Fabulous Find: Phantom of the Opera Ring

I love this shot at the end of the movie, showing that the Phantom was still watching over Christine all these years, but kept his distance out of respect for Raul. 

I found out recently that the top googleable search was that linked to my site was "Phantom of the Opera Ring", so how could I not help you ladies out and show you some similar rings that you could buy or convince your boyfriend to buy for you and pop the question. Enjoy!! 

Hearts on Fire Collection: Beloved Solitaire

Available on Amazon. 

Tacori ring available at Jones & Son.

The center diamond is a cushion cut instead of a brilliant but with the halo around the center stone it's almost the exact same ring as the one in the movie. This one is from John Franklin Jewelers. 

And for those of you who just want a little extra bling for yourself without breaking the bank, this one is a cubic zirconia option from emitations.
