When purchasing an engagement ring, it’s important you consider the style of your partner. Do they prefer more elegant, sophisticated designs? Classic styles are timeless, and many women prefer an understated diamond ring. Or maybe they’re a little more outgoing and stylish? Picking an engagement style starts at this first step. But what are the different style of engagement rings? Find out below.
These classic settings are a popular choice amongst many. The solitaire style is timeless, allowing the centre diamond to stand tall without any distraction. They’re versatile and elegant, with the bride able to add her personality with the choice of wedding band that accompanies it. The classic design is ideal for the woman who doesn’t need to go overboard with accessories, someone who appreciates the more beautiful things in life. If you go for the round brilliant cut, you’ll find the faceting is perfect for women looking for maximum sparkle from her diamond.
