Double Band Diamond Rings and Eternity Styles

Two rows of diamonds can make a ring look broader and more detailed, but several different constructions create that effect. A double row band, a split shank and two separate rings worn together should not all be described as the same thing.

Parallel Bands and Split Shanks

The square center ring in these photographs is shown with parallel diamond set bands. The side views reveal separate band lines around the finger. A split shank, by comparison, divides as it approaches the center setting. Confirm whether a photographed design is one ring, a connected set or separate pieces.

Does It Have a Full Eternity Band?

Full eternity means stones continue around the whole band. Diamond shoulders or two rows across the top do not establish that construction. Look underneath the finger and ask where the stones stop.

The cushion shaped halo ring also retained in this article is a different design from the square center example. Comparing both illustrates how the center, halo and band can create width in different ways.

Try the Complete Arrangement

Check the combined width with your fingers relaxed and bent. Look for contact between neighboring stones, prongs and bands, and ask whether a spacer or different pairing would improve the fit.

Confirm the price and carat weight for each piece, rather than assuming a photograph includes every pictured band in one purchase. Resizing options depend on the construction and extent of the stone setting. These original images remain an archive of the designs, not a current stock list.
