Very cool my man. Is it for a special reason, perchance? Or just because you can?

Now, think before you answer. What kind of ring do you think that is? :D

Quite ornate. I like it. Looks like an ancient mystical artifact you'd find out of a fantasy movie or book.

A very nice one. It could be for anything at all. I have suspicions, but still.

I don't know about anyone else but as for myself... I've hacked into the wee camera on top of your computer, and I wait, and I wait till your closed eye and typing... then I pounce!

That said I'd comment on the ring but, well, it's just so gorgeous, it really is, whomever it is for is very lucky (and no I can't believe I just said that, but I love pretty things).

I think the better question is, why are you typing with your eyes closed?

Have a very nice day.

because sometimes I hit replay, and close my eyes, composing the words that I will type in my head, and not allowing the error's that I know will crop up to interfer with my thoughts, also it helps with the migrains.

Oh, something to note about it, because it maybe kinda hard to see, is that there are 3 side diamonds on each side. They get kinda lost in the design.

Smooth gold rings are most often wedding rings.

Unless I'm misunderstanding you.

That ring is absolutly beautiful!

And what my brother Tranan said is, that it is quite common that the engagement and the weddingring is plain gold here in Sweden, but it is not uncommon that the weddingring has one or more stones in it.

I know it is. I remember internet window-shopping with you a while back for this type of ring. :D

The red string looks to be a bit of lint.

And nice ring, Beowulf. You're right about the stones being hidden, but that's no huge deal. Looks excellent and I'm sure she'll love it. :)

Lint. I'm not actually bringing the ring box with me. It's a bit of a give away. It's actually in some red felt at the moment, which is where the red lint came from.

I think it should be like that; the main stone should be the focus, the side stones are on the side for a reason. They add an extra bit of sparkle but shouldn't detract from the solitaire stone.
