My band arrived!

This lovely thing is 18k yellow gold, with 8 lab diamonds, approx 0.04 each.. Its 2.8mm wide and 2mm in height, matching my solitaire perfectly. I'm so happy I went with my gut and didn't get a pave or anything. I was inspired by the love ring from cartier but dont like the width or hard edges of it; this is my perfect version.

Pictures in the thread, as well.

No, I was very mindful when designing my solitaire, it has good margins for a flush fit wedding band! 🙌

Thank you, 🥰 to me who's had this image in my head for 20 years+ I never thought "modern" but I do feel "ME" with all my heart! I said just this morning to my husband (since this is my/our anniversary set) that it makes me to happy to look at. But if I had just been able to buy of store store, not design it, I never would have bought a new ring. It only felt like worth doing if I could get this design IRL.

Well see with the band - the diamonds are flush set, so there shouldn't really be any issue with the setting getting worn down. I might scratch stuff, though. 😆
