You know the type of jewelry that can't be removed once it's worn, like we see in sci-fi movies? A talisman touches the wrist, locks swiftly, and stays on forever. That's exactly what permanent jewelry is. It's trending right now, and people are talking about it a lot. At the same time, many people are confused and have questions like: Is it comfortable? Is it painful? Is it hygienic? Is it meaningful? Is it costly? All of these questions are answered in this guide. Let's find out everything from A to Z about what permanent jewelry is. [KEY TAKEAWAYS] Permanent jewelry is clasp-free jewelry, usually a bracelet, anklet, or necklace, that is custom-fitted and welded shut while you're wearing it. The welding process is painless, takes under two minutes, and is performed by a trained jeweler using a micro-pulse welder. "Permanent" means designed for continuous wear, not literally impossible to remove; it can be cut off with small scissors when needed. The trend is driven by a desire for effortless, always-on jewelry with personal meaning, not by the welding itself. You don't need welded jewelry to wear jewelry permanently. Fine jewelry built from solid precious metals and secure closures achieves the same result with more flexibility. What Is Permanent Jewelry? Permanent jewelry is exactly what the name suggests: jewelry designed to stay on your body continuously, with no clasp, hook, or mechanism to open and close it. Instead of a traditional closure, a trained jeweler fits a delicate chain to your wrist, ankle, or neck and uses a specialized micro-pulse welder to fuse both ends of the chain while you're wearing it.  It goes by several names: forever jewelry, infinity jewelry, zapped jewelry, welded jewelry. The names vary by studio. In permanent jewelry, the most common styles are bracelets and anklets.  Necklaces are less common in permanent jewelry because they're difficult to wear comfortably while sleeping. Permanent jewelry can also include rings, but they're generally not recommended because finger size naturally fluctuates over time, making a permanent fit impractical. Why Permanent Jewelry Is Trending Just like the promise ring trend popped up in the 1990s, the reason behind its boom was the promise of commitment. Before that, romantic jewelry was mostly limited to lovers. Promise rings, friendship rings, and similar pieces made symbolic jewelry more accessible to everyone. Now, we've gone one step further. We always find new ways to express ourselves; that's human nature. And that same nature has brought us to permanent jewelry. The number one reason it's trending is that it's something new. For a long time, we thought of jewelry as something you slide on and take off. Permanent jewelry changes that. It stays with you like a true companion. It saves time, becomes part of your everyday look, builds a sense of identity, and for many people, even becomes part of their personal reputation or signature style. But there's symbolism behind it too. Many people get permanent jewelry with someone special, a partner, a best friend, a sibling, or a mother and daughter. The shared act of having matching pieces welded on together becomes the experience, not just the jewelry. It's closer to a ritual than a purchase. Here's your content with grammar, spelling, and readability improved while preserving your natural writing style and ideas. Does Permanent Jewelry Welding Hurt? When we say permanent jewelry is fitted to your body using welding, many people assume it must be painful. But in reality, it isn't. You don't feel any pain. The entire process takes about 2 minutes and is very delicate. How Permanent Jewelry Welding Is Done You Choose Your Chain and Metal First, you choose the style of chain you want to wear. Most permanent jewelry studios offer chains in 14K gold, gold-filled, or sterling silver. Some of the most common permanent jewelry chain styles include: Cable chain Rope chain Paperclip chain Figaro chain Beaded chain The Jeweler Fits the Chain to Your Body After choosing your chain, the next step is finding the perfect fit. The jeweler measures your wrist, ankle, or neck and asks how you want it to fit, snug against the skin or with a slight drape. Once you're happy with the fit, the jeweler cuts the chain to your exact measurement, allowing for the tiny amount of length added by the weld. The Weld The jeweler places a thin protective barrier between the chain and your skin. Using a micro-pulse welder, they fuse the two ends of the chain at a single point. The heat is concentrated entirely on the metal and never comes into contact with your skin. During the weld, you'll notice a brief flash of light, a soft zapping sound, and possibly a slight warmth near the connection point. The actual weld takes only 30 to 90 seconds. Quality Check The jeweler inspects the weld to ensure it's secure and smooth, with no sharp edges. They may gently polish the connection point so it's completely seamless. You'll be asked to move your wrist, ankle, or neck to confirm the fit feels comfortable. Is Permanent Jewelry Actually Permanent? Permanent jewelry is not permanent in the absolute sense. It's "permanent" in the context of continuous wear. It isn't impossible to remove; a pair of small scissors or jewelry snips can cut the chain at any point along its length in just a few seconds. In fact, if it were impossible to remove, it wouldn't be practical. There are situations where you can't wear metal jewelry, such as during an MRI scan, certain surgical procedures, or some sports and physical activities. In these cases, the chain can be easily removed and, if you wish, welded back on later. How Long Does Permanent Jewelry Last? If it's made from solid 14K gold, permanent jewelry can last for decades, potentially a lifetime. Gold doesn't tarnish, rust, or weaken from everyday activities like showering, sleeping, or exercising. Most permanent jewelry doesn't fail from normal wear. Instead, it usually breaks because of a strong pull, snag, or impact. A properly welded joint is typically just as strong as the rest of the chain, so the weakest point is often the thinnest link, making chain thickness an important factor. What Can Shorten Its Lifespan? Chains under 1 mm are more delicate and prone to breaking. Lower-quality metals like gold-filled or sterling silver wear faster than solid gold. Harsh chemicals such as bleach and chlorine can damage the metal over time. Poor-quality welding can create a weak connection that may fail. If your chain does break, don't worry; it can usually be repaired or re-welded by a jeweler, provided the break is clean. How Much Does Permanent Jewelry Cost? The cost of permanent jewelry mainly depends on the metal, chain style, and the studio you choose. Sterling Silver ($35–$75): The most affordable option. Suitable for everyday wear but prone to tarnishing over time, making it less ideal for long-term permanent jewelry. Gold-Filled ($50–$150): Offers the look of solid gold at a lower price. However, the gold layer gradually wears down with years of daily wear. 14K Gold ($100–$500): The most popular choice for permanent jewelry. The final price depends on the chain's style, thickness, and length. A delicate bracelet costs less, while thicker chains or necklaces cost more. 18K Gold ($300–$800+): Richer in color and gold content but softer than 14K gold. It's chosen mainly for its luxurious appearance rather than everyday durability. Additional Costs to Consider Charms or gemstones: $20–$200+ Re-welding after removal: $15–$30 Chain repairs: $15–$50, depending on the damage While the initial price is important, also consider long-term costs. If you expect to remove and re-weld your jewelry for medical procedures or other reasons, those additional fees can add up over time. Here's a more concise version that keeps your balanced, informative tone while improving flow and removing repetition. Is Permanent Jewelry Right for You? Whether permanent jewelry is right for you depends less on how much you like the look and more on your lifestyle. It's a great choice if your daily routine is fairly consistent. If you rarely need MRIs or surgeries, don't work in an environment with jewelry restrictions, and want to wear the same piece every day, permanent jewelry can be a beautiful, low-maintenance option. Before making the decision, ask yourself: Do you have regular medical procedures? MRI scans and some surgeries require all metal jewelry to be removed, which means cutting and re-welding the chain. Does your workplace restrict jewelry? Many healthcare, food service, and manufacturing jobs don't allow bracelets or other jewelry during work. Will your body size change? Pregnancy, weight fluctuations, and seasonal swelling can affect how the jewelry fits. Do you enjoy changing your jewelry? If you like matching jewelry to different outfits or occasions, a permanently welded piece may feel limiting. Are you sure you'll want to wear it every day? While it can be removed, each removal requires cutting the chain, and re-welding usually comes with a fee. If several of these situations apply to you, permanent jewelry may not be the most practical choice. However, if your lifestyle is stable and you're looking for a simple piece of jewelry you'll happily wear every day, permanent jewelry delivers exactly what it promises. If you love the look but prefer more flexibility, high-quality fine jewelry with a secure clasp offers a similar everyday experience without the commitment of a permanent weld. Permanent Jewelry: Pros and Cons What works well: No clasps to fumble with; your jewelry is simply always there, no daily ritual required Solid 14k gold handles showering, swimming, sleeping, and exercising without tarnishing or degrading Getting it done with someone carries a shared meaning that buying from a display case doesn't Where it creates friction: No rotating pieces; what you chose on welding day is what you wear every day until you cut it off Re-weld fees accumulate fast if your lifestyle involves frequent MRIs, medical procedures, or workplace jewelry restrictions. Fit has no easy fix; weight changes, pregnancy, and seasonal swelling affect how a welded piece sits. The upfront cost ($100–$500 for 14k gold) doesn't include re-weld fees or replacement if the chain breaks unexpectedly. Why 14K Gold Is Good For Permanent Jewelry Most permanent jewelry studios offer sterling silver and gold-filled options alongside 14k gold. Both are less expensive. Neither holds up the same way over continuous wear, and when a piece never comes off, that difference becomes visible over time. 14k gold is the standard recommendation for permanent jewelry, because: It doesn't tarnish.  It handles water without degrading. It is durable enough for daily life without being too hard to work with.  It is hypoallergenic for most skin types.  It holds its weld.  18k gold is a step up in purity and richness of color, but it is softer than 14k and more expensive. For permanent jewelry specifically, where durability under continuous wear matters more than maximum gold purity, 14k is the practical choice most jewelers and wearers consistently land on. Permanent Jewelry Styles What you wear every day should feel just as comfortable at 7 a.m. as it does at the dinner table. Here's how each permanent jewelry style performs in daily life. Bracelet The most popular permanent jewelry style. A bracelet is always visible, has a low risk of snagging, and rarely causes issues at work or during everyday activities. Choose a chain between 1.2 mm and 1.8 mm—fine enough to feel almost weightless, yet strong enough for everyday wear. Chains thinner than 1 mm are more delicate and prone to breaking. Stacking is also common. Many people start with a single bracelet and come back later to add more. Anklet An anklet is an excellent choice for people who prefer subtle jewelry. It stays below the ankle, making it less noticeable in workplaces where wrist jewelry may stand out. The main trade-off is durability. Anklets experience more friction than bracelets because they constantly rub against socks, shoes, and boot shafts. If you regularly wear boots or high-top shoes, choose a chain that's 1.5 mm or thicker for better durability. Necklace A permanent necklace offers a clean, uninterrupted look with no clasp breaking the chain's line. It's one of the most understated and elegant ways to wear permanent jewelry. The challenge is getting the fit right. Neck size naturally changes throughout the day more than wrist size, so careful measuring is essential to ensure the necklace stays comfortable for long-term wear. Ring Most experienced jewelers recommend permanent rings with caution. Finger size changes throughout the day due to temperature, hydration, weight fluctuations, and even pregnancy. A ring that fits perfectly today may feel tight in summer or loose in winter, and because it's welded, it can't be adjusted. If you decide on a permanent ring, it's best to get fitted later in the day, when your fingers are naturally at their largest. Popular Permanent Jewelry Chain Styles Cable Chain The most popular choice. Flexible, comfortable, durable, and easy to weld, making it ideal for everyday wear. Rope Chain Made with twisted links that create extra texture and sparkle. Slightly stronger than a standard cable chain. Paperclip Chain Features flat, elongated rectangular links for a clean, contemporary look. It sits differently against the skin and has a modern aesthetic. Figaro Chain A classic pattern of alternating short and long links. It offers a more structured, traditional appearance. Beaded Chain Consists of small round beads that create a lightweight, delicate look. It's especially popular for permanent anklets because of its subtle style.

