Wedding gift from my in-laws

[luv2sparkle]

OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!You are one lucky girl and you MIL sounds like a treasure! I think she will encourage her son to take after his father, what a sweet
tradition. I have promised my jewelry to my daughter and never thought about sons wives (have 4 sons!) I wouldnt change a thing either!

 

[Nomsdeplume]

WOW!! Lucky girl!

 

[vanderaf]

My jaw just hit the floor!!!!!!!!Sapphires are my favorite and that setting is just perfect! I would wear it proudly everyday. I hope you keep it as it is. It''s just stunning!

 

[diamondseeker2006]

Wow.. The diamonds are so crisp and icy. This is perfection when I think of
ballerina style rings. More pictures please!!!!!

woooooow, it's STUNNING! it totally reminds me of Princess Diana's ring...so timeless and classy. i hope you keep the ring the way it is...it's perfect! what an awesome present and how sentimental. seriously, if your DH takes after your FIL, you MUST post pics. even if he isn't, tell him to get some pointers from his dad or ask where he gets his jewelry.

makes me wonder if BF's parents will be as generous whenever we get married...

Hello everyone! I have to convey all your compliments to my in-laws!! It was sunny here today so I took a couple more pictures. But first..

beechezz: Thank you so much. Yes, am keeping my fingers & toes crossed that my father-in-law has passed on his wonderful genes (in that ONE particular aspect) to my hubby. To be fair, I think he has..cos my brother-in-law gave a 2 carat solitaire to his gf as a promise ring. Can u imagine the size of her engagement ring when it comes around?!?!

Dannielle: Thank you!

Cinygenit: Appreciate your compliments. And worry not, that ring stays as it is!

Sharon101: Thanks! Yup, GIGANTIC is the word! We had to reduce it by 2 sizes when we received it from my in-laws. My father-in-law is a total keeper. I have seen of his gifts to my mother-in-law; droolsworthy!

Ckrickett: Thank you!

Amethyste: Thank you for educating me on Ballerina settings! I had absolutely no idea of the setting till I read your comments. I need to do more research…I have to agree with u; am definitely not to going the setting of this ring. Your beautiful colored stone is gorgeous!!

Burberrygirl: Thank you! I love your ring; do you wear it as an engagement ring?

Atroop711: Thank you! What a beautiful baby in your avatar!

Tyty333: Thank you! You have to tell me more..what is a diamond-by-the-yard necklace? Maybe, it can be a X’mas project?! Am going to keep the ring as it is but as my hubby puts it-Dreaming is free!!! You definitely piqued my interest in Princess Di’s ring and I will attach a few pictures to highlight both rings.

Princessplease: Thank you!

Catmom: Thank you! I have to share your “So many sparklies…so little time!” with my hubby..

Geckodani: Thank you!

Gemgirl: Thank you! I am so tempted by your ideas of putting the sapphire and a halo!hehe Pictures of Princess’ Di’s ring to follow…

LaurenThePartier: Thank you for your kind words and I will keep the ring well. I have taken more pictures of the setting so enjoy!

Bebe: Thank you! You seem to like the ballerina setting a lot! I have to admit that I know nothing about ballerina setting and colored stones.

Jolfier: Thank you!

Ams0124: Thank you! More pictures to follow..i promise!

Luv2sparkle: Thank you! I think all parents think alike! After we announced our engagement, my father-in-law asked my hubby – have you prepared a ring? He was so worried that my hubby did not!!! Looks like u will be getting busy to “extend
” your collection for your daughters-in-law!

Kribbie: Thank you!

Burberrygirl: Thank you! I love your ring; do you wear it as an engagement ring?

Oh thanks!

I''m almost 19, so I''m definitely not married yet. I just LOVE family pieces. My gpa left me a 1.80ct VVS2 E color diamond solitaire. It''s my favorite because of the meaning and family history behind the ring. I have to say I am in love with your ring. I can''t wait to get a sapphire of my own!

 

[MishB]

That is a stunning ring, you are a very lucky girl. First to have such a beautiful piece of jewellery, and secondly because you seem to have a really close relationship with your new family. I''m in awe of the ring.

 

[cleokizzy]

holy!!!! you are soooo lucky!!!

are you going to have it reset? i hope not because it''s beautiful as it is!

 

[MichelleCarmen]

Beautiful ring!!!

 

[UCLABelle]

HOLY HOLY! That ring is HUGE AND BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a sweet gift!!!

 

[blackberry16]

Wow. That is beautiful I would be so proud to wear such a meaningful piece.

 

[Kelli]

You are a lucky lucky lady! It''s gorgeous!

 

[chiquitapet]

That ring is absolutely amazing!! I wouldn''t change a thing about it!!

 

[Lynnie]

Wow!!! Wanna trade MIL''s ???

Beautiful ring... absolutely stunning

 

[joelly]

Wow, thats just perfect. No need to change anything. I totally love it. This is even prettier than Princess Diana''s e-ring.

 

[purselover]

What a gorgeous ring!

 

[livinginsg]

Thank u everyone! I am not going to change a thing about this ring!

I wish that i get to wear it more often though. It deserves more sunshine than it is getting now!

 

[Amethyste]

Maybe assign a day or 2 a week where you wear it instead of your wedding set - I used to do that... Like on Sunday and thursday, i would wear my sapphire ring. When I'd put back on my wedding set, it looked so good and vice versa! Spice is the variety of life!

ETA: BTW, thank you so much for your kind words about my yellow diamond
