Diamond Engagement Rings Specialist

With everything going viral today, even the simple act of taking off your wedding ring and separating from your wife needs to be videoed if you are a celebrity. Maybe even if you are not. Russell Brand and Katy Perry have been making the news for a while now and they have separated but when something about their marriage surfaces, it still makes big news. Like this video of Russell Brand which was shot in November of last year.
Apparently he took his wedding ring off as a joke and it was done while a comedy shot was being filmed. However, in retrospect, one wonders if he did it as a symbolic gesture as a month and a half after that, he filed for divorce. The video was being shot as a promotion for his American college tour in the middle of November and he made a really big show of taking the ring off. So was it stage-managed or what? Was he in fact trying to send out a message to everyone that this is what would be happening soon? He did say on the video that he was going to keep the ring away in a safe place.
Theirs has been a rocky marriage and being on two sides of the Atlantic very often and having hectic tours might not be conducive to a marriage especially in the early days. Katy Perry took it badly and with her family getting in the way and giving interviews to the press, things have turned murky. The news was that Russell wanted a divorce because he wanted children and she wasn’t ready for them yet.

It was very much like a scene out of Marley – only the woman lost her wedding ring and not a chain. Rachelle usually removed her wedding ring every night and put it on her bedside table. One morning when she woke up and looked for her wedding band to put it back on her finger as she always did, it wasn’t there. She looked all over for it but just could not find it. So the obvious explanation was that a thief had somehow gotten in and stolen it.
However, they realised that it seemed a rather bizarre explanation because nothing else had been stolen and there were no traces of a break in. That’s when they suddenly realised that there was one more person who had been in the bedroom with them and that was their dog, a Basset hound who looked very guilty indeed when they asked her about the gold wedding ring.
So they spent a few days watching to see if she passed it out. Not very pleasant but her husband did it without grumbling because he wanted to find that wedding ring as much as his wife did. Then, finally, they took their dog to the vet who decided to put a tube in and get the ring out. The ring had been a little too big for her digestive tract for it to have passed through. Now the ring is back on Rachelle’s finger and all is well – with her, the ring and of course, the dog.

His wedding ring had been taken off when he and his wife separated but now, Arnold Schwarzenegger looks happy and it could be because his gold wedding ring is back on his finger. He was spotted at an Idaho cafe with the ring back on the finger that has been bare for some months now and according to observers, he was grinning very much like the proverbial Cheshire cat!
He is the former governor of California and of course as everyone knows, before that he was this macho actor who beat everyone up playing the good guy. His Terminator series won him a lot of acclaim. He and Maria Shriver seemed such an unlikely couple but they had a marriage that was the envy of so many and it lasted. Till recently when he was suspected of fooling around with the hired help and the couple separated. They do say there is no fool like an old fool.
Sources say the couple got together over Christmas with their four children and it looks like there must have been some reconciliation efforts. He has always wanted to be in this marriage but she walked out. However, as a Catholic, she does not believe in divorce so maybe they have decided to give their marriage another chance and they are following the vows they took – for better or worse – very seriously indeed.

Lena Paahlsson lost her wedding ring sixteen years ago and even though she looked high and low for it, she hadn’t found it. It was Christmas time and this lady from Sweden had taken off her wedding ring and put it on the counter in the kitchen before she started to bake all the Christmas goodies with her daughters. However, the ring disappeared and they searched everywhere, even pulling up the floorboards but it was all in vain.
The family lives on a farm in the northern part of Sweden and hers was a white gold wedding ring. She had given up all hopes of finding the ring but because they lived away from any place where thieves could have stolen it, it remained a mystery that wasn’t to be solved till a couple of months ago.
The wedding ring came up when she was pulling carrots up from her vegetable garden and she saw that one of the carrots had grown around the ring. What a pleasant surprise that must have been! The mystery is, how did that ring find its way into the garden? The explanation could be that the ring had somehow fallen into the sink and it must have got mixed up with the peels that went into composting the vegetable garden or feeding the sheep. Whichever it was, that ring fell into the garden patch and it had been there, waiting to make its appearance someday. What a lucky carrot that was, to grow through the wedding ring and bring it out again to cheer up the lady. The ring doesn’t fit her now but she’s so thrilled, she is going to have it resized and put back on her finger where it belongs.

