.Brother''s Proposal Ring...

[DiaDiva]

My brother proposed to his girlfriend last week using this ring that my jeweller and I helped him create. Don't have the proposal details but here's the ring...

Specs:
2.35 ct ruby (untreated)
0.98 ctw diamonds

That's me modelling the ring the night he picked it up before they flew to Bali.

It''s gorgeous!!

That is a beauty! What are the specs on the haol stone?Are there two, three rows? I have a large ring that I would love to do like that. Can you explain as well as you can how you designed the halo effect? You did a great job!

 

[Kaleigh]

It''s stunning. You did a great job!!!

 

[DiaDiva]

Thanks, everyone!!! I really liked the ring and am now contemplating getting a ruby for myself. Argh...too much bling and too little money....

There is only one row of halo surrounding the ruby. Here is a close-up...I didn''t have time to take too many shots that night plus it was late so the lighting is not great...hopefully you can see better with this one...

Wow, if your brother''s girlfriend loves rubies, she''ll love this ring. It''s really very eye catching.

I''m loving this ring. My daughters birthstones are ruby and diamond. I would LOVE to have something like this for a mothers/RHR.

Very elegant. A proposal in Bali! How romantic!

Wow, that is definitely one of the prettiest rubies I have seen. Gorgeous setting! I hope she didn''t mind having someone else wear her ring before she did though!