We've spent years obsessing over celebrity engagement rings from Hollywood, the actresses, the pop stars, the reality TV royalty. But what about the athletes? The ones with 700 million Instagram followers.  The ones whose sneakers sell out in seconds, whose haircuts get copied by teenagers on four continents, whose every outfit becomes a trend before the week is out. Sports stars are style icons too, and right now, with FIFA World Cup fever gripping the entire planet, there's no bigger name on earth than Cristiano Ronaldo. So today, I'm taking you inside Cristiano Ronaldo's engagement ring. Wait,  not his. Its Hers. Georgina Rodríguez's engagement ring. The one that took nearly ten years to arrive. But when it finally did, it broke the internet in a single Instagram post. Let's talk about it. The Cristiano Ronaldo Engagement Ring at a Glance Before diving into detail, here's what the evidence tells us about Georgina's ring, based on expert analysis from gemologists at National Jeweler, 77 Diamonds, and Stephanie Gottlieb Fine Jewelry: Center stone: Oval-cut diamond, estimated between 22 and 35 carats Side stones: Two oval-cut diamonds, estimated at approximately 1 carat each Total carat weight: Estimated up to 37 carats Setting: Platinum, double-claw prong Style: Three-stone (trilogy) design Estimated value: $3 million to $5 million USD, with some expert estimates reaching $10–12 million Color/clarity: D color, internally flawless, the highest grades available, based on expert photo analysis The Style of Cristiano Ronaldo's Engagement Ring Cristiano Ronaldo gave Giorgina a three-stone oval diamond ring. The ring has all three stones with the same oval cut. Most three-stone engagement rings combine different shapes, a round center with baguette side stones, or an oval flanked by trillions. The ring appears to feature a platinum three-stone setting with petite double-claw prongs.  The Size Because the ring has never been officially graded or documented, all figures are based on expert analysis of photographs. Even so, the estimates are remarkably consistent. Jewelry experts interviewed by People, InStyle, and Vogue Arabia estimate the center diamond to be between 22 and 35 carats.  The Cost Most experts value the ring between $4 million and $5 million, assuming the diamonds are natural and possess exceptional color and clarity. Other estimates range from $3 million to as much as $15 million. These figures come with an important caveat. No official lab report has been released about the ring. What we know comes from credible industry voices, Gemologist Stephanie Gottlieb, estimating the center stone at 22 to 30 carats, in a quote to National Jeweler. Kegan Fisher, co-founder of Frank Darling, estimated that it is "definitely over 15 carats, and more likely in the 20–25 carat range." Tobias Kormind of 77 Diamonds, placing the ring's value around $5 million in comments to The Mirror. None of them had the ring on a bench. All of them were working from the same Instagram photographs as the rest of us. But when multiple credible professionals, working independently, arrive at figures that cluster in the same range, that consensus is the most honest number available. Love Story Behind The Cristiano Ronaldo Engagement Ring In 2016, Georgina Rodríguez was working as a sales assistant at a Gucci boutique in Madrid. She was 22 years old, Argentine-Spanish, and a former ballet student who had moved to the city on her own, building her life one retail shift at a time. Then Cristiano Ronaldo, already one of the most famous people in the world, walked through the door. She later shared the story in her Netflix documentary I Am Georgina, telling it with the calm of someone who has repeated it countless times and still finds it hard to believe. After they met, Ronaldo started picking her up after work in a Bugatti. Georgina remembered that her coworkers couldn't quite believe what they were seeing. Ronaldo was just as open about how he felt. "I didn't expect it, honestly. But after a while, I felt that she was the woman of my life." What followed was a nine-year relationship lived almost entirely in the public eye. Together, they moved across five countries, played for three football clubs, lived on two continents, and generated more headlines than either of them could count. In November 2017, they welcomed their first daughter together, Alana Martina. Just months earlier, Ronaldo's twins, Eva María and Mateo, had been born via surrogate. His eldest son, Cristiano Jr., had been under his sole guardianship since 2010. Within a single year, the couple had gone from dating to raising a family of six. Georgina stepped into that role without hesitation. By every public account—through her interviews, Ronaldo's comments, and the family's social media—she became just as much a mother to Cristiano Jr. as she was to her own daughters. On his 14th birthday, she wrote: "Happy birthday to my big boy. I love you to the moon and back." Then came April 2022. Georgina gave birth to twins, but their baby boy, Ángel, died during childbirth. Sharing the heartbreaking news, the couple wrote: "It is the greatest pain that any parents can feel." His twin sister, Bella Esmeralda, survived. She is now three years old and, judging by every family photo since, has become one of the most cherished members of a family that no longer takes a single moment for granted. Through every move, every trophy, every loss, and every new beginning, Ronaldo had long referred to Georgina as his wife. He used the word in birthday tributes, interviews, and casual social media posts. Emotionally, the title came long before it was official. Whenever he was asked about proposing, Ronaldo would simply say he was waiting for "that click", the right moment. Fans waited with them, convinced it would happen eventually, even if no one knew when. On August 11, 2025, the click finally came. When Georgina Rodríguez posted a single photo on Instagram, she needed only a few words. "Sí, quiero. En esta y en todas mis vidas." "Yes, I do. In this life and in every life." But almost nobody was reading the caption. Everyone was looking at her hand.  What Is So Special About Oval Diamonds The oval diamond is the second most popular diamond shape in the world right now, and for good reason. What makes an oval diamond special is its elegant egg-like shape, which is especially flattering on long, slender fingers like Georgina's. Another reason people love oval diamonds is their visual illusion. If you wear a 1-carat oval diamond ring, it naturally looks larger than a 1-carat round diamond because of its bigger face-up appearance. Recently, oval-cut diamonds have found a place in the hearts of many celebrities. From Hailey Bieber to Blake Lively and Kourtney Kardashian, the oval diamond has become one of the biggest engagement ring trends in recent years. If you'd like to learn more about this trending diamond shape, read our detailed guide to oval cut engagement rings. It covers everything you need to know, from its unique features and ideal proportions to the best settings and buying tips. Why Ronaldo chose a Three-Stone Setting A three-stone ring, also called a trilogy ring, is more than just a design choice. Each stone represents a chapter of the relationship. The three diamonds symbolize the past, present, and future. The left stone honors the memories you've built together. The larger center stone represents the love you share today. The right stone looks ahead to everything still to come. Now think about that in the context of Ronaldo and Georgina. Nine years together. Five children. A family built across Madrid, Turin, Manchester, and Riyadh. Moments of incredible joy, alongside unimaginable loss. Choosing a three-stone ring wasn't just about style; it was about telling their story. But Wait - There Was Another Ring Before This One If you've been following Georgina's social media closely, you may have noticed something interesting. Before the oval engagement ring that took the internet by storm in August 2025, there was already a very serious diamond on her finger. A promise ring. Worth $4 million.  The ring featured a striking emerald-cut diamond in a classic solitaire setting on a substantial platinum band. Clean, bold, and impossible to ignore. Today, Georgina wears both. The oval engagement ring sits on her left hand, exactly where it belongs, while the emerald-cut promise ring has moved to her other hand. It's still very much there and still very much part of their story. Get the Look: Diagaa's Version of Georgina's Ring  Taking inspiration from Cristiano Ronaldo's engagement ring for Georgina Rodríguez, we've created our own version at Diagaa. It captures the same elegant three-stone oval design but at a price that costs only a fraction of the original. Our version ranges from around $1,000 to $15,000 for a ring with a 4-carat center stone, depending on the diamond and metal you choose. Yes, the price is only a fraction of what Ronaldo spent, and the diamonds are also much smaller than the ones Georgina wears. But as far as the overall look is concerned, the resemblance is remarkably close. If you've fallen in love with Georgina's iconic engagement ring, our Diagaa three-stone version lets you enjoy the same celebrity-inspired style without the multi-million-dollar price tag.

Our celebrity engagement ring series has brought us today to Beyoncé's engagement ring, a masterclass by Lorraine Schwartz, who has created many other celebrity engagement rings as well. Although Beyoncé's ring came into existence more than 20 years ago when she got engaged to legendary rapper Jay-Z, people still look to it today for inspiration when creating rings for themselves. Let's take a look at what Beyoncé's iconic Type IIa emerald-cut engagement ring holds inside. The Love Story Behind the Beyoncè Engagement Ring Beyoncé Knowles and Shawn Carter, known to the world as Jay-Z, have been private about the details of their relationship. They made their public debut as a couple at the 2004 MTV Video Music Awards, but neither confirmed nor denied what was already obvious. For years, the relationship existed mostly in the space between denials and song lyrics. The proposal itself happened in a private way. Multiple sources suggest Jay-Z proposed on December 4, 2007,  his own 38th birthday,  though the location and exact circumstances were never officially confirmed.  Some reports place it in Paris, one of Beyoncé's favorite cities. The only thing that we certainly know is that Jay-Z went to extraordinary lengths to create this iconic engagement ring for Beyoncé. What makes the proposal story even richer is something Beyoncé said afterward. In an October 2008 interview with Essence Magazine, she admitted she had told Jay-Z not to buy her a ring, that "it's just material, it's silly."  She said they'd agreed on matching tattoos instead. And then, as if to demonstrate exactly how well Jay-Z knows her, he presented her with one of the most extraordinary diamonds ever placed in an engagement ring setting. He did set a perfect example of the quote "I don't need a ring" is the perfect ring. Eventually, they married privately on April 4, 2008, at Jay-Z's New York penthouse with a circle of about 40 close friends and family. It seems that the number four runs deep in their union: both were born on the fourth day of their respective birth months, their wedding fell on 4/4, and they later got matching Roman numeral IV tattoos on their ring fingers as their true wedding bands. Blue Ivy's very name carries the IV. The Beyonce Engagement Ring: Complete Specifications Credit: Mason Poole/Parkwood Media/Getty ; Kevork Djansezian/Getty Beyoncé's engagement ring was designed by Lorraine Schwartz, the New York-based jeweler who has created iconic pieces for Beyoncé, Blake Lively, Kim Kardashian, and Angelina Jolie. As neither Beyoncé, Jay-Z, nor Lorraine Schwartz has publicly disclosed the exact details of the ring, some aspects can only be estimated. Certain features, such as the diamond shape, metal type, and setting style, are clearly visible and can be confidently identified.  However, specifications like the diamond's exact carat weight, quality, and value have been estimated differently by various experts. Even these experts cannot claim the exact specifications without thoroughly examining the ring under professional gemological equipment, so their conclusions are based on experience and visual analysis of available photographs. As far as the diamond shape is concerned, Beyoncé's engagement ring features an emerald-cut diamond. The most widely cited figure is 18 carats, sourced from senior designer Emma Fathers of Jessica Flinn Jewellery, who told Hello Magazine: "At the heart of Beyoncé's engagement ring is a white diamond which boasts exceptional colour, clarity, cut, and carat weight, which we estimate to be approximately a staggering 18 carats."  Other respected sources, including James Allen's gemologist team and PriceScope, place the stone closer to 24 carats, citing the diamond's face-up dimensions in available photographs. Another detail that has been widely reported by multiple sources is that the diamond is a Type IIa diamond, a very special category of natural diamond that we will discuss in the upcoming section. Photos of Beyoncé's engagement ring suggest a split-shank design with a pavé band setting, where micro-pavé melee diamonds line both sides of the divided shank. The ring is believed to be crafted in a white metal, most likely platinum, as white gold is generally not considered durable enough to securely support a diamond of this size over the long term. The Type IIa Diamond in Beyoncé’s Engagement Ring Beyoncé is a legend in her profession, and so is Jay-Z. When two icons like them exchange engagement rings, you would expect the ring to be legendary as well. To make it truly one of a kind, Lorraine Schwartz reportedly chose a Type IIa emerald-cut diamond as the centerpiece. Type IIa is a very rare category of natural diamond with a unique chemical structure that only a small percentage of diamonds possess. Some of the most famous diamonds in human history share this classification.  The Cullinan Diamond,  the largest gem-quality rough diamond ever discovered and now part of the British Crown Jewels,  is a Type IIa diamond. The Koh-i-Noor is also believed to belong to this rare category. Finding a Type IIa diamond is rare on its own, but finding one with exceptional clarity is even more extraordinary. This combination of Type IIa rarity and near-flawless quality is one of the reasons Beyoncé's engagement ring is considered so special.  More than two decades after it was first seen, the ring remains one of the most iconic celebrity engagement rings in Hollywood history and continues to inspire engagement ring lovers around the world. Architecture of the Beyonce Ring The architecture of Beyoncé's engagement ring is not as instantly eye-catching as rings like Lainey Wilson's or Megan Fox's, which make a bold fashion statement at first sight. Beyoncé's engagement ring takes a different approach. Rather than relying on an elaborate design, it is all about the extraordinary rarity and size of the diamond itself. As far as the design is concerned, the ring features a relatively thin band crafted from a white-colored metal. Most jewelry experts believe the band is made of platinum, as it provides the strength needed to securely support a diamond of this size.  The most distinctive design element is the split-shank band, a feature that has become one of Lorraine Schwartz's signature design details. In a split-shank design, the band divides as it approaches the center stone, creating two separate strands of metal that wrap around either side of the diamond. This design creates several practical and visual advantages. First, the split visually frames the center stone and lifts it off the finger, creating an almost floating appearance. The negative space on either side of the diamond makes the center stone appear even larger and more prominent than it would in a traditional solitaire setting of the same carat weight. On an already enormous diamond, this effect becomes especially dramatic. The pavé-set melee diamonds running along each strand of the split shank create a “travelling sparkle” effect.  How Much Does Beyoncé's Engagement Ring Cost? Unlike many other details surrounding Beyoncé's engagement ring, the original purchase price is widely reported. Jay-Z is believed to have paid approximately $5 million for the ring when he commissioned it from Lorraine Schwartz in 2007.  This figure has been cited by multiple entertainment and jewelry industry sources, including Page Six and People Magazine, and aligns with what a diamond of this caliber would have commanded in the luxury market at the time. To understand why a $5 million price tag was not an exaggeration, it helps to understand one of the most important principles of diamond economics: diamond pricing is not linear. As a diamond's carat weight increases, its price per carat also rises because larger diamonds are exponentially rarer than smaller ones. A flawless, colorless 1-carat diamond might sell for $8,000–$15,000 per carat.  However, a 2-carat diamond of the same quality does not simply cost twice as much. The price per carat increases significantly because diamonds of that size become increasingly difficult to find. At the upper end of the market, where stones reach 18 carats or more and possess exceptional characteristics such as Type IIa purity and near-flawless clarity, pricing becomes even more complex. Diamonds of this caliber often trade through private transactions rather than standard wholesale pricing systems because comparable stones are so uncommon. What Experts Say About Beyoncé's Engagement Ring Value While the original purchase price is often reported as $5 million, current valuations vary depending on the assumptions made about the diamond's exact size, clarity, and rarity. Emma Fathers, Senior Designer at Jessica Flinn Jewellery, provided one of the most detailed modern estimates in a 2024 analysis for Hello Magazine. According to her assessment, "with the diamond's impressive size and flawless quality, the ring carries an estimated current value of between $5.9 million and $6.6 million." Other independent jewelry experts have suggested even higher figures. Some valuations place the ring's current worth at approximately $6.89 million, while Hamra Jewelers has estimated that the ring could be worth more than $9 million based on today's market conditions. Why Beyoncé Rarely Wears It Beyoncé reportedly told Jay-Z in the beginning that she did not want any material gift and preferred that they get matching tattoos instead. That is exactly what they did with their famous "IV" tattoos, which became a symbol of their relationship. From the very beginning, Beyoncé was never focused on getting a famous engagement ring. But Jay-Z still got her one as a symbol of his love, and not just any ring. He commissioned what would eventually become one of the most iconic celebrity engagement rings ever created. Now, when you own a ring that is essentially a museum piece worth millions of dollars, it is understandable that you cannot wear it everywhere. It is not exactly the kind of ring you would wear to an NBA game, a concert at Madison Square Garden, or even a quick trip to the grocery store. As a result, the ring is believed to spend most of its time safely stored in her private collection while Beyoncé wears alternative options for everyday occasions. Based on available photographs over the years, those alternatives are usually much simpler bands and more practical jewelry choices. For a ring of this rarity and value, that approach makes perfect sense. Some engagement rings are made to be worn every day, while others become part of jewelry history. Beyoncé's engagement ring arguably belongs in the second category. Iconic Beyoncé’s Engagement Ring It's been 20 years since Beyoncé got this museum-worthy piece from Jay-Z. Although she is rarely seen wearing it, Beyoncé's emerald-cut engagement ring is one of the most memorable engagement rings of the 21st century and will be talked about for a long time to come, not because of the design, but because of the rarity and size of the diamond.

