Popular Styles Of Engagement Rings

There are many plenty of ring styles to choose from! And although probably you have already chosen your favourite,
here is a useful guide for you to explore.

• 

  Solitaire Engagement Rings

  Solitaire engagement rings have a single stone in a plain prong mounting. The mounting is usually four or six prongs. They are very popular because this style is elegant, simple, and classic. To make the stone look larger, shop for engagement rings with narrower bands or with ring wraps that frame the center stone.

• 

  Halo Engagement Rings

  Halo engagement rings also have a featured center stone and a halo of small diamonds surrounding it. This really increases the sparkle of the ring and also increases the appearance of the size of the ring. You can choose several shapes for the center stone to suit you and your partner’s taste. It is very elegant to choose an alternative stone such as sapphire, tanzanite, or morganite for the center stone in this style of ring.

• 

  Side-Stone Engagement Rings

  Side-Stone engagement rings offer another way to stretch your budget because accent stones add to the overall profile and brilliance of the center stone. The side stones are usually set on either side of the band starting from the top to halfway down the band. The most popular shapes for the center stone in a side-stone engagement ring are round brilliant or princess cut.

• 

  Three-Stone Engagement Rings

  With a Three-Stone setting, you have a center stone flanked on either side by two smaller diamonds. Again, this style offers more value in terms of a rich appearance because the combined brilliance of several smaller stones appears magnified. Generally, the center stone is basket or bezel set higher than the flanking stones, which gives the ring depth. Round or princess-cut stones are the most popular options for three-stone rings as well.

  Vintage Engagement Rings

  Vintage engagement rings combine sturdy modern craftsmanship with intricate old styles. Usually, ornate imagery, filigree patterns, or milgrains can be found on Vintage engagement rings. Vintage engagement rings can be basket-set, bezel-set, or prong-set and feature any shape of diamond. They are a truly unique way to show your appreciation of your bride-to-be’s style.
