Mentioned this on the BBM chat channel, here is a ring I made for a store I do work for.
Their customer's wife is blind and he wanted to make a ring that said "I Love U' in diamonds. The Peridot (largest stone, the color looks a little bled out in the pics) is her birthstone and is there to serve as a starting point to read the message.

This was one of the more unique pieces I made this Christmas, I wanted to share it with my fellow BOTL's

She gets it tomorrow, he picked it up a few days ago and loved it.

Here is the Peridot and to the right, the letter "I"

Here is the "L" and "O" and part of the "V"

That is definitely unique, and with serious thought and meaning to it.

Good on the husband for such a thoughtful gift.

And kudos to you for the craftsmanship.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Sweet work. Your customer must either really love his wife, or he messed up bad.JK I love to see unique and meaningful gifts.
