Good morning on another Monday! I hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving celebrations!
The recently announced royal couple, Prince William and Kate Middleton, are finally engaged after 8 years of dating. For the last year, the two have been denying rumors of engagement… but last month during a vacation to Kenya they made it official. Prince William’s influential mother, Princess Diana, was able to play a very special part in this all. The 18-carat white gold oval blue sapphire engagement ring, enhanced with fourteen diamonds was the very same ring Prince Charles gave to Princess Diana when they decided to get married.
Colored center stones are in! Below are rings similar to that of Kate Middleton’s engagement ring…
This Tiffany & Co. engagement ring is absolutely gorgeous, yet untraditional. The setting for this spectacular sapphire was carefully designed to highlight its deeply saturated color. This ring is shown with an oval sapphire, half-moon and round brilliant diamonds in platinum.
This Harry Winston micropave engagement ring with a cushion-cut sapphire center stone and pave diamonds, set in platinum is another ring I would not mind seeing on my finger!
This three stone engagement ring is crafted of solid 950 platinum. The natural blue sapphire oval-cut center stone is accented by 2 high quality natural round diamonds. This ring is available at Weston Fine Jewelry .
This ring is a bit more detailed compared to the others. This 14 carat cushion-cut natural sapphire is surrounded by round diamonds with heart-shaped side stones and milgrain edging. You can find this ring at Jared’s, in the Le Vian collection.
Have a great rest of the week and good luck with all of your Christmas shopping!
Love,