It’s a gold wedding ring and it was found in the tunnel booth at Liverpool – in the reject tray actually. The wedding band has an inscription in it – it says Until I Die. So how on earth did it get there? One can only surmise how it did because the person who lost it hasn’t come to claim it yet. Wedding rings are so sentimental for the person who wears them – at least, most of the time. So the staff at the toll booth is hoping that the ring and its owner are reunited before Christmas Day dawns.
So how could it have got there? The simplest explanation is that it must have slipped off when the person was paying the toll. In a hurry maybe, if the ring didn’t fit too well because the person had lost weight or something, it could have slipped off and fallen into the reject tray without anyone noticing. It is obviously a man’s gold wedding ring because it also has the name of a woman inscribed in it as well as a date which was obviously the date on which they were married.
The problem is, the toll payment window is on the right side while wedding rings are worn on the left – so was it really an accident or did the man just put the wedding ring into the reject tray? That gives the whole incident a different hue because then it would mean the person was angry and wanted to get rid of it. It’s all still in the area of surmising and till the man who the ring belongs to is found, one will never know what the true story is. The name of the woman inscribed on the ring and the date are not being broadcast because that would make it easy for the police to ensure that the ring is claimed by the right man.

The Salvation Army had left their red kettles out for the Christmas charity collections. In a town in North Carolina, America, the people who were counting the collection at the end of the day got a surprise. In the kettle with all the coins and notes were a gold wedding ring and an engagement ring. Now who on earth would put in two precious possession into a charity kettle? Or was it a mistake?
Apparently, it was put in knowingly because the two rings were wrapped in a one dollar bill and there was an appraiser’s note stating their value. The gold wedding ring was a 14-carat piece and both the rings were put into a kettle that had been kept near a marketplace.
As there was an appraiser’s notice, the Salvation Army staff called the appraiser and was surprised to know that he had retired fifteen years ago. So the appraisal must have been done a long time ago and it looks like the person who donated the rings wants to stay anonymous. The Salvation Army will honour that and they are going to auction the rings and use the proceeds for charity. Whatever the story is behind those two rings will remain a secret.

Dan Carter, star of the New Zealand All Blacks rugby team seems to have got married in a very private ceremony. He and Honor Dillon are supposed to have been married in an undisclosed location. One wonders why the secrecy, especially when a solicitor warned people that if they did try and get in, it would be termed trespassing. When that solicitor happens to be connected to the Australian Women’s Weekly, it gets curiouser and curiouser.

The wedding was supposed to have taken place at Blenheim at the super luxurious Lake Timara Lodge and a whole lot of rugby stars were supposed to be there. The magazine in question is rumoured to have paid a huge sum to get exclusive rights to the wedding pictures and the story so little wonder that they wanted to keep the location and the proceedings a secret. One enterprising reporter said he saw three bus loads of guests being deposited at the place and though the buses had tinted windows, he managed to get a glimpse of some of the rugby stars.

The roads to the lodge had been closed on that day and someone said that they saw the team’s coach pick up something from a jewellery store in town. Could it be possible that he could be picking up a wedding ring? The lodge was built in the 1920s and it is set away from the town so it affords a lot of privacy. City florists were booked for the day too and were busy with orders. One wonders when the wedding pictures will make a splash.

Whether it is Kim Kardashian’s wedding ring or Demi Moore’s, an American company has offered to buy celebrity wedding rings once the marriage is over. After all, what do you do with a wedding ring when you are divorced? You can’t wear it and if you try and get it redesigned, everyone’s going to know. So probably the best thing to do is to sell it and why not cash in on something you can’t wear anymore?

Look at Kim Kardashian – just seventy two days and the marriage was over. Demi Moore’s was a lot longer than that but come to an end it did. So here’s a way out of keeping that wedding ring locked up somewhere with all the memories. You can sell it and move on. The store gives you the best price after experts assess the ring and then give you an estimate. For the person, it’s the end of one phase of their lives and the time for new beginnings.

