Gemstone Engagement Rings

Engagement rings are a unity between two partners in love, capsulating your love memoir in a piece of jewellery so it lives on to tell its story for generations beyond. With such a meaningful message to declare, choosing the right engagement ring is of paramount importance. Gemstone engagement rings tick all of the boxes: astonishingly beautiful, charismatic in appearance and precious in every way.

Sapphire Engagement Rings

Regarded as one of the most precious gemstones, following on from diamonds, sapphire engagement rings are often a classic choice due to their lustre, clarity and durability. 

A sapphire engagement ring typically features a deep blue version of the gemstone, but the versatile sapphire can be found in a whole spectrum of colours and hues including rose and peach tones. The presence of diamonds with sapphires truly emphasises their natural beauty which is why diamond band and halo rings tend to be a prized choice. 

Emerald Engagement Rings

Emeralds are an increasingly favoured gemstone thanks to their bold and truly captivating appearance, which is why they are often chosen for unique engagement rings. It is worth bearing in mind that with their beauty comes immense fragilette. Due to their low hardness and brittle nature, we only recommend them to be warm occasionally, and not every day. Injecting an abundance of personality and timeless style, their eye-catching hues really stand out from the crowd making them a prominent choice for an engagement ring. 

Emeralds have been popular throughout their existence, with Cleopatra reported to be a huge fan back in her day, and it's clear to see why- it's hard not to fall in love with the beauty of a classic emerald. They are usually exhibited in the typical emerald cut and can be easily adapted to suit most ring styles and compliment all metals with white gold and yellow gold emerald rings serving as popular choices.

Ruby Engagement Rings

Traditionally a captivating, deep red in colour, rubies make for a charming and simply stunning gemstone engagement ring. They symbolise passion and enduring love which, alongside their appearance, denotes why ruby engagement rings are a natural choice. 

Suited to many ring settings and styles, some of our most beloved pieces are rubies set in white gold and accompanied by diamonds. Although, like with many gemstones, there is a great sense of versatility with rubies, as they also compliment platinum and yellow gold rings alike. Our ready-made pieces, semi bespoke and bespoke services, alongside our selection of rubies, mean that anything is possible.
