Here's mine. Single diamond solitaire, platinum band. I like it because the slight twist makes it slightly different. DH chose it himself, he picked out the diamond and then chose the setting and then we got the wedding ring to match so it fits perfectly. I love it

Hard to get a decent photo! Middle stone is a sapphire but always looks almost black in photos. 5 diamonds down each shoulder.

Excuse the chubby hands I’m 35 weeks pregnant!

Wow @Sexnotgender, my rings wouldn't go anywhere near my fingers from about 26 weeks!

I have to say, it's nice to read all the thread, admire all the rings but feel that my one is still my favourite Smile

Mines very simple and delicate with just a little bit of sparkle! I love it as I don't really wear much jewellery and my hands look weird with chunky stuff even though I secretly would love a big bling ring Grin

Love mine.

Bottom is full eternity (wedding band)
Middle is 7 stone half eternity (DH bought it after I had DS2)
And engagement ring

I only wear them outside the house, never keep them on inside, they're a pain in the arse to dry underneath so I keeps them in the same place everyday.

Plain solitaire with white gold band. I'm not really a ring-wearer and I wanted something simple because I'd probably go off it otherwise. I'm a bit fickle about styles so its a good job I still like it because if I needed to remove it, it would need cutting off (I'm about 4 and a half stone heavier than when it first graced my finger in 2005)

Nice, plain, non fussy and non expensive just how I wanted it. I love how he listened and chose me the ring that is perfect for me.

Can't remember when I got them as they are replacements for the set I lost but here's my super cute puppy as well helping me model them Grin

First shot taken by the jeweller who made them, second shot on the hand.

The engagement ring on the bottom was made first and designed by DH. The wedding band un-traditionally on top was designed by me.

Here's mine. Emeralds have always been my favourite, and this emerald was the clearest, greenest one we could find (except for a couple of incredible ones way above budget). I love the colour of it even more in artificial light, but this photo was in daylight.

1/3 carat diamond engagement ring. Dh bought it with all of his Christmas bonus. We had no money and were young.
Then a full eternity, which is one carat.
The twisted one carat diamond wedding ring.
The last two are white gold. The engagement ring is yellow because white gold was only just coming in the shops. I wish it was white gold.

That is stunning, mistressflashette.

TheRealHousewifeofCheshire · 17/12/2018 20:19

Pretypub yours look lovely but cant see them very well and loujinesey gorgeous. X

grandmistressflashette · 17/12/2018 20:27

Thanks, Don. I love it, but it's clearly not a fashionable choice - the jeweller had had it hanging around for quite a while, apparently!

TheRealHousewifeofCheshire · 17/12/2018 21:02

Someone said they liked writersblocks I cant find it.
Strokethefurrywall. Love yours they are beautiful. I was worried a sparkly wedding band and eternity ring wouldnt work but that's gorge.

Snapsnapsnap · 17/12/2018 21:04

grabdmistress it's a beatiful stone and setting.

No-one has my ideal ring-an emerald cut diamond with baguettes either side. DH and I had well and truly thrown our lot in together before we got married, and we never felt like spending ££££ on a ring. Mostly I don't mind but this thread is making me want one!
