DH-to-be has asked me for ring preferences. I vaguely know what I like but it'd mean a trip to Hatton Garden just to be sure. I find searching online a bit tiresome.

Would you mind uploading a photo of yours? 😍

I want this. I haven't had a proposal off DP. If he doesn't buy me it in the next 3 months I am buying it and will marry myself.

@SafeMove that’s a lovely ring! Propose to yourself at once!

@HalfCakeHalfBiscuit

This is mine
I still can’t believe he gave you a ring from a failed marriage Kate. It’s just weird.

It’s insufferably hun over there but the American site wedding bee have a ring board that’s quite good for this because you can search stones sizes and things. Though a lot of it is about 7,000 carats and worrying about it being too small. It’s an excellent hate read for those.

@Gensola I should shouldn't I?

Your ring is completely gorgeous. I am constantly searching for vintage engagement rings to propose to myself with. I would definitely put yours in my screenshot folder Flowers

Love these threads! Such beautiful rings. Mine is a yellow sapphire and I adore it.

I didn't know what i want but found the classic solitare a bit boring.

I did a bit of googling and found this ring which was my inspo / start point.
Mine was custom made it is similar to this but diff proportions and not a canary diamond.

Hmm, not if I get there first. I love that ring!

Plus thanks for linking me to another antique/vintage jewellers 😉

Everyone's rings are so nice, especially @JaceLancs (my kinda style!) and @Brownpigeon 😆

This is mine. I'm actually having a new one made so I'm wearing it on the wrong side 😂 I've decided I want a cushion cut instead. But I'm not parting with this one. Lol

Here's mine, it's not my original engagement ring though - we were young and skint when we got engaged (and married) so for our silver wedding anniversary we bought the same solitaire style but with a bigger diamond!

This is mine.... simple and different to a diamond. Chosen by my lovely OH.... with no prompting. Totally love it.

Houseofvelour · 15/11/2021 20:12

This is mine. I haven't had it cleaned in a while so it looks a bit worn 🙈 instead I've screenshotted a picture of it from the website 😂
It is beautiful and cost and arm and a leg but if I could go back in time, we'd choose one much cheaper and have an amazing honeymoon instead 🤷‍♀️

I always thought I just wanted a simple solitaire emerald cut diamond on a white gold band (and that's what I regularly pointed out to DH pre proposal!)

He chose a halo ring on a platinum band and I love it.
