Ring Styles Explained

Popular Engagement Ring Styles

Solitaire

A solitaire ring has a single gemstone in the centre surrounded by a simple band. The design highlights the beauty of the stone without distracting from it.

SHOP NOW

Shoulder Set

Typically, an engagement ring with smaller gemstones or diamonds set along the band on either side of the main gemstone.

SHOP NOW

Halo

Featuring a central diamond or gemstone surrounded by a 'halo' of smaller gemstones. It's designed to enhance the primary diamond/gemstone and create an illusion of a larger single stone.

SHOP NOW

Double Halo

A double halo design ring features two concentric circles of smaller gemstones (often diamonds) around a central gemstone. This creates a striking, sparkly effect that makes the central gemstone appear larger at a glance.

SHOP NOW

Trilogy

A trilogy ring has three stones set in a row, often symbolising the past, present, and future. It is frequently referred to as a three-stone ring.

SHOP NOW

5-Stone

A five-stone ring can symbolise love, commitment, trust, communication, and empathy. It can also represent a fifth anniversary, with each stone representing a year of marriage.

Popular Wedding Rings

Eternity

An eternity ring band is set with a continuous line of gemstones, usually diamonds, that symbolize everlasting love. It is also known as an infinity ring.

SHOP NOW

Half Eternity

Unlike its namesake, the bottom half of the band isn't set with gemstones or diamonds... ergo, it's name... Half Eternity ring. It's a popular choice for comfort and budget reasons.

Trilogy

A trilogy ring has three stones set in a row, often symbolising the past, present, and future. It is frequently referred to as a three-stone ring.

SHOP NOW

Patterned

Diamond-cut bands have become popular wedding rings for both men and women in the last decade. They often feature a mix of polished, brushed, and hammered finishes, along with intricate patterned detailing.

SHOP NOW

Two Tone Band

Unlike the classic band, these rings feature at least two metal alloys in trendy combinations. They also often feature diamond-cut detailing. Traditionally, this is the most 'blingy' a gents ring could get before you enter the realms of gemstone set rings.

SHOP NOW

Classic Band

A classic band ring is simple, timeless and often made of a single precious metal alloy like gold or platinum. They're very popular as wedding rings for gents as they've been designed to be worn daily and last a lifetime

Ring Styles for Special Occasions

Cluster

It features multiple gemstones grouped closely, giving the illusion of a single large diamond or gemstone. While glamorous, they aren't always practical due to their shared stone settings, often resulting in loose or lost diamonds/gemstones. At Essex Bespoke Jewellery, we don't recommend this ring style for everyday use, and it should only be worn for special occasions.
