    So  I have an emerald cut solitaire and have fallen in love with the art nouveau openwork wedding bands like this:  Anyone with an openwork wedding band? Pics Please!! :  wedding openwork weddingband 1

      But I am having a hard time imagining(and also finding in person) a wedding band like this with a ring.  If you have an openwork weddingband would you please post it?

    @Miss Sydney: I think it was Octopus! She ended up getting one custom made and it didn't turn out how she wanted if I remember rightly. But she had some very pretty design ideas.

     

    I would love a ring like this, but as you say, I've never seen one in person. I don't even know what keywords to use to search for one online. Let me know if you find something.

    I did see Octopus' blog on these kinds of rings.  Her blog actually led me to Fay Cullen who designs the ring above!  I googled openwork wedding bands, art nouveau and some popped up but I have yet to see any in person.  They are beautiful but I wonder how they will look with a solitaire.

    @baletrina:

     

    Baletrina, what did you end up doing for your wedding band? I also have an Emerald cut solitaire and would love to see a pic!

     

    Thanks!

    @CosmoPip: I am actually waiting on an Ebay seller to send me a pic of a solitaire with one of the bands. :)  Found the same band on Ebay for half the price of Fay Cullen.  The one thing I am thinking of though is that the band may be pretty wide.  Didn't think of that till we went in to our jeweler to discuss bands.  I will post an update soon.
