                Understated details

Detailing on the side of the collet/band by adding intricate details or an extra diamond added on the side makes sure that the focus is not taken away from the centre diamond. Another hidden and popular touch to add a detail is via engraving, although this is done mostly in the inside of the band and doesn’t add a visible element to the ring, yet for someone who sees the ring from every angle, it’s a little something that’ll literally brighten up her day.

The brilliance in these diamonds tends to be dependent on a particular cut and clarity. You can be rest assured that you will find something according to your taste for sure.

                       For old souls, another alternative in diamonds are rose cuts. This engagement ring design is for someone looking for a true vintage look. These diamonds have a flat faceted domed look with almost a flat bottom and no pavilion at the bottom of the stone.

                        Unique Gemstone

                          With the focus on breaking the tradition, some couples want to look beyond the traditional diamond altogether and embrace other gemstones which usually have a much transparent sourcing process. While choosing a gemstone your choice can be dependent on either a colour that is special to you or you can choose a birthstone and design your ring around it. This is certainly a way of making your ring unique and personal to you. Gemstones also can make even the most traditional looking design appear bolder and brighter. There is no shortage of colours and hues while selecting a gemstone, from bright red rubies to rustic looking green emerald. Sapphires also provide a variety of colours and have a certain brilliance to them. Gemstones also provide people on certain budget to create a beautiful timeless ring without compromising on quality and design. Since unique is the base theme of these new trends, it’s not surprising that unusual colours are also popping up. More and more couples are embracing stones like Moonstones, Labradorites and opals which usually have multi coloured hues giving each stone a unique character. Another big benefit of these rings is that they can also double as a right hand or cocktail ring, especially since they are much more cost efficient than a colourless stone.
