Today's bridal market has an array of spectacular engagement rings including vintage engagement rings and modern ring settings. Yet, the classics have also prevailed. If you are in the market for a ring, don't overlook the beauty of classic engagement rings. From timeless engagement ring settings to simple classic solitaires, their beauty can not be denied. Here are some of my favorites:
Classic Engagement Rings #1: Classic Solitaire Engagement Ring Settings
While trends come and go, the classic solitaire will always survive. Why? The answer is simple; it's timeless. Solitaire engagement ring settings draw the eye to the center stone with minimal distraction. This allows you to focus on an amazing diamond. Therefore, if you want a ring that will defy trends and time, shop for a classic solitaire.
Classic Engagement Rings #2: Channel Set Engagement Ring Settings
Channel set engagement rings are another classic mounting. The well protected diamond shoulders draw the eye into the center stone, especially with a tapered ring like the ring featured above. Regardless of diamond size, this ring is a classic for any bride wanting a little extra sparkle in her ring.
Classic Engagement Rings #3: Eternity Band Engagement Ring Settings
This is the ring for a classic bride that loves "bling." An eternity band mounting is a luxurious classic and needs no additional adornments to turn it into a classic master piece. The total weight of an eternity ring will vary by finger size, so a better way to shop is to compare the individual size of the diamonds used. Happy shopping!
Classic Engagement Rings #4: Rose Gold Engagement Rings
Mixed metal rings, or two-tone rings, have seen a surge in popularity. Luckily, this trend has influenced the vintage bridal movement and we have seen some beautiful rose gold engagement rings come through our workshop. This particular rose gold solitaire is complimented by an 18KT white gold six prong setting. The contrast is beautiful, romantic, and spot-on with today's fashion; proving that classic engagement rings have a place among today's engagement ring trends.
Classic Engagement Rings #5: Simple Engraved Engagement Ring Settings
When you year the words "engraved engagement ring settings," one will often picture a fully engraved, and highly detailed ring. However, engraved mountings vary greatly and can be as simple as this ring, with understated floral engraved sides. This adds a little something extra to a solitaire without undermining the simplicity of a classic solitaire.
