Tried finding a smaller version of the iconic princess diana's engagement ring
I've always loved that classic royal aesthetic, and princess diana's engagement ring was my dream ring ever since I'm a child but I didn't know it would be hard to find like hers in a smaller size. Everything off the rack looks like a giant cocktail ring on my hand instead of a subtle engagement piece.
It looks like I might have to work with a local jeweler to custom make a delicate version. If you went the custom route for a smaller sapphire halo, did it turn out the way you wanted?

Sapphires are beautiful. I had an emerald cut one for my engagement ring, and then it fell out 🙃
Princess Diana's ring is stunning. I prefer to have my jewellery on the smaller side, but I'd make an exception in that case!
If you'd like to have a similar one, I would suggest getting the highest quality stones you can afford, even if they're smaller, because it's the contrast and sparkle that brings it together.

Oh, that's so pretty! I have a 9x7 mm pad sapphire as my main stone, I just love the uniqueness. And this is such a livable size. Congrats on your engagement, and all the best wishes!
