FAQs about Designer Engagement Rings
How much should I spend on an engagement ring?
An engagement ring budget is a very personal thing, and there's no right answer for how much to budget for an engagement ring or wedding band.
Fortunately, the wide range of metal options, carat weights, diamond characteristics, and setting designs available make it easy to find a brilliant designer modern engagement ring at any budget.
How many carats should an engagement ring be?
When it comes to modern unique engagement rings and designer styles, there’s no exact carat weight for the diamonds or gemstones in the ring. Rather than focusing on a center gemstone of a specific size, you should focus on choosing the stone that best fits the wearer’s style and your budget.
Most customers choose a stone of just under one carat, but you can choose any weight diamond or gemstone size for a designer engagement ring.
What shape diamond should I choose for an engagement ring?
Round diamonds are the most popular option, but there are a variety of fancy diamond shapes available, as well. Fancy diamond shapes are often more budget-friendly than round diamonds.
We offer handcrafted designer and modern engagement rings that can fit today’s most popular diamond shapes, making it easy to pick the perfect combination for your special moment. Minimalist modern engagement rings usually feature streamlined shapes like round, princess, radiant, and emerald diamonds. Some of the best designer engagement rings with vintage-inspired styles focus on oval, pear and Asscher cut diamonds.
