♥ Broken Engagement Ring
The engagement ring broke and we had to return it. We got a full refund for the ring because the jeweler who sold it to us couldn't fix it. We had an extended warranty on it which required the jeweler to "restore the ring to manufacturer standards" if anything were to happen within the year of purchase. Well lets just say one entire part of the bow came off and could not be found. It happened to be that Vera Wang discontinued designing jewelry pieces, like the signature bow ring, because the designs were structurally weak.
Now Hung and I have been shopping around for another ring. I'm looking at some filigree vintage gemstone rings. Rather quaint and feminine but not too delicate. We're looking to spend 1/5 the price of the previous engagement ring and putting the other 4/5 towards the wedding bands (which we've also begun to shop for).
I'm rather fond of the Moissonite mineral. It's so gorgeous. Moissonite is a mineral that was cultivated off of shards of moissonite found in meteors. We both thought it was pretty cool that this was a space rock. :) So we're looking into some moissonite rings.
It's so hard to decide! :O Wish us luck.
