@drizzellla I *think* that royal wedding bands are traditionally made from Welsh gold, I could be wrong.

Thanks you for sharing that Greeneyedlady.

 

I find it interesting that the diamond was set in platinum and the wedding ring was yellow gold.


I believe all the members of the royal family who wear wedding bands wear yellow gold, and they all come from the same traditional gold source. I could be wrong, but I remember reading something about that.

Now that you say that - I sure you are right. I had heard that.

Thank you for the information. That information was packed way back in the recesses of my brain. Because once you mentioned it, I remember hearing that. Thanks for refreshing my memory.

Princess Grace's was the best.

Camilla comes in at # 2

Meghan's is so so

 

forget Kate that to me is a cocktail ring only. Dinner ring.

 

Only diamonds for engagement/wedding is my motto.

 

KIm and Melania still are at the head of the line since Liz T. is dead.