Let's turn our attention to Anne Hathaway's necklaces.  Recently, we have discussed a lot about celebrity engagement rings, where we looked at so many famous engagement rings decorating the fingers of elite Hollywood celebrities. But what bad have necklaces done? Why do people talk less about famous necklaces despite them being the first thing you witness in a jewelry look? So, to fill this gap and make you aware of the gorgeous necklaces that Hollywood glamour has witnessed, we have created this guide for you. And no celebrity is better to consider than Anne Hathaway when it comes to necklaces, an official Bulgari brand ambassador, and someone blessed with a long neck and the perfect face shape to highlight necklaces. So, let's get started. Anne Hathaway Is a Modern Necklace Icon  Anne Hathaway is not just one of Hollywood's most celebrated stars, having featured in a bunch of legendary movies such as The Princess Diaries, The Devil Wears Prada, Les Misérables, Interstellar, and Ocean's 8. Apart from her acting career, she possesses another unique characteristic: her physical features. Her long neckline, balanced facial features, and unique sense of styling have made her an ideal canvas for high jewelry.  In fact, these qualities helped her become an official Bulgari brand ambassador, regularly showcasing some of the world's most spectacular jewelry creations. Combined with her successful Hollywood career, this has allowed Hathaway to wear several legendary necklaces in recent years, both on screen and on the red carpet.  Let's take a closer look at the most famous Anne Hathaway necklaces that have captivated audiences on screen, on the red carpet, and everywhere in between. Ocean's 8 Cartier Jeanne Toussaint Necklace Courtesy: Cartier and Warner Bros. Pictures In the list of legendary necklaces worn by Anne Hathaway, the necklace she wore in Ocean's 8 takes first place. The necklace is known as the Cartier Jeanne Toussaint Necklace. The reason this necklace became so famous, while most jewelry worn on screen goes unnoticed, is that it has a real history behind it. The movie itself became historic for jewelry lovers because this necklace was inspired by a legendary Cartier creation originally made in 1931 for the Maharaja of Nawanagar in India, one of the most extravagant jewelry collectors of his time. Anne Hathaway wore the necklace throughout the film, and in fact, the entire movie revolves around stealing this spectacular piece during a glamorous gala event. How Was the Cartier Jeanne Toussaint Anne Hathaway Necklace? The necklace worn by Anne Hathaway was a recreation of the original masterpiece. The historic necklace featured the famous 136.25-carat Queen of Holland diamond and was decorated with an extraordinary collection of white, pink, blue, and green diamonds. Crafted in white gold, it was considered one of Cartier's greatest creations. Based on its portrayal in Ocean's 8, the necklace was estimated to be worth around $150 million, making it one of the most valuable pieces of jewelry ever featured in a Hollywood film. While the original necklace no longer exists in its complete form, Cartier recreated it for the movie using historical references, allowing audiences to witness a modern version of one of the most legendary necklaces ever made. The Devil Wears Prada Layered Necklace Looks Courtesy: 20th Century Studios. Not every famous Anne Hathaway necklace needs to be a museum-worthy masterpiece or a million-dollar Bulgari creation. Sometimes, a necklace becomes memorable because of the role it played in fashion history. That is exactly what happened in The Devil Wears Prada. The movie follows Andy Sachs' transformation from an unfashionable journalism graduate into someone who can confidently navigate the world of high fashion. As her wardrobe evolved throughout the film, so did her jewelry. Instead of relying on a single statement necklace, the movie featured a variety of layered necklaces, pendant necklaces, and fashion-forward jewelry pieces that helped complete Andy's transformation. How Were The Devil Wears Prada Necklaces? Unlike the historic Cartier necklace from Ocean's 8 or the high-jewelry Bulgari pieces Anne Hathaway would later wear on red carpets, the necklaces in The Devil Wears Prada were intentionally wearable and trend-focused. Many of the pieces featured delicate chains, layered designs, metallic finishes, and fashion jewelry styling that reflected the luxury fashion trends of the mid-2000s. Their purpose was not to showcase extraordinary gemstones but to visually demonstrate Andy's growing confidence and entry into the fashion world. Even today, fashion lovers revisit the movie for outfit inspiration, and the jewelry remains an important part of the character's iconic makeover. While no single necklace became legendary on its own, the collection of necklaces worn throughout the film helped create one of the most memorable fashion transformations in movie history. Cannes 2022 Bulgari Sapphire Necklace Coutsey: Bulgari and Getty Images While the Cartier Jeanne Toussaint necklace was Anne Hathaway's most talked-about on-screen necklace, her most talked-about red carpet necklace is the one she wore at the Cannes Film Festival in 2022. By that point, she had already established herself as one of Bulgari's most important ambassadors. However, after this Cannes appearance, she took her reputation as a jewelry ambassador to another level. She appeared in an elegant white gown while wearing a spectacular necklace featuring a royal blue sapphire as the center of attraction. In many ways, the white gown seemed designed to highlight the necklace, allowing the sapphire and diamonds to become the true stars of the look. How Was the Cannes 2022 Bulgari Sapphire Anne Hathaway Necklace? The centerpiece of the necklace was a large cushion-cut sapphire, surrounded by an intricate arrangement of diamonds that enhanced its color and brilliance. Instead of looking overly extravagant, the design achieved the perfect balance between luxury and elegance. The contrast between the deep blue sapphire and Anne Hathaway's white gown created one of the most memorable jewelry moments of the festival. Even years later, when jewelry enthusiasts and fashion experts discuss famous celebrity necklaces, this Anne Hathaway necklace almost always finds a place on the list. Met Gala 2023 Bulgari Monete Coin Necklace  Courtesy: Bulgari and Getty Images The world was yet to get out of the intoxication of Anne Hathaway's Cannes 2022 necklace when she dropped another bomb at the 2023 Met Gala. But what she brought this time was a historical masterpiece. This necklace carried centuries of endurance, survival, and history. Unlike her Ocean's 8 necklace, which was loaded with some of the world's most valuable gemstones, this time it was more about the message than luxury. How was the Met Gala 2023 Bulgari Monete Coin Anne Hathaway's Necklace? The necklace was created by Bulgari, but the most attractive part of the piece was not a diamond or a sapphire. It was a real ancient coin from the Roman Empire. Yes, Bulgari literally incorporated ancient Roman coins that had survived for centuries and transformed them into a high-jewelry masterpiece. Instead of relying on massive gemstones to attract attention, the necklace relied on history itself. This made the piece feel less like a traditional necklace and more like wearable history. While many celebrities arrived at the Met Gala wearing oversized diamonds and extravagant gemstones, Hathaway's necklace stood out because it told a story. After all, diamonds can be mined again, gemstones can be discovered again, but a piece of history that has survived for centuries is something truly irreplaceable. Met Gala 2025 Bulgari Sapphire Necklace Courtesy: Bulgari and Getty Images Two years later, the Met Gala arrived again, and Anne Hathaway arrived once again as well. But this time, she was not wearing antique Roman coins. Instead, she showed up with one of the most modern-looking necklaces she had ever worn, a piece that instantly turned cameras toward her. And yes, it was sapphire again. At this point, it almost feels like Anne Hathaway is in a love affair with sapphires. Just like her famous Cannes necklace, this spectacular blue gemstone became the center of attention. The large sapphire necklace quickly became one of the most photographed jewelry pieces of the evening. While the Met Gala is known for extravagant outfits and dramatic fashion statements, Hathaway once again proved that a great necklace can steal the spotlight all by itself. How was the Met Gala 2025 Bulgari Sapphire Anne Hathaway's Necklace? The necklace featured a substantial rectangular sapphire positioned at the center and surrounded by a dazzling arrangement of diamonds. The clean geometric shape of the sapphire gave the piece a distinctly modern appearance, exactly the kind of bold yet elegant design that Bulgari is known for. Oscar's 2013 Tiffany Diamond Necklace Courtesy: Tiffany & Co. and Getty Images Not every legendary necklace needs a rare sapphire or a historic story behind it. Sometimes the moment itself makes the jewelry unforgettable. That is exactly what happened with the Tiffany diamond necklace Anne Hathaway wore to the 2013 Academy Awards. This was one of the most important nights of her career. Hathaway won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in Les Misérables, forever securing her place among Hollywood's elite performers. Naturally, every detail of her appearance was closely watched, including her jewelry. How Was the Oscars 2013 Tiffany Diamond Necklace? The necklace featured elegant Tiffany diamonds that complemented her pale pink Prada gown beautifully.  The diamonds provided just enough brilliance to elevate the look without overwhelming it.  Looking back, the necklace remains memorable not because it was the biggest or most expensive piece she has ever worn, but because it accompanied one of the greatest achievements of her career. For many fans, this will always be remembered as the necklace Anne Hathaway wore on the night she became an Oscar winner.

Final Thoughts So, these were five of the most legendary necklaces Anne Hathaway has worn throughout her career. Surely, there are many other pieces she has worn that regularly catch the attention of cameras and jewelry enthusiasts, but these five are widely considered among her most iconic necklace moments.

Engagement ring trends change every year. Some styles fade. Some stay forever. And some arrive so suddenly that within months, everyone seems to be wearing them. These are the engagement ring styles that are defining 2026, the ones our designers kept seeing, kept being asked about, and kept falling in love with. If you are still deciding what kind of ring feels right, start here. Trending Diamond & Gemstone Choices For decades, colourless diamonds were the only serious option for an engagement ring. That has changed. New technology, shifting tastes, and a genuine desire for something personal have opened up the category completely. These are the stone choices defining the market right now. Colorful Birthstone Engagement Rings Ruby, emerald, sapphire, and diamond engagement rings have ruled the jewellery industry for a long time. But today people want something more than beautiful. They want meaningful. That is why birthstone engagement rings are one of the fastest-growing trends of 2026. Couples are choosing their own birthstone or their partner's as the centre stone, not just for the colour, but for what it represents. A ring that carries your birth month carries something a diamond alone cannot. Most months have more than one birthstone option, which gives you more colours and more choices than you might expect. Champagne Diamond Engagement Rings Champagne diamonds have a warm, slightly brownish tone, somewhere between chocolate and the colour of a glass of champagne. They are real diamonds with the same hardness, brilliance, and durability as colourless stones. Only the colour is different. And the price. Champagne diamonds are often significantly less expensive than comparable colourless diamonds, which means you can get more stone for your money without sacrificing quality. The heart-shaped champagne diamond engagement ring is the version turning the most heads right now. The warm colour and the romantic shape together create something that feels completely its own. Lab-Colored Diamond Engagement Rings Natural coloured diamonds are rare. The richer and more vivid the colour, the rarer and more expensive the stone becomes. For most buyers, a natural fancy coloured diamond has simply been out of reach. Lab-grown technology has changed that entirely. Just as colourless lab-grown diamonds have established themselves as a genuine alternative to mined stones, colored lab-grown diamond engagement rings are doing the same in 2026.  You get the vivid pink, yellow, or blue that was previously reserved for the extremely wealthy, at a price point that makes it genuinely accessible. Antique Cut Center Stones Rings Antique cut engagement rings are having a serious moment. The reason is their character. Antique cuts, Old Mine, Old European, and Rose Cut, were crafted by hand, which means each stone is unique. They have a softer, more romantic sparkle than modern brilliant cuts. Less flash. More soul. Celebrities from Elizabeth Taylor to modern buyers with deeply personal taste have embraced antique cuts for exactly this reason. If you want a ring that feels like it has a history, even if it was made yesterday, this is the direction to look. Elongated Diamond Engagement Rings Elongated diamonds are stones stretched beyond their standard proportions. A cushion cut typically sits close to a 1:1 ratio. When that ratio stretches to 1.30:1 or beyond, the stone becomes rectangular, longer, leaner, and more contemporary. Elongated diamonds look larger than their actual carat weight. They make the finger appear longer and slimmer. And in a side stone setting, where the elongated centre stone becomes the clear focal point, they look genuinely stunning. If your taste runs toward sleek and modern, elongated stones are worth serious consideration. Know More: Elongated Cushion Cut Engagement Rings Best Engagement Ring Settings Style The beauty of an engagement ring is not decided by the center stone alone. The way that the stone is set on the ring plays an equally important role. Some settings maximize sparkle, some create a larger appearance, while others focus on security and practicality. These engagement ring settings are dominating the market in 2026 and influencing thousands of new designs.  Fancy Solitaire Engagement Rings The classic solitaire is not going anywhere. But in 2026, buyers want the meaning of a traditional solitaire engagement ring with a little more personality in the design.  Fancy solitaires keep the centre diamond as the clear focal point, one partner, one stone, one commitment, but add a creative detail to the band that makes the ring feel distinctive. The most popular version right now is the twisted band solitaire, where the band gently turns as it meets the centre stone. Asymmetrical but elegant. Personal without being loud. Know More About: How To Buy Solitaire Engagement Rings Double Halo Split Band Engagement Rings Single halo engagement rings add sparkle and make the centre stone appear larger. A double halo does both of those things twice over. In a double halo setting, the centre diamond is surrounded by two rows of smaller diamonds instead of one. The result is exceptional brilliance and a centre stone that appears significantly larger than its actual carat weight. Pair that with a split band, and the ring becomes something genuinely dramatic. This is the setting for someone who wants maximum sparkle, maximum presence, and a ring that reads as a statement from across the room. Know More About: Halo Engagement Rings Cluster Engagement Ring If double halo rings offer extra sparkle, cluster engagement rings offer extraordinary sparkle. In a cluster setting, multiple diamonds are grouped together so closely that in some designs the metal underneath is barely visible. The effect is a ring that looks like it is made entirely of light. Cluster ring requires more careful daily wear than simpler settings, with more stones comes more responsibility to keep them secure. But for a proposal ring, or for someone who treats their jewellery with care, very few settings come close to the visual impact of a well-designed cluster. Heart Diamond Half Bezel Engagement Rings Bezel-set engagement rings have always been popular for their security. The diamond is enclosed in metal, protected from knocks and chips, and incredibly practical for everyday wear. But full bezel settings cover the sides of the stone, which reduces sparkle. The half bezel solves that. In a half bezel setting, metal wraps around part of the diamond while leaving the sides partially exposed. Light can still enter and reflect. The stone still sparkles. And the heart shape adds a layer of meaning that makes this combination one of the most romantic settings available right now. Know More: Bezel-Set Engagement Rings Three Stone Engagement Rings Three-stone engagement rings have always meant something. The three stones represent your past, your present, and your future together, which is why this setting has never really gone out of fashion. What is changing in 2026 is what those three stones look like. Different diamond shapes. Coloured gemstones. Fancy coloured diamonds. Modern three-stone rings are moving away from the traditional matched-diamond look toward combinations that feel personal and deliberate. The meaning stays the same. The ring looks completely different. Know More About: Side Stone Engagement Rings Toi Et Moi Heart Engagement Ring Toi et Moi means "You and Me" in French. Two stones, side by side, represent two people choosing each other. It is one of the most symbolic engagement ring designs in existence.  In 2026, jewellers are taking that symbolism further with heart-shaped Toi et Moi rings, where one or both stones are cut into hearts. The love is not just implied by the design. It is literally written into the shape of the stone. Trending Engagement Ring Design Trends Every few years, engagement ring design moves in a new direction. Sometimes people prefer vintage details, while other times they look for bold and contemporary designs. The current generation of buyers is embracing personality-driven engagement rings that feel unique rather than mass-produced. These design trends are shaping the future of engagement rings. Victorian and Art Deco Engagement Rings Vintage-inspired engagement rings never truly go out of style. Victorian and Art Deco designs are gaining ground again in 2026 because they offer something modern rings often do not: detail, history, and the feeling that the ring was made for someone specific. Intricate milgrain edges, geometric Art Deco patterns, filigree work, and antique diamond cuts all contribute to a ring that feels like it belongs to a different era. For someone whose taste runs toward the romantic and the distinctive, vintage is rarely the wrong answer. Know More: Vintage-Inspired Engagement Rings Know More: Art-Deco Engagement Rings Chunky and Sculptural Engagement Rings The ultra-thin band era is giving way to something bolder. Chunky and sculptural engagement rings feature thicker bands, substantial metalwork, and designs that make a visual statement before you even look at the stone.  They feel significant on the finger. They look expensive in the best possible way. And they signal a shift toward jewellery that is worn with intention rather than delicacy. Curved Band Engagement Rings Straight bands are no longer the only option. Curved bands are gaining popularity because the flowing line adds movement and softness to a ring that a straight band simply cannot achieve. The curve makes the ring feel more organic, more custom, and more like something designed specifically for the person wearing it. Know More: Curved Engagement Bands Wedding Bands as Engagement Rings Instead of a traditional engagement ring, some women are choosing diamond wedding bands as the proposal ring. It is practical. It is comfortable for daily wear.  It is often less expensive. And it carries the same weight of meaning and commitment as any solitaire. For couples who value practicality without sacrificing beauty, this is an elegant solution. East-West Setting Engagement Rings In a traditional setting, an oval or marquise diamond sits vertically on the finger, pointed at both ends, running up and down the hand. In an East-West setting, the stone is rotated 90 degrees so it runs horizontally across the finger instead. The result is immediately modern. Unconventional without being strange. Distinctive without trying too hard. It is one of the most elegant ways to wear a stone you have seen a thousand times and make it look completely fresh. Flower Engagement Rings Nature-inspired jewellery continues to grow, and flower engagement rings are leading that category in 2026. Diamonds or gemstones arranged in floral patterns create a ring that feels feminine, romantic, and connected to something larger than the stone itself. For someone whose personal style reflects a love of nature, a flower ring is rarely something they need to think twice about. Snake-Inspired Engagement Rings Snake jewellery has represented love, eternity, and transformation for centuries. In 2026, snake engagement rings are making a serious comeback. The winding form of the snake creates a dramatic silhouette that feels simultaneously ancient and completely current. For someone who wants a ring with symbolism and edge in equal measure, the snake ring delivers both. Know More: Snake Ring Meaning Trending Metal Trends Yellow gold, white gold, and rose gold will always remain popular, but modern buyers are becoming more experimental with metal colors and finishes. Jewelers are introducing new shades, mixed-metal combinations, and custom finishes that completely change the appearance of an engagement ring. If you want something beyond traditional gold colors, these trends are worth exploring. Colourful Gold Engagement Rings Gold is no longer just yellow, white, and rose. Modern jewellery technology has introduced a range of gold colors that most buyers have never seen in a traditional jewellery store: green gold, black gold, champagne gold, and mixed metal combinations that create something genuinely unique. For buyers who want an engagement ring that looks like nothing else on the market, colourful gold is the most immediate way to achieve it. The stone can stay traditional. The metal does the unexpected work. Know More: Different Types Of Gold Colors Celebrity-Inspired Modern Engagement Ring Trends Celebrity engagement rings have always influenced the jewelry market. When a celebrity gets engaged, millions of people instantly see the ring, and certain styles quickly become more popular. Here are some engagement ring trends currently influenced by celebrity engagements. Lainey Wilson's Engagement Ring Lainey Wilson's engagement ring features a cluster-style design with multiple diamond shapes arranged together. Instead of relying on a single center stone, the ring creates visual impact through a combination of diamonds working together. This ring reflects the growing popularity of cluster engagement rings, floral-inspired designs, and statement-making engagement rings. Trend: Cluster Engagement Rings & Floral Designs Know More: Lainey Wilson Engagement Ring Dua Lipa's Engagement Ring Dua Lipa's engagement ring became one of the most talked-about celebrity rings because it combines several major 2026 trends into one design.

