Vintage
Vintage-inspired or true vintage pieces are both valid in the wedding world and can be quite beautiful too. Whether it’s a ring passed down or a gemstone engagement design filled with Victorian beauty, this is for the bride that’s inspired by outside-the-box thinking and fashion.
Solitaire
It truly doesn’t get anymore classic or quintissentially bridal than with a round, solitaire diamond ring. Made famous by Tiffany & Co., it’s a bride-to-be’s dream to get a beautifully cut diamond in such a simple and chic design. This ring will last throughout the ages, survive all the trends and still look sophisticated and beautiful 50 years into your marriage.
