Posted by Lynne - April 19, 2012
It was only fitting that one of the most beautiful women in the world would be presented with one of the most stunning rings.
When movie star Brad Pitt finally got down on one knee to propose to his long term partner Angelina Jolie he presented her with a $250,000 engagement ring, designed in collaboration with jeweller Robert Procop.
The show stopping ring, featuring an emerald diamond with diamond shoulders cut to encircle her finger, took 12 months to design and make.
No ordinary ring would have done for the Hollywood power couple, who have six children, and famously met on set of Mr & Mrs Smith in 2005.
You can copy the Brad and Angelina ring look with this fabulous emerald cut ring from Chisholm Hunter.
This certificated platinum 2.14ct emerald cut diamond solitaire costs £19,995 more £14,995 although we have a wide range of similar rings in different price ranges.
If however you would prefer to take a leaf out of Brad's book and design your own ring Chisholm Hunter has a team of expert craftsmen who can help you.

Hollywood heart-throbs George Clooney and Eva Mendez were Scotland's dream Leap Year Dates, in a new poll commissioned by jeweller and diamond merchant Chisholm Hunter.
The star of Ocean's Eleven and Oscar-nominated The Descendants, beat fellow actors Ryan Gosling and Ryan Reynolds (joint second) to the top male spot in the survey by the Glasgow headquartered jeweller which has 14 stores under the Chisholm Hunter brand across the UK. In joint third place were Brad Pitt, Bryan Ferry and Justin Timberlake.
Julia Roberts was the second top leading lady followed by Rihanna, Megan Fox and Beyonce, all in joint third place.
Comedians were considered very desirable with newly-single Russell Brand, Stephen Fry and Michael McIntyre all appearing in the survey. Only five Scottish celebrities were voted for in the survey - X-Men's James McAvoy, Billy Connolly, 300 star Gerard Butler, Doctor Who's Karen Gillen and David Tennant.
MAKE THIS VALENTINE’S DAY ONE TO REMEMBER
Posted by Lynne - January 25, 2012
A Tribute To Robert Burns
We are giving customers the most romantic gift of all for Valentine's Day, the poetry of Robert Burns.
From Monday every customer who makes a purchase from Chisholm Hunter, will also receive their own sealed scroll version of Robert Burns' A Red, Red Rose.
The famous song, which is often read as a poem, is believed to have been based on a song Burns heard a girl singing in the countryside. It has been cited by Bob Dylan as the lyric that inspired him most and has been covered by a wide range of artists including Eva Cassidy and Eddi Reader.
Alternatively customers can choose from Wendy Cope's Valentine, an ideal choice for Leap Year proposals, or William Wordsworth's Daffodils.
The new poems follow on from the success of Chisholm Hunter's 'Twinkle Twinkle' Christmas campaign and are being launched in conjunction with its 2012 'The More You Love, The More You Give' window campaign.
Each of the three poems has a different message meaning that they can appeal to those buying both romantic gifts as well as those looking to show a friend or family member how much they mean to them.
We wanted to thank our customers for purchasing jewellery from Chisholm Hunter with these lovely poems, adding a little bit of extra romance to the whole buying experience. We had excellent feedback from our 'Twinkle Twinkle' campaign with many customers coming back to ask for additional copies to frame for their loved ones.
"These scrolls are a reminder to customers of the days of good old fashioned love letters. In the age of emails, Facebook and twitter, it is nice to be able to give something tangible which can be cherished for a lifetime."
