2021 Engagement Ring Trends
An engagement ring is more than a beautiful piece of jewelry, it is a symbol that marks an important step in the life of a couple and received at any time of the year, but … what if we were inspired by the latest trends to choose?
A decision for life
More than a ring that meets the standards of the latest trends, engagement rings, like wedding bands, should be pieces that (if love lasts forever, as we hope it will for you) will be with us at all times.
Engagement rings are symbols that commemorate a great promise, the memory of an eternal love. Given their importance, a ring of this caliber should look beautiful on any occasion or time of the year.
So, as we said before, it should not only be part of the latest fashion, but also comfortable and adaptable to any outfit.
In search of a unique expression of love
With a market crowded with classic pieces, the common center diamond ring model seems to be a bit left behind by the other options. While no one has yet dethroned the king and may not in the near future, for the past couple of years couples have been focusing on increasingly unique designs that make them feel special.
Elongated 5-stone models, spirals and stackable bands are the order of the day. It’s not a category for everyone, but more and more couples are insisting on exploring one-of-a-kind custom models.
Pieces with great meaning
This season under the post-pandemic context some have had to be separated or away from their families. With limited contact and even the difficulty of being able to leave the house for a while, some things seemed to lose importance and others as simple as a hug or being able to be with those you love have become very important.
Engagement ring trends reflect couples’ interest in rings with deep and symbolic meanings. Birthstones, infinity rings and 3-stone designs (past, present and future).
Yellow Gold
Yellow gold engagement rings? Crazy? Not really. Yellow gold has become the king of precious metals in almost every category. The yellow metal is shiny, elegant and can look fantastic even in small pieces, giving it incredible versatility.
A yellow gold engagement ring is a great way to catch the eye of the one you love, highlighting the wearer’s most beautiful features and style this season.
Eternity Bands
Eternity bands are jewelry given to commemorate events of utmost importance. A special anniversary, the end of a long career and of course engagement. Whatever the reason, infinity bands are pieces that symbolize love without limits and that is a message that will never go out of style.
Infinity Rings are elegant and beautiful. The gemstone inlay makes them highly customizable as each color symbolizes a personality and has a story behind it — “Inspired by your essence”.
Bands are sometimes even preferred as wedding bands — why? They are extremely comfortable to wear and the elegant settings allow you to sanitize your hands comfortably without accumulating residue.
Timeless classics
True love never goes out of style. Yes, I know it feels a little cheating to mention the classics after we gave fabulous reasons to change our minds, but you can’t cover the sun with a finger. Classic models are and maybe always will be an important part of trends, but this time, some stylish variations might make you look different.
Colored pieces and side diamonds is a good way to cover classic perspectives while achieving authenticity. Fancy settings or diamond inlays on the metal band can give that unique and distinguished touch to the classic engagement ring this 2021 season.
