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!

Wow, Amazing, Beautiful....these are just a few of the words that describe the beautiful eternity ring that I had the pleasure of designing with the team at 1791 diamonds, Alice in particular. Alice met with us and took the time to get to know the both of us so that she could design a ring that linked both Luke and I together. We got to share this exciting opportunity after winning Bride of The Year 2009. The ring we designed is everything that I had hoped for..not that I had any idea about what I wanted when I first met with Alice, but she was very patient and her quick responses to emails and sending through images made the designing process so much fun, like opening a new present every day :). The whole team were very efficient replying to telephone calls and emails and it was not long before I had a ring that I had helped design, my very own unique ring that I have had so many comments about. Talk about timing they even delivered to the exact day that Luke had proposed to me two years earlier.
After dealing with such nice people and truly getting to have "your very own ring" I would never walk into a store to get a ring that someone else may have. I would take the time to meet with the team at 1791 and design another ring in a heartbeat. So if you are wanting something special and to work with a team who really care about designing a ring just for you then I would recommend calling the team at 1791 Diamonds.
Thanks guys I love "my bling" ;)
I really do love my ring!!!!! I stare at it all the time :) and get so many comments
Ignite Diamond Ring Review
The Ignite, from 1791's Modena collection, offers a stylish alternative to the traditional solitaire diamond engagement ring. With the diamonds channel set into a rich, lustrous white gold band, the design is simple, almost to the point of being understated; yet it's certainly not lacking in elegance.
As the name Ignite suggests, the diamonds give off an amazing display of fire and brilliance, creating a truly dazzling wave of sparkling light. The effect is arguably one of tasteful opulence as it leans more towards quietly chic than overtly ostentatious.
For those who lead an active outdoor lifestyle or play a lot of sport, the Ignite is perfect - its channel setting ensures that there's little possibility of losing the diamonds as they're securely nestled within the band.
The distinctive styling of the Ignite design breaks right away from that of traditional engagement rings. It is unpretentious by design, and its clean lines present an air of simplicity and grace.
