If they were the only style she likes and she's always wanted a really lovely diamond ring?! Is it really weird? Around £700?

That's so lovely. Doesn't matter at all what it's supposed correct title is!

This is lovely and you are lovely.

My mum bought me one for my 18th before I headed off to uni to show she would always love me for eternity, no matter what life threw our way so why not.

Oh how lovely that she found exactly what she wanted. Who cares what the receipt says? It’s something she will treasure and given with love. Sounds perfect!

Eternity rings were invented in the 1960s to sell more diamond chips.

If you want to buy your mum a beautiful ring then do it. I think it’s a lovely thing to do.

Surely it’s just a diamond ring? An eternity ring can be any style of ring, it doesn’t have to be the traditional ring. I’d buy her it.

I bought my mum one many years ago, she loved it and my dad died after they had only been married a few years and had never bought her one,

I got my mum one for her 60th & she loved it 🥰

You are buying her a ring that she loves .
Its a wonderful kind gesture.
What a lovely person you are.

It sounds like my wedding ring. Which 10 years ago, when I decided that was what I wanted, everyone criticised saying it was a half eternity, not a wedding band! Sod what everyone else thinks, its lovely.
