Hi Snowshiro! I do agree with you. The ring is edgy! It's not a fine jewelry design you'll easily find anywhere else. The design is distinctive and I'm certain the craftsmanship is quality.
When I think of bourgeoisie I think of certain lines, such as la baseur du dragon and panthere de cartier, or the tiffany statement jewelry. This ring looks very refined while simultaneously conspicuous. I simply mean the design isn't "quaint." I'd assume someone would have to be established to access the piece, and I'm not established myself.
I think pave diamonds look great on some people but I wouldn't choose such a piece for myself. I'm also a teenage guy so that may have something to do with it lol!
Look at the bracelet on Leah's icon picture. It looks tasteful and stunning, a real show-stopper! I think it's a beautiful piece - bourgeoise because the average American simply doesn't wear such a spectacular jewel.
Out of curiousity - what is the price?
