Diamond Engagement Ring Trends
Diamond engagement rings may be the classic choice for a marriage proposal, but the styles are anything but standard. Just like any fashion item trends come and go, and engagement rings are no different. In this article we’ll tell you about some of the latest trends in diamond engagement ring fashion!
Vintage Style
Whether you’re talking about clothes or jewellery, vintage is in! If you don’t feel comfortable wearing a ring that once belonged to someone else, but crave that elegant vintage style you’re in luck. A growing trend in engagement rings is vintage style rings. These are not actually vintage, but if you keep that little piece of information quiet no one would be the wiser.
Vintage style rings often display an intricately designed setting, usually adorned with smaller diamonds, and a spectacular centre stone. These rings are sure to make a bold statement and there isn’t a diamond jewellery blog on the net that hasn’t picked up on this growing trend.
Platinum
Although gold will always be the classic choice, platinum is rising in popularity! It has all the beauty of silver, plus the durability of a heavy metal, making it a great choice for a contemporary ring.
Not only does platinum’s silvery lustre compliment the brilliance of diamonds, but it will also never tarnish. It is in a sense, the perfect companion to any diamond.
Solitaires
More of a staple than a trend, solitaires have never gone out of style and are still one of the most popular choices for engagement rings.
Solitaires are usually just a single diamond set on a wide or thin band, however they can be accompanied by matching baguette-cut stones or a diamond encrusted band. The solitaire style is also versatile and works with any diamond shape!
Bespoke
A growing trend in the celebrity world is the bespoke engagement ring. These are rings which are designed by the customer and custom made by the jeweller.
Bespoke rings allow you to incorporate individuality, creativity and personal touches to an engagement ring. And what better way is there is symbolize the love and union of two individuals?
