Lucky Princess Diana, she got to choose her own ring from a selection presented by Garrard Jewelers when Prince Charles proposed.

Fitting to the epic love story of Wallis Simpson, the Duchess of Windsor, and Edward VIII, who abdicated his throne for her, the 19.77 carat emerald engagement ring bore a personal inscription.
