Ring recommendations - budget constraints

[myladyjane]

My dh wants to buy me a ring for Xmas to wear instead of my wedding/engagement rings (there is a long dull story about why I don’t wear them but suffice to say I don’t).

i want more like an eternity band than a single stone. Must be slim - I have short, fat fingers. I really really don’t want to spend more than £200 just in case I have the same issues as I did with my other rings

i know I don’t want vintage/antique. Obviously stones will need to be semi precious or fake. Needs to be hard wearing and for this reason I am thinking maybe silver rather than gold plate.

any recommendations? I have seen a couple on linjer and astrid and miu that I quite like but a bit worried they are too cheap to be n any way durable. Am open to Etsy if it’s an actual recommendation of a seller.

just needs to be a bit pretty and sparkly really - I know I’m not going to get something amazing but maybe something to make me smile.

I would personally go for vintage as you get better quality/value, but here’s a slim one with stones that might suit for your budget.

But you could get 9ct gold for the same price if 2nd hand.

I like Carrie Elizabeth - I have a few pieces and the quality has been great ☺️

I know you've said you don't want to, but I would go for vintage in that price bracket. You get far more for your money.

Thank you

the thing with vintage is I have looked and I can never find anything I like. They are all quite formal (for want of a different word, I can’t think how to phrase it otherwise).

this is the kind of thing I like

@myladyjane I like similar styles and tend to go with Carrie Elizabeth, Monica Vinader, Missoma and Astrid & Miyu ☺️
