Thanks, I actually have another one like this I bought last month, but its horizontal and slightly smaller. I love both.

They’re so beautiful!

Whoknowswherethewindsblow · 23/02/2025 21:33

What beautiful rings. It’s so nice to see them, and to hear the stories they carry.

This is mine. Only engaged a few months.

I haven't. It's just reverted back to my last previously used one for some reason. I was as surprised as anyone that it wasn't the one I started with. No idea.how it happened, it's even changed the op

I think it's for the best- your username was somewhat controversial. I reckon someone complained and MNHQ changed it.

Mines a Vera Wang classic feels massive because my hands are tiny but used it now

This is mine, chosen by me from a second hand seller on Etsy I love it, but it’s hard to find wedding band to match

Could you send me a link? Am on Etsy now and I think they're copy cat designs the ones I've found sadly

Stumpie111 · 23/02/2025 21:54

Would love to show mine, 60 years old, my most treasured possession, but can’t work out how to send a photo! Very wrinkled hands also😂

Palmtreesinthedistance · 23/02/2025 21:54

Congratulations OP and I love your opal ring. So unusual. Lots of other beautiful rings on this thread.

Here is my contribution.

I'm sorry.

If it makes you feel better, not everyone on the thread is happy - I was widowed 4 yrs ago - but I acknowledge that I've been lucky to have had a good man.

Thanks heartbreak is so bloody hard but I have my kids not to him thankgod and there older daughters aged 10 and 15 and a good supportive female neighbour whose a good friend and helping. I'm sorry to hear about your late husband passing. I did have good years with my husband before he became an alcholic and have 2 amazing kids so I have to remind myself being alone with them without stress of a bad man is better xx

My emerald and diamond engagement ring chosen by my husband 29 years ago. I still love it.

Engagement ring bought by DH in 2002, when we had no money, think it was about £800. Still had no money when we got married in 2014, so I pawned some jewellery to pay for my wedding ring. Both 18ct white gold.

I love them both.

@Tarkan @IlovePond

My ring was DHs grandmother’s ring from October 18th 1914. She left it to her DIL (DH’s mother) who gave it to me about 20 years after we were married with the most beautiful letter thanking me for caring for her partner who died while they were visiting us. I know how much she treasured that ring and so do I.
DH and I got married 50 years ago and never got engaged as we decided to get married and did so 6 weeks later.
I still love my ring ( and my DH!)

https://philiplloydjewellers.co.uk/products/victorian-ruby-and-diamond-platinum-ring-0-60ct-0-30ct?_pos=2&_sid=20f7c4cfa&_ss=r Nearly identical ring here, they also have some other amazing rings.

The Etsy seller I bought from was losebyandcojewellery, but I originally found the ring for sale from the above jeweller.

Here's mine

beautiful, what is it?

Hixxy1 · 23/02/2025 23:07

So many wedding rings worn above the engagement ring. Why?

You're supposed to wear your wedding ring at the base of your finger, as it's closest to your heart line!

Stop it - it's all wrong! 😆

It's personal choice, of course, but for many the wedding ring is worn as a 'keeper' ring.

That’s beautiful @Trumpton - thanks for sharing the picture.

My engagement ring and wedding ring look very unfashionable now as yellow gold and 1970s style , one of the sapphires fell out and when it was repaired the diamond looked even smaller but I love my rings .

These are my second set. My engagement and wedding rings from my late husband are safely tucked away. Been engaged a year and got married in June.
