What are Traditional English Engagement Ring Styles?
The solitaire engagement ring is a style that has stood the test of time. Considered the most popular traditional English engagement ring style, buyers often choose a solitaire ring for its classic elegance and ability to showcase the true beauty of the gemstone.
Engagement rings with diamond accent stones are always a very popular choice among brides-to-be. These intricate and ornate rings make for quite the statement piece, and are available in highly personalised designs.
Where Does England’s Love for Coloured Gemstones Come From?
While diamond rings are a popular choice for lovers of tradition and class, colourful gemstones are a fantastic option for anyone looking to make their engagement ring truly unique. As traditions change over time, there are no hard or fast rules when it comes to choosing an engagement ring.
Our advice is to choose an engagement ring that matches your personality and desires.
How Does the Royal Wedding Affect the Traditional English Engagement Ring Market?
Today, the royal weddings remain as influential as ever. Often, the gemstone chosen for the engagement ring is believed to be a sign of how a marriage will turn out. Those who believe in such superstition questioned whether Kate Middleton's blue sapphire engagement ring was the best choice, since it came from Diana (William's mother) who famously had a very unhappy marriage.
The stylistic choices of the royals have also been a hot topic of conversation in England. Our advice would be to take inspiration for your special engagement ring from any source that resonates most with you.
