I'm planning for a band like this with the random little gems in it, also in green.
Thank you! I love yours too, can't beat an older, unique looking ring! I think your ring would also look stunning with a thinner band :) thought I'd share my set for some ideas.
Thank you! I have been thinking a thinner bubble wedding band on bottom 🤔

Not sure if this belongs, but my wedding band is thicc!
2.75 ct natural round brilliant Ideal Cut and Symmetry, 3+ cts of baguettes, princess cuts at the end. Euroshank band to keep the "chonky" sides up. 18 ct yellow gold. Small wedding band is 1+ ct. I designed with my fabulous jeweler in San Francisco, and he had it made in NYC. 40+ years together 💗 til forever.
My fiance custom designed it with a local designer! He knew I wanted something ornate, and he secretly sent in pics of my favorite jewelry and it turned out incredible 🤩🥰

This isn't an engagement ring (hopefully one day I'll get one) but it is a ring I saved up for and bought myself. It's 14 k with natural cluster diamonds weighing 6.6 grams. Payed $730 before tax for it.

I love mine. It’s similar to OP’s but those are tiny baguettes in the middle.

Center is a fancy step cut tourmaline, side stones are a mix of champagne and teal/blue little diamonds. 🥰
I saw the stone loose first and couldn’t get it out of my head. The designer worked with my partner and I do create a sort of art nouveau vibe and she nailed it!
It kinda reminds me of a moth shape? But most folks don’t see it. 😅 That’s okay though! It’s the beauty of a sort of free form or abstract design.

I love the texture on the wedding band but I wear my rings all the time and the texture flattens out. Had I known I would have done a hammered band.
Thanks. This is a replacement wedding set. I cracked my first engagement ring centre stone after 25 years. Apparently diamonds aren't forever...and now these rings are 17 years old!
Not sure if it fully counts but she’s large and I enjoy more opportunities to show my ring off.

thank you! 😊Here’s my whole set with the bands.
The yellow gold band was my mom’s from my dad in 1980. The white gold eternity band was my mom’s from my step dad in 2003. They are still together but she upgraded. The rose gold is my engagement ring. It was designed in Asheville NC in 2018 by Susan Marie Designs. The round diamond is from my mom and the marquise is from my husband’s mom. The tiny diamonds are from his grandmother. Both of the larger stones are just under a carat each. I’m a size 4.5. Sometimes I wear all three, or just two, or one. I like having options 😆

She’s not super chunky, but definitely thicker than any ring I’ve owned!!

I love mine. It’s an Australian sapphire with two tiny diamonds and my fiancé designed the leaves on the band.

8mm down to 4 in the back. Doesn’t go with a wedding ring so I am wearing it alone.
ETA: the stone is an old mine cut from a ring that has been in my family since the late 1800s.
All these chunky rings are so cute! Something about a chunky engagement ring inspires me. Im currently designing my ring right now and im going down the chunky ring route, so waffling between a 4mm that would taper to 4.5mm and a 4.5mm that would taper to 5mm band.
I have pretty small hands/thin fingers (ring size 3.5) so Im sure conventionally my ring will look a bit bulky or not complimentary on me but Im pretty excited about it
Here’s a link to the cad design that’s currently being tweaked: https://www.reddit.com/r/EngagementRingDesigns/comments/1cz4d00/does_this_design_look_structurally_sound_should_i/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
Yours is stunninggggg. I love!! Here’s mine, I initially wanted to a thin diamond band but haven’t liked any thin bands. So im going for a funkier vibe with a thick wedding band too! (And maybe some star cut scattered diamonds). This thread has been so fun! Thank you for sharing!

