My soon-to-be Lang Antiques e-ring!

[LittleRiver]

How wonderful that you found a complete ring that makes your heart sing! It is beautiful and has terrific presence on your hand.

 

[Lottie]

What a beautiful ring, it looks perfect on your hand too. Really looking forward to seeing more photos when he pops the questions.

 

[angeline]

That is so beautiful and so unusual! I wish we could see the way the prongs work, it looks really interesting.

And seriously - .65?? no way, it looks like over a carat at least to me. You girls with tiny fingers

Congrats on a wonderful ring and a wonderful engagement to come- soon I hope!

I keep coming back to the pics to look at the details, this ring is so beautiful. I love how it looks classic, yet so deliciously unique all at once. Are there round brilliants on either size of the baguettes?

 

[star sparkle]

vintagelover- I don't think BF will even let me visit it! I'll have to ask him about that one. Not sure I'd want to, though, it might drive me crazy! I'll find you offline and maybe you can email me those pics? Thanks so much!!

LittleRiver- Thanks for the kind words!

Lottie UK- You know that as soon as I can, I'll be having a photo shoot with it and sharing it with all of you! Thank you!

angeline- Yeah, I was shocked when I realized that it was only .65! Looking at it on my hand, I would have guessed at least .8 or a carat. The smallish stone lent to the ring being very affordable, which both myself and BF loved as well. When I can, I'll definitely take more prong pictures!

NEL- I love that about it as well! It's definitely a classic, but I can honestly say I've never seen anything quite like it! There are indeed tiny rounds on either side of the baguettes, one each on either side of the head and then one in the center of each little orange blossom. You can see the details much better in Lang's photos of it, which can be found in their archive here here. Again, I don't think their photos of it are very flattering or do it any justice whatsoever, but you can definitely see the tiny details in them. (The stone is .65 and not .60, they mistyped in their description)




ETA--apparently I was wrong, and it's circa 1940 instead of 1930.

Beautiful ring. It looks very delicate and the center stone is lovely. Also- you're right, it works VERY well with that Simon G band.

Congrats !

Very pretty. I think it looks great with your eternity ring. I like unique wedding sets.

Laila and pregcurious, thanks! Just noticed your replies, but thanks again. I haven't seen it in almost a month, but I look at these pictures everyday and I'm still thrilled!

[star sparkle]

motownmama, vespergirl, ZestfullyBling, Ara Ann, and Tuckins1 - Thank you! I truly appreciate your kind words.


So turns out that I will be able to see and play with my ring for a bit this weekend, as I'm taking it in to the jeweler's for resizing, rhodium plating, and possibly reshanking. This means I can probably get a few more pictures, which I'm super excited about!!

 

[Orchid Lei]

So pretty!

 

[coati]

Oh it is just lovely! Congratulations, and I'm really looking forward to more pics! Gorgeous detail...

 

[D&T]

I've missed this thread earlier, and just watned to say how beautiful the whole ring i! and it looks perfect on you!

 

[star sparkle]

Thank you Orchid Lei, coati, and D&T!!

So it came out to play today and I took a gazillion pictures. I wish my photo taking abilities were better, but you get the general idea. Who's ready?!

 

[star sparkle]

I'll preface by saying that it is cloudy and rainy today, so all of these are indoor pictures. I'm hoping it's sunny for at least a short while tomorrow before it goes away to the jewelers and then back into hiding. Fingers crossed!!

 

[star sparkle]

I swear, it glows from within!

 

[star sparkle]

[star sparkle]

Last couple. I took a lot, but these are really all that turned out decent enough to post. Hoping for sunshine tomorrow for another photo op. Thanks for looking!

 

[renogirl]

Wow! Your ring is simply stunning

 

[stephbolt]

Your ring is amazing! I don't know how you are waiting to have that beauty on your finger!
