I got this ring for my middle daughter's 15th birthday! I can't wait for her to open it, but her birthday isn't until next Monday! I'd love to sneak a peek at it now that I'm home, but I can't imagine that I can tie that bow back! It's a Tiffany Elsa Peretti sterling silver ring with a .02 diamond. She is allergic to nickel, and these rings have only copper as the added metal. I am thrilled! We had visited Tiffany's a few weeks ago, and this is the ring she liked best. She found a website that has some nice knock off versions of several Tiffany pieces, but I just couldn't imagine buying a knock off as a 15th birthday present. When she sees it, she is gonna be really happy. I'll take pictures next week, but for now...here is the Tiffany site's photo of it. http://www.tiffany.com/Shopping/item.aspx?sku=GRP00176&search_params=t+-s+0-p+2-l+-h+-c+-r+169+115+143-x Yippee! ![]()

Thanks to everyone! I feel kinda bad for her with her nickel allergy, she has a hard time wearing any jewelry, so this ring will be extra special in that she really doesn't even have costume jewelry she can wear. I got my oldest a really cute silver Judith Ripka bracelet with a light blue sapphire charm sort of thing last year when she turned 16. It is a beauty. I was a bit worried, because all my girls are pretty independent, and I was reluctant to spend money on something she hadn't at least window shopped with me before and seen. It was the same nearly the same price as this ring, and I was worried she wouldn't like it. I still remember buying it. I walked into a really nice jewelry store here in Denver, and said my budget was $250 for a 16 year old birthday present. i felt a bit out of place, but the sales lady went and picked out the bracelet - it has links and is kind of chunky to look at initially, the stone is cut into a heart shape, and is surrounded by a metal circle thingy, with a tiny yellow gold heart and itty bitty diamond chip at the top. Ok, I can't really explain it, I'll have to take a picture of it sometime soon. Anyway, it called to me in the store that she would love it. I bought it within 5 minutes of walking in...then worried about it for a week. When she opened it, I thought she did not like it. BUT, she wears it frequently and it truly is her style. The jewelry store says it will rhodium plate it for life when/if it needs it. For my birthday girl coming up, she did try this one on at Tiffany, so I know she will be thrilled! So fun! Thanks for letting me share my story.

She will be so excited! My mom bought me my first diamond (1/3 5 stone band) too and I really like that tradition. It is a great ring!

What a gorgeous ring!!! I completely feel for your daughter with the nickel allergy...didn't know that it was possible to get non-problematic silver. I'll have to check that out. :)

Cute ring! I am biased because I recevied this exact silver ring as one of my Christmas gifts from my BF last year. We call it "baby bling" because it is so cute. Actually, I am wearing it now and that .02 diamond really sparkles, she will love it!!

How sweet! I have 2 boys so I'll never be able to do that. My 10 year old already makes fun of me b/c Im always taking pictures of my rings, etc. Boys just don't understand!! I hope your daughter loves her ring!

Here's a couple of photos of my daughter's ring. She really loves it. And yes, getting a diamond ring from Tiffany was a big hit. Quite worth it!![]()

Thanks everyone! I would highly recommend this ring as an affordable present for anyone you want to show you love them. It's about the same price as an ipod, a new bike, or a couple of new outfits/shoes. For me, it was a nicer way to celebrate her birthday than getting her some Hollister and Rocket Dogs!
