melina Posted May 14, 2005 Posted May 14, 2005 Hi Just wondering if anyone has an opinion on Tiffany's Lucida engagement rings.... Thanks! :-)
surely Posted May 14, 2005 Posted May 14, 2005 I love the way the tiffany rings look and i feel that they are a good quality. However, as I am sure you know, compare a lot before you have to pick a ring that cost that much. A good place to go to compare rings is theknot.com. Have fun!
Author melina Posted May 15, 2005 Author Posted May 15, 2005 Thanks for your advise! The story: I found this note "sort of lying around in my boyfriend's stack of things" with all sorts of diamond info incl. Tiffany's Lucida rings. Now, I had a look at them online and just don't really know whether a ring like that would look good on me. I must sound really really spoilt but let's face it these are expensive things and you should get what you ABSOLUTELY love!! Then again, I really wouldn't want to go shopping with him but find it really sweet that he wants it to be a surprise. How about keeping the diamond but changing the setting if I really didn't like it. Guys, would you be offended if your girlfriend did that? Another thing: I have quite fine fingers. Anyone knows what type of women Lucida looks best at. Hope you don't find my questions stupid!
Artifact Posted May 16, 2005 Posted May 16, 2005 check out the forums on pricescope.com for ring information- lots of women have posted their pictures wearing many different rings as well. it might give you an idea for size, comparable rings, etc.
billybadass36 Posted May 16, 2005 Posted May 16, 2005 Tiffany rings are ridiculously overpriced - although you are guaranteed exceptional quality, you can do just as well with a non-branded setting that's identical to *Tiffany*. What a lot of grooms do is buy a diamond that's set in a temporary setting that's only like $100 or even free with the diamond, and then they go shopping for the setting together after the fact. I didn't go that route. I stole one of my now-fiancee's rings and got the size checked. Bought a diamond and had a Gelin-Abaci tension set ring made. These are really cool, but you cannot size them, and they're custom jobs, so it takes a while. I really wanted to surprise my fiancee, and I was pretty much on my own. If you've been together with your bf for a semi-long period of time he should know what your style is. My feelings wouldn't have been too terribly hurt if she wanted to change settings because this is a ring she's going to be wearing for a long, long time.
