All fine jewellery falls within a specialist field. Just like you would not spend a small fortune on a house, car or even a designer suit without consulting the experts, purchasing a diamond engagement ring requires some research and a lot of professional input.

What do engagement rings look like?

Although there are timelessly classic engagement ring styles, like the diamond solitaire or three-stone diamond rings we all love, there is no rule as to what an engagement ring should look like. Bearing in mind lifestyle, personal taste and all the possibilities out there, the ring you choose can be as traditional or unorthodox as you like.

Where to begin?

Start with the non-negotiable elements. Perhaps she specifically loves an oval-cut diamond, or she has always said she wants a solitaire. Perhaps the only known requirement is that the ring has a vintage feel or set in white gold.

Bearing these factors in mind, research different styles and stones by visiting a jeweller that carries a large selection of various diamond engagement rings, such as Mark Solomon Jewellers. Our selection offers designer diamond jewellery including the most timeless engagement rings, as well as the rarest fancy cut and fancy coloured diamond rings there is to discover.
