The diamond solitaire engagement ring is a traditional ring design that has continued to evolve and meet the desires of almost every bride. Today we see not just round-brilliant solitaires, but elongated cuts like oval, marquise, and emerald shapes, which can be set in either north-south or east-west configurations. The diamond could even be set askew or off center, in a complete reinterpretation of the traditional design. The diamond can be prong set for a more classic look, or if a more modern style is desired, consider a bezel or tension setting. A bezel setting has the added benefit of protecting a diamond from knocks and scrapes.
You can create an even more distinctive ring that is all your own by choosing your favorite metal color — or a combination of colors — and opting for small diamonds or other gemstone accents. The particular way in which all these elements come together is what makes your diamond solitaire distinctive. When that perfect ring is slipped on your finger, it will feel like it belongs there. Even though each design can be subtly unique, all solitaire diamond rings have one thing in common: they have the power to capture the essence of grace and refinement — perfect for those who appreciate understated elegance.
