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!

1791 created the perfect engagement ring for me to propose with; and without ever meeting a single one of their team face to face! From the first moment I saw their website I was confident that they could do exactly what I wanted, even though I didn't know quite what that was at the time. Alice took time to understand the look and feel of what I wanted and quickly came up with concepts that were beautifully tailored to suit. Discussing my chosen design with her later, I couldn't even find any changes I wanted to make. After some much needed help on getting the right diamond and ring size (thanks Ardouin), my design was crafted into the perfect ring. The team at 1791 even disguised the packaging to ensure it remained a surprise right until the last moment. And of course she said yes!
Camelia Diamond Ring Review
The Camelia diamond ring is one of the most captivating designs in the diamond engagement ring collection from 1791 Diamonds. A three stone ring featuring three spectacular round brilliants, this is a bold and glamorous style, designed to maximise sparkle and command attention.
As a diamond shape, the round brilliant was specifically calculated by a mathematician to optimise the amount of light reflected back through its top table face in order to maximise its sparkle; as a combination of three stones, therefore, the brilliance of these diamonds is simply stunning.
In the Camelia design the diamonds appear delicately woven together in their setting and create a beautiful line around the finger. The elegant setting allows the diamonds to be visible from every angle, never obscuring them or drawing attention away from them.
The ring shank, although simple in design in order to allow the diamonds to take centre stage, should not be overlooked. Available in lustrous 18kt yellow or white gold or fabulous platinum, this is the perfect finishing touch to a beautiful ring.
