If your partner loves old-world charm, vintage rings are a beautiful choice. They often have delicate patterns, milgrain, filigree detailing, and colored gemstones as a part of their unique charm. A vintage-style engagement ring feels like a treasure
from another era.
Not everyone likes heavy sparkles. Some prefer simple bands with clean lines. Minimalist engagement ring styles are sleek, light, and elegant – perfect for someone with modern taste. Pick our trendiest collection, such as “ The Enticing Emerald Gold Ring ” or “The Minimalistic Emerald Gold Ring”.
The vivid green color of the emerald gemstone is enough to catch everyone’s eye. Though minimalistic, they reflect modern aesthetics, perfect for the everyday charm.
Apart from styles, one key factor to consider is the gemstone cut. The cut changes how the stone shines and how the ring looks on the hand. Here are some different engagement ring cuts you should know about:
The most popular of all engagement ring cuts, round-cut diamonds are classic and super sparkly. They reflect light beautifully and are loved by many couples.
This is a square-shaped cut with sharp corners. Princess-cut rings look modern and bold, making them one of the most trending types of engagement rings.
Oval cut stones are stretched in shape and make fingers look longer. They give a soft, romantic feel and are becoming more popular every year.
Emerald cut stones are rectangular with step-like cuts inside. They don’t sparkle as much as round stones but have a unique mirror-like shine. Perfect for someone who likes elegant and classy looks.
This cut looks like a pillow, with rounded corners and soft edges. Cushion-cut engagement rings are popular because the gemstone cut reflects brilliance and color the most.
This cut displays a boat or eye look, with pointed ends. It makes the stone look larger and gives a dramatic, royal feel to the ring.
Also called “teardrop cut”, it has one rounded end and one pointed end. Pear cut engagement ring cuts are unique and stylish. These gemstone rings stand out from traditional designs.
The best part is you don’t have to stick with one design. For example, you can have a halo ring with a princess cut diamond alternative like a
yellow sapphire. This subtle gemstone color is reflected beautifully with the cut, giving an eye-catching look. By mixing engagement ring styles and different engagement ring cuts, you can create something unique.
Over the years, engagement ring styles have evolved. Earlier, most people went for solitaires. Now, colored gemstones like sapphire, emerald, and
ruby stone
are also popular. People also love unique cuts like pear and cushion. Some couples even go for custom-made rings that tell their own love story.
Whether you choose a halo, solitaire, or vintage-inspired engagement ring, it's important to select the right gemstone for your ring so that its beauty remains forever. Blue Sapphire and rubies are the best choice for engagement rings. These gems rank well on the hardness scale and thus can be cut in various shapes without wasting much of the stone.
You can also choose other options like opal,
pearl stone, and alexandrite for a unique and stunning look for your ring. It's important to buy gemstones for your engagement ring from a reputable place like Navratan.
