That's a beautiful ring. We celebrated our 25th two years ago and i got a Tiffany silver bracelet which I love but I will definitely think about a ring like that for any future significant anniversaries. Thank you for showing us.

ILoveMyNewRing · 03/05/2019 21:31

judgeJudy, now I come to think of it, I believe morganite IS the traditional gift for 28 years! Wink

It is a lovely ring ( I recognise Morganite, the delicate pink hues are so pretty)

My 25th is next year , I got an eternity ring this year but I might ask for Morganite stud earrings next year , I think the colour would look really nice at my ears. (Ears don;t show their age as much as hands . Just something to consider when your DH buys you something next year Grin )

Beautiful ring! Lucky spud. I have a morganite ring set in rose gold too, I love it and should definitely wear it more often. At the moment it comes out only on high days and holidays.

Whatthefoxgoingon · 04/05/2019 08:00

I have a morganite pendant I adore. A lovely and unusual choice you made. Happy anniversary!

GVmama · 04/05/2019 10:47

Picture of mine Smile it fits over my antique rose gold wedding ring which belonged to my Great Granny. She married with the same ring 100 years before me!

It's lovely! I have to tell you that there is a pair of earrings that would go beautifully with that ring on swarozki, I was just looking on their site a moment ago and I saw a similar colour stone.

is this morganite?

CountFosco · 04/05/2019 10:57

when I saw the pic I thought 'gosh she has young hands for someone celebrating a milestone anniversary'!

Me too! Lovely ring and isn't it lovely to get a new sparkly ring with meaning. Two years ago I spend my work bonus on a set of stacking rings with the DCs birthstones, spent the next 6 months saying 'look at my new rings!' because I was so chuffed with them.

ILoveMyNewRing · 04/05/2019 11:36

GV, how lovely to have your grandmother’s ring - that’s something with such meaning. Your morganite ring is lovely. I looked at halo ones with stones in the band which are absolutely gorgeous and I was very tempted, but I don’t do very well with anything except plain bands. It took me ages to find something both plain and LARGE!

For those suggesting matching earrings, it’s possible I’ve already got a pair

oooo can we have a look? @countfosco

ILoveMyNewRing · 04/05/2019 11:38

CountFosco - your rings sound lovely. Can you share a picture?

Actually this has really helped, because I was thinking just the other day that I really want pink stones in my 1st anniversary eternity ring (we’ve been together for years so as far as I’m concerned I’m due an anniversary ring a bit sooner than one might usually get it! Grin) but I didn’t know what would be right.

Morganite will be perfect! - My wedding ring is going to be a platinum diamond eternity ring, so a morganite eternity ring will be the perfect accompaniment!

Such beautiful rings on this thread. Would love to see more photos of beautiful rings (if you’d permit a slight derail, *ILoveMyNewRing?)!

ILoveMyNewRing · 04/05/2019 12:18

Nink, I would ADORE a ring picture sharing session! Show us some of the ones you’re thinking about

So beautiful. Yours too @GVmama

I realllly want an emerald ring but haven't found anything affordable. If any of you ladies have any inspiration for me do share!! I'm scared to go looking in case I find something I love but can't have

CountFosco · 04/05/2019 13:59

Here they are, turquoise, moonstone and sapphire stones and the rings are rose gold.

ILoveMyNewRing · 04/05/2019 16:17

They’re lovely- very classy

Spudlet · 04/05/2019 16:36

They're really pretty and I love the fact that they are meaningful to you. Have just been looking up all of our birthstones so I can leave a massive hint or three lying around for DH for my birthday or Christmas... Grin

Ninkaninus · 04/05/2019 19:42

So, we went wedding ring shopping today!! Smile

Totally spontaneous, but obviously inspired by this thread!

Can’t get a good photo but will try again.

MarIsFiuLiomE · 04/05/2019 21:19

Oh those are lovely @countfosco

Ninkaninus · 04/05/2019 21:20

Here it is!

We went for a half eternity instead - cheaper, and it means I’ll be able to resize it at a later date if I ever need to.

I couldn’t get a good photo, really, but this will give an idea at least...Sorry...also please excuse my sausage finger, it didn’t take well to the multiple times I’ve put rings on and taken them off today! Smile

I think the very slim wedding band goes well with the small diamond on my engagement ring - anything more and it detracted from that. Plus I wanted to be able to have a third ring in the stack without it becoming g too obtrusive on my small fingers.

Showing off my new ring!
Ninkaninus · 04/05/2019 21:22

Oh fuck my nail looks filthy. It’s really not, I promise!
