Gold, Emerald Engagement Ring

Having studied environmental studies at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, Kate wanted an environmental conscious ring. “I told him I would love anything he chose, but I would prefer not to have the main gem be a diamond,” she says. “Chris surprised me with a beautiful natural emerald with two smaller diamonds on the side and a gold band. I couldn't have been happier with his choice.”
