my ring

dsc_44311

a lot of people have asked me about my engagement ring.  it’s a gorgeous rose cut grey diamond from jewelry designer Kate Szabone.  dlb did real good picking out a ring that was entirely me and I love every little thing about it.  all the speckles in the grey diamond, the way the rose cut makes it sparkle from every angle, and that organic hammered gold band.  if you’re looking for an alternative to a traditional engagement ring, I highly recommend Kate.  she is a fantastic designer and all of her work is beautifully crafted.

    It’s truly a rarity to see such a simple, beautiful ring in an age of overindulgence and boastful women wearing rocks too heavy for dainty fingers. Gorgeous!

    I just posted about these rings the other day! I was wearing a necklace of hers I hadn’t worn in a while and thought I would see what new things she had. Your ring is absolutely gorgeous and timeless – really lovely.
