When a newly engaged Sylvia Jefferys returned to work this week after getting engaged to Pete Stefanovic in France during their recent holiday there was one thing we couldn’t stop looking at.
Her incredible engagement ring.
While all engagement rings are beautiful, the Today show news reader’s is particularly stunning.
Pete collaborated with Sydney jeweller Patrick Nader of Nader Jewellers – as well as a little help from social media – to come up with the unique creation.
“I looked at her hands close up, I took screen-shots and checked her body type,’ Nader told the Daily Mail. “She has beautiful long fingers, quite slim. I thought the oval shape and diamonds suited her hand type.”
“We can help clients go around social media, get some background on the person, what kind of style they’re into,” he continued.
“When you keep the element of surprise, we find that it’s always more romantic,’ he said. ‘Peter did not want to ask her about anything because he wanted to surprise her.”
Patrick was also the jeweller behind model Jesinta Campbell’s 4.5 carat sparkler which AFL star Buddy Franklin gave when he popped the question back in December 2014.
Jesinta’s ring is believed to be worth between $75,000 and $100,000.
“Jesinta had no idea about (the engagement) and we had to tap into the things she loves,” Nader continued.
“Jesinta is outgoing, a bit more bubbly, a bit more savvy and edgy in her dress code – so we opted for an Asscher cut with some bling around it so it sparkles a bit more.”
