Properties of Palladium
The metal is actually from the same family of metals as Platinum with very similar characteristics. It’s hard wearing, though not quite as hard wearing as its brother metal. It does not tarnish because it does not react with oxygen and it has been recognized by the UK Assay Office with its own Hallmarks.
It is actually lighter than its brother. This can have advantages for people who are not used to wearing Jewellery and prefer the lighter touch. It also does not need rhodium plating or over time re-plating like white gold and keeps its colour throughout its life.
When scratched or dented unless the action is aggressively gauging, it has the curious ability to not lose its metal. The metal is just displaced which means that a little polishing by an expert jeweller will restore it to new condition.
What grades of metal are there? There are essentially two grades of this metal used in Jewellery which are grades 500 and 950. Both are alloys and are combined with silver to make up the alloy. The 500 is 50% Palladium and 50% silver, the more precious and therefore more costly 950 is 95% Palladium and 5% silver. Both of these options are available on this website so, whatever your means, there should be an affordable option for you to own some of this remarkable metal.

Tumblr media
Getting Hyeji to distract Ruby for a day was easy. Saying that it was a free day and Hyeji insisting that Ruby take the time to get out of the house and have some fun was even easier with their current loneliness. She and a few of the other staff members formed a little group and the handful of them were taking Ruby to Lotte World Amusement Park then would be dragging them out for dinner and a movie. 
That left the perfect time for security, managers, and the members to sneak into the jewelry store. 
“ Hello!” An older woman, dressed in a crisp, black pinstriped suit, with her salt and pepper hair pulled up into a french twist, greeted everyone with a bow. “ The managers informed me of an important guest coming to our store and I couldn’t help myself to come and assist. My name is Nam Myung, I am the current owner of this jewelry store chain. It’s a pleasure to meet you, Woozi-ssi, and the rest of Seventeen.” 
Jihoon gave the women a bow in greeting, pulling his mask down when he stood straight. “ I’m sorry for halting business at this time, Nam-ssi.” 
“Oh, nonsense,” She smiled, warm and inviting, it reminded him of Chan's grandmother and Soonyoung’s mother. “ We’ve had celebrities come in and close the shop for a mere personal shopping spree. May I ask what you need today?”  
“ An engagement ring for my soulmate.” 
She clapped her hands together, already moving behind one of the counters and he followed to stand on the opposite side of it, along with every single member of Seventeen. Joshua was holding up his phone at this point, a call with Ruby’s grandparents already being put through, and Seungcheol was holding Jihoon’s phone, calling Jamie and Kazuki. Quiet greetings were exchanged through the phones before said phones were pushed into Jihoon’s face for his own greetings. 
“ We have many people to get approval from today?” Myung snickered, pulling out a few trays of rings of varying metals, styles, and gemstone types. 
Jihoon’s shoulders dropped, giving a small nod. “ Their grandparents, two of their friends, me, and all the guys. None of them would let me go alone.” 
“Ah~ That is just how family is.” She waved to the phones being held up before pulling a pair of thin framed glasses from her jacket pocket. “ We have a lot of ring styles and settings to choose from, if something needs to be ordered, a rush can be placed, however it will cost extra. When is the estimated proposal date?” 
He cringed, drumming his nails against the glass counter. “ Four weeks? Give or take?” 
“I’ve worked with less.” She winked, motioning towards the trays. “ Do you have any ideas of what your significant other likes?” 
“Nothing gold!” Mingyu pushed through the small crowd, letting his eyes roam over the selections before Jihoon. “ They don’t like gold.” 
Myung gave a small huff of a laugh through her nose, “ So something with a silver look, we have rhodium plated white gold that looks silver, sterling silver, and palladium. On the cheaper end, we also have platinum.” 
“They don't really like anything gold.” Jihoon added, “ Leaning more towards sterling silver or platinum, but sterling might be the best idea.”
“ Oh there are so many options.” Hearing Mimi’s voice quietly through everyone behind him. “ Much more than when I was getting married.” 
“ I think we are going to be here a while.” Joshua snickered, standing off to the side but close enough for everything to be seen. 
Jihoon took his bag off his shoulders and got his iPad out, easily pulling up different notes and pictures. “We all kinda compiled a list of everything we know they like and don’t like.” 
“Smart man. Having plenty of assistance with that must have been helpful.” She placed trays with anything gold back in the display counter, keeping the many rows of silver before Jihoon. She held out his hands to take the iPad which he handed over willingly, watching her easily scroll through.
“ Bring me closer-” Jamie’s voice was right by his ear before Seungcheol hip checked Mingyu aside and showed him the different rings. “ Wah, there are so many to pick from, how the hell-” 
“ Jamie, hush.” Kazuki scolded and while he did stay quiet, a quick look at the screen showed him pouting. 
“ Alright, nothing square for the cut, a preference for little to no diamonds, something simple. Gemstones too..” She placed the device down and ran her nails over some of the ring settings. “ Leaves us with heart, oval, circle, or pear. This is going to sound out of place, but may I see a picture of your partner?” 
“Picture- yeah.” 
Jihoon reached over and pulled up a picture from his iCloud gallery. It didn’t take long for him to find a picture of the two of them together, a sneaky mirror selfie they took when they had dragged him out to Ikea for smaller things they definitely didn’t need but Ruby insisted on getting. It was in one of those stupid bedroom set ups with way too many colors and weird decorations that Ruby joked they should buy. He only needed to stroll for a few moments to find a proper picture of them sitting on his studio couch, holding up a peace sign and giving a wide, closed mouth smile. 
“ Sometimes it helps to see the person to better give perspective and guide you towards the right pieces.” Myung roamed her eyes over Ruby, humming to herself. “ What is their name?” 
“Y/N.” 
“Everyone calls them Ruby-ah!” Seokmin bounced in. 
“ Ruby-ah?” 
“Their grandmother called them that. Their birthstone is a Ruby. Red roses were some of their favorite flowers.” Jihoon motioned to Joshua’s phone to Mimi and Papa waving through the screen. 
That had Myung searching for a specific ring, “I’ve been wanting to sell one of these since we got the design in and I think everyone here will absolutely love it.” It didn’t take long for her to lift the ring from its tray slot, the silver color glimmering under the white lights of the store. “ We can get it in a different stone setting and place a gemstone in it instead of a center diamond.” 
One of the other women behind the counter placed a velvet tray on the counter where Myung set down the ring, motioning for him to pick it up and take a look at it. Each of the members behind him were either on their tiptoes or leaning over to better see the piece she had picked out. There were some murmurs over the phones with questions, but he mainly ignored them in place of picking up the ring hesitantly. 
It was light despite the circle cut diamond in its center place and the three diamonds on each side. The metal of the ring itself was one solid piece which split into two, holding two of the three smaller diamonds before entwining back to house the third small gem. The first two clear gems were marquise shaped, reminding him of leaves on a flower’s stem while the third was round cut, topping the jewelry made ‘flower’. It was unique for sure, nothing he had seen online came close to such a design, but truly none of them were thinking outside of the box. 
Truly, this ring was nearly perfect, it was almost dainty, but the diamond that was staring back at him wasn’t right. It was definitely pretty, but…it wasn’t them. It wasn’t Ruby. 
“ What do you think?” 
