Emerald Engagement Rings
Emeralds are distinct, verdant green gems, which offer a more unusual choice for gemstone engagement rings. Symbolising love and protection, there is so much more than meets the eye with the enchanting emerald.
Emeralds are considered fragile gemstones, so we would recommend a bezel setting as this allows for the most protective surrounding of your precious gemstone.
Here at Holts Gems, we specialise in hand-crafting bespoke emerald engagement rings and stock a number of designs that are ready to view in our Hatton Garden Showroom.
Emerald and Diamond Engagement Rings
Diamond and emerald engagement rings offer the perfect combination of timeless beauty intertwined with unique charm. The many hues of the coveted emerald are enhanced with the sparkling presence of diamonds. Whether you desire a band paved with diamonds or one located either side of the emerald, we have a style perfect for you.
Emerald Engagement Halo Rings
Show-stopping in every way and showcasing emeralds to their full potential, halo rings are an admirable choice. They emphasise the natural beauty of your emerald by framing the gem with a halo of radiant diamonds and diamond set shoulders. Usually set on a white or yellow gold band, our unprecedented craftsmanship promises a high quality-finish and remarkable statement engagement ring.
Emerald Solitaire Rings
With a gemstone as intriguing as an emerald, the beauty of a subtle solitaire ring is all that is needed, after all sometimes less is more. The emerald does all the talking in a solitaire engagement ring with the emphasis on its stunning linear cut which encourages the light to linger and highlight its true delicacy. The beauty of a solitaire ring is how elegantly they sit side by side with a wedding band. Whether you desire a white or yellow gold band, a classic and timeless look is always achieved.

As a true statement piece, emerald trilogy engagement rings feature three gemstones alongside each other. You can decide whether to choose three emeralds, emeralds with diamonds, or even another gemstone - our team of gemmologists are here to guide you.
