My cute ebay find!

[ringbling17]

I couldn't resist the urge to bid on this sapphire and diamond engagement ring because I found it to be so cute and adorable. It reminds me a lot of Leota's pinky ring, but with a single band.
It is not my dream 3 carat diamond, but in this case, size doesn't matter. I absolutely love it!!!
I got it yesterday and received it in worn condition, so I still have to have it polished, etc. but it really is so cute!!!
The person I purchased it from had the ring made from www.joden.com as an engagement ring in 2000. By the way, I checked out the site and they have some amazing vintage and art deco pieces.

Specs as per appraisal are-
centerstone- .35 round ceylon sapphire
surrounded by 20 diamonds set common prong totaling .25 ctw.
The setting is 900 Platinum
It also happened to be a perfect fit for my ring finger, but I think I may have it resized to fit my middle finger.

Thanks guys,
I have been wearing it on my ring finger along with another very thin diamond platinum band on my ring finger. They actually match really nice.
The thin diamond band I picked up at a pawn shop about 5 years ago. I was so excited over that purchase because it was inscribed with TRAUB Orange Blossom which I found out is a company that has been making ring since the early 1900's up until the 1950's, I think. The band was also inscribed with July 2nd, 1937 and 900 platinum.
I love thinking that it belonged to someone from so many years ago.
The best thing was that I got it for $90.
Here's a picture!

Here's a picture of how I usually wear them. I am not sure which way I like better.
I don't want people to think I wear two engagement rings on each hand!!

OH Mara, that thin plat. diamond band is just too cool for words. What a find. Can you get a close up on that thing?
And maybe a magnifying glass for the inscription? That's asking alot isn't it?
Wow, what history.
