Engagement rings around the world

BrightSpot Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,783 Last Post: 8/4/2009 Member Since: 4/14/2005	I thought it might be interesting to take a poll about people's engagements rings in different parts of the US & around the world. Could you post the stats on your engagement ring (size, shape & type of stone (diamond, emerald, etc.) as well as type of mounting) and where you live? "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy." -William Shakespeare

I received an 18K gold band with two 1-point diamonds inside an oval "nest".

Sparkster Ideal Rock Total Posts: 582 Last Post: 4/11/2008 Member Since: 6/1/2004	Australia Centre stone is a .91 D VVS2 princess cut with two pinks sapphires on either side of the centre diamond. Can't describe the mounting, because it's so unusual, so here's a picture of what it looks like (this is from the brochure so it's not actually my ring). Ignore the ring that's standing upright because that's with a round brilliant. And the picture has pink diamonds - we couldn't afford them hence why mine's pink sapphires. _______________________ << Everyday is a gift, which is why we call today "the present" >>

This might be redundant as I didn't read all the posts in the other board but did you decide to go with the spacer? I will definitely like to see how that came out! Did you also get your center stone from WF? I was browsing and saw one that I really liked.

valeria101 Ideal Rock Total Posts: 14,048 Last Post: 4/30/2006 Member Since: 8/29/2003	So... there are American, Australian and British rings on the list. Somewhere in the depth of Pricescope there are some European ones (Norvegian, Finnish, German, and Slovenian - at least) and Asian from Singapore, Hong Kong and Thailand and Japan...

ursulawrite Cut Rock Total Posts: 382 Last Post: 11/20/2009 Member Since: 11/17/2004	Another ex-pat Brit, now residing in NYC. E-ring is an E, VVS1, 1.32 carat RB. Because of the size, which is pretty large by English standards, people thought I was engaged to royalty. How very disappointed they were to find out that hubbie-to-be was a lowly corporate lawyer.

IslandDreams Ideal Rock Total Posts: 2,011 Last Post: 12/3/2008 Member Since: 11/19/2004	My ring is a 1.20 carat F rectangular radiant cut on Michael B 3 sided pave. I live in northern Indiana. I have had a lot of people ask me if my stone was a 2 or 3 carat. I think that's partially because center stone size probably is around .75 in this area, but also no one has ever seen a radiant before and the rectangular shape makes it look larger....
