My engagement ring arrived this morning and I'm so in love with it, can I see yours?

We got mine in a jewellers in Andover. I walked past it every day on my way to work and I was terrified they would sell it before we got engaged 😂. I’d post a picture but I don’t know how.

Edited

Really glad it hadn't been sold :)

I was amazed to successfully upload a photo. I took a photo on my phone then clicked on the Add GIF button. I think :)

@DutifulDaughterWifeMother - I went to the jewellery quarter in Birmingham a few years ago, but only to look round, (we are not local so couldn’t get repairs done there).

I tried to have my mangled and ruined ring transformed into a wearable pendant at a supposedly reputable jeweller in Hatton Garden but they made a mess of it too.

Tbf, the main problem was that they asked me to draw a picture of what I wanted and I can’t draw. The guy advising me said the jeweller would understand the general idea. Instead they copied my wonky drawing exactly, wobbly lines and all 🙈 I was genuinely lost for words when I collected it.

@tofuprincess - I would love to see a pic even if it's after you get it fixed. From what another PP said to me though, do make sure it's a decent place to fix it. Losing one of my stones is a worry of mine so hopefully not something I have to do.

That is gorgeous!

I have really enjoyed seeing so many coloured stones on here - I don't see many other women with them in real life!

Congrats OP.
Love a ring thread and this one hasn't disappointed.

This is absolutely stunning!

Thank you. It's my birthstone and I love it.
I wanted an aquamarine the first time and was ignored (which was probably a sign 😜) so this feels special.

Some beautiful rings here.
I always thought that opals (and pearls) were too soft for engagement rings? 🤔

Yes, I'm a goldsmith - they're soft and porous, so definitely need taking off if washing up etc. Had this conversation this morning with a customer, they need looking after

Gottleogear · 25/02/2025 16:49

Love seeing all your rings 🥰

Here are mine.
Eternity ring was bought for our 20th wedding anniversary

I got this replacement engagement ring (I lost my original one😔) for our 25th anniversary, and I love it.

The emerald was for our 35th anniversary

This is mine, it’s super sparkly and I still get loads of compliments on it, I absolutely love it! DH chose it and I chose a wedding ring that fits around it. It’s from a Disney range and has a tiny princess carriage on the sides of it, bit hard to show, in second photo.

My engagement and wedding ring.
I'm very spoiled and dh has given me several other rings during our long marriage, and the tiny diamond studs.
The ruby and tanzanite are my favourites

Nah, I just don't like her. She's done other far worse stuff.

Who’d have guessed? 🙄

everychildmatters · 25/02/2025 23:25

@JoyousEagle Do you honestly believe that if you "really want to be married" you have to change your last name to that of your husband's?
I shall tell mine I'm not really married to him, even more so because I didn't change my title either!! 💪

everychildmatters · 25/02/2025 23:33

@JoyousEagle Apologies - for some reason it popped up as quoting you when I mean to quote @DiabeticChocolateLover. Sorry!

FondantFancyFan · 26/02/2025 06:11

Anyhoo pictures of more rings please 🙏 😀

RavenT · 26/02/2025 09:03

Not my engagement ring. I'm divorced and sold them to a jewellers, and when I was in there I saw this little ring and treated myself. This ring is everything my wedding set was not (platinum, diamond) - I love the 18k yellow gold and the sapphire, I love the fact it's small.
I don't wear it enough as I need it making a bit bigger, but love it all the same - this is MY ring. 😊

Far worse stuff than exercising her right to her own personal identity and wearing (or not wearing) her own jewellery as she sees fit.

Sounds a real monster.
