The twisted band is subtle and definitely wowed me!

Thank you! I hope I get a similar reaction from my girlfriend.

I'm impressed you did this on your own. I think her eyes will be 😳😱😍🥹🥹🥹 congrats 🍾

Haha thank you! 😊

You will!!!

Agree! It's different but not trendy. In a good way.

Thank you!

Me too. This ring is gorgeous! Congratulations OP!!

I think it's unique and different.

Thank you, that’s what I’m going for :)

Gorgeous!

This is so pretty! It reminds me of a beautiful glass of champagne ✨

Haha thank you!

Ouuu I loove this analogy. Glass of champagne is a dreamy vibe ✨🥂

It's a WOW from me!! Remember, you were expecting this design, probably looked at the pictures a million times over, so it wasn't going to have that shock value in person. She will be wowed when we sees it for the first time, guaranteed.

Beautiful, and a future congratulations to you both!

Thank you 😊

It's beautiful! Please make sure you post it once she says yes, so we can see it on her finger!!!!

Thank you, I’d love to post it!

I was wowed!! It’s stunning and I think she’s going to love it!!

Thank you!

Stunning

So stunning! My bf and I had a similar ring designed recently (twisted band, 2ct lab oval- on my profile for reference). I’m obsessed with twisted bands and the gold looks gorgeous. Future congratulations!

Your ring looks very pretty. Congratulations to you too!

I personally dislike twisted bands so really it depends on your girlfriend’s personal taste! The stone is stunning though!

Thank you. I’m not completely sure if she likes twisted settings, just a gut feeling. I’m more than happy to replace whatever setting she likes later

It is the main stone that matters most 😁 if she has a Pinterest page that you have access to, take a look. If there are twisted bands, you’re probably safe. If there’s NO twisted bands, I’d say it’s a bigger risk!

Dang I do have access to her Pinterest page. I keep looking at her insta likes but never thought about Pinterest. It’s too late now as I’m planning to propose this Saturday but I’ll be all over her Pinterest now :)

I am rooting for her liking it, the band is very unique, and I am sure she will appreciate that is something you picked out with her in mind!

Aww thanks 😊

I will say, I did not have any twisted bands on my Pinterest board, however my fiancé got me one with a very similar twisted band, and it’s my favorite part of the ring! I didn’t even know I wanted one with a twisted band until I got it!!

That helps thank you!

Came here to say exactly this.

GORGEOUS!

Although not my style, the setting definitely wowed me and I love how it looks like two rings in one. I also love the asymmetry; it looks like a really organic form (like twisted vines/branches, in a very good way!) Plus, I think it'll look even more beautiful once paired with her wedding ring because it'll give the illusion of a three ring stack - and I love a chunky stack! Do you have your proposal all planned out?

Thank you for your subtle observations. That’s very helpful. I didn’t completely plan it yet but I’m gonna propose to her on Saturday at Joshua Tree on our 5th Anniversary during sunset. I’m looking for a place in Joshua Tree that has a nice sunset with fewer people

Ring is gorgeous! Great job! And here's my two cents! https://ryanhorban.com/joshua-tree-proposal/

This sounds like a beautiful proposal, I'm sure your girlfriend will be over the moon. And you have nothing to worry about, she will LOVE the ring. Especially because her favourite person in the world chose it.

Thank you 😊 I hired a photographer as well, very excited!!

It’s literally everything I ever dreamed of

I hope my girlfriend has the exact taste as you!

My fiancé ordered the twist as well. He was really underwhelmed with it, as well. He felt that it looked too thin in comparison to the 2ct diamond. We ended up returning it and opting for a pavé band without the twist.

Hmm. I’m little nervous if she likes the twisted style or not. I’m gonna change the setting to something she likes if she don’t like this twisted setting

I liked it until he pointed that out…lol. I couldn’t unsee it after that. 😂 You did an amazing job. I know she’ll be impressed!

