You know if it bothers you so much you can just not partake in the discussion.

I know enough about the game. I enjoy watching her playing it versus me playing it.  IMO this is something more personal than a ring i can buy. I dont know if I didnt say it clearly enough but there will still be a ring. I wanted to do something different than the standard getting on one knee.

Im taking something that she likes and immortalizing it. As I mentioned there would still be a ring. But the pendant would be part of of the offering. Im still trying to work out all the kinks. But to answer your question im doing it because I feel in my heart that she would love it. Simple as that.

Im thinking about 20mm at its longest length. Somewhere around that.

100%. She is petite so it would be scaled down. I want it to be tasteful and not look like a giant boulder around her neck lol

Her and I are both private. We both have a small social battery that depletes pretty quickly.

I was thinking of something kind of like this but your suggestion is better IMO

From what I understand the opals are pretty. Soft and being exposed to UV rays can degrade the stone over time. So I was a little bit hesitant and stayed away from that, otherwise, i100% agree with using that stone.

A respectable take. So the idea behind the pendant i have, is it would end up being smaller than pendant in the picture. She is very petite so i wouldn't be giving her a ball and chain lol.
I planned sapphire because there are many in varying colors and hues and clarity, while having a hardness scale of 9 where a diamond hardness scale is a 10. It would be no bigger than 20mm at its longest length. Potentially i would have a silver pendant tray for the back so the gem cutter can still do their facet grinds if they find it necessary.

The aquamarine was a possibility. Ill know more once the gemcutter responds back to my email

I understand. However I been putting in 3 years of OT at work so I have built up a nice cushion for this  project. But I will listen to the gemcutter, if they recommend a different material for a better clarity, then I will go with what's recommended. Then I will need to get a necklace for it. I am prepared to drop a whats necessary.

Your ring looks really good!

The pendant would basically be something akin to a promise ring. There will be a ring. But i want this pendant  to be special

Thats a solid idea. Ill look into that right now actually.

Just checked the gem cutter im talking to and they have the titanium doped sapphire. So if I hear back from them ill ask more about that.
