I just love a ring thread!
My DP and I got married last month, and I'm waiting for my wedding ring to come back from the jewellers as it was a little too big.

Whilst I'm waiting (and missing it!!) I'd love to see yours!

@Benjispruce4 It’s an indicolite tourmaline. It’s set in red gold and I just adore it.

Oh I love looking at all these beautiful rings!! I still love mine 25 years on. I went with simple platinum and diamond. The wedding band has teeny natural pink diamonds too.

Is that a diamond solitaire with the setting looking like a bow? My reiki lady has one like that and I have always admired it.

My engagement, wedding and eternity rings. Engagement was from Hatten Garden and I chose it myself, the three diamonds represent past, present and future. The plain silver wedding ring was because I wanted something simple as the engagement ring had all the diamonds. I got the eternity ring after my second baby as DS1 is a September baby which is Sapphire and DS2 is April which is diamond and I absolutely love it 💙🤍

Fabulous jewellery. You know what I haven't seen pearls, or amethysts in a ring. They're out of fashion perhaps

I have an amethyst ring. It was my Great grandmothers. I inherited it from my mum. I haven’t been able to bring myself to getting it out of her safe. I always knew when I owned that ring, mum would be gone. It’s part of my denial.

But I have been thinking of going and getting it from her and dads house. I would love to show it off. But it’s the only amethyst ring I have seen for years, but it’s over 100 years old, so maybe they haven’t been popular for a while. I think you might be right.

I did have a pearl ring that mum got me in the 90s but I haven’t seen that for years. No idea where it is.

Jewellery cleaning. I use an ultrasonic jewellery cleaner great for fine and costume jewellery. You can clean your glasses too. Loads on Amazon. Christmas present years ago

"Amazon.co.uk : ultrasonic jewellery cleaner" www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=ultrasonic+jewellery+cleaner&crid=2XV03CHRSGQE7&sprefix=ultrasonic+jewellery+cleaner+%2Caps%2C250&ref=nb_sb_noss_2

Be careful when using an ultrasonic jewellery cleaner, the vibration can literally shake precious stones from their settings 😱

AdoraBell · 08/10/2022 22:42

Oooh that’s lovely Puffings

jools85 · 08/10/2022 22:52

Bridezilla · 08/10/2022 00:07

@Thingsthatgo is it worth buying an ultrasonic cleaning machine? Do you recommend using them?

I have one and it does a great job of cleaning gold, two of my friends are manufacturing jewellers and they have warned against using an ultrasonic cleaner to clean jewellery with precious stones as the vibration can shake the stones loose, I thought I knew better until I cleaned an eternity style ring in it, fortunately I noticed that there was a stone missing from the ring before I tipped the water from the cleaner down the drain 🙊
