Royal engagement rings

[Hermione]

Inspired by Moshie not wearing her rings, I thought it would be nice to have a thread about royal engagement rings 
Here are some pics I found (mainly from TRF):I hope the links work!

If you have close-ups of other royal engagement rings, I'd be happy if you could share them   
Does anybody have a pic of Maxima's ring?

  I enjoyed re-looking at these engagement rings, forgotten how fabulous Diana's ring was.  I can't remember, but did,t all Diana's personal jewelry go to Harry (as William would have all the Crown Jewels for his wife).

It's hard to get a good look at Margrethe's engagement ring in those pictures.  Does it have two diamonds?  I've always thought she was wearing two rings on that finger, but perhaps the two stones are both in her engagement ring.

Thanks, Galuh! I've never seen Alexandra's engagement ring before. Surprised that Mosh's looks a lot like hers.

[Hermione]

Not really on topic, but I just found these on another board:

Thanks, Galuh! I've never seen Alexandra's engagement ring before. Surprised that Mosh's looks a lot like hers.

Ja, and again smaller! 

[shoshanah]

wow, center stone is smaller.  a lot smaller.

[hanzo1]

I wouldn't choose none of the above. I have to say that Diana's allthough impressive plus nice looking rock is just too big and today looks IMO dated.

If I have to choose I'l go for Letizia's

[Ugly Betty]

I love Mathilde's ring and wouldn't turn down the rock that Sophie is wearing either.

I love Mathilde's ring and wouldn't turn down the rock that Sophie is wearing either.

Yea If I must I'm willing to take Sophie's too

According to this blog

Sophie's ring features a 2.05-carat oval diamond, flanked by two smaller heart shaped gems, set in 18 carat white gold. Made by the Crown Jewellers, Aspry and estimated at £105,000, it is said to be the most expensive royal engagement ring in history.

Lovely photos- thank you.

Definitely Letizia and Sophie are the best and OTT is Margrethe

Does anybody have a pic of Maxima's ring?
