What a beautiful, sweet story. I absolutely agree with the fact that the imperfections make aged pieces perfect and beautiful. I also really love love the engagement ring ... I always wanted at least a vintage style one, but this is even better. <3

Thank you so much for sharing!

His wife has an engagement ring that is very old and missing more than a few stones, it was purchased that way, he has offered to have the missing stones replaced but her response was 'but then there would be no story to tell'. So, to this day her engagement ring is missing stones and she would have it no other way.

He also shared that for her engagement present he purchased her a grand collection of vintage purses from an estate sale. She has them proudly displayed in an antique china cabinet. I can only imagine how old and beautiful they are.
