Here's my engagement ring next to my wedding band! I don't know any details about the ring besides it being a classic yellow gold band with a square cut diamond in white gold claws. It was previously my husband's grandmother's wedding ring, so it's from the early 40's. I'm not really into jewelry in general, and the little I wear tend to be very minimalist, so I absolutely love the simplicity of this ring. The fact that it's a family heirloom makes it even more valuable to me.

Our wedding bands are made out of gold from my mother in law's jewelry collection (she had a bunch of rings she never wore), it was melted down and remade by my sister who is a goldsmith, so our wedding jewelry is really a product of our families! The price tag on this was also zero (I offered to pay my sis for making the rings, but she refused), which is a huge bonus for us.

Absolutely gorgeous! What are the stories behind your two bands stacked beneath the e-ring? Is one an anniversary band? And are they eternity or half-eternity?

P.S. Great pose with the LV in the background - makes sense with your signature listing all the LV bags you have. :smile:

Thank you!! :) no big story -- I like the look of stacked bands, but couldn't find one I liked (I didn't want 2 of the same sandwiching my e-ring -- wanted something a bit different), so we started with the one that matches my e-ring when we got married, then for my birthday my DH had the other one made! Both are full eternity
