So it was 42 years and a few days since I met the love of my life and last year we reached our 40th wedding anniversary. Of all the decisions I've ever made, that was one of the best. It's informed every decision I've made since then and the entire shape and course of my life, and for that, I'm grateful to the most wonderful man in the world - my husband.

We celebrated our special day in a number of ways and, of course, DH included 2 beautiful jewelry pieces for me. The first and most important is a gorgeous solitaire - a 1.09 E SI1, 1/9 representing our anniversary, and we looked long and hard to find a stone with those numbers and perfect dimensions. DH had it set for me in a platinum collet setting with diamond wraps and a special engraving on the inside. The basket is made in the shape of holly leaves, and in the photos I'm wearing it with my Leon Mege eternity, which was part of my DH's 25th anniversary gift to me.

I love this set. It's safe and secure, understated and elegant and beautifully made. Thank you AS ALWAYS to David Klass Jewelry - who let me make this ring, remake it, then remake it again after I simply didn't like my own original design. Their patience is unmatched and their workmanship deeply satisfying for those of us with a picky attitude and demanding standards.

Interestingly - my experience with Leon 15 years ago was equally friendly and without issue, and these 2 rings together represent beauty and longevity - an apt way to describe the central love of my life.

Always yours, Timmy. <3

I'll post the other piece tomorrow when I've had a chance to get some photos.
