Mene 24 karat gold jewelry would make for a great proposal.

I wrote 3 quick reasons why you should propose with Mene here:

In the past five or six decades those of us that live in the west have somehow been brainwashed into buying carbon based diluted ‘gold’ engagement rings for our fiancé.

Instead of pure 24 karat gold like this:

It is fascinating to me that diamonds are promoted so heavily when they are not particularly rare in nature and most certainly not “forever.”

Further, 24 karat gold is extremely rare and DOES last forever.

Just like your <3:

This is common knowledge in the eastern part of the world, especially India where 24 karat gold is a huge part of wedding ceremonies. Gold is sold by gram weight x current metals price + a transparent design fee... just like Mene.

Check out this bride from India decked out in pure gold:

She couldnt look happier!

I found something quite interesting when looking into the history of diamond engagement rings. I have highlighted a few points below:

The very orgins of the myth of the diamond ring engament came straight from an advertisement from Da Beers, pressuring men to spend a months salary.

It is hilarious that a selling point to a lifelong commitment would be your ability to use credit to purchase something you can’t afford.

Wouldn’t it be better to demonstrate how much smarter you are than the average fiancée by buying something that will actually last forever and retain its value like a 24 karat gold Mene ring?

This brings me to my next point highlighted in the article where it mentions that couples that actually spend less on engagement incur less debt related stress and have longer marriages!

All of this points to a simple conclusion...

If you are thinking of tying the knot, better make it a 24k Mene Heart Knot!

They were all outside for a group halloween pict and I was late!

LOL!! Which one are you going to marry?

They have to get approval from mom first, you know how brutal Italian mothers can be so they don't stand a chance!😅

haha nice facts you found there!!! the more expensive your ring the more depressed cos of all the $$ on the ring haha.. nice one..
my ring was really cheap.. and i was a bit sad it was so cheap but the hubby was poor at the time..
it works out better anyway cos I hardly wear the engagement ring now - the diamond cuts things and catches on things! its not practical
The heart shaped mene ring would be quite perfect for a proposal hehehe
if only people didn't value diamonds so much.. but maybe one day you guys can put diamonds on your rings too haha

Ha ha thanks for the story @vincy :) im sure the ring has a lot of sentimental value! ... as far diamonds in mene rings that will never happen lol!! :):)

No diamonds..no thanks.