Some couples do not want a ring that exists anywhere else in the world. Not a celebrity's ring. Not a bestseller. Something that belongs entirely to them, with their initials engraved inside the band, their names written where only they will ever read it, a broken heart that only becomes whole when both rings are worn together. Matching sets. Mirror designs. Hidden engravings. First letters pressed into gold. A tiny detail that means nothing to anyone else and everything to the two of you. This is what custom design is actually for. Not complexity. Not extravagance. Personalisation so specific that the ring could not belong to anyone else. Explore: Diagaa's Custom Design Service

Although MGK and Megan had officially broken up a few years ago, they brought us one of the most unusual engagement rings in recent memory, the Megan Fox engagement ring by MGK. MGK told Vogue in his 2022 interview, "Love Is Pain." This was not a lyric from one of his songs; it was a short description of the unusual engagement ring he gave to Megan Fox. Based on this hard-but-true quote, he gave Megan Fox an engagement ring. What he infused in Megan's engagement ring is both love and pain. The ring is in toi et moi style, but not the usual one where two stones are set in proportion. Megan Fox's toi et moi engagement ring is a mechanical marvel, made in a way that when removed, it causes pain. It's MGK's way of saying: do not remove my love, it will hurt you. That is what makes it so interesting. The ring itself is really gorgeous, not a traditional engagement ring. It is the real example of how modern engagement rings are made, carrying a story, carrying beauty, and carrying a message. Let's unfold every chapter about Megan Fox's engagement ring with Machine Gun Kelly. Love Story Began Picture Source: Vogue And Yahoo Megan had just privately separated from her 10-year relationship with her husband Brian, and at that time, MGK and Megan Fox came together for the first time on the set of the crime thriller movie “Midnight in the Switchgrass” in March 2020. Later, MGK admitted on The Drew Barrymore Show that he accepted the movie just because Megan was part of it. On just the second day, Megan invited MGK for lunch, and during their conversation, Megan asked him how he felt. MGK replied that he felt "lost",  and Megan said, "Let's find you." This was the beginning of one of the most intense love stories in Hollywood. Both celebrities are deeply involved in spirituality. Megan recalled MGK as her twin flame, which means one soul split into two bodies. Meanwhile, COVID forced the movie production to stop, and they both went to LA, but stayed in contact. In May 2020, they were spotted by paparazzi and captured together, which sparked rumors of their dating.  Around the same time, Megan's ex-husband also confirmed their divorce. In May 2020, MGK released the music video for “Bloody Valentine” starring Megan. The video was filled with intense, intimate chemistry between the two, and this was the confirmation of their relationship. Eventually, in June 2020, both appeared on the podcast Give Them Lala with Randall. How MGK Proposed Megan Picture Source: Vogue After two years of dating, MGK brought Megan to the place where they first shot the film, under a banyan tree in Puerto Rico, and proposed with a gorgeous and ruthless toi et moi engagement ring, which became one of the most talked-about engagement rings in recent memory. Now, let's zoom in and take a closer look at Megan’s engagement ring. Megan Fox Engagement Ring Decoded  Let's start with something unusual, something most people have never seen before. Most engagement rings, whether worn by ordinary people or celebrities, are round in concept, right? We slide them on and off our fingers. But MGK does things differently. He thinks differently, and he thought about Megan Fox's engagement ring differently, too. That's how he came up with the split and thorn mechanism. Split Mechanism in Megan's Engagement Ring Megan's engagement ring is essentially two independent rings. Both have buried micro magnets hidden inside the base of the shank. The bands of these rings are made of 18K white gold. A normal engagement ring needs to be slid onto the finger, but Megan's engagement ring works differently. The two separate parts come together and become one. The ring features a snap-lock interlocking mechanism. When worn together on the finger, the magnetic fields pull the two bands flush against each other. Both parts feature a pear-shaped gemstone, each representing the birthstone of Megan and MGK: emerald and diamond. When these two parts come together, the gemstones create an obscure heart pattern. Ain't that very interesting? But the interesting part does not end here. There is one more surprise, and it is revealed when the ring is taken off. This part is not about how the ring looks, but about how it is worn. Megan Fox Engagement Ring Thorn Mechanism When we say MGK included thorns in Megan's ring, it does not mean the ring actually has sharp thorns inside it. No one would do that to their loved one, and honestly, no one would accept such a ring. By "thorn," it means a slight sensation. Kelly once said, "Love is pain," and that it would hurt if you tried to remove the ring. But the ring is completely comfortable to wear. The part of the ring that touches the skin, which we call the shank, is flat and smooth, just like any other ring. The real thorn design is on the outside of the metal bands. This outer surface is carved to look like pointy thorns. However, these points are rounded off and are not sharp like needles. Because Megan Fox engagement ring is made of two parts that snap together, the thorn patterns on the bands overlap. As a result, if the ring is pulled off or twisted the wrong way, the overlapping sections can create a slight pinching sensation. It is not actually painful, though. So when MGK says it hurts, it does not really hurt in the way most people imagine. This is an amazing concept that we have never seen before. MGK and designer Stephen Webster deserve appreciation for such a thoughtful design. Just look at how many meanings the ring holds: love, pain, birthstones, two separate pieces coming together as one, and even a subtle pinch when someone tries to remove it. Just amazing. Who Designed Mogan Fox Engagement Ring The Megan Fox engagement ring was designed by British fine jewelry designer Stephen Webster in collaboration with MGK. Webster was the perfect choice for the project, as he is well known for his signature thorn-inspired designs, particularly his iconic Thorn Embrace collection. Details About Birthstones In Megan Fox Engagement Ring The two gemstones sit separately on different shanks and come together when the two parts of the ring snap into place. When joined, the stones create an obscure heart pattern. These gemstones were chosen because they represent the birthstones of MGK and Megan: diamond and emerald. The diamond represents MGK's birthstone, while the emerald represents Megan's. However, there is one detail that makes Megan Fox's engagement ring emerald different from many others: it is a Colombian emerald. What Is Special About the Colombian Birthstone When emerald gemstones form deep within the Earth, they naturally develop internal fractures and tiny surface-reaching fissures. To improve their appearance and clarity, most emeralds are treated with oils or polymers that fill these gaps and make the inclusions less visible. However, the emerald in Megan Fox's engagement ring is untreated, which is one of the reasons it is so special. The second reason is its origin. While emeralds are found in several parts of the world, including Zambia, Brazil, and Ethiopia, Megan's stone is a Colombian emerald. Colombian emeralds are generally valued higher than emeralds from many other sources because of their unique combination of natural factors. The Size of the Diamond And Emerald In Megan’s Engagement Ring We have covered many celebrity engagement rings recently, and one thing we often notice is the lack of confirmed specifications. In most cases, neither the jeweler nor the wearer reveals the exact details, leaving jewelry experts and enthusiasts to estimate the diamond's size, quality, and value. Megan Fox's engagement ring is different. The ring's designer, Stephen Webster, has publicly shared details about the gemstones with major media outlets, making this one of the more transparent celebrity engagement rings in recent years. According to Webster, the diamond weighs 2.9 carats and features a D color grade. A D-color diamond sits at the very top of the diamond color grading scale, making it one of the rarest and most desirable diamond colors available. As for the emerald, Webster has stated that it is an untreated Colombian emerald weighing between 3 and 5 carats. The combination of a high-quality D-color diamond and a rare, untreated Colombian emerald makes the ring exceptional not only for its symbolism and design but also for the quality of its gemstones. The Cost Of Megan Fox Engagement Ring Although the size and quality of the emerald and diamond in Megan Fox's engagement ring have been disclosed by the jeweler, the aspect we all crave to know has not, the price. The price of Megan Fox engagement ring has not been disclosed by anyone. So, as usual, we have to rely on expert commentary for the pricing aspect. Disclaimer: Unlike the gemstone specifications, which were confirmed by Stephen Webster himself, the ring's value remains a matter of estimation. Experts can analyze the quality of the diamond, the untreated Colombian emerald, and the custom craftsmanship involved, but without an official statement, any price attached to the ring remains an educated guess. Estimated Price Of Megan Fox's Engagement Ring By Experts Based on the specifications disclosed by Stephen Webster, the diamond in Fox's engagement ring weighs 2.9 carats and carries a D color grade. The emerald is an untreated Colombian emerald estimated to weigh between 3 and 5 carats. As seen in the available photographs, experts at Diagaa estimate that the diamond is likely in the VVS clarity range with an excellent cut. Based on these characteristics, the diamond alone could be worth around $50,000, while a high-quality, untreated Colombian emerald of this size could easily be valued at $40,000 or more. However, gemstones are only part of the equation. The ring also features a highly customized magnetic split-band design created by Stephen Webster, making it a one-of-a-kind piece. Taking the gemstones, craftsmanship, brand value, and custom engineering into account, we estimate the total value of Megan Fox engagement ring to be between $200,000 and $250,000. That said, different experts have their own opinions. Jewelry designer Mark Broumand estimated the ring's value at around $300,000, noting that the pear-shaped diamond and emerald appear to be top-quality gemstones. Kathryn Money, Senior Vice President at Brilliant Earth, estimated the ring's value at $300,000 to $400,000. Diamond expert Bill Kung, owner of Ultimate Diamond, estimated the ring to be worth approximately $350,000. So while our estimate places the ring in the $200,000 to $250,000 range, most industry experts value Megan Fox's engagement ring closer to $300,000 to $400,000. Additional Feature Of Megan Fox Engagement Ring Apart from the split-band mechanism, thorn design, and Toi et Moi style, Megan Fox engagement ring features several other details that make it highly decorative and custom-looking. Number One: Hidden Halo Setting Megan's ring features a hidden halo setting. A hidden halo consists of small diamonds set underneath the main gemstone, making them visible only from the side view. In Megan's ring, small diamonds are placed beneath both the diamond and emerald gemstones. This additional detail gives the ring extra sparkle while making it look more custom-designed and luxurious. Number Two: Heart-Shaped Prongs The ring also features four heart-shaped prongs. In most engagement rings, prongs are simple, rounded metal tips designed only to secure the gemstone. Megan's ring takes a more decorative approach, with heart-shaped prongs adding another layer of symbolism and customization to the design. Number Three: Ethical Single-Mine Origin Gold Finally, the ring is crafted from 18-karat single-mine origin white gold. What makes this gold special is its source. According to Stephen Webster, the gold was mined from the Yanfolila Mine in Mali, Africa. The mine operates with a transparent supply chain, allowing the origin of the gold to be traced. The project also supports local communities through various initiatives, including access to clean water, reforestation efforts involving thousands of trees, and fair-wage employment opportunities for local women. In that sense, Megan Fox's engagement ring is not unique in design but also carries an ethical and sustainability-focused element behind its creation. Social And Cultural Impact Of Fox’s Engagement Ring Now we have talked about almost everything related to Megan Fox engagement ring from MGK. It is unusual, expensive, decorative, ethical, meaningful, and thoughtful. But did it have any impact on society and culture? Yes, it did. When MGK announced the engagement on Instagram, the post received more than 12 million likes. Just imagine the scale. More than 12 million people engaged with the announcement on Instagram alone, not counting the millions who saw the ring through news outlets, YouTube videos, TikTok clips, and countless online discussions. With that level of attention came debate. One segment of people admired the ring's magnetic split-band mechanism and symbolic design. Another segment criticized MGK's statement that "love is pain" and his description of the thorn design, interpreting it as a ring that intentionally hurts the wearer if she tries to remove it. The controversy became large enough that Stephen Webster later clarified that the thorn elements were completely safe for everyday wear and were never intended to cause actual harm. The fox’s ring also gained traction on TikTok, where users attempted to recreate its mechanical joining concept. The hashtag #ThornRingChallenge reportedly crossed millions of views, helping fuel interest in custom-designed and story-driven engagement rings. Beyond social media, the ring also influenced jewelry conversations. Shelley Brown of The Knot referenced Megan Fox's engagement ring as an example of a growing shift toward non-traditional center stones, personalized symbolism, and narrative-driven customization in engagement jewelry. In many ways, Megan Fox engagement ring became more than just a celebrity engagement ring. It became a conversation piece that encouraged people to think beyond traditional designs and view engagement rings as a way to tell a personal story. Where Is Megan Fox Engagement Ring From Brian Austin Green Before MGK's unusual magnetic engagement ring entered the picture, Megan Fox had a very different engagement ring from her former husband, Brian Austin Green. And honestly, it was about as traditional as an engagement ring can get. Back in 2010, Brian proposed to Megan during a trip to Hawaii with a beautiful 2-carat diamond ring. But shortly after the proposal, something unexpected happened. According to reports, Megan accidentally dropped the ring on the beach, and despite searching for it, the ring was never found. It was swallowed by the sand and ocean. As a result, Brian had to replace it before their wedding. The replacement ring followed a much more classic Hollywood design. It featured a large cushion-cut center diamond surrounded by a double diamond halo. The platinum band was also covered with pavé diamonds, giving the ring plenty of sparkle from every angle. Unlike the highly symbolic and mechanical design MGK later commissioned, Brian Austin Green's ring focused on traditional luxury. The ring was reportedly valued at around $80,000 and reflected the engagement ring trends that were popular at the time. End Of The Story Unfortunately, the love story behind the ring did not last forever. After years of an on-and-off relationship, Megan Fox and MGK eventually ended their engagement. However, the ring's story did not end with the breakup. According to reports, Megan Fox still keeps the ring. While the relationship may have come to an end, the ring remains one of the most unique celebrity engagement rings ever created, a piece remembered not just for its value, but for its symbolism, craftsmanship, and the meaning it was designed to tell. The twin flame may be gone, but the ring's flame is still intact.

