Question 1

Does my wedding band have to match my engagement ring?

Accepted Answer

No. Many women choose a band designed by the same house so the two sit flush and read as a set, but mixing metals and styles is common and entirely your call. Bring the engagement ring in and we will show you both approaches on your hand.

Question 2

What is a contour or curved band?

Accepted Answer

A contour band is shaped with a curve so it nests around the center stone without leaving a gap. If your engagement ring has a low-set stone, a halo, or an unusually shaped head, a contour band is usually the cleanest solution.

Question 3

What is the difference between an eternity and a half-eternity band?

Accepted Answer

An eternity band has diamonds set all the way around, while a half-eternity sets them across the top only. Eternity bands look the same from every angle but generally cannot be resized. Half-eternity bands can be sized and cost less, which is why many customers prefer them for a ring worn every day.

Question 4

Should I wear my band above or below the engagement ring?

Accepted Answer

Tradition places the wedding band closer to the heart, so below the engagement ring, but there is no rule. What matters more is which order sits flush and comfortable, and we can show you both in about a minute.

Question 5

Can my band be resized later?

Accepted Answer

Most can, within a reasonable range. Full eternity bands are the main exception, since resizing would disrupt diamonds set all the way around. We will tell you before you buy so there are no surprises years down the road.

Question 6

What is an anniversary band?

Accepted Answer

An anniversary band is a diamond band given to mark a milestone rather than the wedding itself. Some women wear it stacked with their original set, others wear it on the right hand. It is one of the most requested anniversary gifts we sell.

Question 7

How far ahead should we shop?

Accepted Answer

Three to four months before the wedding is comfortable, since some bands need ordering and then sizing. If your date is closer, come in anyway and we will show you what is in stock that can be ready in time.
