Just as the title says! Been asking friends and family and had a really really divided response 🤔

So.. do you love it?
Or hate it?

My only worry would be losing a stone, also getting a wedding band to match. Halos are in at the moment but might not always be.

Why don’t you try some cheap high street versions - dress jewellery, to get a feeling of different stones.

It's nice for a dressy occasion but perhaps not every day wear, depending on your style.

I think you’re MIL is right. You have a beautiful ring already. 4 figures and you’re about to spend the same again on this ring? Why?

It’s quite obscene.

I don’t love it. Your hand shape doesn’t suit the squareness of the ring. It doesn’t flatter. The pear shape one you have is much more flattering IMO

I like that one but you suited the other one better. However it's what you like best.

amusedbush · 12/04/2022 20:55

I really don't like it and I think it looks very big and clunky on your finger. It immediately made me think of those massive belts boxers win, or that you'd won a Super Bowl Blush

That square shaped ring doesn’t suit your hand

bettertocryinamercedes · 12/04/2022 21:02

Love it

Ninjaexpress · 12/04/2022 21:38

I love it :-)

ChiefWiggumsBoy · 12/04/2022 23:09

I love it. Do people really buy rings based on whether its ‘timeless’ Confused

If you’re not marrying us or your MIL to be, then just get what YOU like. You’ll be the one wearing it.

StrangeAddiction · 12/04/2022 23:34

Love the ring but I had a look on your other thread that's been linked and I think I prefer the pear cut ring. I would love to wear either of them.

@yadil

Thank you all for your help and guidance. The more I look at it.. the more I feel it's a bit brash and possibly airing on the side of tacky 🙈🥺
How much is it?
BungleandGeorge · 13/04/2022 10:47

I like it but think it’s more of a dress ring than engagement as it looks quite fragile. Couldn’t wear with a wedding ring either

TwoShades1 · 13/04/2022 11:19

It’s lovely but not right for me. I’m not a fan on the square shape. I feel other ring styles look more flattering on my hand/finger/nail shape. But obviously all people are different and I think it could certainly look great on lots of people.

AffIt · 13/04/2022 11:26

I think it's very pretty, I like the Art Deco styling, but honestly, I don't think you should care what strangers on the internet think as long as YOU like it.
