The diamond ring has long been the universal symbol of love and commitment. Spanning centuries, cultures and continents, however more than ever that symbol is being re-imagined in a new light. We are living in a time when so many things have changed it is only logical that the engagement ring will change with it. To make it simple, the engagement ring is as individual as your love story, from modern minimalism-to artisan- to classic and everything in between. In this installment we will start with two fantastic options- 

Let us start with a classic- The Diamond Halo. A halo ring refers to an engagement ring with surrounds a central diamond or stone (sapphire is a durable option to add some color and interest) The halo setting gives the illusion of a larger center stone without breaking the budget and also provides the center stone with some protection against nicks and bumps. There is also a beatiful play of light that comes off the smaller diamonds or gemstones surrounding the center. It can be used to compliment many shaped center stones, from the traditional round, to a pear, oval or a fancy cut.
Next lets look at a classic solitaire- 2020 proved to be a year when back to classic was popular, and that was very true in the desire for simple and elegant engagment rings, that are timeless and forever in style. A solitare is best discribed as a diamond (nearly any shape will do) on a simple and classic band. The band is often adorned with smaller stones down the side. When you consider the lenght of time you will likely wear this particular peice of jewelry is truly makes sense to picks something that will never grow old or dated. This is true of the diamond shape as well, if you ever worry about being swayed by trends you will one day not love- just know that a classic round diamond solitaire has been the best selling options of brides for more that 50 years. How is that for the test of time?!