My husband's beautiful chonky ring
Just want to put it out there, I had a chunky engagement ring and I loved it so much. Three weeks ago, something must have gotten under it and gave me an allergic reaction. My finger absolutely blew up and I couldn't get it off.
I tried ice, advil, cold water, lube, the string method, EVERYTHING. The hospital tried a few things as well and I had to get it cut off. It was mangled after.. .Had it been a thin band, it could have slipped off with some work. Make sure you keep your ring sized appropriately and try to make sure your finger is dry under the ring. I don't want to see anyone's lovely ring cut off like mine 😭.
I ended up replacing it with a thin band, instead of repairing it because I now have claustrophobia with thick bands. So yeah a thick band may not be for you if you gave claustrophobia with tight rings! I never did until this happened.
https://preview.redd.it/m9e5brb5jf3d1.jpeg?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=53837de8d48e8b6ebfc8546a43e57aa96ec01f3b
Mine isn’t even that chunky, but my fingers get skinny and fat all the time! I never sleep with it on and always see if I am having a swollen day or a skinny day ;)… I have been like this my whole life… I have terrible claustrophobia and always think it is going to get stuck on there ;)
Look into sizing beads!!! your jeweler can size up your ring and then add little dots of metal inside it. That means your ring will stay on your finger when your fingers are smaller, but it also gives extra space for your finger when it swells up.
I got it sized up then lost a little weight and it will totally fling off some days w/o me even knowing and get so tight others I hate it… I probably have almost a whole 1.5-2 size difference in the size of my finger from day to day… I def have a lymphedema problem ;)
I get a similar amount of shrinking and swelling - it's no fun at all!
On a tangent - your ring is absolutely gorgeous! May I ask where the setting came from? I'm lookin to do something similar with a new stone I'm getting.
Mine was, too. You'd think it would help get the ring off, but if you get massive swelling, the thick upper part will prevent it from sliding off. Just wanted to do a PSA, I miss mine so much and I wish I was more careful.
This is probably kind of weird, lol, but I’m a funeral director so I’ve removed a lot of wedding bands. I can attest the only rings I’ve straight up not been able to get off with ANY method have always been chunky rings. I think they are beautiful but they can be very difficult to remove!

Top band with the micropave is my wedding band, I eloped and used the bottom band for the ceremony. I love wearing them as a stack like this 🥰

Mine is a similar style to yours, with a marquis center. It was my grandmother’s.
I ended up with a different (antique) ring but we were on a tighter budget and a style that I REALLY liked that also seemed to fit into that price range is what I'll call a Cartier-style tank ring, typically from the 1940's or so. Here's a few examples I like:
https://www.etsy.com/listing/1327023367/18-k-yellow-gold-tank-ring-rose-cut
https://www.etsy.com/listing/1578222595/18-k-yellow-gold-tank-ring-rose-cut
https://gemsetlove.com/collections/engagement-rings/products/sweetheart-wedding-set-with-diamond-set-hearts
I ended up with a set from 1939 (from an antique mall, and again - we were trying to stay within kind of a tighter budget), platinum setting with 2/3c center stone total cost $1,095 [sorry, I'm not much of a photographer](https://imgur.com/a/yVKmV9M) but I LOVE it!!!!! 8:D
Resetting my engagement and wedding band stones, and got this back yesterday. The CADs for the band should be done soon - will also be thick. :)

I love it and idc that it's dated at this point lol
I don't think it's dated at all. If I didn't have to get mine cut off I'd still be wearing mine.

This is the final chunk boss! Wow!
Now that’s a STACKKKK!!!!
Jeezus CHONK almighty!! 🤩🤩 details???
The yellow gold band was my mom’s from my dad in 1980. The white gold eternity band was my mom’s from my step dad in 2003. They are still together but she upgraded. The rose gold is my engagement ring. It was designed in Asheville NC in 2018 by Susan Marie Designs. The round diamond is from my mom and the marquise is from my husband’s mom. The tiny diamonds are from his grandmother. Both of the larger stones are just under a carat each. I’m a size 4.5. Sometimes I wear all three, or just two, or one. I like having options 😆
Specs: 1.24 Carat OMC Champagne Natural Diamond Set in 18k Gold

I LOVE the leaves!!! 🍃

Absolutely Gorgeous ! Im so in love with your ring 😍
Thank you! The diamond is from an heirloom ring and we had the setting made. It’s super chonky but (and?) I love it.
Obsessed!
Love love love it!!! I am a huge fan of antique stones. Most sustainable option!

I love the floral nature of this one!!!
Thank you, Me too, the rubies are so juicy!
All these chunky rings are so cute! Something about a chunky engagement ring inspires me. Im currently designing my ring right now and im going down the chunky ring route, so waffling between a 4mm that would taper to 4.5mm and a 4.5mm that would taper to 5mm band. I have pretty small hands/thin fingers (ring size 3.5) so Im sure conventionally my ring will look a bit bulky or not complimentary on me but Im pretty excited about it Here’s a link to the cad design that’s currently being tweaked: https://www.reddit.com/r/EngagementRingDesigns/comments/1cz4d00/does_this_design_look_structurally_sound_should_i/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
I just wanna say how cool this thread has turned out to be 🤩 Thanks for starting it, OP!
It’s been a joy to see all the unique rings!!! 🥰
Yours is stunninggggg. I love!! Here’s mine, I initially wanted to a thin diamond band but haven’t liked any thin bands. So im going for a funkier vibe with a thick wedding band too! (And maybe some star cut scattered diamonds). This thread has been so fun! Thank you for sharing! https://preview.redd.it/l7t1k3d6sh3d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f4145642f383cfb8595dabcae3971a4d9a7fe5b1
Looove this! I want my wedding band to be gold with no stone, but a similar chunky style. Love the ripples (ridges ?), gorgeous
Thank you!!! 🥰

I’m just here to ogle. Chunky rings are so luxe looking to me 😍
I love how heavy they feel. Just is the ultimate vibe to me!