In our famous engagement ring guide series, we are taking a look at journalists, too. Previously, we explored Ainsley Earhardt and Emily Campagno's engagement rings, two well-known names across the American media industry. Today, it's time for another name on the list, Kaitlan Collins, the host of CNN's prime-time show The Source with Kaitlan Collins. She also serves as the network's Chief White House Correspondent. Let's find out what Kaitlan Collins engagement ring will look like and draw inspiration from it to create one for yourself. Before We Start As of now, it remains unclear whether Kaitlan Collins is currently in a relationship, as she tends to keep her private life out of the public eye. We even analyzed her Instagram profile, but could not find any sign of an engagement ring on her finger. However, there were numerous rumors about a relationship between Kaitlan Collins and businessman and politician Will Douglas around 2015. The two even shared photos on social media during that time. However, between 2021 and 2024, they appeared together far less frequently, leading to speculation that their relationship may have ended. With that being said, we cannot confirm the existence of a Kaitlan Collins engagement ring. In this guide, we will explore the details surrounding the most speculated engagement ring style for the CNN anchor. Based on her personal style, fashion preferences, and the rings she's been seen wearing, we'll create a picture of the engagement ring she might choose in the future. What Might Kaitlan Collins' Engagement Ring Look Like?  Kaitlan Collins appears on television almost every day, which gives viewers plenty of opportunities to observe her personal style. As the host of a major news program, she frequently gestures with her hands while speaking and is often seen holding a microphone in her left hand during reporting assignments. Because of this, the rings she wears are sometimes visible on camera. Over the years, there has been one particular ring that Collins has been seen wearing repeatedly while anchoring. In addition, some of her Instagram photos show her wearing a different ring on her pinky finger when she is away from work. While neither of these pieces appears to be an engagement ring, they can offer clues about her jewelry preferences. These two rings serve as the basis for our analysis of what kind of engagement ring Kaitlan Collins might choose if she were to get engaged in the future. By looking at her existing jewelry choices, we can get a better idea of the styles, designs, and overall aesthetic that seem to match her personality and fashion sense. Kaitlan Collins Engagement Ring: The Ring Kaitlan Collins Wears On Air  Kaitlan seems to wear one ring on her middle finger almost all the time. From the ring, its overall aesthetic appears quite vintage. It features a delicate, thin band with a light yellow tone, which could be 14K yellow gold. However, the most eye-catching element of the ring is the arrangement of the stones and the type of stones used in the design. From the available blurry images, it appears that the ring may feature a marquise-cut diamond set vertically in a prong setting. The stone seems to span a good portion of her middle finger, which is quite an interesting design choice. Marquise-cut diamonds are particularly well-suited to longer, slender fingers because of their elongated shape. Based on the finger coverage, the center stone could be somewhere around 3 to 4 carats. However, we can't say anything with certainty without clearer images. The same goes for the diamond's quality.  From the limited visuals available, the stone appears to have a slightly warm tone, which could place it in the I–J color range, while the clarity appears to be around VS. That said, these are only rough observations based on the images and should not be taken as exact specifications. Based on all these observations, Kaitlan Collins' ring appears to be a marquise-cut stone set in a prong setting on what looks like a 14K yellow gold band. Overall, it is a beautiful choice. The vintage-inspired design complements her professional image and the polished attire she is often seen wearing on television. Of course, we cannot say with certainty that this would be her future engagement ring style. However, based on the jewelry she wears most frequently, it would not be surprising if she gravitated toward a similar design in the future. The marquise cut offers an elegant, timeless look while still feeling distinctive and sophisticated. If you're also drawn to the marquise cut for its elongated effect, finger-flattering shape, and vintage charm, be sure to check out our Marquise Cut Diamond Engagement Ring Collection.

Based on visual observation, the ring appears to feature a cushion cut or elongated cushion cut diamond, the same style of diamond that Taylor Swift and Zendaya have also been seen wearing, as we discussed in the earlier guide. This ring also looks like a vintage-inspired design, although it is less elaborate than the one she wears on her middle finger. On closer inspection, the stone appears to be set in a bezel setting, and there is a single stone, which suggests it is a solitaire design. The ring also seems to be made of 14k yellow gold. The stone covers almost the entire horizontal width of her finger, so it is likely around 3–4 carats. Overall, this ring appears to be a bezel-set solitaire design with a colorless diamond, a classic, long-lasting engagement ring choice that suits her profile and is ideal for everyday wear. Check Out: Bezel Set Engagement Ring Collection Read: Bezel Set Engagement Ring Guide Why Kaylin Collins Wearing Ring On Middle Finger Apart from styling, the finger on which you wear a ring can hold a strong traditional meaning. If you want to learn about the significance of wearing a ring on each finger, we have a detailed guide on that as well. As far as wearing a ring on the middle finger is concerned, it is often associated with individuality, confidence, and personal achievements. The wearer may use it to express a sense of self, independence, or an important milestone in their life.  Perhaps Kaitlin has achieved so much in her professional career that the ring reflects her confidence, accomplishments, and individuality. However, this is only an interpretation, as the true meaning behind her choice is known only to her. What Might Kaitlan Collins Engagement Ring Be We did analyze both of the rings she wears on an everyday basis. This gives us a hint about what she likes the most, and they appear to be practical choices that suit her profession and the attire she wears, such as blazers and professional outfits. Based on this, we anticipate that Kaitlin Collins’ engagement ring will be a solitaire engagement ring. We cannot assume what shape of stone she will choose, but these two rings suggest she will probably go for a vintage-inspired stone shape, such as oval, marquise, or cushion. As of now, her ring finger is free, so let’s see if her middle finger and pinky finger rings find partners in the future. We are eager to see the confirmed Kaitlin Collins engagement ring.

Do you wonder why people are so crazy about a ring inspired by one of the most terrifying creatures in the world? Oh, sorry, it is not just the most terrifying; it is beautiful and a miracle at the same time.  Yes, the snake was there before the snake ring even arrived, and it had already claimed its place among the most godly symbols in the mythologies of the world. And eventually, it offered the inspiration for the most spectacular jewelry pieces ever created.  Let's find out the snake ring meaning, and let's understand why the terrifying creature is creating such terrific rings. The Earliest Snake Ring Meaning Lives in Ancient Egypt The earliest signs of the snake ring are found in Egyptian civilization, where the snake represented eternity, royalty, and divine power. The Uraeus: The Sacred Snake Symbol of the Pharaohs Egyptian Pharaohs wore the Uraeus, the symbol of the stylized cobra, on their crowns. For Egyptians, the snake was the symbol of protection, strength, and divine authority. The Ouroboros: Where the Snake Ring Symbolism Truly Begins Apart from the Pharaohs, there was another powerful snake symbol in ancient Egypt, the Ouroboros, the snake eating its own tail. It represents eternity and endless return, light after darkness, good after bad, and life after death. This is the circle with no beginning and no end, and it is the symbol that would go on to define the deepest meaning of the snake ring for thousands of years. Cleopatra: The First Icon of Snake Jewelry Cleopatra was perhaps the first, and certainly the most notable, historical figure to wear snake jewelry. And from this legacy, the most iconic modern jewelry brands, like Bulgari, created their legendary Serpenti collection Ancient Greece and Rome: The Snake Ring Becomes a Symbol of Healing and Eternal Love The Snake Ring in Greece: A Symbol of Healing and Rebirth In ancient Greece, the snake was a symbol of healing and rebirth. In the Greek era, snake rings were worn to pay tribute to Asclepius, the god of medicine, whose staff, wrapped with a serpent, remains one of the most recognised symbols in the world even today. For the Greeks, the snake ring carried the meaning of renewal, the ability to shed what is old and begin again. The Roman Snake Ring: A Promise of Eternal Love The Romans gave the snake ring its most personal meaning. Where the Greeks saw healing, the Romans saw love. In the Roman era, lovers used to exchange snake rings as tokens of eternal commitment, because the endless coiling form of the snake represented a bond with no beginning and no end. What the Snake Ring Means Across the Cultures of the World The snake ring is not the symbol of one civilization. It belongs to almost every major culture on earth, and each one gives it its own meaning. Hinduism: The Divine Serpent In Hindu tradition, the snake is a divinity that represents eternity, life and death, creation and destruction. Wearing a snake ring carries the meaning of spiritual energy, cosmic balance, and the journey toward higher wisdom. The Aztec and Mayan Snake Ring Meaning: Knowledge and Protection The Mayans and Aztecs used to worship snake gods who represented knowledge and protection.  Chinese Culture: Wisdom, Prosperity, and the Zodiac In Chinese culture, the snake is a symbol of wisdom, strength, and prosperity, significant enough to hold one of the twelve spots in the Chinese zodiac. A snake ring here means good fortune and quiet intelligence. Norse and Viking Tradition: Transformation In Viking tradition, the serpent was a symbol of rebirth and transformation. Wearing a snake ring meant carrying the reminder that growth always demands leaving something old behind. Christianity: The Forbidden Edge of the Snake Ring In the Judeo-Christian tradition, the serpent is linked to temptation, cunning, and forbidden knowledge. And yet, this dark meaning gave the snake ring its edge. For centuries, wearing one carried a whisper of the bold and the transgressive, and that tension between the sacred and the sinful is a large part of why the snake ring has never gone out of style. The Victorian Era: The Moment the Snake Ring Meaning Became About Love Queen Victoria's Snake Engagement Ring In 1839, Prince Albert proposed to Queen Victoria with a gold snake ring, an emerald at its head, set with ruby eyes. In that single gesture, the snake ring transformed completely. What had been ancient and mythological became intimate and romantic. The snake was no longer just a symbol of eternity in the abstract; it was a symbol of their love and their unbreakable bond. The world followed. Lovers began exchanging coiled serpent rings engraved with initials, set with birthstones, and inscribed with secret words. The Ouroboros, the snake biting its own tail, became the ultimate symbol of eternal love and devotion. The Victorian snake ring also carried wisdom, mysticism, and a deep connection to the natural world, making it one of the most layered and meaningful pieces of jewelry the era ever produced. Art Nouveau and Art Deco: The Snake Ring Reinvented Art Nouveau: A Return to Nature In the late 1800s and early 1900s, the snake ring became a symbol of the natural world, wild, organic, and alive. Rings of this era did not just wrap the finger; they seemed to live around it. Art Deco: Ancient Meaning, Modern Glamour The 1920s excavation of Tutankhamun's tomb brought Egyptian symbolism roaring back. The Art Deco snake ring carried the meanings of the Uraeus and the Ouroboros once more, this time wrapped in boldness, geometry, and glamour. The Modern Snake Ring Meaning: What It Stands for Today In 1948, Bulgari launched its legendary Serpenti collection, drawing directly from Cleopatra's serpent jewelry. When Elizabeth Taylor wore a Bulgari Serpenti watch on the set of Cleopatra in 1962, it brought the ancient meaning of the snake ring, power, seduction, and transformation, fully into the modern world. Today, the snake ring means something different to everyone who wears it, and that is exactly the point. For some, it is a declaration of eternal love, echoing the Roman gift and the Victorian engagement. For others, it is a symbol of personal transformation, a reminder that shedding old skin is not loss but growth. For others still, it is wisdom, protection, or quiet power. The snake does not ask what you mean by it. It simply wraps around your finger and carries every meaning it has ever held, five thousand years of mythology, royalty, love, and transformation, right there on your hand. The Snake Ring Meaning, in the End, Is About Life Itself From the Pharaohs of Egypt to the finger of Queen Victoria, the snake ring has never truly changed. It has always meant the same thing at its core: that life is not a straight line. It coils, it renews, it circles back. It ends and begins again. That is what makes the snake ring unlike any other piece of jewelry in the world. It does not just sit on your finger. It means something. And whatever it means to you is exactly right.