“The setting is nice, it does remind me of a rose or just a flower in general.” Others were pushing to see it, with Joshua and Seungcheol holding the phones close for the ones on call to know what was being discussed. 
“ But it isn’t what you are fully looking for?” He shook his head at the question. “ I have an idea.” 
Myung motioned for the same woman who gave the velvet tray to step forward, whispering something to her. Said woman hurried off but Myung refocused on him and everyone else who was looking at the sample ring. 
“ It just seems a little plain.” Minghao said, peering over the piece while Seungkwan and Seokmin examined it. “ Maybe just the center needs to be changed. The circle cut is nice but it doesn’t have any…flare to it.” 
“It needs to be more flashy but not if that makes sense.” Seungkwan added before it was passed to Soonyoung and Jun, both quietly looking over before it was once more passed along. 
When the tray made its way back towards the counter, Myung pushed her glasses up, glancing at Minghao and Seungkwan. “ I’ll have to agree with the two of you there. I have an idea for a simple change that won’t take too long to get finished. It would work perfectly for something stackable based on the ideas you had placed down.” 
It wasn’t long before the other worker came back with a metal case and a pair of long tweezers, placing them both before Myung. She was quick to take hold of the metal tool and open the case. The hinged top didn’t allow him to really see what she was looking at but he waited patiently. 
Closing his eyes for a moment, he let himself sink into the bond, taking in a breath as he poked through to what Ruby was feeling, having been focused on keeping himself level headed. The group had left with them late morning and they wouldn’t be home until later in the evening and from what he could tell, they were having fun. Excitement and amusement were prominent, he couldn’t wait to sit in bed later and hear them ramble about the adventures they were taken on throughout the day. Part of him hoped Ruby took pictures to get printed and add them to the photo books as fond memories. 
“ Ah, there it is. These old eyes aren’t as bright as they once were.” Snapping his eyes open, Myung had picked up the tray with the ring and held a shining red gemstone over it to better show him. “ Just like their nickname and birthstone, I thought that sticking with the ‘theme’ was perfectly appropriate. It’s a pear cut with a clear clarity. Gorgeous color but not too bright. It would stand out well with the silver and diamonds surrounding it.” 
Lifting the ring, she held the ruby over the center diamond, giving an approximate show of what a finished product could look like. Though it wasn’t exact with the makeshift showing, there was a silence that washed over everyone as they leaned in. All their eyes were wide, and it hit him that it was the one. 
He felt his heart skip a beat before its speed picked up. There was a moment where a few things, such simple and trivia things, passed through his mind. Ruby, standing at the kitchen counter, baking those overly sweet brownies with the ring resting around their finger. Ruby drumming their fingers against the table, waiting for food on the stove to finish simmering and the light from the kitchen hitting the gemstone just right. Ruby sitting beside him on the couch, holding his hand while they watched movies, feeling the warmed metal against his own fingers. 
“ Jihoonie?” Soonyoung’s voice from his left broke him from the small trace he placed himself. 
“ I’ve seen that look a million times.” Myung placed the ruby back in the case and set the ring in the tray, grabbing a notepad to jot down some things. “ Many times, when someone comes in and they find the one they like, they imagine what it would be like for their partner to be wearing the piece they pick out. It’s a hit or a miss. If they imagine it and it doesn’t look good, they find another, but if they imagine it and love what their imagination brings forth? It’s the one.” 
“Hyung, hyung, what do you think?” Chan’s curious voice asked beside Soonyoung, leaning over the counter with bright eyes and a wide smile. 
“ I’d like to go with the ruby design. Please.” 
Myung lifted her eyes to him, letting a gentle smile spread on her face and quickly jotted down a few more notes. “ I believe that can be arranged rather quickly.”
Tumblr media
For the rest of the day, Jihoon felt light. With the secret meeting over and a quick lunch with the guys, Jihoon and the members split off, all heading home for the much needed rest day. 
With everyone inevitably hearing the rather costly price of the ring (5,235,987 (4,100 USD) won which he expected, not including the slight rush order), it was a very hard pact that Ruby would never find out because they would actually commit a crime. Mingyu and Soonyoung were sworn to secrecy and their self appointed keepers would be keeping a watchful eye when they were around. A lot of things needed to happen in a few short weeks now so he hoped everything would work out how he wanted. 
There was still time before Ruby would be back. It gave him plenty of time for the mindless tasks both of them had been putting off such as the laundry, reorganizing their room, and ordering groceries based on the list they compiled throughout the week. Since he had been busy the last few days and Ruby was either working or feeling too unmotivated, he used the airy headspace he had and the energy that spurred him to get things done. He wanted to at least try and pull his weight the best he could despite the time he isn’t home.
One look in the fridge also reminded him that he was lazy and wasn’t in the mood to cook so ordering take away for himself was his best bet once dinner time came. His phone was buzzing on the kitchen table behind him, having placed it down to clean off the counters. Glancing down at his watch, it was just Jamie and Kazuki messaging back and forth ideas for Jihoon to consider if he did manage to get the greenhouse garden for the proposal. Hyeji was still emailing their team, trying to figure out dates, time, maybe even a cost which was more than likely. 
He had to sit down and book the flights for their grandparents, which he checked the time, knowing it was extremely early to reach out to Mimi and Papa, seeing as they stayed up late to join in the ring escapades. Jihoon sent a quick text, asking them to message back when they woke up, hoping Ruby still wouldn’t be home so everything could get done. 
With Ruby’s (unneeded) insistence and the (unneeded) begging from Jamie and Kazuki, the two would be staying in the guest room (why they begged, he didn’t know, he already assumed that was the plan). They’d be coming a couple days before Caratland to spend time with Ruby while he was at practices, then stay for a week after for the proposal and overall spending time with their friend. Mimi and Papa would be in a hotel again, which they preferred, and most likely coming the day before Caratland and staying about the same time after as the other two. With the downtime after Caratland before practices for FML, it would work out just about perfectly from the mental timeline he had been scheming. 
Should he have been more stressed? Definitely, he honestly should be worried if something doesn’t work out, but with the meetings, help from staff, and his own time placed into everything, there were backup plans in place. Jihoon was thankful for the support that everyone had been showing him, knowing how much this means, and him being the first of the group to meet their soulmate. He also had plenty of text messages from the other members’ parents with words of congratulations and excitement. 
Ruby’s grandparents messaged when he was in the middle of eating his dinner and from Hyeji’s text, the group was still out and about after the movie, trying to find a place for dinner. 
When the call connected on his phone, laptop pulled up in front of him, he gave a wave. “Sorry, in the middle of eating.” 
“ Ah, no worries about that, we finished our breakfast a bit ago. You said you wanted to talk about dates?” 
“Mhmm, just for the flights. Caratland will be the second weekend in March, tenth through the twelfth.” Jihoon pulled up some tabs of different flights. “Would the…landing here on the eighth in the later afternoon be okay? So Ruby doesn’t suspect-” 
“ The eighth would be fine, dear!” Mimi hummed, looking at a small book in her lap from what he could see. “ And a return date?” 
“Jamie and Kazuki leave the nineteenth, I think I have their flight information so we can have you on the same flight as them. Let me just-” Reaching for his phone, Jihoon quickly added Jamie to the call, waiting for the line to answer. 
“ Hello?” The camera was facing a ceiling and the clacking of a keyboard was heard. “ I’m at work, what's up, Jihoon?”
