My good friend’s boyfriend Tim, surprised me this afternoon by showing me the vintage engagement rings he had gotten for my friend Barb. They were on loan to show me, until he got my opinion and I have to say, the first one he showed me was the total pick!\u00a0 It is simply beautiful. When I say the word “simply” it is meant in just that sense and meaning. Barb isn’t one of those women who like big, gaudy jewelry. She a sort of old fashion and elegant women, who prefers beautiful, but not flashy things.<\/p>\n
This ring is perfect for her, and it shows that Tim knows her very well. By no means is it plain. The only word to describe it, is it has the look of true vintage engagement rings in a timeless era, if that makes sense. It is a three sided classic design, in platinum. There is the center diamond, and diamonds on the band on three sides. The center diamond is a princess cut and it looks like it is being held up with a round diamond in a square under the center stone. It’s totally Barb in the style also.<\/p>\n
The fun part is, my dear friend doesn’t have a clue Tim got it. I’m sure they will get married, but Tim wanted this to be a total surprise and I also know that she will be so happy. Now it makes me want to look at vintage engagement rings, and just wear it on my right hand. I’ve thought about it in the past, and even Barb told me I should do this, since I have no plans or desire yet to get married but love the look of some of them.\u00a0 I don’t see a reason why after my friends get married, I shouldn’t have one just because I’m not engaged.<\/p>\n
