A Variety of Engagement Rings
Diamond Engagement ring rank among the most popular classes of jewellery, and represent the bread and butter of many a jeweller. These rings can be found in the widest variety of styles, with many an creative design, though for the past fifty years those featuring diamonds have been the bestsellers of all. Traditional diamond engagement rings are called solitaire rings because they feature one single diamond, but they can be had in wide range of different prong settings with any number of band styles.
The one diamond is supposed to represent the one love, enduring as a diamond, but another popular kind of diamond engagement ring is the trinity ring, also known as a trilogy ring, that consists of three matching diamonds set horizontally in a row symbolizing the couple’s past, present, and future together. Religious importance can be interpreted by some with this sort of a style, which frequently features a bigger stone set in the middle of the three.
Another major class of engagement rings are those offering side stones,eg those offering a larger diamond set in the middle while smaller ones accompany it on the side. Then there are whole sets, called a wedding set or a bridal set, which includes an engagement ring and a matching wedding band. These two rings are often designed to appear like halves of each other and can appear “unfinished ” except when assembled or displayed in the presence of the other.
Still other styles in this class of rings are worn stacked, even though either piece can still look appropriate enough when worn separately. In a number of cases, the two pieces, which are sold together, are supposed to be welded together after the wedding, for obvious symbological purposes as well as simpler ones – namely to stop losing one or the other!
