Understanding the different engagement ring styles is a foundational part of the ring-shopping journey. Every relationship is one-of-a-kind, and your ring should reflect that. Whether you're drawn to timeless elegance or something with a modern twist, finding a ring that feels like it was made just for you is a journey we’re excited to be a part of.
In this guide, we'll walk you through five distinct engagement ring styles, each with its own charm and personality. From classic solitaires to contemporary designs, there’s something here for every taste.
When it comes to engagement rings, the options can feel endless, but that’s where the magic lies. At Made You Look, we pride ourselves on creating handmade, unique jewelry that tells a story. All the rings our in-house designers craft are designed with care and a unique story, ensuring that they’re as incredible as the person wearing them.
As you explore these different styles, remember that there’s no right or wrong choice—only the one that feels right for you. Whether you’re drawn to the simplicity of a solitaire, the sparkle of a halo, or the vintage charm of a three-stone ring, your perfect match is out there waiting to be discovered. Let’s dive in!
Solitaire Engagement Rings
There’s a reason why solitaire rings have remained a favorite among brides for generations—they’re the embodiment of timeless beauty and sophistication. The solitaire ring features a single, stunning diamond or gemstone set on a simple, unadorned band. This design choice is intentional; it allows the center stone to truly shine, becoming the focal point of the ring and, by extension, your love story.
We love the simplicity and grace of solitaire rings. Their understated design is perfect for brides who appreciate classic elegance with a touch of modern flair. The beauty of a solitaire ring lies in its versatility. Whether you opt for a traditional round diamond, a chic emerald cut, or a vibrant-colored gemstone, the solitaire setting ensures that the stone takes center stage.
Solitaire with Sparkle Engagement Rings
For those who love the timeless elegance of a solitaire but crave a little extra dazzle, the solitaire with sparkle style is the perfect choice. This design takes the classic solitaire and enhances it with additional stones placed along the shoulders of the ring, flanking the center gem. These extra stones catch the light beautifully, adding that extra bit of “sparkle” and making the ring truly eye-catching. We love how this style combines the simplicity of a traditional solitaire with the brilliance of additional gems, creating a ring that’s both elevated and eye-catching.
Halo Engagement Rings
Halo rings are all about making a statement. Featuring a central diamond or gemstone encircled by a halo of smaller diamonds or gemstones, this design maximizes brilliance and gives the center stone an even more impressive presence. The halo not only enhances the sparkle but also creates the illusion of a larger stone, making it an ideal choice for those who want a ring that makes a statement. They’re the perfect combination of elegance and impact.
Three-Stone Engagement Rings
Three-stone rings, also known as trilogy rings, beautifully capture the story of a couple's journey together. Each stone in this design holds special meaning: the center stone symbolizes the present, while the two smaller stones on either side represent the past and future. This symbolic design is perfect for those who want their ring to not only look stunning but also tell a story. Whether you choose matching gemstones or mix different colors and cuts, this style offers a timeless way to add variety and interest to the design.
One-Ring Engagement Rings
The One Ring, also known as an all-in-one ring, is the perfect blend of modern simplicity and versatility. Serving as both an engagement and wedding ring, this style offers a streamlined approach to celebrating your love. With just one ring, the possibilities are endless—you’re free to choose a design that’s classic, bold, or completely unconventional, without worrying about how it will pair with another band.
We love the freedom and ease that the One Ring offers. Whether you opt for a minimalist design or something more intricate, this style is perfect for those who appreciate simplicity without sacrificing style. It’s a modern choice for the couple who values both beauty and practicality, making life—and love—a little simpler.
