Aww, thank you @Braveasfook 😊 I'm so pleased with how it looks on my rather large hands and honestly can't believe I own something so beautiful!

OP, your engagement ring is beautiful!

Boring for me! It does sparkle though and a love my chunky wedding ring.

Was originally platinum but one drunken evening after losing a lot of weight I lost both, but these are pretty much exact replicas.

The jeweller advised me to go for palladium as it was (at the time) cheaper than pt so could get a bigger diamond. Spoke to him 3 years later to make an eternity ring and he said he wouldn't do palladium as it was so much more expensive (almost double the cost for a gram) and he advised me to get in contact with house insurance to very quickly update the value of them both! So I got a bargain!

Blondeshavemorefun · 08/05/2022 09:52

Hmmmm pic didn’t post

have moved engagement ring out to show shape

and love them both !

My wedding ring is a temporary one we picked up the day we got married in Vegas for $80.

10 years still counts as "temporary", right?

Congratulations OP!
Some amazing rings and also some lovely manicures which are making me feel bad about my shabby nails!

Sorry. Mmmm was at my hands ☹️

I love this thread. The engagement rings are beautiful. I went for a double halo setting , you can't see but it has such a pretty design on the inner part of the ring, facing towards me that made it a bit more unique.

Agree (on both points!)

poppypetal · 09/05/2022 15:28

There are some lovely rings on here, wow!!

But why does my hand look so old!?! And excuse the fake tan that’s gone orange 😂

Heres mine….wedding band, eternity ring, engagement ring & eternity ring. I got the eternities for the births of my children.

Holy moly the size of some of these rocks!!!!!! 💎

poorpaws · 11/05/2022 14:31

@SockFluffInTheBath thank you, that's so kind. I wanted something small, not flashy (although I love some of the flashy ones on here but my small wrinkly hands wouldn't take flashy), with a small but quality sparkly diamond 😁