Miley Cyrus engagement ring has a cushion-cut diamond. In my celebrity engagement ring series, I have already taken you on tours of many famous engagement rings from Hollywood celebrities. But my hunger to watch more celebrity rings and bring you information about them, so you can recreate the same design, will never die. And that hunger has brought us today to Miley Cyrus engagement ring. It's the latest. It's trending and dazzling, and most importantly, very easy to recreate at an affordable price. Let's put our focus on Miley's ring. Who Is The Lucky Guy? The Hannah Montana star has certainly had a complicated journey when it comes to love. Since her split from ex-husband Liam Hemsworth in 2019, Miley has kept fans guessing about her love life.  Shortly after the divorce, she surprised everyone with a brief romance with her close friend Kaitlynn Carter. Although that relationship did not last long, Miley soon found love again with Australian musician Cody Simpson, who had previously dated Gigi Hadid for two years. However, the couple eventually announced their breakup in 2020. Later, Miley found lasting happiness with her current fiancé, Maxx Morando, a drummer from the rock band Liily.  Miley Cyrus Engagement Ring Revealed Source: Getty Images Morando and Miley never really publicized their relationship much. Although they were first linked back in late 2021 after being spotted together at Gucci's Love Parade fashion show, the couple mostly stayed away from the spotlight.  Over the next few years, fans saw them together at a few major events, including the Grammys and the Oscars, and Miley occasionally spoke about the relationship in interviews, but they largely kept things private. That made the world premiere of Avatar: Fire and Ash in December 2025 feel even more significant. The whole of Hollywood was there, and how could Miley miss it? She was there too with Morando, wearing a black strapless Gucci Spring gown with a silver Messika necklace around her neck. What turned the cameras toward her was her hand on Morando's chest, as if deliberately posing. The ring she was wearing looked like she was declaring something, and we jewelry lovers got one more engagement ring to talk about. A Miley Cyrus engagement ring with a cushion-cut diamond. The media got enough angles of Miley's engagement ring, and jewelry lovers and experts did not take long to put their 10x scope on it. Interestingly, engagement rumors had already started circulating a few weeks earlier when fans noticed a diamond ring on Miley's left hand. But it was at the Avatar: Fire and Ash premiere that the world got its clearest look at the ring, and shortly afterward, reports confirmed that Miley Cyrus and Maxx Morando were officially engaged. So, what I am going to tell you is what is clearly visible in her ring and what is still not confirmed. For the details that remain uncertain, we will look at expert commentary and opinions. How Miley Cyrus Got Her Engagement Ring From Morando It is said that Miley had kept one place left to visit for her future, that is, Japan. Eventually, she and Morando flew to Japan, as she later confirmed on Good Morning America, where Morando got down on one knee and surprised Miley with a proposal. She said, "I am not easy to surprise because I love to control every situation. And I had completely surrendered," according to ABC News. And that is when she received her engagement ring from Morando - in fact, her second engagement ring after Liam. Miley Cyrus Engagement Ring From Morando: Through My Vision After zooming in on several photos of her engagement ring taken by different photographers, I can confirm a few things. And it's not just me; many other sources have also confirmed a few details about Miley Cyrus engagement ring. The first and most obvious detail is the diamond shape. Miley Cyrus's engagement ring features an elongated cushion-cut diamond. In fact, I wonder how popular elongated cushion-cut diamonds have become in recent years. Taylor Swift got one, Zendaya and Selena also received cushion-cut diamond engagement rings, and now Miley has joined the list. There is no confirmed reason behind this wave of choosing cushion-cut diamond engagement rings. I would say it is because of their vintage feel and their suitability for the statement jewelry that celebrities love. Another visible detail I noticed in Miley's ring is the metal color and setting. The ring has a light yellow band, which appears to be 14K yellow gold. The cushion-cut diamond is sitting horizontally in a bezel setting, which we call an east-west setting. Like cushion-cut diamonds, this setting has also become very popular among celebrities in recent years. Traditionally, a diamond in a bezel set engagement ring is placed vertically. In an east-west setting, however, the stone is set horizontally, creating a more distinctive and vintage-inspired look. When you look at Miley Cyrus's Instagram posts to observe her jewelry choices, you will notice many statement pieces with chunky designs and colorful aesthetics that feel very retro. To bring that same sense of chunkiness into Miley's engagement ring, Morando appears to have chosen the perfect jeweler. Miley Cyrus's engagement ring is from celebrity jeweler Jacquie Aiche. Known for creating distinctive, bohemian-inspired fine jewelry, Aiche crafted a custom engagement ring that perfectly reflects Miley's bold and unconventional style. So, these are the details we can confidently confirm about Miley Cyrus engagement ring. But to learn more about the ring's other important specifications, I looked at what industry experts and jewelry designers think about it. What Do Jewelry Experts Say About Miley Cyrus Engagement Ring? Experts are praising the design of Miley Cyrus's engagement ring. However, when it comes to the cost, experts have different opinions. I would like to say that while many jewelry experts have estimated the value of the ring just by looking at photos, those estimates are still not completely accurate. To determine the actual price of a diamond, one needs to examine it closely with professional tools and evaluate its 4Cs: carat, cut, color, and clarity. Without seeing the diamond in person, any valuation remains an educated guess. Still, these expert estimates give us a rough idea of what the elongated cushion-cut diamond in Miley Cyrus's engagement ring could be worth. So, here are some expert opinions on the estimated value of Miley Cyrus engagement ring. Most experts believe the ring features a 4 to 5-carat cushion-cut diamond set in a chunky 14K yellow gold east-west bezel setting. Based on these observations, estimates vary widely. Daniela Tarantino, Vice President of Merchandising at Blue Nile, estimated that the ring could be worth between $300,000 and $450,000. According to her analysis, the center stone appears to be a 4 to 5-carat modified cushion-cut diamond. Other experts have offered more conservative estimates. Former Antiques Roadshow appraiser Reyne Hirsch suggested a retail value of approximately $150,000 to $250,000, depending on the diamond's color, clarity, and overall quality. Meanwhile, some jewelers believe the ring could be worth considerably less if the center stone is lab-grown rather than natural. Because neither Miley Cyrus nor designer Jacquie Aiche has revealed the diamond's specifications, the true value remains unknown. To Wrap In One Sentence So, based on all the available details and expert opinions, Miley Cyrus's engagement ring from Maxx Morando appears to be a chunky, elongated cushion-cut diamond set horizontally in a bezel setting and crafted in 14K yellow gold. Experts estimate the ring could be worth as much as $450,000. What does Miley Cyrus Engagement Ring Mean Miley Cyrus engagement ring, according to me, is a new chapter unfolding in the world of glamour while still taking inspiration from the past. The ring seems deliberately designed to match Miley's retro-inspired style. These days, celebrities are very fond of vintage-inspired engagement rings, and an elongated cushion-cut diamond is one of the best choices for achieving that look. Its longer shape and rounded corners make it feel as though it belongs to the Art Deco era, especially when paired with a less traditional east-west setting. The overall design also leans strongly toward the statement-jewelry trend. Recently, Dua Lipa was seen with a similarly bold engagement ring, and now Miley has joined the movement. Rather than focusing solely on a massive diamond, both rings use distinctive settings and proportions to create a strong visual impact. So, if you are looking for a vintage-inspired engagement ring that feels like a statement piece yet remains practical enough for everyday wear, Miley Cyrus engagement ring is definitely a style worth gravitating toward. Miley Cyrus First Engagement Ring From Liam Source: Hollywood report We have admired the latest Miley Cyrus engagement ring, but we should not forget that her first engagement ring also made headlines at the time. Although it has been more than 10 years, there is still plenty of information available about the ring she received from Liam Hemsworth. Let me tell you that the engagement ring was much more classic and vintage than the one she wears today. Miley's engagement ring from Liam was also vintage-inspired. It featured a 3.5-carat antique cushion-cut diamond from Neil Lane, set in 18-karat yellow gold. The ring itself was believed to date back to the 1880s or 1890s, making it a truly vintage piece. To make it even more attractive, Liam chose a design with small diamonds set along the band. The ring was inspired by the Art Nouveau style, a jewelry movement known for its nature-inspired designs and intricate details. Interestingly, Miley later revealed on The Ellen DeGeneres Show that while the ring did not really match her quirky and colorful personal style, she wore it because Liam loved it and had chosen it for her. The ring was estimated to be worth around $250,000 at the time.

Picking the wrong jewelry for an occasion is like showing up in the wrong outfit; you can wear the most perfect, most attractive attire, but without the right jewelry, it is like an ocean without fish. By suitable, I don't just mean matching. I mean jewelry that highlights the occasion. That illuminates the moment in its own language. The jewelry ideas I am going to give you today are that language, a different kind of language, written in gold and gemstones and glitter, that speaks the right words for the occasion on your behalf. Interesting, right? I hope you are already thrilled, because in just a few minutes, you are going to discover 50+ meaningful jewelry ideas for 50+ occasions we Americans face throughout our lives. From graduations to anniversaries, from first jobs to fresh starts, from faith milestones to the moments we celebrate just for ourselves. Are you ready to explore the language of jewelry? Let's begin. Jewelries For Academic Milestone When I think about academic milestones, I see them as more than just certificates or diplomas. They represent years of hard work, late-night study sessions, determination, and personal sacrifice. That's why I believe the jewelry given to celebrate these achievements should feel like a meaningful reward, something that lasts far beyond graduation day. I like choosing pieces that can move with the recipient into the next stage of life, whether that's college, a new job, or a professional career. The best graduation jewelry, in my opinion, is both timeless and personal: polished enough to wear in professional settings, yet meaningful enough to remind them of everything they worked so hard to achieve. Occasion Jewelry Gift Why It Works Kindergarten Graduation Tiny Pearl Stud Earring Safe, age-appropriate, and durable enough for everyday wear. Middle School Graduation Dainty Initial Necklace Personal, meaningful, and suitable for daily wear through the teenage years. High School Graduation Gold Pendant Necklace A versatile piece that works for college, internships, and special occasions. College/University Graduation Tennis Bracelet Timeless and professional, making it a great transition piece from campus to career. Graduate School (MBA, PhD, JD, MD) Diamond Stud Earrings A classic investment piece that complements both professional and formal settings. Sorority/Fraternity Initiation Greek Letter Charm Bracelet A meaningful keepsake that represents chapter membership and lifelong connections. Sports Scholarship Gold Chain Necklace A bold and confident piece that reflects dedication, hard work, and success. Jewelries For Love & Relationships Jewelry is one of the most powerful ways we express love. Few gifts can capture emotion, commitment, and cherished memories as beautifully as a meaningful piece of jewelry. Whether it's a Valentine's Day surprise, a promise ring that symbolizes a growing relationship, an engagement ring marking a lifelong commitment, or an anniversary gift celebrating years together, jewelry has long been woven into life's most important romantic milestones. When I think about jewelry for these occasions, I believe the best pieces do more than look beautiful. The key is choosing jewelry that reflects the significance of the moment and the depth of the relationship. A promise ring carries a different meaning than an engagement ring, just as a first Valentine's gift holds a different sentiment than a 25th-anniversary diamond band. With that in mind, here are my genuine jewelry suggestions for celebrating love at every stage of your relationship.   Occasion Jewelry Reason Valentine's Day Heart pendant necklace Universally romantic and wearable well beyond the holiday Promise ring Simple solitaire band Signals commitment without the formality of an engagement ring Engagement Diamond solitaire ring The most universally recognized symbol of a marriage proposal Bridal shower Personalized name bracelet A practical keepsake she can wear on the wedding day and after Bachelorette party Layered gold necklace set Fun, stylish, and photogenic for the celebration Wedding day Drop earrings with Pearl Bridal classic that photographs beautifully Anniversary (1st) Gold vermeil bracelet Marks the first year without overcommitting on investment Anniversary (10th) Diamond eternity band Diamond is the traditional 10th anniversary gemstone Anniversary (25th) Silver and diamond pendant Silver is the traditional material for 25 years Anniversary (50th) Gold and diamond statement ring Gold symbolizes 50 years — a true heirloom-worthy piece Vow renewal Custom-engraved band Reinscribing the commitment with a personal message adds depth Divorce party Cocktail ring A statement piece that signals independence and a new identity Galentine's Day Friendship charm bracelet Celebrates female friendship in a fun, low-pressure way Jewelries For Family & Parenting  After celebrating the love we share with a partner, many of us are fortunate enough to experience another kind of love entirely, one wrapped in tiny fingers, sleepless nights, and the bright sparkle of a child. In my experience, becoming a parent is one of life's most profound and emotional milestones, bringing a depth of love that's difficult to put into words. That's why I believe jewelry created for family and parenting moments should be deeply personal. Whether it's a gift for a new mother, a push present, a Mother's Day keepsake, or a piece celebrating the birth of a child, the most meaningful designs tell a story. I especially love jewelry that incorporates birthstones, initials, children's names, or meaningful dates engraved into the piece. Occasion Jewelry Reason Baby shower Birthstone pendant necklace Can be made ahead with the due date month stone Gender reveal party Blue or pink gemstone bracelet Playful way to commemorate the moment with color Birth of a child Mother's ring with a birthstone Permanently commemorates the child's birth month Adoption celebration Family knot pendant Symbolizes the new bond formed, regardless of biology Mother's Day Multi-stone birthstone bracelet Each stone represents a child, deeply personal and practical Father's Day Signet rings Classic masculine piece  Grandparents Day Locket with grandchild's photo A functional keepsake they can carry close every day Becoming a grandparent Gold charm bracelet Can add a charm for each grandchild over time Jewelries For Birthdays Birthdays are among the most popular occasions for giving jewelry, and I can understand why. A birthday isn't just a celebration of getting one year older; it's a celebration of growth, new experiences, fresh opportunities, and the wisdom we gain along the way. Every birthday marks the beginning of another chapter, one that we'll navigate with a little more maturity, confidence, and life experience than before. When choosing birthday jewelry, I believe the best gifts strike a balance between personal and practical. They should feel meaningful enough to show thought and effort, yet versatile enough to become part of someone's everyday life. Pieces that are too trendy can quickly lose their appeal, while overly generic gifts may not feel special at all. That's why I often recommend birthstone jewelry for birthdays. A birthstone creates an immediate personal connection, tying the piece directly to the person and their unique story. Whether it's a necklace, ring, bracelet, or pair of earrings, birthstone jewelry feels both timeless and deeply personal, exactly the kind of gift that can be treasured long after the birthday candles have been blown out. Occasion Jewelry Reason Sweet 16 Birthstone ring Age-appropriate, personal, and a true coming-of-age keepsake 18th birthday Gold hoop earrings A grown-up everyday staple they'll wear for years 21st birthday Diamond or gemstone pendant Marks the transition to full adulthood with a lasting piece 30th birthday Stackable ring set Symbolizes layers of life experience entering a new decade 40th birthday Gold statement earrings Bold and confident, matching where most women are at 40 50th birthday Pearl strand necklace Classic, elegant, and traditionally associated with maturity 60th birthday Sapphire pendant Rich, refined stone that suits a woman who knows her style 70th birthday Diamond cluster ring A luxurious heirloom piece worthy of seven decades Religious & Faith-Based Jewelleries Faith has always felt deeply personal to me. While religious milestones may be celebrated on a specific day, their meaning extends far beyond the ceremony itself. Whether it's a baptism, first communion, confirmation, bar or bat mitzvah, or another sacred occasion, these moments often shape our spiritual journey and remain with us throughout life. I believe jewelry given for faith-based occasions should reflect that lasting significance. To me, the most meaningful pieces are those that serve as daily reminders of faith, guidance, and spiritual connection. I've always loved the idea that God lives in our hearts, and in a way, we live in God's heart as well. That connection makes religious jewelry more than an accessory; it becomes a symbol of belief, comfort, and devotion. When choosing jewelry for these occasions, I prefer timeless designs over passing trends. Cross necklaces, saint medals, Star of David pendants, engraved scripture bracelets, and other meaningful symbols carry a sense of permanence that never goes out of style. Occasion Jewelry Reason Christmas Gold cross pendant Faith-aligned, universally appreciated by Christian