Diamond engagement ring

Modern Engagement Rings for Women | Popular Styles

Round-cut diamonds are the most popular in the world, so many modern engagement rings feature them. Princess cut engagement rings are the second most popular, and we see them in many modern rings, too. A solitaire -- which is a ring with one single diamond -- has been the most popular choice for many years now, and this continues to be true today.


However, now, other styles are becoming quite popular. Pave settings are completely covered in diamonds, making them a luxurious and popular choice among those who like a little more dazzle. Three stone rings, which represent yesterday, today, and tomorrow in your relationship are also very popular. Additionally, many modern engagement rings are halo or double halo style. Halo rings are a fantastic choice if you're interested in something with a lot of dazzle and bling! Halos tend to make diamonds look bigger, too, so they're a great option if you'd like a blingy ring without having to pay for a bigger carat weight.


Also, diamonds have been the go-to choice for engagement rings for a long time now, but some prefer alternative stones for some reason or another. A colorful sapphire or other stone could be a great option for you if you're interested in something a little more different.


If you'd like to buy a popular, modern engagement ring, we have lots of options for you to choose from, no matter what your style is. From popular designers to less well-known options, we have what you're looking for.


Vintage & Antique Engagement Rings for Less

Maybe you're a bit of an old soul, maybe you like older styles. If you're looking for a more classic engagement ring, we have what you're looking for. Antique engagement rings are rings that are at least 100 years old...they are a true piece of history. Vintage engagement rings are at least 20 years old. There are a number of different eras, each with their own distinctive styles, which were inspired by the time.

  • Victorian Era
