I’m just about to get my engagement ring and would love to see all of yours.

If you know your rings specs that would be great too as my head is fuddled with them all!

They’re all so beautiful! I’ll be meeting mine for the first time on Sunday.

Thank you again for sharing everyone!

The pears and ovals are my faves.

@JaceLancs

I am wondering what to do with my wedding ring, perhaps I should just wear it like you - I paid for it!

Tipsylizard · 11/09/2020 14:38

Platinum set. Total of 1ct not sure of anything else!

@roarfeckingroarr your ring is beyond beautiful! Wow.

Sadly, I don't have anything to show in return, and likely never will Grin

roarfeckingroarr · 11/09/2020 15:31

@excelledyourself ah don't say that! And thank you. I really love it.

JaceLancs · 11/09/2020 16:36

@movingonup20
Wear it!
Mine still have some good memories especially of my 2 DC
Pity ExDH idea of eternity was only until he met OW had an affair and left
Good job I’ve enjoyed my life since just as much

Thanks @84claire84 Grin DH did good although really it was DM apparently my she dragged him to an antique centre in a last minute panic on Xmas Eve after he'd run out of ideas & couldn't find anything.

@excelledyourself save up & buy yourself a beautiful piece of jewellery anyway, I prefer buying my own.

Congratulations OP 💘

@Marshmallowsontoast yours is beautiful.

Combination of old cut and emerald cut diamonds in platinum rub over setting on yellow gold band - think it's about 1.75 carats. Lovely and sparkly but doesn't catch.

P.S. Was surprised - but delighted obviously - to receive my eternity ring for a "random" (21st) anniversary but it turns out DH got his significant anniversaries confused with birthdays and thought that 21 was the big one, love him.

P.P.S. To add to my rings' story, my engagement ring, being Victorian, is now very thin so I'm replacing the shank with one from a ring which my godmother gave me. Our jeweller (old friend of DH) pointed out it was lovely that it would make it even more personal. What a sentimental old Hector he is.

1.8 carat diamond, VS2, H colour Smile

I never wanted a solitaire but if I did it would be that one. It's a beaut!

Mine has just been upgraded after 23 years. My original engagement ring was really thin and we were only 20 so not huge as we had no money then!!!!
