The proposal was this past Wednesday, and was simple and sweet. Some of you may have read about our search for a chunky cushion and the process of getting the setting custom made. Thank goodness it is finished and on my finger!!!! We're so excited and have started planning (a little bit)!

Here it is!

Thanks so much!!

I have to give lots of credit to this website, and boston_jeff and Pixley! I was completely inspired by their beautiful rings!!!

Now, if only I can figure out how to take great macro shots - it is so much more stunning in person!

You got yourself a beauty.  I love the simplicity of the setting and the chunky faceting of the stone.  Wow!  Look at that small table and the depth is pretty good too (under 60%) to get such a large spread.

"It is also important for the State to inculcate in its subjects an aversion to any 'conspiracy theory of history' for a search for 'conspiracies' means a search for motives and an attribution of responsibility for historical misdeeds."

-Murray N. Rothbard, in The Anatomy of the State



John Swinton [1829-1901] Chief Editorial Writer of the New York Times (Considered "the Dean of his Profession" by his peers), when asked to toast an 'Independent Press' in a gathering at the National Press Club, circa 1880

"There is no such thing in America as an independent press unless it is in the country towns. You know it, and I know it. There is not one of you who dare express an honest opinion. If you express it you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid... for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for doing similar things....

The business of the New York journalist is to distort the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of Mammon, and sell his country and race for his daily bread, or for what is about the same thing, his salary. You know this, and I know it and what foolery to be toasting an 'independent press.' We are tools, and the vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are jumping-jacks. They pull the strings and we dance. Our time, our talents, our lives, our possibilities, all are the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."

Thank you so much for all of your kind words! I really appreciate it! I am so lucky to be engaged to my best friend, but also a man that made sure I got the ring of my dreams, even if it was more than he originally thought he would spend!

I promise I will post more pics soon - I am a kindergarten teacher and am in the last few days of school, with 43 report cards to finish!!!

Thank you again!

I love it very much.  I have to ask for a IRL picture, like from a distance or something. 

It really is a stunning cushion.  I mean I see a lot of cushion even bigger but this one has such an adorable facets.  It looks more than just stunning.  I'm sorry I just lost words.  I think I am in love with your cushion now.
