Hey guys,
So here's the thing, I'm going to ask my girlfriend to marry me but I really don't know all that much about rings.
I had in my head I wanted emerald with diamond...
Diamond because its traditional, and I'm a traditional kinda guy. Emerald because she not traditional, and more because emeralds are the exact colour of her eyes. She's got ridiculously amazing eyes and she looks drop dead in anything green.
So I thought it would be easy. But then I told my brother so he could help me choose a ring and he went all Gok Wan on me and told me you shouldn't get a coloured ring because then it will clash with clothes?
And then people say that its quite a fragile stone compared to diamond and that that's not good, soooooo, I don't know.
Its hard to find something like whats in my head as well. The closest is probably this http://www.myjewelrybox.com/?section=item&itemID=15078 but I think that, with bigger diamonds would of looked better, I dunno. Plus It kind of feels cheap I was expecting 500ish and I probably could of gone a little higher
I just, I don't know - do you think coloured stones are not a great idea for an engagement ring? Or should I just go with it?
