sure if im explaining myself properly lol)would it be aprox the same thickness as the band on my engagement ring? Those rings are lovely!!! But i've been somewhat set on the band since before even receiving my engagemnt ring (I had already picked it out but didnt have it yet!) But Obviously you would know better than me! But i loooove it so much!!! I was just wondering how thin it is...I know it would be thin (which is what im looking for) but not sure how thick it is...Thank you so much for the help everyone! You guys are so sweet and helpful!! ; )

I like the ring that you chose - so pretty! The pave knife edge is gorgeous too. I don't think you can go wrong with either one. ;\)
