A bride-to-be’s simplistic engagement ring has been criticized online for looking like two paperclips stuck together.
Sharing a photograph of her diamond-free band to social media, the unidentified woman said she was so ‘happy to finally be able to call him (her partner) my fiancée.’
The bride’s engagement ring is made of both gold and silver, but doesn’t boast any diamonds or precious stones.
While she was clearly proud of the understated band, social media users were less understanding.
The image was posted on a Facebook group , where it was inundated with comments mocking the unique ring’s shape.
Instead the two metals meet together in a U shape – but the quirky design didn’t go down well with commentators, who asked if the bride was marrying Microsoft Office assistant ‘Clippy’.
One said: ‘It looks like two paper clips put together. Where did he go shopping? Staples?’