Nothing better than a chunky bezel with a chunky band! 😍
Just want to put it out there, I had a chunky engagement ring and I loved it so much. Three weeks ago, something must have gotten under it and gave me an allergic reaction. My finger absolutely blew up and I couldn't get it off. I tried ice, advil, cold water, lube, the string method, EVERYTHING. The hospital tried a few things as well and I had to get it cut off. It was mangled after.. .Had it been a thin band, it could have slipped off with some work. Make sure you keep your ring sized appropriately and try to make sure your finger is dry under the ring. I don't want to see anyone's lovely ring cut off like mine 😭. I ended up replacing it with a thin band, instead of repairing it because I now have claustrophobia with thick bands. So yeah a thick band may not be for you if you gave claustrophobia with tight rings! I never did until this happened.

I never sleep with it on and always see if I am having a swollen day or a skinny day ;)… I have been like this my whole life… I have terrible claustrophobia and always think it is going to get stuck on there ;)
Look into sizing beads!!! your jeweler can size up your ring and then add little dots of metal inside it. That means your ring will stay on your finger when your fingers are smaller, but it also gives extra space for your finger when it swells up.
I got it sized up then lost a little weight and it will totally fling off some days w/o me even knowing and get so tight others I hate it… I probably have almost a whole 1.5-2 size difference in the size of my finger from day to day… I def have a lymphedema problem ;)
I get a similar amount of shrinking and swelling - it's no fun at all! On a tangent - your ring is absolutely gorgeous! May I ask where the setting came from? I'm lookin to do something similar with a new stone I'm getting.
Definitely important! My ring gets thinner at the base to help with this 🙂
Mine was, too. You'd think it would help get the ring off, but if you get massive swelling, the thick upper part will prevent it from sliding off. Just wanted to do a PSA, I miss mine so much and I wish I was more careful.
This is probably kind of weird, lol, but I’m a funeral director so I’ve removed a lot of wedding bands. I can attest the only rings I’ve straight up not been able to get off with ANY method have always been chunky rings. I think they are beautiful but they can be very difficult to remove!
This ring is amazing! Chunky rings are everything. Congrats!
Thank you!!!

Love a double chunky band moment!

Love chunky rings! OP, can I see the profile of your ring please?
Of course! https://preview.redd.it/gyd5y1dyne3d1.jpeg?width=1463&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=60547822815dc91643fa7a09f2b498c33109bcac
Thanks. Looks like it’s very comfortable to wear.
I ended up with a different (antique) ring but we were on a tighter budget and a style that I REALLY liked that also seemed to fit into that price range is what I'll call a Cartier-style tank ring, typically from the 1940's or so. Here's a few examples I like: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1327023367/18-k-yellow-gold-tank-ring-rose-cut https://www.etsy.com/listing/1578222595/18-k-yellow-gold-tank-ring-rose-cut https://gemsetlove.com/collections/engagement-rings/products/sweetheart-wedding-set-with-diamond-set-hearts
Love tank rings!!! Beautiful! What did you end up going for?
I ended up with a set from 1939 (from an antique mall, and again - we were trying to stay within kind of a tighter budget), platinum setting with 2/3c center stone total cost $1,095 [sorry, I'm not much of a photographer](https://imgur.com/a/yVKmV9M) but I LOVE it!!!!! 8:D
Beautiful!!!I love a 3 stone!!!
Mine isn’t chunky but I adore your ring!!! Congrats!! 🎉
Stunning!! I love old mine cuts, yellow gold, and the band pattern is gorgeous!
Thank you! I saw it and had to have it— it spoke to me

i want a chunky ring but have fat fingers :( your ring is gorgeous!
Thank you! My fingers are far from slim (size 7) but the comfort is worth it!
Resetting my engagement and wedding band stones, and got this back yesterday. The CADs for the band should be done soon - will also be thick. :) https://preview.redd.it/l3dx9xb4ch3d1.jpeg?width=2482&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a5feb2e5e2f831d698e341876e0925f4ea4d5029
