Favorite Style Of Engagement Ring?
Q: Whats your favorite style of engagement ring?
A:does anyone know of somewhere we can get a claddagh ring with a stone in the
heart??
My fiance is desperate to by one like this ofr my engagment ring but we cant
find one anywhere!!!!!!
At this rate Ill be wearing my wedding ring before the engagement ring lol,
My favorite is a princess cut solitaire in a yellow gold setting,
suitably large enough to make a wonderful sparkle on the hand! :) Just
like mine---wedding ring is a diamond wrap with 3 diamonds on each side
in desecending sizes---I always get rave comments about it! (Not to
mention that I find it just perfect!) :)
My enagement ring is a large (I'll leave out carat specifications in the
interest of Melissa and others who were properly raised not to discuss such
things in public) emerald-cut diamond with emerald-cut emeralds on either side,
set in yellow gold. The ratio in size between the center stone and the side
stones is 3:1, if that helps visualize the ring. IMO, it's absolutely perfect
and I wouldn't have designed a single thing differently about it, except
possibly making it a little smaller in overall stones. I'll just wear a plain
gold band with it.
got me a ring that is really me. It's in no way gaudy or flashy. It would
have been the ring I would have picked out for myself. It's white gold because
I prefer it over yellow. It has a modest diamond, I could care less about a
diamond size and really asked that if we ever got engaged that he buy me a ring
that wouldn't weigh my finger down, so to speak. I don't know much about rings
but it's a bit antique in design. The setting that the stone is over is a
square etched area with the stone rised a bit. It's a circle cut diamond but in
a square setting.
As for the original question... I never had a favorite style. I always
preferred jewelry that is "me". He knows me very well and made an excellent
choice. Now to find a wedding band that compliments us both, phew!
I forgot to answer the original question - my ring is very simple. A
ceylonese sapphire (they're the lighter blue ones, but mine is
slightly darker than most ceylonese but lighter than the others) round
cut, set in a simple gold ring with a rub-over setting.
It's the style I wanted. We went shopping together. He actually
proposed several times to me and I wouldn't say yes or no, then one
day he was being particularly wonderful and I proposed back. Not very
romantic but we got there in the end. And he bought me a ring. I
wanted to go shopping since I'd made up my mind a while ago that I
dislike diamonds[1] and I wanted the fun of hunting for an engagement
ring without diamonds. It was impressive the number of shop
assistants who tried to persuade me to have one.
BTW, the original
