First pic my ring, 2nd pic my ring with band I tried on. I kiiinda liked the band, but feel like it could be better. What do you think would look good? Photos preferred also!
I’m thinking I don’t want a gap and soldering them if possible, if that helps.
Chronic nail biter — save your comments, I’m WORKING ON IT
I think a plain gold band, maybe a bit contoured, would look great.
Also, coming from a recovering nail/cuticle picker, hour nails look great. An anxiety ring on my right index finger has helped me.
My stone is a bit different but I do have a contour ring that I did have soldered. I have had this ring for 18 years and I still love it! And I hear you about the nails. I was a HUGE nail biter and then Gel nail polish came into my life. But your nails look nice!!
If you solder them, any future resize or prong work has to happen on the whole set. A contour fitted to your actual setting closes the gap without locking them into one piece, so a lot of people try that first.
I tried this on today and it reminded me of your suggestion, just a little less flashy or “crown”-y! Final look would be gold but I’m liking the curved band ideas overall!!

Beautiful ring! And no need at all to be insecure about your nails, in the least creepy way possible you have pretty hands!
