Vintage Inspired Engagement Rings

Vintage Oval engagement rings

This diamond shape not only adds classic elegance to a vintage-inspired ring’s overall look, but also maximizes carat weight. The elongated form of an Oval-shaped diamond makes it appear larger on the finger and gives your engagement ring the look and feel of a beloved family heirloom.

Vintage Emerald cut engagement rings

Emerald-shaped diamonds are highly sought after for their linear elegance and intriguing step-cut facets. This clean, elongated shape is actually one of the world’s oldest diamond shapes, giving your ring true vintage authenticity.
 
Vintage Marquise engagement rings

Marquise-shaped diamonds are quintessentially vintage inspired. Their unique navette shape is often associated with rings from the Victorian and Edwardian era. Choosing a Marquise-shaped diamond will give your ring a classic heirloom look and feel.

A vintage-inspired ring is a ring designed in a vintage-era style. Many vintage-inspired rings are crafted to look similar to those made during the Art Deco era in the 1920s Halo or Bezel settings, and tapered baguette side stones are all reminiscent of this era.

Art Deco engagement rings are inspired by a popular vintage style from the 1920s and 1930s. 

Halo engagement rings are quintessential Art Deco style. The circle of diamonds that perfectly surrounds the center stone creates the kind of geometrical pattern that became so popular in this era. The same is true of Three Stone engagement ring settings. 

Although nearly any combination of center and side stones would achieve a vintage look, fancy diamond shapes like Pear, Marquise, and Asscher at the center are particularly Art Deco-inspired. The domed elegance of the Curator engagement ring or the geometrical lines of the Signature V or Signature Bezel make them ideal Art Deco rings, as well.

A simple weekly cleaning routine involves soaking your ring in a small bowl filled with warm water and a few drops of liquid dishwashing soap. After thirty to forty five minutes, remove the ring and brush it gently with a soft-bristle toothbrush, then rinse and pat dry with a soft towel. 

There are no right and wrong options for pairing a wedding band with a vintage or vintage-inspired engagement ring other than making sure the two can be worn together comfortably, if so desired. Traditionally, curved bands, unique or fancy diamond shapes, or pavé and halo details are considered best for a vintage-inspired look, but each couple should choose the pairing that reflects their personal style.
