Warning! Overly wordy explanation...please feel free to skip to the money shots below!
My brother is an amazing human being. That's all I can say unless we have A LOT OF TIME. ok i'll try to cliff note it: At this most recent weekend long 50th bday celebration for him at the beach he was coined Governor of Love. He loves babies and treehouses yet parties like a rock star and went to about 15 proms (I swear...probably where off like a prom dress came from lol) and now sells champagne all over the world. When I had my twins he came up to DC and managed somehow to get me (normally wound tight as a drum, imagine me w infant twins...not pretty) and my husband (wee bit of a homebody and happiest watching animated movies with our kids) and close friends up to a trendy hotel rooftop pool and bar where we were welcomed happily by staff who set up a private little nursing area for me and treated us to a day of R&R that looking back we may not have survived without. It was a leap of faith that we knew we could take with him as the social director
Flash forward a bit and he's turning 50. My mom had a local jeweler make this ring for him after deciding to dismantle an emerald necklace she has but doesn't wear (ugh she really agonized I think but kept it private and came to the decision on her own...if I can figure out how to link it I had a topic on here a while back about that very subject). I think other pieces are in the works but her local jeweler put this together in about a week!
I wish I had stats but good god it's been a whirlwind of champagne and duck fat and well the details escape me but I just wanted to post these pics because I love that ring THIS MUCH and it's right up his alley (to shed some light on his tastes: his favorite gift EVER is a Faberge egg and little carriage his wife gave him). All I heard and can remember is it's a 4.5ct center stone.
Enjoy! And if his daughter will send me her pics I'll show you guys the side view which is cool because it is kind of cathedral (idk if that's the right word).
He loves it
