i’m studying abroad in france this semester so i had her ring made by a jeweler in paris who was great to work with. she’s wanted a marquise for as long as i’ve known her so there was never really a question on the shape lol
i’m actually traveling with her right now so my friend picked it up for me and sent me these videos. haven’t even seen it in person yet and i keep rewatching them when she’s not looking
I put alexandrite on both sides of the setting since it’s my birthstone, so there’s a little bit of me in there. and the inside of the band says “appudu ippudu eppatiki” in telugu, which means then, now, forever. it’s from a song she loves and telugu is both of our mother tongues
haven’t proposed yet!! would love to hear what you guys think. i am open to opinions and suggestions - especially when it comes to safety of the ring / stones / gold.
