Dear Zvi,
My
girlfriend and I got engaged in November of 2007. I took her to Chez
Panisse in Berkeley. It's a really fancy restaurant that I had to call
a month in advance to make reservations. I bought the ring two weeks
before our date. For something so expensive, it sure comes in one ugly
looking box. It was a Scott Kay platinum setting with a 1 carat
diamond. I never even heard of Scott Kay until then but he must be
making a ton of money selling something so small for $2K and that does
NOT include the diamond which was an additional $5K. For spending that
much money you'd think they'd give you something nicer than a cardboard
box with felt on it that probably cost them $1 and was made by slave
child labor in some third world country. In searching for an
alternative, I came across Elegant Woodwork's ringboxes on the internet
and decided to purchase one. I picked one made from a maple burl and
had it engraved with our names and the date of when I proposed. The box
was made to order so it's unique and I know there isn't another
box out there that looks exactly the same. The date went very well. I'm
sure she had an inkling that I was going to do it but she was surprised
none the less. She simply adored the ring and the box. Several people
on the tables next to us congratulated us and actually asked me about
the box and where I got it. You might think, why buy a box that you'll
throw away after you propose anyway? Well my fiancee uses it to store
the ring when she's working with her horses, baking, swimming, or doing
anything else that would put it at risk. It's easy to find, it's
something you'll never throw away on a whim, and it's a pleasant
reminder of when I proposed to her. Compared to the total cost for the
ring itself, the ringbox was worth every penny. Thanks Zvi for a
wonderful product
