Love mine

This is mine. DH chose it by himself so I love it all the more. The other is my eternity ring which I wear on my right hand to show it off more. When I showed my Mum it her face dropped and she showed me her Mum's engagement ring. I never met her, she died 12 years before I was born. The similarity still gives me chills

So many lovely rings :)

Here's mine. It's a sapphire set in a platinum band. A jeweller friend designed it for me, and the stone was a wedding gift from her. I love it.

This one is my grandma engagement ring. I lost my original and the replacement got damaged so isn't safe to wear. I prefer this one anyway so have worn it for the past 3 years.

toomuchlikehardwork · 02/03/2018 15:31

Helps if I include the picture

Also I do have a wedding ring (married almost 14 years) but no picture of me wearing both

wavinggoodbyetothewinewitch · 02/03/2018 15:35

This is my set, eternity ring at the bottom, then engagement ring, then wedding ring.

MrsPear · 02/03/2018 17:34

I always thought mine was white gold and fake diamond but thanks to another thread it may be real I’m very Confused

Platinum band with 3 diamonds. Annoyingly got it made bigger just after gave birth and now it's too loose. I have big knuckles and small fingers

Kangar00, ours are very similar. I posted mine near the top of the thread.

SiberianSnow · 02/03/2018 20:05

I've NC for this because the details are really outing.

Have loved reading this thread today.

I'm getting married tomorrow! Literally half our very small party can't come due to either being in hospital or being knee deep in snow several hundred miles away, but we're going ahead anyway even though we've had to cancel the official reception.

My ring, sapphire in platinum. Tomorrow will be joined by a plain platinum band. Did my nails yesterday, not bad I don't think considering the last time I attempted a French manicure is was around 2001!

Here is mine. It was my grandmothers. Four diamonds in a white gold setting. Bought by my grandfather in Lancaster in 1929.

That is a beautiful ring @SiberianSnow hope you have a lovely day tomorrow! Flowers

April229 · 02/03/2018 20:21

Classic and simple. I love it.

doublebuddy · 02/03/2018 20:27

Here's my beauty. Love love love it. The only (first world) problem is that it can't fit a wedding band next to it so I wear the wedding band on my right hand

Annabelle4 · 02/03/2018 20:30

Good luck tomorrow SiberianSnow. Congratulations Flowers

It must be so special to wear a ring that has been worn by past generations. I'd love that connection with my grandmothers

Appuskidu · 02/03/2018 20:33

Where’s yours, doublebuddy? I can’t see it Sad
