Design variety in simple engagement rings

Even with simple rings you have several choices to make about how the ring should look. Simple doesn't mean boring – it means classically elegant.
If you want an engagement ring without special design features, set with one stone, you still have these choices to make:

• colour and material
• width
• diamond shape and size
• ring size

Are understated rings always cheaper?

The price of engagement rings is made up of several factors. Besides the material of the band, the design also plays a role – though not the most important one. The price is mainly influenced by the quality and the weight of the diamond.
That means a very high-quality, simple ring can be more expensive than an elaborate design of lower quality.

Who are simple engagement rings especially suited for?

The classic elegance combined with a larger diamond really comes into its own when the wearer combines the engagement ring with other jewellery. Then the simplicity looks calm and elegant.
A simple engagement ring with a smaller diamond looks understated, almost unobtrusive. So it suits anyone who otherwise rarely wears other jewellery.
In the end, though, it's always a matter of taste.

Frequently asked questions about simple engagement rings

What happens to the engagement ring after the wedding?

A marriage proposal is usually an emotional and significant moment. The engagement ring is the memory of it and is often worn with pride.
That's why it's no surprise that most of our wedding band customers want to keep wearing the engagement ring after the wedding too. Wearing both rings on one finger is especially popular. If that's not possible or desired, you can of course also wear the engagement ring on one hand and the wedding band on the other.

Is the engagement ring more expensive than the wedding band?

That's very individual and depends largely on your own standards. The engagement ring can become quite expensive with a high fine gold content and a large stone. So it can happen that the wedding band is cheaper if it's narrow and simple. Equally, the proposal could be made with an understated engagement ring while the wedding band ends up being more expensive.

Who pays for the engagement ring?

Usually, the engagement ring is given as a gift. So the person making the proposal pays for the ring.

How do I find out my ring size?

There are many ways to do this, for example using a ring your partner already likes to wear. Another option is a multisizer or a visit to a jeweller. In a consultation, we're happy to help you choose the right size.