“ Can- Hold on, Mimi.” He sighed, “ You both are still flying home the nineteenth? On the one o’clock flight?” 
“Yeah, trying to get them on the same return flight?” Jihoon nodded and Jamie hummed. “ Hi Mimi.” 
“Hi, sweetheart, how’s work?” 
“It’s going, just counting down the days until we head for Korea.” Jamie lifted the phone and he propped it against something. “ Kazu is in a meeting right now and I’m about to jump into one, I forwarded the flight details to you, Jihoon-ah.” 
“ Thanks. ” Jihoon pulled up the email once it showed up and clicked away. “Sorry, Mimi, English is hard.” 
“ No worries~ I know you are doing your best and I appreciate it. I’m grateful for the opportunity you are giving us.” 
“It’s no problem. Is Papa out?” 
“ Oh yes, he went across town to help out at a friend’s hardware store. Later on I’m going to a cross stitch meeting with some friends. Ruby is still out with friends?” 
“Yeah, they should be back within an hour or two. I wanted to book the flight before it became too late.” With him never booking a flight for himself, it left him a bit confused looking over some of the details, but with some patience he managed to get it figured out. “There are…two seats together three rows ahead of Jamie and Kazuki, middle and..aisle seats.” 
“ Those would be perfectly fine.” Mimi hummed, smiling and writing something down in the small book. “ So the eighth through the nineteenth. And you are still waiting to hear back from the garden?”
Nodding, Jihoon finalized the flight plans with their passport information they gave a few days prior before forwarding the email to both Jamie and to Mimi. “Yeah. Soon we will have the date set.” 
“ I’m sure you or Joshua will let us know in the conversation. Let us know if you need something from us for the proposal.” 
“I will, I sent everything over to you.”
“ Enjoy the rest of your dinner, sweetie, have a good night.” 
He smiled, a laugh puffing from his nose. “And good morning to you.” 
“ And Jihoon? I think Ruby is going to love the ring. It is a beautiful choice.” 
“When I can sneak away once you arrive, I’ll make sure to show it to you both. I’m picking it up in about a week.” 
“Perfect.”
Tumblr media
You never intended to be out so late, but dinner turned into sitting and talking, which turned into drinks, which turned into more talking and having fun. It was nearing midnight when you finally got dropped off at the apartment building. It was an outing that was definitely needed and definitely appreciated with how you have been feeling. 
Jihoon hadn’t replied to your text message that you were on the way home and the lights in the apartment were off when you stepped through the door. You tried to be quiet but a few stumbles and the clattering of dropping your phone while trying to take off your shoes had your name being called out tiredly through the apartment. 
“ Sorry-” You called back, shedding your jacket and shuffling your socked feet across the floor until you reached the bedroom. 
Here, the lights were off but his laptop illuminated the room. Jihoon had pushed himself against the wall as he did every night, him saying the coolness of the wall and the warmth you brought was balanced enough. Never made much sense to you, but if he was comfortable, so be it. 
He had his face hidden behind the blanket that he curled himself up in but you could see the dark, grown out, wavy locks that he had been getting annoyed with recently for getting in his face peeking out. The room was…much cleaner than when you left this afternoon, clothes no longer littering one of the room corners, the basket of laundry was put away as well. 
With haste, you grabbed some clothes and went to the bathroom, changing and getting your nighttime routine done so you didn’t feel like absolute shit in the morning. Once you returned, the laptop was closed but wasn’t moved from your side of the bed. The blanket that was once cocooning your soulmate was now opened and he was waiting for you with a lazily opened arm. 
“ Hurry up, it’s cold.” His voice was groggy and quiet, but you listened, moving his laptop to the nightstand and scooting in, letting him drop the blanket and bundle you up to his chest. 
The hand that wrapped around your waist was cold against the skin that got exposed by your shirt riding up and you shivered yet made no complaint. Unlike most days where he had you resting your head against his chest, he placed his against yours instead, settling in with a grumble. You tucked the blanket up over your shoulder, keeping in any body heat to keep Jihoon warm.
“ Sorry I woke you.” Reaching up, your carded your fingers through his hair, gently detangling any knots you found in the process. 
“ ‘S okay…” He shifted and tangled your legs today, pressing himself close to you the best he could. “ Did you have fun?” 
“I did, they said it was your idea because you’ve been busy.” 
It took him a moment to reply, his breathing coming out slowly and steadily. “ Barely…”
You continued to card your fingers in his hair, feeling him lean into your touch. The longer you played with his hair, the more it became apparent he had fallen asleep. Now that your eyes adjusted to the light, he looked peaceful, the light crease he had between his eyebrows smoothed out and the tension he typically held in his jaw was relaxed. 
Earlier in the day he went from feeling happy to feeling blissful but also enamored. You were curious as to why but let it be, simply happy that he felt so strongly and went on with the adventures the day brought with friends. 
You weren’t one for amusement parks but Lotte World was always a place you wanted to visit and you didn’t want to pass up on the opportunity. It was fun, you got to be around people you considered basic friends and was able to capture some nice moments you wanted to add to the photo book when you got a chance. 
With your eyes growing heavy, you peppered a few kisses into his hair, letting the steady rise and fall of his chest lull you to bed.

Iron Man 2: Part Four

As much as Tony seems like he doesn't care he is dying, he does. He tries to prolong his death by hitting the gym and being as fit as he can to slow down the process the Palladium is doing to his body as if physical exercise will stop it completely. He and Happy set up a daily routine of boxing in the small ring he has in his gym, and since you want to get some frustrations out, you decide to work out alongside them.
You're off to the side punching the hell out of a punching bag. Punch. Why did Bucky have to die like that? You had him in yours and he still fell. Punch. Punch. Why couldn't you find Steve's body after the crash? You could have melted the ice and kept searching for him. Instead, you left Earth like a coward. Punch. Punch. Punch. Punch. Why didn't you go with Carol when she left? What was keeping you tied to Earth? The promise of keeping Tony safe? Punch. Punch. Punch. Punch. Punch. Punch. Why do you have to go and act like such a coward when Fury asked you to be a part of the Avengers Initiative? Why does it feel like you're losing Tony? Why, in the thousand years you've been alive, haven't you found what everyone else already seems to have?
Punch. Punch. Punch. Punch. Punch. Punch. Punch. Punch.
All the frustrations inside you build up into the last punch and you hit the punching bag with everything you got. Your blood pressure skyrockets and your fist goes up in flames. That causes the punching bag to burst into flames upon the moment of contact. It goes flying across the room and into the wall, still ablaze.
Tony and Happy stop what they're doing and stare at you in shock. You snap out of your trance and rush over to the bag to put out the flames. It takes one swipe of your arm to extinguish them.
"Sorry," you pant and wave them off.
The door to the gym opens and Pepper walks in with a red-headed woman. What the hell is Natasha doing here? She's wearing a black pencil skirt and a white shirt that has the first two buttons undone. If she's here with Pepper, that means she's here undercover. If she's here undercover, she won't appreciate you telling everyone who she really is.
Damn, she's even more beautiful up close.
"The notary's here! Can you please sign the transfer paperwork?" Pepper announces as they walk down the steps.
You grab your towel and wipe off the sweat from your forehead as you make your way over to the two women.
