Put a Ring on It—39 Engagement Rings Any Fashion Person Would Love

We've entered that time of year. No, we're not talking about the holidays. We're referring to the start of engagement season. Statistically speaking, we see the largest number of proposals between November and February. And for those who are planning a proposal (or awaiting one), it can be overwhelming. Perhaps the most trying aspect of all is finding the engagement ring.
First of all, you have to address a learning curve when it comes to shopping for diamond rings, from understanding the four Cs (cut, color, clarity, and carat) to researching what constitutes a conflict-free and ethically made piece. Once you know what to look for, you still have to consider your budget, the brand name, and your partner's personal preferences. All of this is to say that shopping for an engagement ring is not an easy task, and it can become even more challenging if you're shopping for someone picky. We all know that any ultra-stylish soon-to-be-engaged person won't settle for a basic cookie-cutter ring.
Unless they sent you precisely what they want or you already know what you want, we can guess that you clicked on this article because you're stressed about looking for a ring. In order to make the process easier, we've done some research to find 39 unique engagement rings on the market right now. Whether you're hoping to find the perfect engagement ring for your partner, helping someone pick one for a loved one, or trying to drop hints that they need to hurry up and put a ring on it, there's something ahead for everyone.
Searching for an option that's as sustainable as it is stylish? Look no further than Kat Kim. The woman-founded fine-jewelry brand makes every piece in Los Angeles and uses conflict-free diamonds that adhere to the Kimberley Process.
You don't have to spend a fortune on a diamond ring to impress them. Don't be afraid to opt for lab-grown options (like the Pandora ring above), as they're not only more financially accessible but also a guarantee that the stones are conflict-free.
If you're looking to branch out from the classic solitaire setting, then Spinelli Kilcollin's interlocking rings are a great alternative. Drawing inspiration from architecture, each piece features stacked rings made from ethically sourced materials.
While this ring may seem simple at first sight, De Beers's diamonds are far from that. The fine-jewelry brand is meticulous about how it sources its diamonds, its selection process, and its cutting process to ensure that it's creating some of the best rings out there.
Bigger diamonds aren't always better. Sometimes, it really all boils down to the band and cut. Just look to this ring from The Clear Cut as proof. Sure, the diamonds are only 0.24 carats, but the pear-shaped cut and open wraparound band make them feel all the more outstanding.
When it comes to engagement rings, you do get what you pay for. And there's no better example of that than the family-owned fine-jewelry brand Gismondi 1754. It's been based out of Italy for seven generations, with a focus on handcrafting every single piece it makes.
PSA: You don't always have to shop from indie labels to find an unusual engagement ring. The key is to focus on the stone. Opting for precious gemstones and colorful diamonds on simple bands is a surefire way to make sure this ring stands out.
No one wants a cookie-cutter engagement ring. And one way to ensure you don't have one is to shop from the rising fine-jewelry brand Milamore. While its offering isn't technically in the bridal space, it's made waves in the industry for its androgynous pieces that champion eclectic bands and unexpected gem cuts.