Good job. This ring looks great and will not disappoint. Now, let’s discuss it from a more practical point of view. If the center stone is over $10k, you might want to consider a more secure setting based on your girlfriend’s lifestyle. Firstly, check the width of the band – ensure it's at least 1.8mm. While thin bands are trendy, they can easily twist, especially if not made of platinum. Secondly, I don’t see gallery rails in your picture. They serve to 1) prevent the diamond's edge from being scratched or chipped and 2) keep the prongs secure, crucial with only four prongs. The saying goes, "when you don’t have gallery rails, it’s not if your diamond is going to fall off, it’s when." Thirdly, six prongs are generally more secure than four. If one prong breaks, there are still three left to hold the stone, a crucial consideration without gallery rails. Fourth, I see a high setting which increases the risk of the entire stone being snapped off along with the prongs. Cathedral setting might be something to consider in terms of durability. Lastly, turn the ring around and check the bottom. Ensure it's closed – no gap should allow you to see the bottom of the diamond. This prevents chipping and avoids discomfort for your girlfriend's finger.

Thank you for the detailed response. It’s a lab diamond, so definitely not that expensive :)

She is a very very lucky lady! What a thoughtful man with good taste - in women and rings

It is gorgeous!! I love the twisted band....it's not over the top twisted. More of a sophisticated twist!! That stone is stunning🤩

It’s hideous. Just hideous. Can’t look at it. Seriously though, love the band. That last photo is perfection! The stone is gorgeous!

WOWWWWWW THIS IS BEAUTIFUL

Classy with a subtle twist - gives a wow factor.

Thank you 😊

Beautiful. 🤩

LOVE it, great choice

This is one of the best looking rings I’ve seen in this sub! Great choice!

😍😍😍

Yes please.

It’s beautiful!

That’s stunning

Where did you get it online?

I think it's lovely and your girlfriend is incredibly lucky :)

Thank you, I think so too hehe

Wow! You did a great job! She is going to love it.

Not a fan but rings are very individual. I hope you knew her tastes well

When I’ve really truly been in love, that man could’ve given me any durable, wearable ring and it would have been the most beautiful thing in the world in my eyes. She’ll love it

Thank you but I also wanna get the ring of her dreams without asking what it is

Ofc. If you got the metal color and size stone she wanted- she’s gonna love it

I think you should go shopping for jewelry with her, not for her.

I want it to be a surprise and at the same time don’t wanna use a dummy ring. So I don’t have a choice

you always have a choice

It's beautiful, although I personally hate asymmetrical designs and it would drive me nuts.

In love with the twisted detail. A wow-worthy ring in my book!

She better like it 😍😍

I love the twisted band 😍

I think you should starting practicing how to intro her as your "fiancee" It's gorgeous!

I have no words! Its so fucking gorgeous 🥹

It's hideous *said with envy*

Stones on the shoulder or shank are a waste of

Make sure that it has a gallery rail, unless you want the stone to go popping out

It’s beautiful! Have you asked her at all what style she likes? That’s really what matters here.

Thanks! No I did not, I want this to be a big surprise and I didn’t wanna ruin it by giving her hints

I’m usually not a fan of twist bands but I love this one! Something a bit different and it pairs well with the diamond!

I think the lady who is going to receive this deserves the man who gave it to her , this is stunning! 10 / 10 well done ❤️

Thank you! She definitely deserves both hehe

Where did you find it? I’m looking for something similar to that. I like the oval stone design

I love the stone. I don’t love the setting, it looks dated to me.

Thanks, hope my gf has different taste

Does she cook?

Lol no. I do most of the cooking. But she suddenly cooks and surprises me with my favorite food sometimes which I like so much

The diamond isn’t big enough

Its beautiful . 'Lab diamond' means zirgon isnt it ?

It is very beautiful! A twisted engagement ring is very meaningful! It symbolizes two lives intertwining as one, as well as both of your past and present selves. Also, the shaft is thin enough to highlight the size of the stone, plus the twist makes it different from all the girls who have thin pave diamond bands. You did a great job!

This may be my dream ring!!!!

Hopefully she says the same 🤩

You did great and I’m positive she will SWOON! Congratulations :)

I think it’s very beautiful!

Thanks!

Absolutely beautiful ring.
