I need help finding a ring guard (custom?) Or just a band that would look good with this wedding ring. Help!?

August 13, 2009

I have a ring that is a princess cut and long baguettes on the side. Like this one but the baguettes are twice as long:

when I try on regular bands there is a gap from where the baguettes are and the band, so to me it looks funny. I was hoping they made guards for this type of ring but I haven’t been successful in finding any links. Will someone help?? Thanks in advance!!

That looks very similar to my ring. This is the band I went with

They have the curved ones as well but they weren’t lining up beside that ring so I had to go to the chevron style. You’ll have to try it on but here is the curved one

A ring guard helps with the sizing. I bought mine on ebay that just slide in the bottom. They also have plastic clear ones that snap on the band. Or you can use the gel stuff but I think that feels sorta like Jello against my finger. The metal ones are really cheap and are even sold at Walmart for like $3.

You might be able to find a "v" shaped or curved ready-made band or you might need to have one custom made. That’s the problem with buying an engagement ring that’s not a set – if you intend to wear a wedding band with it. My engagement ring is so substantial that it’s all I wear – and it’s the ring we used during the ceremony. However, this ring you showed isn’t heavy enough to be worn alone – it just looks like an engagement ring. Talk to a jeweler about this.
