What’s Your Engagement Ring Era?
Diamond engagement rings are timeless, but styles can vary wonderfully, affording you the choice between sleek contemporary, chic art deco and whole host of other fabulous styles.
Contemporary
The key to this look is minimalism. White gold engagement rings with a single stone are very popular. One of our favourites is the round, brilliant cut diamond engagement ring (JEM10) held in an unusual three-claw setting.
Art Deco
Art Deco (1920s and 1930s) style exudes chic geometric lines and fine settings. Styles of round, brilliant cut diamond engagement ring such as our JEM38 design are highly influenced by Art Deco’s habit of including smaller diamonds in the setting to create some serious sparkle! The emerald cut three stone diamond ring (M6) is perhaps our most elegant linear vintage-look design.
Edwardian
The traditional multi stone diamond rings of Edwardian England are still popular today. Most Edwardian-look rings are of a three-stone setting like our round, brilliant cut trinity ring (M2)
Victorian
Victorian ladies clearly LOVED diamond rings! Five and seven stone half-loop settings are the order of the day if you’re looking for a little Victorian vintage-look engagement jewellery. A seven stone, brilliant cut diamond engagement ring such as our ET11 design is pure Victorian-inspired vintage-look. Similarly, for the perfect five stone ring, opt for design M4 – timeless and elegance guaranteed.
A tip for the guys – establishing which jewellery era your intended loves most could help a lot on the day you amble into our jewellers looking for the perfect engagement ring.
