Engagement Ring and Wedding Ring – 4 Tips from a Renowned Jeweler

From the series: “Golden Tips” – Mark Pjetri

An engagement ring and a wedding ring are not merely pieces of jewelry, but symbols of your love and the story you are just beginning to write.

1. What are the current trends?

Yellow gold models are currently extremely popular, with stone shapes varying. Recent trends show a growing demand for rings featuring oval or emerald-cut center stones. Young couples are particularly delighted by combinations of emeralds or sapphires with diamonds. Through the design of their engagement and wedding rings, the couple creates their own fairy tale, as this piece of jewelry will remain part of their story for a lifetime.

2. How to personalize rings?

Couples design their engagement and wedding rings with the help of our master goldsmiths. An engraving is about more than just names and dates. We love it when couples think outside the box and choose to engrave something that will make them smile or feel moved—now and thirty years down the line. It could be a special quote, an inside joke, or a symbol that holds special meaning for your relationship.

3. How to choose the right stone?

Gold wedding rings featuring diamonds are often the first choice, yet an increasing number of couples are opting for more creative combinations. Each gemstone carries its own symbolism and story—an emerald can represent eternal love; aquamarine, serenity and clarity; amethyst, a deep connection; and citrine, happiness and warmth. The choice of gemstone can reflect an individual’s personality or the unique dynamic of the couple’s relationship.

4. Extra expert tip

When choosing rings, consider your daily activities.

Please keep in mind that gemstones such as sapphires, emeralds, and rubies require careful handling and should be kept away from creams and perfumes. The gold components of engagement and wedding rings are not indestructible either, so we recommend removing the rings while cleaning or when visiting a swimming pool.
