Eternity Ring Help (photo!)

Hi!

10 year wedding anniversary this year.... looked at online eternity rings and ordered a gorgeous one!

It came and I think I love it with my other rings but not 100% sure. Have attached a photo. I think if DH had bought it for me as a surprise I would have loved it, it's just that there's so much choice! Will also attach other styles I like - do you think I should stick with this one or try others?

Thank you!

Oh my goodness Sallydoodlecat, thank you so much, I think you've cracked it!

I never take my wedding ring off so never even thought about that order! But I love it! Your rings are beautiful by the way! 😊

Here's the order... I'm keeping it! (ignore red knuckle - rings hard to get off on hot days!)

Thank you so much everyone for all the comments and compliments and suggestions - much appreciated!

I have to give it back til our anniversary...! Can't wait to wear it now!

That’s better!
I wear mine in that order, somehow it just works better

Strokethefurrywall · 10/08/2023 19:20

Here's mine - I wear in the middle as it's a half size too big and I can't be arsed to get it changed. It also looks weird to me in any other position, after 13 years!

OP I bought a new thinner wedding ring on 2 mm thick so my eternity ring sits better on my finger. Mine looked more clunky with a 4mm wedding band. My wedding ring is now on a chain around my neck.

Wow, are those real diamonds? Your DH must have spent a fortune on you if they are.

Gothambutnotahamster · 10/08/2023 19:25

That looks lovely Op - happy anniversary!

Tryingtogetitright · 10/08/2023 19:41

Pleasure! They look beautiful.

Are they white gold? From the photos it looks like your wedding ring might need rhodium plating again. It's a more yellow tone than the other 2 rings.

Tryingtogetitright · 10/08/2023 20:37

Yes, they're all white gold, the wedding and engagement ring are both quite yellow-toned now but I quite like the softness of the gold colour so am keeping them as-is. Guessing it'll take a year or two for the eternity to match! 😊

Pretty sure you're meant to wear the most recent one closest to your heart ❤️

This is a silver star ring I have already to show you how it looks with a different style.
And a photo of just wedding and engagement rings.

I think the 2nd photo looks awful tbh. I much prefer the first arrangement

TerrysAllGoldGlisters · 10/08/2023 20:52

Lovely rings! I always understood that you're meant to wear the wedding ring at the base of your finger (because it goes on your bare ring finger on your wedding day) with the engagement ring in the middle (because you put that back on after your wedding ring on your wedding day) and your eternity ring on top of your engagement ring (because it goes on last after you've been wearing the other 2 for X number of years).

I wear my wedding and engagement rings on the left hand andn2my eternity ring on the right.

.

I do this too. It meant my husband could go all out on a wow eternity ring Grin Plus it looks so much nicer on its own.

Tryingtogetitright · 10/08/2023 21:01

I had a gorgeous dress ring for a birthday present so I wear that one on my right hand... I need more fingers!

Love the first picture. It’s an understated, easy to wear, classy ring.
Enjoy your anniversary.

Oblomov23 · 10/08/2023 21:27

I put eternity ring on first. Then wedding band. Then engagement ring.

Oblomov23 · 10/08/2023 21:28

Sorry just seen update. Sally doodle at has it!

Tryingtogetitright · 16/08/2023 14:48

I popped into a jewellers yesterday and tried on a few different styles (best I could with swollen fingers!) which confirmed that you are all correct and this is the ring for me!

Thank you all style queens!
