Going to dig up this old thread.... Dig dig dig...
I did end up getting a very nice Gelin Abaci tension ring for my fiancée, model
TR-005 in 18K white gold. I sent the jeweler (not the one in the link) a Canadian diamond for mounting and the whole thing looks stunning.
The wedding is coming up on April 24th in Lagos, Portugal and we're looking at wedding bands now. At least starting to look.
Just looking through the links for all the non-previous metal rings that were posted earlier. Has anyone come upon any other interesting designs? She'll likely get something made of gold, but I'd like to get something that looks nice but is more resilient and lesser cost (rather spend the extra cash on our new home right now to tell you the truth).
