My ridiculously generous husband of 8 years has been wanting to upgrade my ring, but I wasn't sure (I'm very attached to the original 1.5 oval he gave me). He presented me with this one, asking me to just "give it a try". Okay, I tried, and I decided I LOVE it!!! I wasn't with him when he bought it, but he said it's slightly over 3 carat center with each side stone being just under one carat. It is beautiful. I did insist on keeping my original eternity band with it, I'm definitely not going to be changing that. I can always wear my old ring if I'm feeling nostalgic, right?
