They've been on and off like a leaky faucet but after spending Christmas with Deadmau5's family; Kat Von D is sporting a piece of jewellery that screams commitment.

The doyenne of the tattoo parlour showed off a black diamond engagement ring; an expensive promise she obviously received over Christmas at music producer and DJ's family home.

Fans of Deadmau5 know the ring has been a work in progress.

He initially Tweeted a picture of what could've been a stock ring.

It comprised a huge diamond flanked by silver or platinum skulls but he noted that the ring was to be changed to a black stone for his gothic lover.

And the sparkler Kat was showing off was certainly obsidian; and very in keeping with the raven-haired beauty's look.

The couple split up last month after a whirlwind romance, with Kat Von D proclaiming it was a 'no-brainer' to end her relationship with DJ Deadmau5.

But the celebrity tattoo artist very proudly accepted her boyfriend's proposal after he asked her to marry him on Twitter.

'I can't wait for Christmas so.... Katherine Von Drachenberg, will you marry me?' the 31-year-old DJ wrote.

'Changing the diamond to a black diamond FYI. Sorry for the jpg... they'll finish the actual ring soon I hope. I love u,' he wrote.

Kat, 30, promptly tweeted in response: 'Mi corazon! Thank you all for the lovely congratulations! Please excuse me while I go squeeze the hell out of my fiance!'

She also used Twitter to announce their split, and lambaste her ex, in a series of tweets last month.

'Man, I sure was wrong. But at least he made it a no-brainer to break that off. Lesson Learned,' she wrote.

'Clarification: Deadmau5 and I are no longer together.'

The electro-house DJ took full responsibility for the break up on his Facebook page.

'Going to spend a little while screwing my head back on,' he wrote. 'I guess I'm not cut out for relationships right now. and that's all i really want to dwell on it right now. ill figure it out. no hard feelings.'
