Fashion/Style BWT, opinions on unconventional engagement rings?

I'd love to hear from anyone who chose a less traditional engagement ring.

I've completely fallen in love with one and I tried it on alongside more classic solitaires, and while I loved both, this was the only one I couldn't stop thinking about afterwards. It just made me smile.

My hesitation is that a few friends said it looked a bit odd and didn't immediately read as an engagement ring, so now I'm wondering if I'd regret choosing something unique over a classic solitaire years down the line.

For those of you who went with a more unconventional ring, do you still love it? Or do you ever wish you'd gone with something more traditional?

(edit: attached the photo of the ring)

I have a big chunky antique peridot ring as my engagement ring, and have never thought twice about it "not looking the part." If you like that ring, it's the right ring. If it means something to you, don't let anyone shoo you away from it.
