My ruby engagement ring just arrived and i'm obsessed!!

The color of this ruby engagement ring is insane, it literally looks like it’s glowing in the sunlight. I wasn’t sure about choosing a ruby over a diamond at first, but now I’m so glad I did!

round brilliant diamond vs other shapes, which one should I choose?

Hey brides, I’ve been doing some research on engagement rings and keep coming across the round brilliant diamond as the most popular choice. I understand it’s known for its sparkle and classic look, but I’m still unsure if it’s the best option for me in terms of value, size appearance, and overall style. For those who have bought or own a round brilliant diamond, do you think it’s worth the premium compared to other shapes? Are there any tips on what to prioritize (cut, clarity, etc.) when choosing one?

Lab grown marquise diamond sizing question for short fingers

I tried on a few shapes and the lab grown marquise diamond looked really pretty but also kind of long on my hand. My ring size is small and I dont want it to look like it is taking over my finger. Do people usually go smaller on carat with this shape or just pick a different ratio. Any advice from someone who wear theirs daily?

Diamond eternity band versus half eternity for someone who is clumsy

I am stuck between a diamond eternity band and a half eternity because i bump my hands into everything. My worry is stones on the bottom will get scratched up fast or feel rough when i grab things. I also type a lot and do dishes so comfort is a big deal. If you have worn a diamond eternity band for a while did you end up loving it or quietly switching to something simplier?