"I'm on Happy Time," Tony answers and hits Happy in the face with his elbow. "Sorry."
"What the hell was that?"
"It's called mixed martial arts. It's been around for three weeks."
"It's called dirty boxing and there's nothing new about it."
"I promise this is the only time I will ask you to sign over your company," Pepper says.
"Hi, I'm Y/N," you say to Natasha with a smile.
Natasha locks eyes with you and gives you a simple nod to let you know she heard you.
"Natalie." She turns to Tony who jumps out of the ring. "I need you to initial each box."
"That's it. I'm done. What's your name, lady?" Tony asks.
"Rushman. Natalie Rushman."
"Front and center. Come into the church," Tony invites her into the ring.
"No. You're seriously not gonna ask--"
"If it pleases the court, which it does," Tony interrupts Pepper.
"It's no problem, really," she says to Pepper.
"I'm sorry. He's very eccentric."
Natasha walks over to the ring, slips off her shoes, and enters the ring from under one of the ropes.
"Can you give her a lesson?" Tony asks Happy without taking his eyes off her.
"No problem."
"Pepper," he states when he exits the ring. 
He walks over to you and Pepper and takes a seat next to her and across from you. In between you and Tony is a desk which doubles up as a computer. He seriously has a computer in every nook and cranny of his house.
"What?"
"Who is she?"
"She is from legal and is potentially a very expensive sexual harassment lawsuit if you keep ogling her like that," she sighs.
You look behind you to see Nataha's eyes on you. She quickly looks away and focuses on Happy instead.
"Have you ever boxed before?" Happy asks.
"I have, yes."
"What, like Tae Bo? Booty Boot Camp? Crunch? Something like that?"
It's clear that Natasha is annoyed by his questions but she has to keep up her facade if she's going to fool everyone in the room. Everyone but you.
"How do I spell your name, Natalie?" Tony asks loudly.
"R-U-S-H-M-A-N."
"You don't know how to spell Rushman?" you ask quietly so that only he can hear, and he only gives you a shrug in response. 
He types what she says into the computer on his desk and pulls up her files. Man, Fury really made sure she's presented as a notary from legal. He redid her whole past as if Black Widow didn't even exist.
"What, are you gonna google her now?" Pepper asks.
"I thought I was ogling her. Wow. A very, very impressive individual," he gasps once he reads what she's all about.
"You're so predictable, you know that?"
"She's fluent in French, Italian, Russian, and Latin. Who speaks Latin?"
"No one speaks Latin. It's a dead language. You can read Latin or you can write Latin, but you can't speak Latin."
"Did you model in Tokyo? Because she modeled in Tokyo," he smirks. "I need her. She's got everything that I need."
You look over at Natasha and Happy only to see her looking right at you and Tony. As soon as she sees you watching her, she looks back at Happy.
"Rule number one, never take your eyes off your opponent."
He goes to take a swing at her but she grabs his hand at the last minute. She jumps on him and flips him over with her legs over his head. Damn, the Red Room training really did a number on her.
"Oh, my God! Happy!" Pepper exclaims and gets out of her seat.
"That's what I'm talking about!" Tony grins. 
As Natasha leaves the ring, he rings a bell to signal her win. She slips back on her shoes and grabs the book with the papers needed in order to transfer over the CEO position.
"I need your impression."
"You have a quiet reserve. I don't know, you have an old soul."
"She means your fingerprint," you sigh.
"Right," he nods.
He presses his thumb against the ink pad that's connected to the file book. Once he has enough ink there, he presses his thumb down on the place Natasha tells him to. There, it's official. Pepper is now CEO of Stark Industries.
"Will that be all, Mr. Stark?" Natasha asks.
"No."
"Yes, that will be all, Ms. Rushman. Thank you very much," Pepper smiles.
Natasha packs up her things and leaves the gym, and no one seems to notice you chasing after her.
"Hey, Natalie. A word, please?"
Natasha stops walking and follows you into an empty room. Once the door is closed, her facade melts away so she's Natasha for you.
"Look, I go where Fury sends me. I read about you in the file. I know who you are and what you can do. I am not here for you. Fury asked me to keep an eye on Tony. He thinks Iron Man is a viable candidate." She stops talking when she sees the smile on your face. "What? Why are you smiling like that?"
"I know why you're here. I wasn't going to talk about that."
"Oh. What do you need then?"
"I bet you get this all the time, but you're very beautiful." Natasha seems taken aback by the compliment. Her cheeks darken a bit from the blush you've given her. "Fury told me to ask you myself so are you seeing anyone?"
"My work keeps me from dating," she clears her throat.
"Lucky for me, we work together," you grin. "Am I being too forward? Am I making you uncomfortable?"
Natasha's shoulders relax, telling you she isn't completely turned off by this.
"No, nothing like that. I wasn't expecting this, is all."
"Can I have your number? I'd really like it if I could take you out. You know, when you're not babysitting Tony."
She smiles and takes out her phone with a shake of her head. She unlocks it and hands it to you, which you take graciously.
"I'm a lot of things, Y/N, but I'm no babysitter."
She takes back her phone once you've inputted your number.
"Well, I look forward to finding out what kind of things you are, then." You wink at her and open the door to the empty room. "Ciao."
You can't believe you just did that. Natasha might have done a lot of things in her life and are a lot of things, but she hasn't met someone like you. Fury gave her orders to monitor Tony, but she can't very well do that 24/7, can she?
The best time for you to be alone and take time for yourself is when everyone else is sleeping. You're in your room aimlessly scrolling through your phone when you get a message from an unknown number.
You busy? x N
A smile breaks out on your face knowing who this is.
Depends. Is this a booty call?
xD No. I couldn't sleep and I had a feeling you might not be able to, either.
You're right.
I could use some company now if you're up for it.
Meet me at Malibu Pier in twenty.
You get dressed out of your pajamas and into something more appropriate. You sneak out of the house and fly over to Malibu Pier before Natasha gets there. It's warm outside but you're still shaking from nerves. This is like the time you were waiting for Bucky to pick you up for your first date, and when you and Carol went on a date. First date jitters even if it's not that. You haven't felt like this in a long time, so you welcome the feeling.
"Hey."
You turn to see Natasha walking toward you. She is out of her Natalie disguise and in some casual clothes.
"Hey, yourself. I've got to be honest, I like you better like this than as Natalie."
"Thanks," she smiles.
"Want to go to Los Angeles?" you blurt out.
"Sure. I'll drive."
"Do you trust me?" you grin and walk closer to her.
"I barely know you."
You hold out your hand and she grabs it despite what she just said.
"Are you afraid of heights?"
"No."
"Good." You pull her close and wrap an arm around her waist. "Hold on tight."
You lift off the ground with her in your arms, and she gasps and holds on tighter to you. You fly straight into the sky and head in the direction of the Wilshire Grand Center in Los Angeles. That's the tallest building in California that has the best view of the city below. You fly Natasha to the very top of the tower in ten minutes whereas it would be a forty-five minute drive. She only lets go of you when she plants her feet firmly on the top. You bounce over to the edge and sit down with your feet dangling over the edge.
"Wow. This view is amazing," she smiles.
The city is sparkling down below you. It's like a whole other world up here.
"I like to come here when I want to escape." She walks over to you carefully and sits down next to you. "I feel like I can be anybody up here."
