The number 1 in classic engagement rings: the brilliant solitaire
For many years, the brilliant solitaire has held the top spot in the list of most popular classic engagement rings. This classic ring features a single diamond, hence the name solitaire. "Brilliant" refers to the way the gemstone is cut into the distinctive round shape that many women adore. The brilliant solitaire is an excellent choice for traditional, classic ladies who appreciate timeless jewellery.
The ultimate princess experience: the princess cut
The princess cut is also a solitaire diamond, one that gained immense popularity in the 1960s. For these classic engagement rings, the jeweller applies a modern square cut to the brilliant solitaire. The princess cut is the ideal ring for romantic souls who also appreciate geometric shapes. Traditional, but with a trendy touch.
Classic engagement rings with a twist
Are you looking for an engagement ring with angles? Then the Emerald, Asscher, Cushion, or Radiant might be just for you! The Emerald and the Radiant are rectangular cut gemstones with rounded corners. The Asscher and the Cushion have a square shape. Classic engagement rings with angles exude elegance, glamour, and confidence.
Perfect harmony with trilogy
Not a fan of solitaire rings or prefer something more? Then a 'trilogy' ring might be the perfect candidate for you. As the name suggests, a trilogy consists of three stones. These represent the past, present, and future, symbolising your bond. This type of classic engagement ring is also very popular today!
Classic engagement rings with curves
Round diamonds have captured the hearts of many women. The pear-shaped engagement ring is particularly on the rise. Essentially, the pear-shaped (or teardrop) diamond is a round stone with a pointed top that points towards the fingertips. Oval rings are also gaining popularity because they are just a bit different from the classic round engagement rings, adding a personal touch.
Classic engagement rings with a modern twist: discover the halo style
A 'halo' adds an extra layer of stones around the diamond, creating the illusion of a larger stone. Traditionally, classic round engagement rings often feature a halo, but this concept can also be found in angular designs. A halo is the perfect engagement ring for women who love bling.
