After almost 40 years of marriage, I lost my dear husband last year. When we first we married, money was non-existent and my engagement ring contained very small (but nice) diamonds.
Over the years my DH upgraded my ring a few times. They were always very traditional high prongs affairs.
I decided that I wanted to have them redesigned into something more practical that I could wear daily and more suited to a casual lifestyle.
I had 4 rings redone into 2. A beautiful engagement rings with the big stones, and an eternity band with the smaller stones for the wedding band.

I just love them, and will be able to wear daily.
The main stone in the engagement ring is a .65c brilliant cut, D, IF that we bought loose on a trip to South Africa we had one year.

I miss my husband, love of my life daily, but get to look at my rings and get some comfort.

Thanks for letting me share.

I can finally post in this thread! Was in Paris last week and my dear boyfriend (and the father of my two little babies) popped the question underneath the Eiffel Tower at midnight. Cliche and surprising and amazing and surreal and exciting and beautiful all at the same time! View attachment 3494311View attachment 3494312View attachment 3494314View attachment 3494316

He is SUCH a man. Well a perfectionist but still a man. Meaning, I have no idea on the specs yet. He went through his Aunt who is in the diamond biz. Told her exactly what he wanted and he mostly cared about the cut & the color and that it had to be perfect. I'm still waiting on her to ship us the paper work but the only thing he knows for certain is that it's 1.5something. He doesn't even know if it's white gold or platinum! In any regard I don't care. Its' so so beautiful!

When we went to look at rings, my now husband and I looked a range of different sizes. I didn't want him to spend a small fortune, and I also wanted a smaller stone because I felt it looked better on me and more comfortable than some of the large stones. I loved this setting, because I'm a pretty simple girl! I still love it, a year and a half later [emoji7]IMG_1476651365.147979.jpg
