First time I saw that I actually thought that it was a great idea, I had never seen such rings. Secondly, it's like our little secret, because no one else would know that the diamonds are there. Hi,

But for myself, I also find it silly, or pretentious. Wear diamonds, or don't, but . . . (and how are you going to clean that??)

The pretentious, stupid kind of symbolic. For people who want to pretend that they don't need diamonds or don't need to show off how wealthy they are.
