I have my sapphire e-ring!

These tanzanite earrings from Paraiba International show what the stone looks like when it''s daylight but not direct sunlight.

Under halogens, my sapphire goes more lavendery like this sapphire from Planetary Gems.

Thanks, Diamond*Dana and Legra. My fiance said the jeweler should have some photos ready by Monday, so hopefully I can get my hands on the pictures to post something better than my own shots.

Congratulations on your engagement!

Your ring turned out drop dead gorgeous - I remember when you got the stone, I thought then it was going to be a knock out and I was not wrong!

I absolutely love it, and I like the bezel a lot, it has a gorgeous profile.

What a pretty ring! Congrats on the engagment as well as getting off the list! What a nice proposal story as well, keep us posted on how all the planning is going! I had a dream recently about getting engaged and the best most exciting first thing I was thinking after all the initial excitment waned a bit was "yay I get to go dress shopping for the first time!", so have fun doing that as well!

 

[AustenNut]

Thanks, Yssie and Kberrie! I''m really glad I got the bezel for it, even though it took about a day to get used to as I''m so used to having prong-set rings.

Kberrie, I''ve already started sending some dress pictures to my mom and sister (lady of honor) about the wedding dress and getting feedback. But I''m probably going to get a bridesmaid dress in white/cream so I don''t have to go dress shopping as early as I might otherwise, which will give me a bit more time to lose some weight before getting the size dress.

Wishing you and hubby to be, health and happiness.
