antique engagement rings white gold

What is your favorite type of engagement ring? *pic*?
Would the band be gold, silver, platinum, white gold, etc...
Would you just want diamonds, or a mix of diamonds and something else?
How many stones and what size; solitaire, three, an entire band of stones?
What shape would you want (princess, emerald, marquis, pear, etc)?
Would you want something engraved on it? Do any of your choices have symbolic meaning?
Vintage, antique, heirloom, so many choices!
Post pics if you want. Here's my fav:

Classic =) But I would appreciate a well-loved heirloom even more!
What about you?
My engagement ring is AMAZING. My fiance had it custom made for me and my love of anything PINK! He also knew I really wanted a Canadian diamond, so I was so excited/surprised when he popped the question with the most perfect ring (and what it looked like was a total surprise).
It's a three stone, white gold ring with a trellis style setting (a cross-over type design on the side of the setting). The centre diamond is 0.6 carats, excellent cut, F colour(less), VS2 clarity. Because I have very tiny fingers (size 3.5) my fiance saved money on getting a smaller size diamond and splurged on getting a really high quality one. Anything bigger than 0.7 would have gotten so knocked around on my little hands (the jeweler who made my ring advised home of that), and because the cut rating is so high is so SO sparkly! I've had strangers walk up to me an compliment my ring on how it bounces light around the room ... it's breathtaking every time I look down at my hand and see it (and think of my amazing fiance)!
What makes my ring truly "mine" is that instead of a three-stone diamond ring, the side stones are pink sapphires. I love pink, and this ring is definitely just for me!
I am not really a fan of three-stone diamond rings (probably because I love my pink side-stones), but I also like kind of antique looking rings too. My ring is very "timeless" in style, because it's so simple. We are having a matching band made with alternating diamonds and pink sapphires around it, with a mill-grain edging, which to me looks very victorian. My fiance is having a plain white gold mill-grain edged band made for him.
