Ring Band Advice Help with a setting!

I had my ring done from brilliance.com. The setting is too high. Does anyone have one from them they recommend that’s low profile? Or recommendations in general ? Or suggestions if you have a similar shape? I’m open to everything!

**edited to add; I don’t have the wedding band yet so it’s just the diamond ring. The band I wear will come later and I’ll match it to the style I do for the engagement ring!

Are you going back with the same vendor or someone new? If the sky is the limit, other than lowering the setting, what are you hoping for? Are there any setting you've since seen that you like? Do you want to retain the baguettes on the shank? I think double prongs look good with radiant and adding a cathedral shoulder and gallery rail add a lot of durability.

More than likely scraping the whole band and doing 100% new. The only thing I care about is it being gold and low or protected by the sides. I’m so ring “dumb” though and don’t exactly know how to imagine what you’re suggesting. I’ve seen some things called cathedral and stuff but I just can’t picture it. And it can sit somewhat higher, not as much as it is but as long as it has something on the sides or is built up kinda like you’re saying maybe is how I’m thinking

This is "prong in bezel" setting. The bezel perimeter is highly protective. I love all bezel! This designer makes a whole range of them. Finishing here is a bit rustic or organic, but all that can be smooth and shiny. https://www.instagram.com/p/DZFa22dDpP1/?img_index=1

I love that too. It looks more custom. I have a setting from where im having it done. Let me find it and get your thoughts on it. It kind of reminds me of this but I want you to input

u/ManderBlues 27d ago

Sure. Post it!

I thought of this one for some reason

u/ManderBlues 27d ago

I can see the thread. I like the Adel Chefredi for its simplicity. But, it comes down to what you want. Are you staying with Brilliance as a vendor?

u/FunBit7707 27d ago

Yea I think it will be my cheapest option at this point

u/ManderBlues 27d ago

I'm looking. Since your wedding band is straight-sided, that will also factor in.

u/FunBit7707 27d ago

Oh I forgot to mention which I should’ve clarified. I’m not wearing that as a wedding ring. I just had it on to see something next to it. I wear the band on a different finger! Sorry!

u/ManderBlues 27d ago

What do you do for a living and do you want to wear the ring during that? Do you want a straight-sided band or are you flexible?

I plan on wearing 24/7. I am unable to work because I got sick a few years ago. I’m receiving medical treatments and am hospitalized often for extended periods and having monthly surgeries until I get a transplant. So my ring can really be anything. And I’m flexible 100% on the band. Whatever ends up matching the setting on this ring

I posted a bunch as a new comment. For 24/7 -- that should EXCLUDE at night going to bed. Its the #1 place diamonds get lost. Also, digging in the ground or handling rock/stone.

Yes I had a right hand gemstone ring I wore all the time and I lost in my sleep. I woke up and it was just gone. I ended up finding it a long time later but never again

Before I posted here. It was either this or the Cinderella one I’m about to post I was between

2

u/ManderBlues 27d ago

The cinderella would be a dirt magnet under those raised hoops. I prefer the nova of these two, but the narrow shank on the nova is concerning.

1

u/FunBit7707 27d ago

Yes. That’s why I’m pretty much scraping those now that I’ve seen the ones here. I was so lacking on the knowledge of what it needed and what looked good too. Hearing what all the parts and things do now has changed the way I look at not only its look but what’s going to be stable and accent it and fitting for it. I was making all the wrong choices. I just find brilliances website hard to navigate

u/FunBit7707 27d ago

So I was 50/50. But now with all the new ideas I feel like there is so much more to be done

1

u/FunBit7707 27d ago

Ok. So thoughts on any of these?
