What a mixture of responses Grin
The rings are all 9ct gold; the white gold at the bottom is an aquamarine, rose gold in the middle is garnet and the yellow gold at the top is a stone called sphene. It's my favourite but it's a very soft stone and not suitable for wearing everyday. That would be ok though, as it's just a little treat to be worn every now and again, not an engagement ring or anything Smile

The top one

Bottom
then middle.

Bottom, then top. I really love the mixture of responses, I think that just goes to show how each persons taste varies so much!

This thread is like watching Strike It Lucky. Top middle or bottom?

I vote bottom. Not a fan of yellow stones and I'm not sure the middle stone (is that really a garnet? It looks purple on my monitor) suits the rose gold setting.

Have you looked at tanzanite though @Nimbybimbo ? My engagement ring is tanzanite and it’s so pretty, you can get them from quite a deep almost amethyst purple to a pale lilac/blue similar to aquamarine

Tanzanite is quite a soft stone and not really recommended for everyday wear. Be careful with it, I scratched mine wearing it just for best in the evenings.

Top

Bottom

Yeah @Plonque I got married and wear a diamond wedding band now so my tanzanite just looks at me forlornly on the dresser

middle

RuthW · 02/12/2020 17:21

Middle but If it's an engagement ring, I'm not sure how it would sit with a wedding ring.

If the bottom is an aquamarine, they look lovely when clean but can look like a dirty diamond.

I like the shape of the top one but am not a fan of yellow gold. The bottom one is pretty but aquamarine can seem washed out. I don’t like the middle one very much-it’s a bit chunky for me.

Aquamarine one
