We are now looking at the renaissance of the delicately detailed diamond engagement ring. This style is a counterpoint to all of the over-the-top engagement rings which designers have grown accustomed to. While the solitaire ring has never gone out of style, and we truly mean never (it has been the top style for generations!), modern designers have taken new liberties to include romantic flourishes and hidden details. Let’s explore some of the most popular options that take advantage of this lesson in refinement.
Less is More: Delicate Engagement Rings
With the future in mind, modern brides are opting for a delicate, timeless engagement ring that will be as beautiful decades from now as it looks at this very moment. If this sentiment resonates with you, you might want to consider this style. The understated nature of the solitaire coupled with unique design touches means there is a ring for every bride. Here are a few examples to awaken your creativity.
One Extra Stone Is All It Takes: Peek-a-Boo Diamonds
Who doesn’t love a surprise, especially when it’s a drop-dead gorgeous peek-a-boo diamond artfully designed for your eyes only? As jewelry craftsmen like to say, “Heaven is in the details.”
With the first glance at this stunning Fana solitaire ring, you will likely notice the subtle elegance of the oval cut diamond center stone. However, when viewed from an angle, a petite diamond peeks out at the highest point of the bridge. A peek-a-boo diamond is one of the most understated diamond details you can add to your engagement ring.
Let in the Light: Subtle Split Shanks
Carrying on the theme of a twist on solitaire ring designs, a subtle split shank is a delightful variation. The exposed arches around the center stone bring another opportunity to invite light into the focal point of your ring.
Just when you believed the split shank ring was all you could hope for, you will find a hidden diamond winking at you from the side gallery! Light and diamonds can do amazing things together. Take a closer lookat this example.
Demure Glamour: The Hidden Halo
We love the halo ring design for obvious reasons. The added circle of diamonds increases the sparkle factor which enhances the center stone dramatically. But it’s no secret a halo isn’t quite considered “delicate” in design. Until now.
The hidden halo is a stunning arrival that you may not have had a chance to view, we suggest you do!It would be a tragedy for such a sumptuous design to be missed by anyone. With a collar of diamonds resting beneath the center stone, the elegance yet refined beauty of the hidden halo is unmatched.
One Last Secret
Some things are not meant for the whole world to know as they are special and just for you. Set in the inner ring layer or hidden somewhere only you can see, secret gemstones provide symbolic meaning since every stone holds a unique symbolism.
Hearts On Fire captures this feeling with utter ease. In collaboration with Hayley Paige, a renowned bridal dress designer, Hearts On Fire offers a solitaire ring with a secret. A hidden pink sapphire is waiting for you to discover. It is that one romantic touch that seems to bring a personal sentiment to the ring, with meaning imbued through the symbolism of pink sapphire: bringing love and light throughout your journey of marriage.
