    I love the stone, but not keen on all the stones that sit on the shoulders.
    Same here. The stone is lovely, the rest is superfluous.

  • I think it's gorgeous - but I'm biased cos it looks like mine!!! I have a round brilliant stone but the same shoulders and it's beautiful - doesn't look over the top, because the stones on the shoulders are very delicate - looks like yours are the same. I've tried on a plain wedding ring with mine and the contrast actually looks really good, but must admit I wasn't expecting it to.
    Also it's not a problem getting it resized - my mount was about 5 sizes too big, and it didn't affect the top half of the ring at all. The stone also looks very good on spec - I'd be expecting it to cost about £3000? Just a guess?! Good luck!!!

    I can honestly say that I am NOT jealous!

    The ring my OH bought me as an engagement was beautiful and as we knew each other very well, he knew my likes and dislikes. We were both 19 at the time and had been together since 13.

  • Looks really similar to mine that I got off QVC (mines silver and a radiant cut - sparkles more :) )

    Love that type of ring and have 3 stone either side of the main stone on mine and it looks very feminine, not a rock. Don't like emerald cuts personally because I think they look a little dull, but that just me. ;)

  • We dont know your soon to be fiance likes or dislikes, so asking an open forum doesnt make much sense to me:confused:.....other than you wanting to show off:rolleyes:

    FYI, it's not my cup of tea either.

    I suppose you've never asked for an opinion on a open forum then :confused: Where exactly is the OP showing off, I must have missed the post where they said the price. :rolleyes:

    I'm glad you like your ring just as I hope the OP's fiance likes her ring not sure what difference it makes knowing each other for 6 years from the age of 13 makes but whatever floats your boat.

    :rolleyes:

    OP congratulations on your engagement.
