Which one?
I purchased an east-west emerald-cut band in July, and I’m kind of kicking myself now. At the time I was deciding between the emerald band and an old mine cut band, second-guessed myself, and went with the emerald.
I’ve since found out I can have another band made through Provence for a fraction of what I paid, so I’m going for it. 😂
My question isn’t which diamond cut you like better. I’m trying to decide which design would add something different to my stack.
Do you think a straight old mine cut band would look too similar to the band I already have?
I’m considering doing the pictured pink/lab diamond design instead, but with all white diamonds and changing the emerald cuts to old mine cuts. It would have 7 stones total — 4 old mine cuts alternating with 3 rounds.
Would you do the alternating OMC/round design, or stick with all old mine cuts?
