I happen to pin a LOT of styles, but not so much because I like or love THAT ring, but maybe an element of it ... could be the engraving, could be the basket, you get my drift. OP's intended might really just love that ring and everything about it, but I know if my SO we're to ever look at my Pinterest bling folder, he would be lost, or might actually wind up buying something I didn't love, but only liked one element of that piece. In situations like this, if it were me, I would prefer being proposed to with the diamond he picked out set in a very simple solitaire/temp setting so we could pick out the "forever" setting together. But that's just me ...
I think you are spot on. I feel like she also would like this setting now, but in 5-10 years not like it anymore. I think I am going to go for something a little more timeless and that is more open/traditional in the setting.
Thanks for sharing!
