This is my ring. Its a 1.36 ct taupe colored diamond. Its on the lighter shade of brown, bordering on apricot. I love it in the 18kt gold.
Personally, I think colored diamonds are the way to go. So much fun to wear and super sparkly too.
This is exactly the ring I have been looking for! I found a picture of a similar ring with regular diamond, and have been trying to imagine what it will look like with a Taupe/champagne diamond. I am thinking of a brushed gold band. Gorgeous!
