Halo Diamond Rings and Other Engagement Ring Trends For 2010


Fashion changes with each season but engagement ring styles tend to be consistent each year. You have the various metals to work with, such as white gold, yellow gold, platinum and palladium, and several diamond shapes ranging from round to princess cut, radiant to heart, pear and oval, and marquise, cushion and emerald cuts. Where the trends come from usually originates with the designers who create the masterpieces to be worn for a lifetime, and celebrities who "supersize" a particular style that is featured on the cover of People magazine.

For the year 2010 we've seen some tried-and-true styles come back into the mainstream. Classic diamond solitaires with a round stone between 3/4-carats and 1 1/2-carats are always popular. The vintage-cushion cut diamond set in a platinum ring with lots of micropave diamonds is loved by brides-to-be this year. Yellow gold is the metal of choice for some brides in recent months, although it still ranks lower in popularity than the white metals platinum, palladium and white gold.

One trend that is requested more and more often at jewelers is the Halo diamond engagement ring. The ring style has the distinctive feature of a circle of diamonds, or a "halo" that appears to float around the center diamond. Most halo rings highlight a round or a cushion-cut diamond. Several designers have embraced this style, including Simon G., Tacori and Bridget.

Despite the recent high-profile break-ups of Hollywood's leading ladies, celebrities with seemingly happy marriages do influence what brides request when shopping for their dream engagement rings. Heidi Klum's ring with a dazzling (and huge) yellow/canary diamond is on many "lust lists." Beyonce's massive emerald-cut set in a split shank is requested in a smaller and more affordable price range at jewelry and engagement ring stores across the country, and Fergie's round diamond in a modern style shows that even creative, innovative entertainers still love to stick with tradition once in a while.

Engagement Ring Trends Favor the Individual


Today's engagement ring trends are leaning heavily towards unique, hand crafted, and individual. Long gone are the days when everyone had a version of the solitaire diamond with a plain gold wedder. The rapid increase in the availability of new metals along with computer aided jewelry design equipment is allowing brides and grooms to select engagement rings that are as personalized and symbolic as they wish.

* Textured bands have become huge. Not only in wedding rings, but also the shanks surrounding the engagement ring setting. Engraving, scroll work, filigree, micro pave, and mil grain working are all favorites. Worked metals can be produced in a variety of finishes and couples are leaping at the wide range of choices.

* Stacked bands are also becoming increasingly popular. Rings can come in a variety of colored metals, or alternatively contain different stones in each band. The beauty of this type of bridal set is the different variations the set of rings can provide.

* Multi-colored metals. No-one has to have a yellow gold engagement ring if thy don't want to. Palladium has become a popular choice for those who like the look of platinum but would prefer a less expensive option. Tungsten and titanium are also becoming more available in a huge range of tinted colors including grays and blacks. Engagement ring settings can be crafted from more than one yellow and white metal together. Some girls who prefer a more traditional look are opting for white and rose gold (think Katie Holmes' engagement ring as an example).

* Colored diamonds are available not just in pink, yellow and black. Think gorgeous earthy tones of champagnes, cognacs, and greens. While some colors are more costly, think pink, green and yellow, other hues are less expensive than a standard white diamond. This can be beneficial for the bride who wants the hardness of a diamond but isn't looking for the traditional blue white look.

* Rose cut diamonds are experiencing a surge in popularity as well. This is probably due to a resurgence in vintage style engagement rings, and possibly the fact that they are visually very different to contemporary cuts offering fire and brilliance. The rose cut was extremely popular during the 16th through 18th centuries. The facets tend to be large. Rose cut diamonds can be found in antique jewelry or through enterprising diamond cutters who are now offering the cut in new diamonds.

* Colored gems are hot on the heels of colored diamonds. Rubies and sapphires are only 1 step down in hardness from a diamond and are hardy enough for a lifetime of wear. The dramatic color of these stones can transform a conventional engagement ring setting into eye catching beauty. Semi precious gems are more cost effective, and as a rule are hard enough for everyday wear. Apart from a significantly smaller price tag, there are many, many hues for a bride to select from.

* All in one engagement and wedding rings are also becoming ever popular. These can be a great selection for those who don't like the bother of having to wear 2 separate rings. These rings are often made with a wider band and and provide plenty of design options. These can also be a great option for women who may have plenty of gems or diamonds lying around in jewelry they no longer wear.

Engagement ring trends are becoming increasingly mindful of individuality and uniqueness. Couples are free to have as intricate or as simple an engagement ring as they desire. Custom jewelers can be a great option for those seeking one-off engagement rings.