"So, what's wrong with you?"
"Excuse me?" you chuckle and look at her.
"I only know what I've read about you. You must have been through some shit throughout your life."
"No more than you, I presume."
"You're a thousand years old. What are you doing here?"
"You want the long story or the short one?"
"Where else am I gonna go?" she laughs and gestures to the open air before her. "Only if you want to share. I'm just curious about how you ended up here."
"I'm from a planet called Xenia that's all the way on the other side of the universe. I'll save you the gory details but these powers were forced on me. I wanted to do good with them instead of what they were meant to be used for. I bounced from planet to planet until I got here around 1000 AD. I met a group of people who were kind of like me. I stayed with them for nearly nine hundred years before I went off on my own. I met the love of my life who died in front of me and I lost my best friend who sacrificed his life for his country. I became a prisoner of war twice and was off-planet for about four decades before coming back and finding love again only to lose her. I guess I stayed here because I didn't know where else to go. I was with a group of people for twenty years that I called my family, but it's been so long since I've seen them that I can't go back now. Does that answer your question?" you chuckle.
"I would have never guessed. Being alive that long sounds lonely."
"I don't mind it. I've met so many people and seen so many planets. I'm sorry if I seem like I'm pushing this relationship to happen. I am trying to move on, and I figure what better way than to pursue someone new. I hope you don't feel cheap."
"I don't. I get it."
"Well, that's me. What about you?" You lay flat on the ledge and sway your legs lightly. "What's your damage?"
"I was taken when I was really young and placed in a home with another girl who is now my non-blood sister. When were of age, we were taken from that family and placed in the Red Room to train to become assassins. It wasn't fun but I managed to get away while I still could. Fury found me when he sent Clint to kill me, but he decided saving me was better than killing me."
"Do you regret it?"
"Regret what?"
"The Red Room. Your training. Experiencing what they put you through."
"Would you regret it?" she answers your question with a question.
"It made us who we are, right? Do you like you?"
"Look at you with the deep and personal questions," she chuckles.
"I guess after a thousand years, I'm more interested in that than small talk." You don't realize the time until you look at your watch. Two hours have passed since you've arrived on top of the building. This is why you love talking about deep questions because you can get lost in a conversation for hours. "Should we get back?"
"Yeah, probably. Thanks for bringing me up here."
You two stand up and peer over the edge at the city below.
"Have you ever skydived without a parachute?"
"No."
"Do you want to?" you grin. Natasha looks uncertain of this but you grab her hand and intertwine your fingers together. "I wouldn't let anything happen to you. I'll catch you before we get to the ground. We'll do it together."
"Okay," she nods.
You count to three before both of you jump off the edge of the building. You'll never not love the feeling of freefalling, and from the smile on Natasha's face, she loves it. Before you two could hit the ground, you catch her in your arms and fly her back to her car.
"I don't think I'll ever get used to that," she chuckles.
"We should do this more often."
You lean in close and kiss her cheek to keep it sweet and simple.
"I'll see you later... Natalie," you wink.
You two part and you go back to Tony's place where he is still sleeping. You can sleep now knowing that you've got whatever was on your mind out in the open.

Things to Consider Before Purchasing an Emerald Engagement Ring
When it comes to their wedding, including their engagement ring, some modern women have quirky tastes. Customers and jewellers have tried all kinds of gemstones as a substitute for engagement rings for centuries. One fashion that has quickly gained popularity recently is emerald engagement rings. Both antique, simple emerald engagement rings and bespoke, unique rings look great when set with an emerald.
The History of Emerald Engagement Rings
Among the earliest known people to don the emerald ring on the left ring finger were the Sumerians. Emerald was considered to be an anti-inflammatory agent, particularly around the eyes. Traditionally, it was a habit to wear emeralds on the left side of the body as well as to gift loved ones with emerald rings fitted for their left hand's fingers in case they had swelling problems in or around eyes. Emerald engagement rings have gained popularity time-wise and worldwide. Emerald rings of Victorian style and designs in reverence to the past have gained popularity over the years.
Common Shapes and Cuts of Emerald for Engagement Rings
The emerald cut is the most fashionable shape of modern engagement rings. It is an attractive and glamorous shape for a solitaire emerald engagement ring because of its stretched and stretched shape.
The round-cut emeralds rank second to the emerald-cut ones. Accent stones do very well complementing a round-cut emerald in any kind of setting and look stunning as solitaire engagement rings.
Oval-cut emerald rings are also another favorite choice for solitaire engagement rings. Their more elongated shape, similar to emerald cut stones, really makes the appearance of size pop out from the gems. Both of these oval and emerald cut stones will create an illusion that a bride's finger is longer and thinner. This is especially attractive to women who have small hands and fingers.
Cushion cut stones are also used commonly in vintage style antique or even vintage-inspired engagement rings. The soft square shape, without the sharp corners and edges of the square-cut gemstones, helps create a delicate, vintage look with less of the modern "edge" of the pure square-shaped gems.
How to Set an Emerald Engagement Ring
Young brides-to-be today have a strong desire for a stunning emerald ring. The depth and beauty of an emerald engagement ring are too stunning for any bride to overlook. An emerald engagement ring can be customised in a variety of ways, including setting, cut, and style. Love and dedication are symbolised by this attractive and meaningful ring. An emerald engagement ring is the ideal present for your significant other if you want to give them something special.
This ring is timeless because of its rich history and significance. However, if you don't know enough about emerald engagement rings, purchasing one can be a difficult task. Here is a guide to emerald engagement ring settings to help you with your task.
Choosing The Right Metals For Your Emerald Ring
It can go with all types of metal depending on what look is desired. Yellow Gold: It warms up the pure green or yellowish tint emeralds.
White Metals: All emeralds achieve a cool balance by providing palladium, platinum, and white gold.
Rose Gold: This would add deep green undertones of the emerald for romantic contrast in blush-colored tones that would give it a unique vintage-inspired look.
The delicate edges of stone would be further protected with perfect emerald settings. Channel and bezel settings are the most protective to keep its edges stable and secure while prong settings will do but not set too high.
Important Advice for Maintaining an Emerald Ring
The Best Way to Keep Your Emerald Ring Beautiful
Cleaning Instructions: Soak in warm, soapy water. Wipe your emerald diamond ring lightly and very gently with a lint-free cloth and then rinse well.
Avoid exposure to the use of harsh solvents, ultrasonic cleaners, and steam or high heat cleaners.
Maintenance: Remove it before gardening, cooking, or sports practice; occasionally examine the stone and mounting.
One of the best ways to make sure emerald rings are as stunning as possible is through preventative care before they become soiled or damaged. The stone, the setting, and the design of the ring will become apparent with potential problems before the stone is lost or dramatically damaged.

The Best Metal Choices for Women's Lab-Grown Diamond Wedding Bands
Choosing the perfect women's lab-grown diamond wedding band is an exciting and significant decision. While the diamond itself often takes center stage, the metal that holds it together plays a crucial role in both the aesthetics and durability of the ring. The metal you choose can enhance the brilliance of the lab-grown diamond and ensure that your wedding band remains beautiful and resilient for years to come. In this blog, we’ll explore the best metal choices for women's lab-grown diamond wedding bands, helping you find the perfect match for your style and lifestyle.
