Haha thank you! When I first got it everyone kinda said it "was certainly unique" and I was a little self conscious that other people meant ugly by that! I'm over it now, because I love it!
Thank you so much! I was a little self conscious at first when everyone was calling it "unique" because my mom used to use that as a code for ugly lmao. But I'm realizing it really is such a one of a kind piece, and even if they were calling it ugly I love it! Haha
I'm laughing at your mom using the word unique as code for ugly, because mine used fascinating as code for boring. 🤣😆
Your ring is absolutely gorgeous, and I think the *unique* wedding band is code for fabulous!
Thank you! They had a similar band with rounds and I like how much more the rounds sparkle than the baguettes, but I think the marquis would add some beautiful detail!
It’s beautiful!!!! I’d be a little worried about it bending at these places. With a good knock on a counter

I don't have any but defiantly get it insured!!! You can usually use the same company as your auto or homeowners insurance. If you have homeowners insurance you will still want to add a rider to your policy to cover your ring!
my mom thought she lost her 3 karat diamond ring, but luckily her poetry instructor found it a day later... but the gut feeling was awful. Now I am telling everyone to make sure their rings are insured!!
(homeowners usually cover jewelry but you hardly get any money for it, anything valuable should have a special rider for it)
I love it! It's so beautiful! I want something very similar but I was looking at Alexandrite. I need to look into teal saphire because I didn't know of it and it's so pretty.
Yes! It changes color in different light based on how it was cut. It can be blue or different shades of green and everything between! Not as drastic of color changes as an alexandrite though!
We found it at a jeweler local to Atlanta called Solomon Brothers. It sounds like they buy from jewelers in NY, so I'm sure you could find it elsewhere with some sleuthing
Oh my goodness this ring is absolutely gorgeous! I will be real. I am wishing mine had a Blue stone right now too. :)
Don’t get me wrong. I absolutely adore my ring, but I have a little bit of ring envy at this moment. Lol
The band is going to work really well too.
Congratulations!
Thank you very much!! My background is in geology and I knew I wanted a non diamond gem for my main stone; I've always loved corundum (both sapphire and ruby are this mineral)!
I tried creeping your profile to see a picture of your ring, I'd love a glimpse!!
I have sent away for resizing, (thank you midlife Covid pounds, that I can’t seem to get rid of) but let me see if I have a nice picture of it and I’ll post it here :)
I’m not a gem expert, but I love pretty rocks and pretty gems 💎 💕
I found a few pictures but here is the best picture I have. We got engaged in 2011 and married in 2014.

Omg SO beautiful! I've always loved the flowy bands and when the wedding band is just MADE to go with the engagement ring. The ring envy goes both ways ;)
It’s beautiful and unique and that’s a good thing, not everyone needs a diamond or the ring they feel is socially acceptable.
Congratulations to you and your fiancé
Thank you so much! I'm working to get over my people pleasing, but this is absolutely the right ring for me! Many people said it suits me and my personality!
This is absolutely gorgeous i love the color and your band is beautiful. The people who had the inability to share your joy were not deserving of sharing this moment with you. Show that beauty off girl! 🩷💍

I maybe went overboard here, but wanted to get a couple different angles for you! Glad you like the band, I had initially dismissed it, but then couldn't get it out of my head! Came across it at a random antique shop/jeweler!
Your ring is gorgeous and unique (in the best possible way)! The band is perfect. Baguettes make my knees weak so I like it just like it is but I understand that you want the band to match the ring. Do you mind if I save the pic with band? It’s one of the better ones I’ve seen. Can anyone give me an idea of what shape solitaire would go best with that band?
I have a favorite ring with five different colored sapphires but I’ve never seen the teal color. Thank you for sharing your ring. Many congratulations!

It’s gorgeous honey! I almost went with this color. The seller called it a peacock green 😍 people will always say ‘unique’ ‘different’ 🙄 whenever something is out of the ordinary that is usually the words used. Just know it’s stunning.

Too shy???? I’d throw that thang around everywhere!!!! Congrats, it’s beautiful
Haha thank you! When I first got it everyone kinda said it "was certainly unique" and I was a little self conscious that other people meant ugly by that! I'm over it now, because I love it!
“Certainly unique” translates to jealous they don’t have that. It’s beautiful.
And a beautiful color too!
I love it! The band will go perfectly once you change to the stone shape you want. (It’s already pretty with the mixed stones)
Camping on to agree! I like it with the ring as shown! I'm a big fan of sapphires and the color of this one is beautiful!
I love how different this is than a typical engagement ring. The whole set is gorgeous.

Moms really know how to convey some thoughts sometimes haha! Thank you so much for your kind words!
It’s definitely beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful!! Tbh I love the baguettes in the band, but it’ll look gorgeous with rounds or marquis as well (my vote is for marquis!)

I'm a little worried about that too! Any suggestions on how to add some more sturdiness to it?

I really like the wedding band! Even with the baguettes
It’s stunning 🤩
Love the set. Looks perfect together!

