All of your rings are gorgeous!!!!

My husband gave me my dream ring:

1 Carat Flawless Round in a Tiffany style setting in Platinum. ::

My wedding ring is an eternity band with diamonds and in platinum also.

Here is a picture (Looks better in RL):

Wow, such gorgeous rings. I just had to join the bandwagon and post mine.





Tiffany & Co round brilliant, 1.30 carat E, vvs2...enough said, it took nearly six years to convince my DF to get this! I've decided that when I become an attending, I'm going to purchase myself a Tiffany Legacy (cushion cut with pave diamonds) for my right hand.

mine is a 1ct solitare round cut diamond in a white gold band. I'll take a picture when I get home from work.

Here's mine like I promised and I lost a diamond out of my wedding band today. I don't know what happened to it. I noticed it when I got home from the mall I'm taking it tomorrow to get it replaced. Luckily there is an extended warranty for lost rocks on it.

i got engaged last valentines day, and my finace gave me an engagment ring from Tiffany's.

its specs are:
Color: F
Cut: EX/EX
Clarity: FL
Carat: 3.1

my diamond is GIA certified (of course) and it is a "heart and arrow" diamond. it looks magnificnet when examining it through a microscope, seeing the hearts and arrows on both sides of the diamond. i give alot of credit to the master cutters who made my flawless diamond and gave it its perfect cut.

It is the classic Tiffany setting on a plain platinum band. The diamond sits by it self on a gorgeous 6 prong setting.

im too lazy to take pics and upload right now but if anyone wants to see, let me know and i will..hehe..

Sam's Club carries our line, as well as Friedman's and Sterling Jewelers and others. Sam's is one of the most bang for the buck. We have sold to retailers all across the US and Sam's Club is the one that has prices so close to cost it's amazing they can carry it. Everything they carry has been passed through a quality control system so tight it squeaks! Our line is there. Sorry I can't tell you the prices. Nor can I tell you the locations that carry our line but if you do visit a Sam's and see these beautiful egg presentation keepsake boxes that look a little like Fa*ergae that is where our line is. Truely for a very very good quality ring I recommend Sam's you just can't beat the prices. Hope this helps.

Just so I don't get in trouble for trying to trade here in PF I edited out some things. I don't want anyone to think I am trying to push my line!!

These are mine, the aquamarine was a birthday gift from hubby. It is styled after LV's huge index finger rings.

i'm not engaged yet but i told my bf that a 2.0 cttw solitaire from tiffany's in their classic setting is the ring i want.

[Coldplaylover]

Smart choice mrsjimmyh!! Mine is a 2.49 from there and it always looks fab.

[acegirl]

Here's mine (soldered together with my wedding band) 2.1 ct. radiant cut center stone. 3 ct. total with bands. Bands have round & baguette cut diamonds.

I love seeing everyone's diamonds.. So pretty!

GingerB, Love your ring, it is very, very chic; very Cartier (Honeymoon setting) Can I have two engagement rings?

Mine is very boring, standard Tiffany 6 prong, 1.30 carat D/IF. My fiancé was looking at the Cartier Solitaire 4 prong setting until we went casually into Tiffany's one day and I said jokingly that if you are going to buy me a ring, buy me this one. So a month later, so they said, the rest is history...

P.S. He says that I'm a very shrewd/stingy person (a good thing ) because a standard 1 D/IF at Cartier costs 20% more than the one at Tiffany's The 20% markup for an extra C which stands for Cartier (the favorite phrase in the boutique and actually I sort of now get it why the markup

By the way ladies if your ring needs a good cleaning take a coffe cup and put enough windex in it to cover your jewels (don't put them in yet!) and heat it in the micro for just a bit, say 20 secs. Not hot HOT! Put your ring AFTER you have heated it and let it sit. Overnight is best but for as long as you can. Then take an old toothbrush (soft) and clean the ring. Rinse it carefully and if you happen to have a can of "Canned Air" give it a blast, but be sure to stay back since the canned air is cold. It can fracture a stone. NO pearls or really soft stones should be cleaned this way. Makes em sparkle like crazy!