1. Platinum: The Ultimate in Luxury and Durability
Platinum is a top choice for many brides due to its luxurious appearance and exceptional durability. This precious metal is naturally white, which means it doesn’t require rhodium plating to maintain its color, unlike white gold. Platinum’s natural whiteness enhances the sparkle of lab-grown diamonds, making them appear even more brilliant.
Advantages:
Durability: Platinum is extremely durable and resistant to wear, making it ideal for a wedding band that will be worn daily.
Hypoallergenic: Platinum is hypoallergenic, making it a great choice for those with sensitive skin.
Rarity: As one of the rarest metals, platinum adds an extra layer of exclusivity to your wedding band.
Considerations:
Cost: Platinum is one of the more expensive metal options, but its durability and beauty often justify the investment.
Weight: Platinum is denser than other metals, which makes it heavier on the finger.
2. White Gold: Classic and Versatile
White gold is a popular and versatile choice for women's lab-grown diamond wedding bands. It offers a similar appearance to platinum but at a more affordable price point. White gold is typically alloyed with other metals like palladium or nickel and then plated with rhodium to achieve its bright white finish.
Advantages:
Affordability: White gold is more affordable than platinum, making it an attractive option for budget-conscious couples.
Appearance: The rhodium plating gives white gold its bright, reflective finish, which complements the sparkle of lab-grown diamonds beautifully.
Versatility: White gold pairs well with all diamond shapes and settings, offering a timeless and elegant look.
Considerations:
Maintenance: The rhodium plating on white gold may wear off over time, requiring periodic re-plating to maintain its color.
Allergies: White gold that is alloyed with nickel can cause allergic reactions in some people, so it’s important to check the metal composition.
3. Yellow Gold: Timeless and Warm
Yellow gold has been a classic choice for wedding bands for centuries. Its warm, rich hue is especially striking when paired with the brilliance of a lab-grown diamond. Yellow gold is typically alloyed with metals like copper and zinc to enhance its strength and durability.
Advantages:
Timelessness: Yellow gold never goes out of style and is a great option for those who appreciate traditional and timeless jewelry.
Low Maintenance: Yellow gold requires minimal maintenance compared to white gold, as it doesn’t require rhodium plating.
Complementary Color: The warm tones of yellow gold can create a beautiful contrast with the cool sparkle of a lab-grown diamond, making the stone stand out.
Considerations:
Softness: Pure gold is relatively soft, so higher karat gold (such as 18K or 22K) may be more prone to scratches and dents. Consider a lower karat, like 14K, for added durability.
Style Preference: Yellow gold is not as universally favored as white metals, so consider whether its distinctive color fits your personal style.
4. Rose Gold: Romantic and Unique
Rose gold has surged in popularity in recent years, beloved for its romantic and vintage-inspired look. The soft pink hue of rose gold is created by alloying gold with copper, which also makes the metal strong and durable.
Advantages:
Unique Color: Rose gold’s pink tint offers a distinctive and romantic alternative to traditional yellow or white gold, making it ideal for brides who want something unique.
Durability: The copper alloy in rose gold makes it more durable than yellow gold, making it resistant to scratches and wear.
Warmth: Rose gold’s warm tones can complement a wide range of skin tones and add a subtle, flattering glow.
Considerations:
Color Preference: While rose gold’s unique color is a selling point for many, it may not appeal to everyone. Make sure it aligns with your long-term style preferences.
Copper Sensitivity: Some people may have a sensitivity to copper, so it’s important to ensure that rose gold is comfortable for long-term wear.
5. Palladium: The Modern and Sleek Choice
Palladium is a rare and naturally white metal that is closely related to platinum. It offers a similar look and durability but at a lighter weight and lower cost. Palladium is a newer option in the wedding band market but has quickly gained popularity for its modern appeal.
Advantages:
Lightweight: Palladium is lighter than platinum, making it a comfortable choice for those who prefer a less heavy ring.
Durability: Palladium is durable and resistant to tarnishing, making it a low-maintenance option.
Naturally White: Like platinum, palladium doesn’t require rhodium plating to maintain its white color.
Considerations:
Availability: Palladium is less common than other metals, which may limit your design options or require special ordering.
Cost: While less expensive than platinum, palladium is still more costly than white or yellow gold.
Conclusion
Choosing the right metal for your women's lab-grown diamond wedding band is an essential step in creating a ring that you’ll love for a lifetime. Each metal offers its own unique advantages, from the luxury of platinum to the romantic warmth of rose gold. Consider your personal style, lifestyle, and budget when making your decision, and remember that the metal you choose will play a key role in both the beauty and durability of your wedding band.
By carefully selecting the metal that best complements your lab-grown diamond, you’ll create a wedding band that not only shines brightly but also stands the test of time.

Stackable Rings: Stacking multiple thin gold rings on one finger has become a popular trend. This allows for mixing and matching different styles and creating a unique look.

Vintage-Inspired Rings: Vintage and antique-inspired gold rings are making a comeback. These rings often feature intricate designs, filigree work, and unique gemstone settings.
Mixed Metals: Combining different types of gold, such as yellow, white, and rose gold, in one ring is a growing trend. This adds a modern twist to traditional gold rings.
Custom Rings: Personalization is a key trend, with more people opting for custom-designed gold rings that reflect their unique style and personality.
Conclusion
A gold ring is more than just a piece of jewelry; it’s a timeless symbol of love, elegance, and personal style. Whether you’re choosing a gold ring for yourself or as a gift, understanding the different types of gold, popular styles, and current trends will help you make a choice that will be cherished for years to come.

What is Palladium?
Choosing the perfect ring is an exciting and unique experience. Whether you're shopping for yourself or a loved one, there are many things to consider when shopping for the right ring.
Who discovered it? In 1802 an English chemist and physicist William Hyde Wollaston discovered the element Palladium (which has the periodic table designation of “Pd”) whilst he was trying to purify Platinum. A very clever man he also discovered during his experiments electromagnetic induction and designed one of the first batteries.
Is Palladium used in Jewellery? If you asked 100 people in the street what metals they know of that are in Jewellery I wonder how many people would spontaneously say Palladium?, probably not many. Now that’s a shame, because, it has so much to offer as a metal where it is increasingly gaining popularity with those who want the look of Platinum but without necessarily the expense of that metal.
In fact ithas been used in jewellery since the 1930’s but only became classed as a precious metal in 2010. Since then it has steadily gained in popularity not least for the fact that is less expensive than platinum whilst having very similar properties.
We find that often when couples buy their rings from us the ladies will often choose the Platinum and the men are more likely to choose the Palladium to keep the costs down but have a very similar look as the two metals are almost identical in colour

Before choosing a gold ring, it’s essential to understand the different types of gold used in jewelry. Gold purity is measured in karats, with 24 karats being pure gold. Here are the common types of gold used in rings:
Yellow Gold: Traditional and classic, yellow gold is the most recognized type of gold. It is often mixed with metals like copper and zinc to enhance its durability.
White Gold: Created by alloying gold with metals like palladium or silver, white gold has a silvery-white appearance. It is often plated with rhodium to enhance its luster and durability.
Rose Gold: Known for its pinkish hue, rose gold is an alloy of gold and copper. It has gained popularity for its romantic and vintage appeal.
Green Gold: Less common but equally stunning, green gold is created by mixing gold with silver and sometimes copper.