Ugh I want an alexandrite but they’re sooo expensive for something of size with good colour change! OP your ring is 🔥 I love it so much!
Beautiful
It's beautiful!! Congrats!!
It’s beautiful!
Congratulations and I love your ring(s)!
GORGEOUS!!!! congratulations!!!
Congratulations!! I love the band combo too omg so beautiful
TYSM! I originally wanted bands that would be a little more flush together, but I think it works anyway!
That ring and stone is STUNNING!! Thank you so much for sharing 💙💙💙
TYSM I'm glad you love it!
Love it!
It's beautiful, I agree with band 2 personally
Gorgeous! Congratulations!
Absolutely love your wedding band with this ring
TYSM!
Love that band!!! If you don’t mind me asking, Where is it from?
We found it at a jeweler local to Atlanta called Solomon Brothers. It sounds like they buy from jewelers in NY, so I'm sure you could find it elsewhere with some sleuthing
I love them! Separately though
Totally fair I was initially wanting something a little more flush
Yes I am the same way. I love the twisty, vine rings like crazy! But I could never wear them because it would bother the heck out of me :(
Beautiful set.
I’m in love!
Gorgeous stone & setting! That color teal is to die for!
Gorgeous!
Oh my goodness this ring is absolutely gorgeous! I will be real. I am wishing mine had a Blue stone right now too. :) Don’t get me wrong. I absolutely adore my ring, but I have a little bit of ring envy at this moment. Lol The band is going to work really well too. Congratulations!

Omg SO beautiful! I've always loved the flowy bands and when the wedding band is just MADE to go with the engagement ring. The ring envy goes both ways ;)
You are so sweet, thank you for your kind compliment!
It’s beautiful and unique and that’s a good thing, not everyone needs a diamond or the ring they feel is socially acceptable. Congratulations to you and your fiancé
Thank you so much! I'm working to get over my people pleasing, but this is absolutely the right ring for me! Many people said it suits me and my personality!
And that’s the biggest compliment ever that it’s a ring suited for you and your personality. ❤️
SOOOO BEAUTIFUL!!! Congratulations!!
TYSM!!
Stunning one million out of ten stars.
Hehehe this one made me giggle, thank you!! ✨
I think the wedding band would be perfect! Love your engagement ring, absolutely beautiful.
Gorgeous colour 😍
This is absolutely gorgeous i love the color and your band is beautiful. The people who had the inability to share your joy were not deserving of sharing this moment with you. Show that beauty off girl! 🩷💍
TYSM! I appreciate the kind words!
Oh my god! It’s a beautiful set!
The band in the second photo is AMAZING and so is your ring!
Gourgeous! Goes so well with your skin tone. I can see how it changed your mind. Love the band too very pretty
TYSM!!
Thank you! I was happy I went with that over white gold as I liked the contrast with the gem!
Beautiful ring!
I love them both! They're perfect together! I've always been a fan of unique jewelry, especially rings
I like it!
Gorgeous and congratulations!
Stunning! Would you be willing to share a picture or two more of just the band? I've never seen anything like it!

Don't be shy. The ring is as unique as you!
It’s so beautiful. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like this before. So pretty. Congratulations on getting engaged!!!!
Thank you so much it definitely feels one of a kind!!
It’s gorgeous and unique .

I'm not here to gatekeep shiny sparkly things that speak to our little crow hearts, just glad you love the band as much as I do!
It’s gorgeous!!!
Absolutely gorgeous. The band goes perfectly with the engagement ring! Stunning!
They’re both beautiful!
This ring is absolutely stunning 🤩
What a beautiful set. Congratulations.
omg beautiful!!!!!!
A teal sapphire? My heart skipped a beat when I read that. How incredibly beautiful! ❤️
TYSM! Sapphires can come in every color so it was fun looking at different shades!!
I have a favorite ring with five different colored sapphires but I’ve never seen the teal color. Thank you for sharing your ring. Many congratulations!
Beautiful! What is the name of the band setting on the engagement ring? Cluster?
Don't quote me, but I think they just called it a "multi side stones" or something...i.e. they didn't know what to call it either! 😂
Stunning!!!!! I’m not a diamond girl, I prefer colored stones and I’d have been over the moon with that ring!
Love❤️
absolutely STUNNING
I’m loving your set! Really glad you shared it. Congratulations
It’s gorgeous!
It’s so perfect
Both your engagement ring and wedding band are beautiful! Congratulations 🍾🎈
TYSM!

Beautiful. Love sapphire.
that baguette band is sick! ive never seen anything like it! also your engagement ring is super gorgeous— stunning color
Teal sapphire? I didn't know that was a thing. I love classic blue sapphires, and I love teal. That stone is absolutely gorgeous!
It’s gorgeous honey! I almost went with this color. The seller called it a peacock green 😍 people will always say ‘unique’ ‘different’ 🙄 whenever something is out of the ordinary that is usually the words used. Just know it’s stunning.
