I just wanted to give a big thank you for all the work on the ring - it looked even better than I thought it would and my now fiancee loved it!!! The timing was pretty incredible too, as I had planned to go ahead and propose on friday night, without a ring (controversially!) but then to have the ring finished early and literally hours in before the deed was great! So thanks Alice for all your work on the ring and everyone for being cheerful and helpful and encouraging throughout, I appreciate it all!

As I began to delve into the multiple layers of well packaged merchandise I started to feel like I was playing "pass the parcel" at a birthday party!
First the plastic envelope... RIP
Then another layer of plastic wrap... RIP
Then a few layers of bubble-wrap... tossed over my head
Then a big dark blue 1791 box (delicately saved for re-packing purposes)
Then a smaller dark blue 1791 box (again saved for re-packing)
Then a small ring box... which refused to open until I realized it had a tiny (maybe child resistant) lock..
Followed by the Mother Lode! WOW!
Thank you for such a nice piece of art. one that she will never see in a Michael Hill store!
Reviews
Ignite, from the 1791 Diamonds Modena collection, offers a graceful alternative to traditional solitaire diamond engagement rings. With the diamonds channel set into a gorgeous platinum band the design is simple, almost understated, yet lacks nothing in elegance.
As the name Ignite suggests, the diamonds sparkle with fire and brilliance, creating a fabulous wave of shimmering light which is offset perfectly by the rich platinum. The effect is one of tasteful opulence; it is quietly chic rather than fabulously ostentatious.
The channel setting means that the diamonds are securely nestled within the band and there is little danger of losing them for those who lead active, outdoor lifestyles or play a lot of sport. The platinum band is also more hard wearing than traditional gold bands so, again, will appeal to those who work with their hands, as well as those who simply appreciate the exquisite white lustre of platinum.
The Ignite design stands apart from traditional engagement rings with its distinct style. It is not awe inspiring in the manner of large, flashy solitaire diamonds, but nor does it pretend to be. With its clean lines this design offers simple and graceful beauty.