Each type of gold offers a unique aesthetic and is suitable for different tastes and occasions.
Gold Rings for Women: A Symbol of Elegance and Feminine Grace
Gold rings for women are more than just jewelry; they are expressions of personal style, elegance, and individuality. Whether you are looking for a minimalist band or a statement piece, gold rings offer endless possibilities. Here’s a closer look at some popular styles of gold rings for women:
Engagement Rings: Gold engagement rings have been a symbol of love and commitment for centuries. They often feature a central gemstone, like a diamond, set in a gold band. White gold and yellow gold are popular choices for engagement rings, with rose gold being a trendy alternative.
Wedding Bands: A gold wedding band is a classic choice for couples. These bands can be simple and unadorned or feature intricate designs and engravings. Matching gold wedding bands for the bride and groom are a popular choice.
Promise Rings: Promise rings are often given as a symbol of commitment before an engagement. Gold promise rings for women are delicate and often feature small gemstones or intricate designs.
Eternity Rings: Symbolizing everlasting love, eternity rings are typically given on significant anniversaries. They feature a continuous line of gemstones set around the entire band, often in white or yellow gold.
Fashion Rings: Gold fashion rings for women come in a variety of designs, from bold statement pieces to delicate stacking rings. These rings can be worn on any finger and are a great way to express personal style.
Choosing the Perfect Gold Ring for Women
Selecting the perfect gold ring for a woman involves considering several factors, including personal style, occasion, and budget. Here are some tips to help you make the right choice:
Know Her Style: Pay attention to the type of jewelry she usually wears. Does she prefer classic designs, modern styles, or something more unique? Understanding her style will guide you in choosing a ring she’ll love.
Consider the Occasion: Is the ring for a special occasion, like an engagement or anniversary, or is it a fashion piece she can wear daily? The occasion will influence the design, size, and type of gold you choose.
Choose the Right Size: Getting the correct ring size is crucial. If you’re unsure, consider borrowing one of her rings to get measured or ask her friends or family for help.
Set a Budget: Gold rings can vary significantly in price, depending on the type of gold, design, and any gemstones included. Set a budget before you start shopping to narrow down your options.
Personalization: Consider adding a personal touch to the ring, such as an engraving on the inside of the band or choosing a design that holds special meaning.
Caring for Your Gold Ring
Gold rings are durable, but they still require care to maintain their beauty. Here are some tips for keeping your gold ring in pristine condition:
Regular Cleaning: Clean your gold ring regularly using a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch the surface.
Proper Storage: Store your gold ring in a soft pouch or jewelry box to prevent scratches and exposure to moisture.
Avoid Chemicals: Remove your gold ring before using household cleaners, swimming in chlorinated water, or applying lotions and perfumes, as these can damage the gold.
Professional Maintenance: Consider taking your gold ring to a jeweler for professional cleaning and inspection at least once a year. They can check for loose stones, scratches, and other signs of wear.
Trends in Gold Rings for Women
Gold rings have evolved over the years, with new trends emerging regularly. Here are some of the latest trends in gold rings for women:
Stackable Rings: Stacking multiple thin gold rings on one finger has become a popular trend. This allows for mixing and matching different styles and creating a unique look.
Minimalist Designs: Simple and elegant gold rings with clean lines and minimal embellishments are in vogue. These rings are perfect for everyday wear and can be easily paired with other jewelry.
Vintage-Inspired Rings: Vintage and antique-inspired gold rings are making a comeback. These rings often feature intricate designs, filigree work, and unique gemstone settings.
Mixed Metals: Combining different types of gold, such as yellow, white, and rose gold, in one ring is a growing trend. This adds a modern twist to traditional gold rings.
Custom Rings: Personalization is a key trend, with more people opting for custom-designed gold rings that reflect their unique style and personality.
Conclusion
A gold ring is more than just a piece of jewelry; it’s a timeless symbol of love, elegance, and personal style. Whether you’re choosing a gold ring for yourself or as a gift, understanding the different types of gold, popular styles, and current trends will help you make a choice that will be cherished for years to come.

Choosing the Perfect Men's Diamond Engagement Ring: A Comprehensive Guide
Tumblr media
Choosing the perfect men's diamond engagement ring can feel like a daunting task. With so many options and factors to consider, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. This guide will break down everything you need to know in simple terms, making your decision-making process a lot smoother.
Understanding the Basics What is a Diamond Engagement Ring? A diamond engagement ring is a ring featuring a diamond, traditionally given to signify an engagement to be married. While diamond engagement rings are more commonly associated with women, men's diamond engagement rings have become increasingly popular, offering a sophisticated and stylish way to mark this important milestone.
Why Choose a Diamond? Diamonds are renowned for their unparalleled beauty, durability, and timelessness. They are the hardest natural substance on Earth, symbolizing enduring love and commitment. Their brilliance and sparkle make them a captivating choice for engagement rings.
Key Considerations When Choosing a Men's Diamond Engagement Ring
Style The style of the ring is a crucial consideration. Men's diamond engagement rings come in various styles, including:
Classic: Simple and elegant, often featuring a single diamond. Modern: Sleek and contemporary designs, sometimes incorporating multiple diamonds or unique settings. Vintage: Inspired by designs from the past, offering a timeless and often intricate look. Custom: Personalized rings are designed to match the wearer's style and preferences.
Metal Type The type of metal used in the ring band significantly affects its appearance and durability. Common options include:
Platinum: Known for its strength and hypoallergenic properties, platinum is a top choice for many. Gold: Available in yellow, white, and rose varieties, gold offers versatility and classic appeal. Palladium: A rare and durable metal with a similar appearance to platinum. Titanium: Lightweight and highly durable, titanium is ideal for active individuals.
Diamond Quality When selecting a diamond, it's essential to understand the Four Cs: Carat, Cut, Clarity, and Color.
Carat: Refers to the weight of the diamond. Larger diamonds are rarer and generally more expensive. Cut: Determines how well the diamond reflects light. A well-cut diamond will sparkle brilliantly. Clarity: Measures the presence of internal or external imperfections. Higher-clarity diamonds are more valuable. Color: Assesses the absence of color in a diamond. The less color, the more valuable the diamond.
Setting The setting refers to how the diamond is mounted on the ring. Common settings include:
Prong: Uses tiny metal claws to hold the diamond in place, allowing maximum light exposure. Bezel: Encircles the diamond with a metal rim, providing a sleek and secure setting. Channel: Diamonds are set into a groove within the band, offering a seamless look. Pavé: Small diamonds are set closely together, creating a surface of continuous sparkle. Shopping Tips Set a Budget Could you determine how much you're willing to spend before you start shopping? This will help narrow down your options and prevent overspending.
Research Reputable Jewelers Choose a jeweler with a good reputation. Look for reviews and ratings, and consider seeking recommendations from friends or family.
Consider Lifestyle Could you consider the recipient's lifestyle? If they have an active job or hobbies, a more durable metal and secure setting may be best.
Personalize You can add a personal touch to the ring by engraving a special message or choosing a unique design that reflects the wearer's personality.
Conclusion Choosing the perfect men's diamond engagement ring involves considering style, metal type, diamond quality, and setting. By understanding these elements and keeping the recipient's lifestyle and preferences in mind, you can find a ring that beautifully symbolizes your commitment. Remember, the perfect ring is not just about the diamond engagement rings but about the love and promise it represents.

