Nicky Hilton has already confirmed what we previously suspected: her engagement ring is absolutely blinding—even from a distance.

The Hilton Hotels heiress took to Instagram on Saturday to share a picturesque photo of herself fishing in France at the Château Lafite Rothschild wine estate, where she flashed the first glance of her impressive diamond engagement sparkler.

While the shot is clearly taken from afar, Hilton's accessory simply can't be missed as the newly engaged celeb enjoys a quiet afternoon outdoors while sporting a patterned dress and flat boots (seriously, how many carats does that ring have?!).

Despite the blingtastic pic, Hilton doesn't seem too keen to show off her sparkler to the world just yet, opting to hide her impressive accessory while out and about in NYC on Monday.

Last week, it was revealed that the 30-year-old beauty is engaged to James Rothschild, heir to the famous European banking family.

Nicky's sister Paris Hilton confirmed the news via Instagram, writing, "Congratulations @NickyHilton on your engagement! I'm so happy for you! You will be the most beautiful bride!"

"Such a lovely couple!" the singer added. "Love you both so much!"

The newly engaged lovebirds began dating in 2011 after meeting at Petra Ecclestone and James Stunt's wedding in Italy. As such, James decided to propose in the same country. "They went on a romantic anniversary trip over the weekend. He took her out on a boat into the middle of Lake Como and he proposed, got down on one knee and everything," a source told Us Weekly. "It was incredibly romantic and beautiful."

Neither Nicky nor James has commented on their recent nuptials—but here's hoping for a close-up ring shot soon!