The company has been in the business of buying old wedding rings for over seven decades in New York and they have set up an easy and safe way to sell old wedding rings. Their store front isn’t flashy but discreet and they arrange to give you the money through a bank transfer or a cheque. So this is a great way to sell an old family wedding ring or a wedding ring after a partner has passed on or of course, a wedding ring after the divorce. Considering that the divorce rate in America is going up and up they are probably going to be in business for a long, long time.

How nasty could thieves get? A couple in Washington in the US was going through the wedding rehearsal when a thief crept into the room where they had kept their things and made off with them. This included the bridegroom’s wedding ring. It was a sad shock indeed for the couple and their families to find a happy occasion like this marred by theft – and that too in a church.

When they were going through the rehearsal, the Parkers had left their things – her family heirloom jewellery, her shoes, wedding dress and his wedding ring in the dressing room. The thief got in and stole it all – except for the wedding dress. They were all devastated but the couple decided to look on the bright side of things and they feel that finally, it is their wedding that it most important and the rest is just things. Be that as it may, it is quite traumatic to have something like this happen just before the wedding which is such a happy occasion. The couple also managed to buy whatever they needed for the wedding.

The thief was captured on the surveillance camera and it is a woman, dressed all in black with her hair tied in a pony tail. She is small made and what was even worse is that she got their ATM cards as well and drew out money from their accounts before their cards were blocked. She was seen lurking in the church corridor and she was obviously waiting to steal from some unwary people. The police are carrying out an investigation and the couple hopes that someone will identify her and that they will get their things back.

Sportsmen who play with their wedding rings on are few and far between. However, American Buffalo Bills footballer of the NFL keeps his wedding ring on, no matter what. He says in the five and a half years that he has been married, he hasn’t taken off his ring for anything. Not when he plays nor has a shower or even when he had to change diapers.

Most players take their wedding rings off and leave them at home or in their lockers but not Ryan Fitzpatrick. In this game, quarterbacks like him are especially careful to make sure their wedding ring is off while they are playing but he does not see the need for it and continues wearing it. What helps of course, is the fact that he wears the ring on his left hand and throws with his right so it does not put too much pressure on his left hand. He also says that he isn’t really making a statement here or trying to bring the issue to the forefront. For him, it is something personal and he feels that for him, it should stay on. His platinum wedding ring has the date of the wedding inscribed on it and to date, has fitted him well and has not needed any resizing.

Should a player wear his wedding band always or not? It really is each one’s decision. Most players take it off to avoid the risk of injury and when it comes to injury, many wives would probably tell their sports person husbands that it does not matter. Some wear a rubber band in place of the wedding ring to signify that they are married and some just leave the wedding ring off for the length of the game. One player says that he leaves it off and with it, he stops being a husband and becomes a monster on the field so he feels it is all right to keep it off for that period.

Vera Wang has collaborated with Zales, the jewellery retailer worldwide to launch a collection of designer diamond engagement rings and wedding rings and this collection is said to be a gorgeous nuptial pairing of rings. This themed collection is truly worthy of the celebrities who are the ones who can afford certain rings in the collection. The first whispers about this collection were heard a few months ago and now the collection is on show being previewed.

The collection is called LOVE – simple, short and to the point. There are five lines within this collection and these are so that the collection appeals to all age types as well as tastes. There is the classic and traditional solitaire line set in white gold. Then, there are diamonds surrounded by pave designs so it looks full and flashy. Bands that are fully encrusted with dazzling diamonds are also very much in evidence as are more intricately designed baguette diamonds and channel set diamonds. So it goes all the way from a simple, elegant style to very flashy bling.

Some of the rings have been inspired by Kate Middleton’s engagement ring with sapphires making their appearance with diamonds and some have been inspired by Kim Kardashian – though now with the break up, one wonders how this line is going to be presented. The rings range from half a carat to one and a half carats and there’s a huge choice that is priced quite reasonably. This is a collection that has been eagerly awaited from the designer who has been known among the rich and famous for her wedding gowns. With her exquisite taste and designer sense, this collection is sure to find favour with brides everywhere.
