What’s good for the goose is good for the gander. Or is it vice versa?
Women don’t have sole domain over engagement rings. Times are changing and we’re seeing more and more men wearing engagement rings. You don’t have to be interested in sporting a massive diamond to enjoy wearing a symbol of your love and commitment. And jewellers are designing rings that run the style gamut.
Since there are more styles out there than you might imagine, start by considering what type of ring suits your partner. In this post, we’ll look at several popular styles.
A little sparkle never hurt anyone. When you choose a channel set ring, you get a hint of glamour without ostentation. For a traditional guy, look for colourless diamonds set in yellow gold. But if you’re looking for a more modern flair, try black diamonds set in a white gold or platinum band.
Channel set rings are an excellent option for active guys who like an exciting ring. Because the diamonds are set down in the ring’s channel, the piece has a low profile and won’t interfere with your daily activities.
A rugged man may appreciate an engagement ring that appears to have an earthy appearance. Cutting-edge jewellers are creating all kinds of exciting textures, including a finish that looks like the floor of the Mojave Desert.
The classic herringbone pattern adds elegant interest to a man’s engagement ring. Whether your ring is made of silver, gold, or another precious metal, a herringbone engagement ring will stand the test of time.
Embrace modernity with a square engagement ring. The sleek, straight lines of this design turn your ring into a conversation piece. You may see square rings with a variety of embellishments such as engravings and inlaid gemstones.
Are you having trouble deciding between white gold and yellow gold? Why not choose both? Look for mixed metal rings in a flurry of styles, from stripes and checkerboards to delicately inlaid curves.
Just because you’re a man doesn’t mean you have to forego diamonds. If you’re looking for bling, consider a diamond solitaire set in a channel. This unique design maintains its low profile but delivers serious sparkle.
Can you think of a better way to personalise a ring than to engrave your fingerprint on it? He’s yours, and you’re his, and your ring could be a constant reminder of how perfect the two of you are for each other.
Oxidised rings may be the most eye-catching engagement rings out there. Made from solid sterling silver and random drops of 18k yellow gold, the contrast of the oxidation and blue metal staining create a rainbow effect that is striking in any light.
Take three gorgeous metals: white gold, yellow gold and rose gold. Then braid them into a strand that winds around his finger. Between the vibrant colours and soothing texture, braided rings are works of art.
Hypoallergenic and extremely durable, platinum engagement rings have a bright white-silver finish and luxury timeless look. You’ll pay a premium for this rare, gorgeous metal, but withstands the test of time effortlessly.
Used to make everything from golf clubs to airplanes, titanium is a lightweight, affordable metal that has been steadily growing in popularity with grooms. The metal has an impressive strength-to-weight ratio and can be tinted into a variety of colours.
Wood is not durable enough for a piece of jewellery you’ll wear every day, but some jewellers have combined wood with metals like titanium to create unusual men’s engagement rings. For instance, some rings may have a Koa wood inlay that creates natural texture and visual interest.
