Treated myself to 50th bday! Never married. Just bought a beautiful european cut ring to wear on my right hand.

Congratulations on your beautiful new ring!
 
Thanks so very much! Mixed emotions. I feel guilty on such a splurge but I do fall in love every time I look at it! I treat myself to jewelry for every milestone bday. Can’t wait for a man to buy it for me at this point!

Here is another purchase, age 35 Garnet and mine cut halo 39010F24-2563-45E4-87BF-3DC00D94E4A0.jpeg

Never feel guilty. It is your money, you earned it and if you get enjoyment from seeing the flash on your hand as a recognition of a life well lived then good. And this way you get exactly what your heart desires versus hoping someone else will pick the "right" stone or setting or having to negotiate when you don't love it.

You should do a self-given milestone birthday thread! I think lots of us have bought ourselves gifts that others in our lives (partners, parents) wouldn't.
 
You GO GIRL!
Its a stunning ring and well deserved by you for you.
It is money well spent, it’s an investment in ongoing joy and pleasure when you gaze down on that beauty.
No amount of looking and loving will wear it out.
Enjoy.
Start saving for your next milestone gift :dance:
 
Wow!!! :kiss2::kiss2::kiss2:More pictures of this one, please! And beautiful hands!

How did you end up selecting this stone and setting, if you want to share?

So happy that this brings you so much joy to wear and look at, and love that you made this purchase just for you!
 
Good for you!!! Wear your beautiful rings in good health. May they bring you much happiness.

Hoping posting specs here is ok to do. I found this ring at a local, family jewelry store. Know just a little history- a woman who inherited the ring sold it because she likes really plain and simple jewelry and would never wear it. It was her grandmother’s. The jeweler estimates the ring is 19th century. It is 1.5 carats, K,

Thanks for your support!!! Damn straight, I agree on all you said and it will help me stay out of TJ Maxx and Homegoods…for awhile. Lol
 
OMG wow wow wow. Good for you! Share more pictures, it is incredible

Holy cow, I just enlarged your profile pic and your ring is a stunner!!
 
Very stunning on you! You did good! Is the ring in platinum?

It's a beautiful ring and looks lovely on you! I am all for a person buying their own special pieces. I think it's a fabulous gift to yourself for a big birthday. I often think that if we wait for someone else to buy us something special, whether big or small, we may be waiting a while!
 
Dear Lord woman you are on a roll! Two spectacular, gorgeous rings- I am smitten with both. If this is how you roll when you turn 50, look out world. The best is yet to come.
