Ah... too bad you only allow me to vote a ring. From those ten I have may that I loved. Start from 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10. They are so lovely. But what I love the most is the sixth so I vote for it. Thanks for spoiling my eyes with these beautiful rings.
For creativity I loved rings 2 and 4. The arrow is so simple, and makes me believe cupid wrapped his arrow around my finger and ring 4 is just to reminiscent of days gone by. But I chose ring 5 as my favorite. If I wore that ring, I would feel like I was blessed by generations before me, like grandmothers smiling down at me all the time, and all there best wishes were there in that ring.

I absolutely LOVE ring #1 - the jewel tones are gorgeous and the design is stunning. There are some very cool rings here and it was hard to choose just one, but #1 is my #1 choice!!