families Easter White pearl earrings Symbolizes new life and purity, classic Easter imagery First Communion Delicate cross bracelet A traditional gift that marks a spiritual milestone modestly Confirmation Saint medal necklace Directly tied to the confirmed patron saint, deeply personal Baptism/Christening Sterling silver baby bracelet Safe for infants and a lasting memento of the occasion Bar/Bat Mitzvah Star of David pendant Culturally meaningful and worn with pride into adulthood Hanukkah Menorah charm bracelet Festive, symbolic, and builds meaning as charms are added Kwanzaa African-inspired gold bangle Celebrates cultural heritage with an authentic aesthetic Holiday Jewelries If I'm being honest, I don't view most American holidays as carrying the same symbolic weight as an engagement, wedding anniversary, graduation, or the birth of a child. Those milestones mark major life transitions and often deserve jewelry that becomes part of a person's story for decades. That doesn't mean I don't love holidays, I absolutely do. In fact, I think holidays give us some of the most enjoyable opportunities to surprise the people we care about. The difference is that the jewelry given for these occasions is usually less about commemorating a life-changing moment and more about celebrating the season, sharing joy, and creating happy memories together. Whether it's Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Christmas, or the Fourth of July, I tend to gravitate toward pieces that feel festive, stylish, and easy to wear. Colorful gemstones, themed charms, patriotic accents, and affordable luxury pieces often make perfect holiday gifts because they capture the spirit of the occasion without the expectation of carrying profound lifelong symbolism. To me, holiday jewelry is about making someone smile in the moment while still giving them something beautiful they'll enjoy wearing long after the celebration ends. Occasion Jewelry Reason New Year's Eve Crystal drop earrings Glamorous and sparkly - perfect for countdown celebrations Super Bowl Sunday Team color enamel bracelet Represents fan loyalty in a wearable, fashionable way St. Patrick's Day Green gemstone pendant Seasonal, festive, and directly tied to the holiday symbol Fourth of July Red, white, and blue gemstone bracelet Patriotic color palette makes it instantly occasion-appropriate Halloween Black diamond ring Dark, dramatic stone that fits the season without being costumey Thanksgiving Amber or topaz pendant Warm autumn tones match the season's colors and mood Jewelries For Career And Achievement I believe the best jewelry for career milestones is something you can actually wear to work every day. Simple watches, diamond studs, elegant bracelets, classic rings, and understated necklaces are all great choices because they celebrate success while still fitting naturally into a professional wardrobe. To me, career jewelry isn't about showing off. It's a personal reminder of the hard work, dedication, and effort that went into reaching that achievement. Every time you wear it, you're reminded of how far you've come and what you've accomplished. Occasion Jewelry Reason First job/internship Delicate gold chain bracelet Subtle, professional, and appropriate for any workplace Job promotion Pearl stud earrings Boardroom-ready classic that matches the step up in status Retirement Custom-engraved bangle A permanent record of years served, personal and meaningful Work anniversary (10 years) Diamond accent pendant Marks a decade of loyalty with an appropriately elevated piece Business launch Bold gold cuff bracelet Strong, confident piece that matches entrepreneurial energy Military homecoming Dog tag necklace Emotionally resonant and directly tied to military identity Military promotion Service medal charm Functional commemoration of rank earned Police/firefighter graduation Shield or badge charm pendant Directly represents the profession they've committed to Personal Milestrtone Jewelries Self-gifting has become much more common, and honestly, it makes sense. Sometimes, the person who best understands the effort behind an achievement is you. That's why jewelry for personal milestones feels so powerful. It becomes a tangible reminder of what you overcame, learned, or accomplished. When choosing jewelry for personal achievements, I prefer pieces that are simple, wearable, and meaningful. The goal here isn't to impress anyone else; it's to create a personal reminder of your progress. Every time you wear the piece, you're reminded of the discipline, courage, or determination that helped you reach that milestone. Occasion Jewelry Reason Marathon / 5K completion Running charm bracelet Commemorates the physical feat with a direct visual symbol Weight loss milestone Resizable gold ring Practical choice since the ring size may have changed with progress Sobriety anniversary Sober milestone pendant Widely recognized in recovery culture as a meaningful marker Recovery milestone Flower necklace Symbolizes rising from difficulty — universally understood Sports championship Championship ring-style band Mirrors the trophy culture already embedded in US sports Fitness goal achieved Motivational engraved cuff A daily wrist reminder of what discipline can accomplish Sympathy Jewelries Loss is one of the most difficult experiences we go through, and I've always believed that remembering someone we love deserves a place in our everyday lives. While no piece of jewelry can replace a person, it can serve as a comforting reminder of the memories, love, and connection that remain long after they're gone.  I think sympathy jewelry should be something personal that helps keep a loved one's memory close to our hearts. For these occasions, I prefer understated designs in classic metals and soft gemstones.  Occasion Jewelry Reason Loss of a loved one Memorial ashes pendant Holds cremation ashes, a literal way to keep someone close Pet loss memorial Paw print charm necklace Simple, recognizable symbol that pet owners deeply connect with Miscarriage remembrance Angel wing pendant Gentle, symbolic, and widely understood in grieving communities Get well soon Amethyst healing bracelet Amethyst is associated with calm and recovery across cultures Cancer survivor Gold ribbon pendant Directly tied to cancer awareness culture in the US Friendship Jewelries Friendship is one of the most important relationships in my life, and I believe it deserves to be celebrated just as much as family, romance, or personal achievements. The friends who stand by us through life's highs and lows often become part of our chosen family, making friendship jewelry a meaningful way to recognize those bonds. I've noticed that friendship jewelry has evolved far beyond the matching best-friend necklaces many of us remember growing up. Today, it's a thoughtful gifting category that's especially popular for weddings, bridesmaid gifts, girls' trips, milestone birthdays, and sorority traditions. These pieces aren't necessarily about making a grand statement; they're about honoring shared memories and meaningful connections. When choosing jewelry for friends, I prefer pieces that feel personal without being overly sentimental. Occasion Jewelry Reason Best friend's birthday Matching minimalist bracelets Shared piece that symbolizes the bond without being childish Bridesmaid gift Personalized initial necklace Each bridesmaid gets her own, personal, practical, and wearable Maid of honor gift Pearl and diamond bracelet Slightly elevated from bridesmaid gifts to mark the special role Friendship anniversary Interlinked circle pendant Symbolizes an unbroken connection, simple and meaningful Galentine's Day Birthstone stud earrings Personal and affordable, perfect for a friend group exchange Girls' trip Destination charm bracelet Can add a charm from each trip location over the years Sorority sister gift Greek letter pendant Identity-driven and meaningful within that community College roommate farewell Half-heart necklace set Classic split design that works perfectly for a parting gift Self Gifting Jewelries Self-gifting is a concept I've come to appreciate more over the years. For a long time, jewelry was seen primarily as something given by a partner, family member, or friend. Today, I think more people recognize that you don't need to wait for someone else to celebrate your achievements, milestones, or personal growth. Some of the most meaningful jewelry pieces are the ones we buy for ourselves. Whether it's a reward for reaching a goal, overcoming a difficult period, landing a dream job, or simply recognizing our own worth, self-gifted jewelry can carry a powerful personal meaning. When I choose jewelry for myself, I'm often drawn to pieces that reflect my personality rather than someone else's expectations. That's why self-gifted jewelry tends to feel more expressive, unique, and bold. It might feature a favorite gemstone, a meaningful symbol, an engraved message, or a design that simply makes me feel confident every time I wear it. Occasion Jewelry Reason Self-love / self-care treat Bold statement ring Worn on the right hand as a symbol of independence Paycheck treat layering necklace Affordable luxury that feels like a genuine reward Breakup recovery Empowerment cuff bracelet Strong, visible piece that signals a new chapter New chapter / fresh start Birthstone ring Re-centers identity around self rather than a relationship Moving to a new city City charm necklace Marks the new place as a chapter worth commemorating It’s Your Turn To Explore Now So, dear jewelry lover, these are my heartfelt jewelry recommendations for making life's special moments even more memorable. I don't know which occasion brought you here today.

Dua Lipa's engagement ring is a wide-band gypsy setting ring. On December 2024, a Christmas Eve carousel post was shared by Dua Lipa on Instagram.  Her fans noticed the holiday setting, celebrations, her attire, and even her dog's appearance, but jewelry experts and lovers had their eyes on the ring she was wearing on her ring finger.  Soon, speculation about her engagement began, but she remained silent until she confirmed her engagement to British actor Callum Turner in a Vogue story in July 2025.  After the confirmation, more details started to surface about Dua Lipa's engagement ring. Let’s find out how dua lipa engagement ring is. How Callum And Dua Came Together Lipa and Callum first met when the co-founder of River Cafe in London introduced them. However, their romantic relationship is believed to have started when they attended the after-party for the London premiere of Apple TV+'s Masters of the Air. A year later, they got engaged. The engagement ring that Callum Turner chose for Lipa is truly a masterclass in thoughtful design. It is a bit unusual and different from a traditional engagement ring, a wide cigar band with a diamond set in a gypsy setting. Dua Lipa Engagement Ring Is Very Thoughtful Before I get into what experts think about Dua Lipa's engagement ring, let me tell you how thoughtful it is. Callum did not just pick a design that Lipa likes, or something she would like. He literally observed everything about Lipa's style. It is said that Turner consulted Lipa's sister, Rina, and her close friends to ensure she would like it, as any partner should.  We have often seen Lipa wearing heavy gold jewelry, like bracelets and rings, in her Instagram posts. Possibly, that is what Turner noticed, and he designed a chunky band ring that looks big but offers practicality too. Dua Lipa publicly praised her engagement ring: "I'm obsessed with it. It's so me." Although Dua or Turner has confirmed nothing about this non-traditional custom ring, jewelry experts have shared their commentary and views on it, which I am sharing with you below. What I Observed In Dua Lipa's Engagement Ring For Diagaa, I do one job: keep an eye on what is happening in the jewelry world to ensure our collection stays on trend. That job often brings me to observe what celebrities are wearing. So, Dua Lipa's engagement ring is one of them. I checked out every possible picture of her wearing the ring, zoomed in, and tried to anticipate as many details as possible. What I, and everyone else, can clearly see in Dua Lipa's engagement ring is its chunkiness. Usually, engagement rings have raised settings like solitaire, halo, cathedral, etc., whose sole purpose is to highlight the diamond, making it the dominant element. But in Dua Lipa's engagement ring, we can clearly see that the diamond is not raised; it is set flush into the metal. The flat surface of the diamond, which we call the table, sits lower than the metal edges. In jewelry terms, this is called a gypsy setting or a semi-bezel setting. This type of setting was very popular during the Victorian era, so we can say her engagement ring is somewhat vintage-inspired. The biggest benefit of this setting is the security it provides for the diamond. When a diamond is raised, as in traditional engagement rings, there is always a risk of it getting damaged or even lost. With a gypsy setting, the diamond is better protected from knocks and clashes, allowing you to wear the ring every day without much worry. Additionally, Dua Lipa's engagement ring is known for its wide cigar band in 18k yellow gold. This might be a new term for you, so let's see what it is. What Is a Wide Cigar Band? A wide cigar band is a thick ring band inspired by the paper band wrapped around a cigar. Traditionally, it has a solid and minimal design, but modern versions may include fancy elements such as engravings, textures, or even small pavé diamonds. Going forward, no specifications of the ring have been disclosed by Dua Lipa. So, to get a better understanding of the ring's details, such as its price, diamond size, and metal purity, we have to look at what jewelry experts are saying about Dua Lipa's engagement ring. What Experts Said About Dua Lipa's Engagement Ring Susie Saltzman, an independent jewelry designer who is frequently quoted by Brides, identified the diamond as either a round brilliant cut or an old European cut. She estimated its value to be between $65,000 and $125,000, depending on the diamond's quality.  In my view, it is more likely to be an old European cut because it pairs well with the vintage-inspired setting and overall style of Lipa's ring. Olivia Landau from The Clear Cut also observed the ring's chunky, wide cigar band and half-bezel setting. She estimated the diamond to be around 2 carats, with the ring valued between $25,000 and $50,000. Laura Suttie from Queensmith similarly estimated the diamond to be around 2 carats, set in 18k yellow gold, with an estimated value of approximately $47,000. According to Nadine Tacorian, Head of Design at TACORI, Dua Lipa's engagement ring perfectly reflects the shift toward more personal and fashion-forward engagement ring styles.  Rather than following the traditional approach of placing all the attention on a large raised diamond, the ring balances the diamond with a bold, sculptural gold band. Tracey Ellison, founder of The Diamonds Girl and a luxury jewelry commentator, said that Dua Lipa's engagement ring reflects the growing popularity of bold, chunky gold engagement ring designs. However, experts can only estimate the value of the ring through visual observation of publicly available photos. That is why each expert arrived at a different valuation.  To determine the exact price of Dua Lipa's engagement ring, one would need detailed information about the diamond's 4Cs, carat, cut, color, and clarity, as well as the exact metal purity, metal weight, and the jeweler who created the ring. In Short Looking at all these expert opinions, there seems to be a consensus that the ring features a diamond of around 2 carats set in an 18k yellow gold wide cigar band with a protective half-bezel or gypsy-style setting. What makes the ring stand out is not necessarily the size of the diamond, but its thoughtful design, wearability, and strong reflection of Dua Lipa's personal style.  What Does Dua Lipa's Engagement Ring Mean What I find most interesting about Dua Lipa's engagement ring is how well it reflects her personal style. If you scroll through her Instagram posts, you will notice that she has always been a fan of bold gold jewelry.  She regularly wears chunky rings, bracelets, necklaces, and statement pieces  that stand out rather than blend in. That is why her engagement ring feels so authentic. Instead of choosing a traditional solitaire with a thin band, Callum Turner appears to have chosen a design that matches the jewelry Dua already loves to wear.  The wide cigar band, yellow gold metal, and low-profile diamond setting all fit naturally into her existing jewelry collection. In my opinion, this is exactly what an engagement ring should do. It should not look like a completely different piece of jewelry just because it is an engagement ring. It should feel like an extension of the wearer's personality, and Dua Lipa's ring does that perfectly. What About Dua Lipa's Wedding Band Photo: Daily Mail / Shutterstock Now that Dua Lipa and Callum Turner are officially married after their civil ceremony on May 31, 2026, many fans expected to see a separate wedding band alongside her engagement ring.  However, recent reports suggest that Dua has swapped her engagement ring for a wedding band instead of stacking both rings together. This decision actually makes sense when you look at the design of her engagement ring. The ring features a wide cigar band that already has a strong presence on the finger.  Adding another band could make the overall look bulky and take away the clean boldness of the ring's special look in the first place. Frequently Asked Questions Who designed Dua Lipa's engagement ring? The designer of Dua Lipa's engagement ring has never been publicly confirmed. While jewelry experts have analyzed the ring extensively, neither Dua Lipa nor Callum Turner has revealed which jeweler or jewelry house created the piece. Is Dua Lipa's engagement ring a custom design? Although there has been no official confirmation, most jewelry experts believe the ring is custom-made. The combination of a wide cigar band and a low-profile diamond setting is uncommon in traditional engagement rings, suggesting that the design was created to reflect Dua's personal style rather than following a standard catalog design. Why is Dua Lipa's engagement ring considered unique? Dua Lipa's engagement ring stands out because it prioritizes design and wearability over diamond size. Unlike traditional engagement rings that feature a raised center stone, her ring uses a low-profile setting within a chunky gold band, creating a bold yet practical look that reflects modern jewelry trends. Can you wear a gypsy-set engagement ring every day? Yes. One of the biggest advantages of a gypsy or flush-style setting is durability. Because the diamond sits protected within the metal rather than protruding above it, the ring is less likely to snag on clothing or suffer damage during everyday wear. Has Dua Lipa influenced engagement ring trends? Absolutely. Since her ring first appeared on social media, interest in wide cigar bands, chunky gold engagement rings, and low-profile diamond settings has increased significantly. Many jewelry lovers view her ring as an example of the growing shift toward personalized engagement rings that reflect individual style rather than traditional expectations.

