We’ve spent the past few weekends going to jewelers trying to find a new design for Chiara’s engagement ring. The stones in my mother’s ring are lovely, but the daisy configuration is not to our tastes.
The trouble is that the emerald, as gorgeous as it is, is badly damaged, and nobody really wants to set it as is, nor do they really want to cut it.
We’ve worked with our current favorite jeweler to design a new ring, and we're both really excited. So much so that after leaving to “think about it” after the final pass, we fought traffic back there to put down a deposit to start the process so we can have it before we leave for the East Coast.
I can't wait to see the final result!