Choosing the Perfect Gold Engagement Rings for Women: Expert Tips
https://www.wjdexclusives.com/blog/choosing-the-perfect-gold-engagement-rings-for-women-expert-tips/
Choosing the Perfect Gold Engagement Rings for Women: Expert Tips
Tumblr media
Selecting the perfect gold engagement ring for the special woman in your life is a monumental task, one that symbolizes your love and commitment. At WJD Exclusives, we understand the importance of finding a ring that not only dazzles but also aligns with her unique style and personality. Here, Vahan, the founder of WJD Exclusives (@vahanplus on Instagram), shares expert tips to guide you through this significant purchase.
Understanding Gold Types and Purity
Gold engagement rings come in various types and purities, each offering distinct advantages. The most common options include:
Yellow Gold: A timeless classic, yellow gold is known for its warm, rich hue. It's the purest color and the most hypoallergenic.
White Gold: Popular for its modern and sophisticated look, white gold is a mix of pure gold and white metals like palladium or silver, often plated with rhodium for extra shine and durability.
Rose Gold: Increasingly popular, rose gold offers a romantic and vintage appeal. Its pinkish hue comes from mixing pure gold with copper.
Gold Purity: Measured in karats, with 24K being pure gold. However, pure gold is too soft for everyday wear, so it's often alloyed with other metals. 18K (75% gold) and 14K (58.3% gold) are excellent choices, balancing purity with durability.
Matching Her Style
Every woman has her own unique style, and her engagement ring should reflect that. Consider these factors:
Lifestyle: For women with active lifestyles, a lower-profile setting or a ring made with more durable gold like 14K might be preferable to prevent damage.
Fashion Preferences: Observe her jewelry preferences. Does she prefer classic, vintage, or contemporary designs? Take note of the metal colors she wears most often.
Personality: A bold and outgoing personality might favor a more intricate or statement piece, while a minimalist might prefer a simple and elegant design.
Choosing the Right Setting
The setting of an engagement ring can dramatically affect its appearance and security. Here are some popular options:
Prong Setting: The classic and most common setting, prongs hold the diamond securely while allowing maximum light to enter, enhancing the stone's brilliance.
Bezel Setting: A metal rim surrounds the diamond, providing excellent protection and a modern look. Ideal for women with active lifestyles.
Halo Setting: Small diamonds encircle the center stone, adding extra sparkle and making the center diamond appear larger.
Pavé Setting: Small diamonds are set into the band, giving the ring a continuous sparkle. This setting complements various center stones and shapes.
Diamond or Gemstone Choice
While diamonds are the traditional choice for engagement rings, colored gemstones can add a unique and personal touch. When selecting a diamond, consider the 4 Cs: Cut, Color, Clarity, and Carat weight. For gemstones, focus on color intensity and durability.
Personalizing the Ring
Adding a personal touch to the engagement ring can make it even more special. Consider engraving a meaningful date, initials, or a short message inside the band. At WJD Exclusives, we offer custom engraving services to help make your ring one-of-a-kind.
Budget Considerations
An engagement ring is a significant investment, but it's important to set a budget that you're comfortable with. WJD Exclusives offers a variety of payment plans, including Afterpay, Klarna, Zip, Affirm, Sezzle, and ApplePay, to help you manage your purchase.
Expert Consultation

Radiant Symbols of Love: The Perfect Wedding Band for Women
Tumblr media
Radiant Symbols of Love: The Perfect Wedding Band for Women
Choosing a wedding band for women is one of the most significant decisions you'll make while planning your wedding. This cherished piece of jewelry symbolizes love, commitment, and the unique bond you share with your partner. In this guide, we will explore the essential aspects to consider when selecting the ideal wedding band for women, ensuring it perfectly complements her style and reflects her personality.
Understanding the Importance of Wedding Bands
A wedding band for women is more than just a ring; it is a lasting symbol of love and devotion. Unlike engagement rings, which often feature a prominent center stone, wedding bands are typically simpler and can be worn every day. This makes them an essential part of a woman's jewelry collection, representing her journey through life with her partner.
Styles to Consider
Classic Designs
Classic wedding bands for women often feature a simple, unadorned band of precious metal, such as gold, platinum, or white gold. These timeless pieces are versatile and can be worn alone or alongside an engagement ring. Classic bands symbolize enduring love and are a popular choice for those who appreciate minimalism and elegance.
Diamond-Studded Bands
For those who desire a touch of sparkle, diamond-studded wedding bands for women can add a glamorous flair. These bands may feature a single row of diamonds, a halo setting, or intricate designs that highlight the brilliance of the stones. Diamond wedding bands can enhance the beauty of an engagement ring, creating a stunning duo that reflects her personal style.
Vintage-Inspired Rings
If your partner loves nostalgia and intricate designs, consider a vintage-inspired wedding band for women. These rings often showcase unique details such as filigree work, engraving, and milgrain borders. Vintage bands can be crafted from a variety of metals and can incorporate colored gemstones for an added personal touch, making them perfect for a woman with a distinctive style.
Stackable Bands
Stackable wedding bands are a trendy option that allows women to express their individuality. These versatile pieces can be worn together or separately, giving her the freedom to mix and match. Stackable bands come in various styles, including plain, textured, and gemstone-encrusted, providing endless possibilities for customization.
Choosing the Right Metal
Selecting the perfect metal for a wedding band for women is crucial. Here are some popular options:
Gold: Available in yellow, white, and rose, gold is a classic choice known for its warm luster and timeless appeal. Each gold type has a unique hue that can complement different skin tones.
Platinum: Renowned for its durability and hypoallergenic properties, platinum is a luxurious option for wedding bands. Its naturally white finish enhances the brilliance of any diamonds or gemstones set within it.
Palladium: Similar to platinum, palladium is a lightweight, durable metal with a bright finish. It is also more affordable than platinum, making it an attractive choice for budget-conscious couples.
Finding the Perfect Fit
Comfort is key when selecting a wedding band for women. It is essential to find the right size, as she will likely wear the ring every day. To ensure a perfect fit, consider the following:
Sizing: Have her ring size measured by a professional jeweler, especially if she wears different sizes depending on the time of year. Factors like temperature and diet can affect finger size.
Style: Consider the width and shape of the band. Wider bands may feel tighter, while comfort-fit styles are designed with a rounded interior for easier wear.
Personalizing the Wedding Band
A wedding band for women can be made even more special with personalization. Many jewelers offer engraving services, allowing you to inscribe a meaningful date, initials, or a short message inside the band. This personal touch adds sentimental value and transforms the ring into a cherished keepsake.
Caring for the Wedding Band
To keep a wedding band for women looking its best, proper care is essential. Regularly clean the ring using a gentle solution of warm water and mild soap, and avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals. Periodic visits to a jeweler for professional cleaning and maintenance can help preserve its brilliance and integrity.
Conclusion
Choosing a wedding band for women is a beautiful journey that reflects love, commitment, and personal style. By understanding the various styles, metals, and personalization options available, you can find the perfect ring that symbolizes the unique bond you share. With careful consideration and a focus on her preferences, you can select a wedding band that she will cherish for a lifetime, celebrating your love story with every glance.
