This Nontraditional Stone Might Convince You to Opt Out of a Diamond Ring
Considering all of the unconventional engagement ring styles that have come to fruition, it’s safe to say that the trend won’t be leaving us any time soon. From cool and unexpected designs to alternative center stones, the rise of nontraditional rings has us looking at this fine jewelry piece in a whole new light.
