Three Classic Styles of Engagement Rings

There are so many styles of engagement rings that you can choose from. Often times people get overwhelmed by the sheer amount of rings there are to choose from, but if you know what type of style you want you can narrow down your choices a lot. If you are looking for a classic style that has been around for many years and will continue to be a timeless classic, here are three different styles to choose from.

Cushion cut engagement rings have been around for hundreds of years and they are still in style today. The cushion cut of the diamond or the gemstone of the ring makes it look unique but it still has that classic feeling to it. A cushion cut stone has a slightly round shape that may have slightly square corners. It can appear more like a round cut stone or a princess cut stone depending on the designer of the ring. With this type of engagement ring you can choose from different mountings. You can stick with the truly traditional setting of a solitaire diamond or you can mix it up a little bit with a three stone mounting with the middle stone being bigger than the two side ones. This all depends on what style you are looking for and what your fiancé may like.

Round Solitaire Engagement Rings: If you really want to stick with a traditional and classic engagement ring setting then go for the classic round diamond solitaire. This may be one of the most classic settings for an engagement ring and you can make it your own depending on what size diamond you choose. Just remember that the bigger the diamond, the more expensive the ring is going to be. Also, when you get to a certain carat of a diamond, usually over 2 carats, the rings gets less traditional and instead becomes flashier. And if you choose to set the ring in a gold jewelry setting, it looks even more classy.

Three Stone Engagement Rings: Although some people consider a three stone engagement ring more modern than classic, it has been around for many, many years. The nice thing about this type of ring is that it does posses a special meaning. Most of the times these rings are referred to as, past, present, future rings,” with each of the stones representing a time in your relationship. This type of ring can also be as large or small as you want with smaller stones being on the sides and a larger diamond or stone in the middle. Hopefully you can narrow down your engagement ring shopping with these three classic styles that will appeal to your woman.
