{"product_id":"baguette-gemstone-wide-band-ring","title":"Baguette Gemstone Ring on a Wide 18K Gold Plated Band","description":"\u003cp\u003eOne slim rectangle of color, laid straight across a wide polished band: this baguette ring is all clean lines. The stone is a 6 by 4 mm baguette, roughly a quarter inch long, in hessonite garnet, amethyst or citrine, and the band is broad enough that the polished metal does as much work as the stone does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLow, notched setting.\u003c\/strong\u003e The baguette sits down in a notch cut into the band rather than up on prongs, so nothing hooks a knit or a coat lining.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree birthstone colors.\u003c\/strong\u003e Garnet is the birthstone for January, amethyst for February and citrine for November.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeighty without bulk.\u003c\/strong\u003e About 4.3 grams (0.15 oz), so the band feels substantial on the finger and still slides under a glove.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizes 5 to 7.\u003c\/strong\u003e Desiregem makes it in US ring sizes 5, 6 and 7.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBaguette Ring on a Wide Band\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA baguette ring usually means a row of tiny diamond rectangles on a wedding band. This one takes a single colored baguette and lets a wide band frame it, which reads modern and a little architectural. In the photographs the band is about as wide as the stone is long, with a high polish on every surface. Desiregem lists the metal as 18K gold plated brass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stone runs across the finger, not along it, so it \u003cstrong\u003eshows its full length every time your hand is flat on a table\u003c\/strong\u003e or wrapped around a cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGarnet, Amethyst or Citrine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesiregem names the three stones as hessonite garnet, amethyst and citrine. Hessonite is the warm member of the garnet family, a cinnamon to brick red that looks almost brown in low light and glows orange in the sun. Amethyst is violet quartz and the one cool color here, so it gives the most contrast against the warm plating. Citrine is honey to orange-yellow quartz and blends closest with the band, which makes it the subtle pick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the ring is a birthday present, the month decides it for you. If it is for you, hold your hand next to the sleeve you wear most: \u003cstrong\u003ewarm stones disappear into camel and rust, cool amethyst stands out against them\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWide Band Ring Fit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA wide band ring fits tighter than a thin one at the same number, because more metal sits against the skin and has to pass over the knuckle. Fingers also swell in hot weather and as the day goes on. Measure in the evening, and if your measurement falls between two sizes, choose the bigger one. The size run tops out at 7, so this band is made for slimmer fingers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWearing a Baguette Band Daily\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich finger suits a wide band ring?\u003c\/strong\u003e The middle or index finger, where the band has space on either side. On the ring finger next to an engagement ring a wide band can crowd the setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan a wide band anchor a stack?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is the natural center. Put one thin plain band on each side and keep the three in the same metal color so the baguette stays the focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat keeps the stone bright?\u003c\/strong\u003e Wipe it with a dry microfiber cloth. Lotion collects in the corners of a notched setting, so check them after a hand cream day. Plating is a thin layer over the brass, so take the ring off for showers, swimming and hand washing, let lotion and perfume dry before it goes back on, and store it on its own in a dry pouch.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Desiregem","offers":[{"title":"Hessonite Garnet \/ 5","offer_id":67639412130093,"sku":"TGR1045_A_5","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hessonite Garnet \/ 6","offer_id":67639414096173,"sku":"TGR1045_A_6","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hessonite Garnet \/ 7","offer_id":67639414128941,"sku":"TGR1045_A_7","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Amethyst \/ 5","offer_id":67639414161709,"sku":"TGR1045_B_5","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Amethyst \/ 6","offer_id":67639414194477,"sku":"TGR1045_B_6","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Amethyst \/ 7","offer_id":67639414227245,"sku":"TGR1045_B_7","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Citrine \/ 5","offer_id":67639414260013,"sku":"TGR1045_C_5","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Citrine \/ 6","offer_id":67639414292781,"sku":"TGR1045_C_6","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Citrine \/ 7","offer_id":67639414325549,"sku":"TGR1045_C_7","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0667\/4553\/2717\/files\/desiregem-baguette-gemstone-wide-band-ring-1.jpg?v=1791916488","url":"https:\/\/aysire.com\/products\/baguette-gemstone-wide-band-ring","provider":"Aysire","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
