But I found out, that the ring on middle finger is too disturbing, so I switched to forefinger and that's fine.
It's getting to be time to purchase a ring for my FH, and I realized-- I have no idea where to start looking?
He would like one of those thick black ones, and I'm hoping to ask him if he'd be willing to have a strip of rose gold to tie our rings together. But I really have no idea where to start looking to send him examples of rings that he might like. Which I guess brings up a few more questions.
1. What is groom ring etiquette? did you surprise your FH/ now-hubby with a style (like an engagement ring? I have no real clue.) or did he pick it with you?
2. What is the average cost of a groom's ring?
3. Where did you purchase it?
Here is a photo of a blue sapphire ring that I had designed at a jeweler in San Francisco. The blue sapphire has purchased in Hikkaduwa, Sri Lanka. Hikkaduwa is south of Columbo on the coast with aa beautiful beach. I was in Sri Lanka to rest after a much longer trip in China with a group of people. Rural Sri Lanka is beautiful but Columbo is not a place I would want to visit again. Interestingly, I was visiting Kandy, which is a former tea plantation in the hill country, about 5 days after Hikkaduwa and visited a Hindu temple (known as the Temple of the Tooth). Less than a week after I was there the Tamil Tigers detonated a bomb at the temple and killed a few people.

I still can't complain about my three stainless steel rings. They are just super comfortable.
For me it depends on the outfit I’m wearing and where I am going.
If I’m really casual then often I’ll wear a couple of mexican biker rings (typically silver & brass).
If going somewhere a little more formal like out to lunch with friends or relatives I’ll be more likely to wear silver goetic demon sigil rings.
For best, I save my more formal Silver & 18k Gold rings such as my current favourite : a Japanese Thunderbird ring.
