I've been indecisive for about a year about the design for my wedding ring now. I won't be wearing it on the same finger as my engagement ring. I like the look of eternity bands but get really nervous about how uncomfortable they might be.

The only one I found comfortable was a low-set French pave one (Here). I like the look of this band but I hated how thick it felt on my finger when I pushed my fingers together. So I was thinking of making it set lower and having it bezel set. It's hard to see if it would be comfortable enough since it doesn't already exist.

I imagine there is still rubbing with half eternity bands? Do anniversary bands spin that much and to what degree? What do you think about 1/2 vs anniversary band with my alterations?I 'm worried about being stabbed by the marquise diamonds and I'm not sure how very low they can make it

How comfortable do you think it will be?
I only tried on the original ring for a short time and the size was too big so it was hard to telI. tried many eternity rings on, and it was the only one that felt flat and comfortable like I could forget that it is on. However, it's not really my style. I wonder if I should just give up and get this simple one. However, I prefer a 5-6mm more than a 3mm (This)

(This one matches the style of my engagement ring more but it looks impractical and so uncomfortable (Vine). My engagement ring Here)

What are your thoughts? Thanks ahead of time. The last picture is the anniversary style I think

I think the simple one you have selected is lovely. Anything with prongs is going to poke into the surrounding fingers in an eternity setting. Some people can get used to it, some cannot.

If you have your heart set on the Victorian, maybe purchase one in CZ and wear it for a while and see if you get accustom to it?
