Gemstone Centre Stones
Vivid colour and natural charm make engagement rings like this emerald and diamond halo ring stand apart from the crowd. Unlike more traditional diamond rings, gemstone-centred engagement rings bring a refreshing burst of personality and flair. They’re a brilliant match for those who value originality, artistry, and a connection to nature or their birthstones. Paired with shimmering diamonds, the rich green hue of emerald creates a striking balance of elegance and individuality. This kind of ring speaks to romantics and free spirits alike— those who see beauty in the unexpected and want their love story reflected in something bold, meaningful, and truly distinctive.
Distinctive Silhouettes
With its delicately criss-crossing bands and glistening diamond accents, this Modern Enchantment engagement ring from Simon G is a bold departure from the traditional. Sculptural and full of movement, this design speaks to those who embrace modern aesthetics and aren’t afraid to stand out. The organic silhouette adds a dynamic twist, while the side stone diamonds introduce a playful touch of light and personality as they effortlessly draw the eye toward the round centre stone. For someone who wants their engagement ring to reflect their confidence and creativity, this piece delivers on all fronts. It's an expressive design that tells a story as unconventional and vibrant as the love behind it.
Unique Diamond Cuts
Striking and full of character, centre stones featuring uncommon cuts like emerald, marquise, or pear immediately sets an engagement ring apart from the rest. Among them, pear shape diamonds offer a teardrop silhouette that blends the brilliance of a round cut with the edge of a marquise, creating an elongated look that flatters the finger and feels refreshingly unexpected. This TACORI Dantela ring is an excellent example of this, elevated even further with vivid blue side stones that add a vibrant contrast to the centre diamond’s sparkle. Perfect for someone who wants their ring to feel artistic and personal, this design proves that choosing a less conventional cut is a powerful way to make a lasting impression with every glance.
Thick Bands
Large, sculptural bands bring a fresh perspective to more traditional engagement rings settings, offering a confident, more modern take on a time-honoured style. For instance, this Noam Carver ring pairs a wide 14k yellow gold band with a clean solitaire setting, letting the diamond shine while still making a bold visual impact. The extra presence on the finger adds a sense of substance and strength, perfect for those who appreciate minimalist design with a twist. It’s an ideal choice for someone who values simplicity but still wants a ring that feels powerful, current, and full of personality— a sleek statement that speaks volumes without saying a word.