Want to know about Jennifer Lopez's engagement rings? Hold your breath,  it's not one, not two. You will have to look at six different rings, six stories, and five different men. Hello reader, I'm a content writer and professional jewelry designer at Diagaa. My interest is to keep a keen eye on what's happening in the glamorous world of jewelry in Hollywood. I've already written detailed blog posts about several celebrities' engagement rings, and today it's JLo's turn. This blog will give you a look into Jennifer Lopez's collection of six engagement rings that she has collected so far. Let's go in. Jennifer Lopez Engagement Rings At Glance Given By Year Engagement Ring Style Carat Est. Value Ojani Noa 1997 Pear-cut white diamond on a gold band N/A $100,000 Cris Judd 2001 Emerald-cut diamond on a pavé diamond band 5 ct $400,000 Ben Affleck 2002 Radiant-cut pink diamond with white diamond side stones 6.1 ct $1.2M–$2.5M Marc Anthony 2004 Blue diamond with four baguette accent stones 8.5 ct $4M Alex Rodriguez 2019 Emerald-cut white diamond solitaire on a classic band 15 ct $1M–$5M Ben Affleck 2022 Radiant-cut green diamond with half-moon white diamond sides on platinum 8.5 ct $5M–$10M+ Jennifer Lopez's Engagement Ring From Ojani Noa Jennifer and Noa first met in a restaurant in Miami in 1996, where Noa was working as a waiter. After a quick courtship, they tied the knot in 1997. Shortly after the wedding, Jennifer's career shot up with the success of her movie Selena.  But with that success came the pressure of managing a rising career and a new marriage at the same time. After just 8 months together, they decided to part ways. What followed were years of legal disputes in court, and what was left behind was Jennifer's first-ever engagement ring, the opening chapter of pop culture's most documented jewelry collection. Ojani Noa gave Jennifer a pear-cut diamond ring in white gold, estimated at $100,000 at the time. Although details about the style of this ring are limited, it is widely believed to have been a solitaire setting. Jennifer Lopez’s Engagement Ring From Criss Judd If Ojani Noa was Jennifer's first love story, then Cris Judd was her most unexpected one. Cris Judd was a backup dancer in her music video Love Don't Cost a Thing in 2001. They began dating and moved very quickly. By late 2001, Cris proposed, and Jennifer accepted. Cris gave Jennifer an elongated emerald-cut diamond engagement ring with pavé diamonds on a platinum band. Jewelry experts estimated the cost of the ring at around $400,000 and the size of the diamond at 5 carats.  This second ring in Jennifer's engagement ring collection was a bit more sparkly than her first one. But this ring did not get many headlines, partly due to their just 9-month marriage and the legal procedures that followed afterwards. But what came afterwards changed everything. Because the next person in line to give Jennifer an engagement ring was Ben Affleck, and the ring he chose changed the entire dynamic of the engagement ring world at that time. Jennifer Lopez’s Engagement Ring From Ben Affleck - First Ring Bennifer - yes, that is what the media dubbed them, and it became one of the first celebrity super-couple nicknames ever. And that feeling kept going, because when they unfortunately parted in 2004, Jennifer herself considered it her biggest heartbreak.  She was truly into Ben, as proved when they got back together again in 2021 with fresh affection and a brand new engagement ring. Anyway, coming back to their first chapter, which started on the set of the movie Gigli in 2002, when Jennifer was still married to Cris. She filed for divorce from Judd in 2002, and by November 2002, Ben proposed to Jennifer at home with a ring that was about to set a trend. Jennifer Lopez's third engagement ring was very attractive, a fancy pink diamond in a radiant cut, weighing 6.1 carats. The ring was made in a romantic three-stone setting, where the pink diamond was flanked by two step-cut trapezoid white diamonds.  At that time, colored diamond engagement rings were not popular at all. Even Harry Winston, the very jeweler who made the ring,  stated that "J-Lo was a big force behind the trend." After Jennifer, other celebrities like Mariah Carey, Blake Lively, and Victoria Beckham also chose pink diamonds for their jewelry. It remains one of the most famous engagement rings in history, with an estimated price of a whopping $2.5M–$4M today and $1.2M at that time. But even after all the trend-setting and attention-grabbing, Jennifer's third relationship came to an end in 2004. And then, just six months later, came the man who would spend the most years with Jennifer as her partner - and even have children with her. That man was Marc Anthony. Jennifer Lopez’s Engagement Ring From Marc Anthony Jennifer has always been good at surprising people with her quick marriage decisions, and she did it again. After just six months of breaking apart from Ben, she got married to Marc Anthony.  She and Marc had known each other for a long time before they got married. Marc proposed to Jennifer in June 2004, again with a colored diamond, this time in blue, and even bigger at 8.5 carats.  Her previous ring had two accent diamonds flanking the center diamond; this time, four baguette side stones flanked the blue diamond. Jennifer's fourth engagement ring was also made by Harry Winston.  This ring was much more expensive than her previous rings, because a blue diamond is one of the rarest diamonds in the world, even rarer than pink, so its estimated price was $4M at that time. Safe to say, Marc did compete with Ben's ring, with a bigger diamond and an even rarer color. This relationship with Marc is the longest she has ever had in her life. They stayed together for 10 years and even had two children together,  Emme and Maximilian, both born in 2008.  Eventually, they separated in 2011, relatively quietly compared to her previous relationships. And then, after a series of marriages, heartbreaks, and lawsuits, Jennifer remained single for quite a long time, almost 10 years, until baseball star Alex Rodriguez crossed paths with Jennifer's life in 2019, bringing with him the biggest diamond engagement ring in her collection so far. Jennifer Lopez’s Engagement Ring From Alex Rodriguez After a series of marriages, heartbreaks, and a long period of staying single, Jennifer finally found stability, or so it seemed. Alex Rodriguez, the legendary baseball star, began dating Jennifer in February 2017.  Both were at similar points in their lives, both had children from previous relationships, and both were at the peak of their careers. Things moved steadily this time, not rushed like before.  After two years of dating, Alex proposed to Jennifer in March 2019 during a romantic vacation in the Bahamas, a sunset beach proposal that felt almost too cinematic to be real. Alex gave Jennifer a 15-carat emerald-cut white diamond ring, colorless with the highest clarity, set on a clean classic solitaire band.  According to Brandon Hill of Steve Quick Jeweler, "the diamond looks to be around 15 carats and is colorless with the highest clarity,  set in a simple but elegant solitaire mounting."  Gemologists at Jacob & Co. further confirmed it as collection grade quality, the highest grading a diamond can receive.  As for the price, experts were not entirely in agreement; estimates ranged from $1M on the conservative end to $5M according to Shane Co.'s   But despite the stability, despite the big diamond, and despite two years of what looked like a perfect relationship, they called off the engagement in April 2021. They never made it to the altar. And then, just weeks after the split, something nobody expected happened. A name from the past came back, and this time, he came back with the rarest diamond Jennifer had ever seen. Jennifer Lopez’s Engagement Ring From Ben Affleck - Second Ring Remember when Jennifer called her split from Ben her biggest heartbreak? Remember when she said it sent her on a spiral for 18 years? Well, 18 years later, the universe had other plans. Just weeks after her split from Alex Rodriguez in 2021, Jennifer and Ben reconnected. Bennifer was back. In April 2022, Ben proposed to Jennifer for the second time, and he did it in the most personal way possible.  Jennifer herself shared the moment in her OnTheJLo newsletter:  "Saturday night, while at my favorite place on earth, in the bubble bath, my beautiful love got on one knee and proposed. I was taken totally off guard and just looked in his eyes, smiling and crying at the same time, trying hard to get my head around the fact that after 20 years, this was happening all over again." The ring Ben chose this time was extraordinary.  Ilan Portugali of Beverly Hills Diamonds,  the diamantaire who personally sourced the stone for Affleck, described it as an "8.5-carat natural green cushion modified brilliant cut diamond, among the rarest and most sought after fancy-color diamonds in the world."  The green diamond was flanked by two half-moon white diamond accent stones, all set on a platinum band, as confirmed later in Jennifer's own divorce settlement documents obtained by People Magazine.  As for the value, Diamond Pro CEO Mike Fried told Page Six: "I would value the ring well over $5 million and could be worth more than $10 million." This time, Ben was not just choosing a random good-looking engagement ring; he was conscious about Jennifer's likes and dislikes, her personal beliefs.  He chose green because Jennifer believed green was her lucky color. From her iconic green Versace gown at the 2000 Grammy Awards to her personal belief that good things happen to her when she wears green.  And apart from that, what made this ring truly special was the engraving on the band. Ben had engraved the words "not. going anywhere." They married in July 2022 in Las Vegas, followed by a larger ceremony in Georgia. But unfortunately, even the rarest diamond and the most personal engraving could not hold things together. Jennifer filed for divorce in August 2024, and it was finalized in January 2025. Per the divorce settlement, Jennifer kept the green diamond ring. Which Jennifer Lopez Engagement Ring Do You Like As you saw, Jennifer Lopez moved in and out of relationships, leaving behind some gorgeous engagement rings each time. Across these six relationships, Jennifer received all kinds of engagement rings, from the simplest to the most intricate, from colorless diamonds to colored diamonds, from trend-setting to deeply meaningful. I hope you enjoyed this journey through Jennifer Lopez's engagement rings, from all the way back in 1997 to 2022. And I am sure you have a favourite out of all six. Below, I have listed Jennifer Lopez-inspired engagement rings that we have made at Diagaa. Take a look,  they are identical in style and a lot more affordable, so anyone can own a piece of that glamour. Thank you for showing up.  Jennifer Lopez-Inspired Engagement Rings At Diagaa Natural Diamond Pear Shaped Solitaire Engagement Ring (Inspired by Noa Ring) Lab Diamond Emerald Cut Bezel Ring (Inspired by Judd Ring) Fancy Pink Diamond Pear Solitaire Bezel Engagement Ring (Inspired by Ben Affleck's First Ring) Fancy Blue Diamond Emerald Solitaire Pave Engagement Ring (Inspired by Marc Anthony's Ring)  Also Read Taylor Swift’s engagement ring Zendaya’s engagement ring Ariana Grande’s engagement ring Selena Gomez's engagement ring Lainey Wilson engagement Ainsley Earhardt Engagement Ring Hailey Bieber Engagement Ring Emily Campagno Engagement Ring Frequently Asked Questions Did Jennifer Lopez keep any of her engagement rings after her divorce? Yes. Per the divorce settlement documents obtained by People Magazine, Jennifer kept the 8.5-carat green diamond engagement ring from Ben Affleck after their divorce was finalized in January 2025. Affleck waived all rights to her jewelry in the settlement. As for her other rings, none of the previous settlements made it to public record, so it is not officially confirmed what happened to the rings from Ojani Noa, Cris Judd, Marc Anthony, and Alex Rodriguez. Which of Jennifer Lopez's engagement rings is the most expensive?  The most expensive ring in Jennifer's collection is her green diamond engagement ring from Ben Affleck's second proposal in 2022. Diamond Pro CEO Mike Fried valued it at over $5 million, with some experts going as high as $10 million.  Why did Jennifer Lopez receive two engagement rings from Ben Affleck?  Ben Affleck proposed to Jennifer twice,  first in 2002 and again in 2022,  because their relationship spanned two entirely different chapters of their lives. The first engagement ended in 2004 before they made it to the altar. Nearly 20 years later, after both had lived separate lives, married other people, and gone through their own journeys, they reconnected in 2021, and Affleck proposed again.  What should couples learn from Jennifer Lopez's engagement ring collection when choosing their own ring?  Jennifer Lopez's collection teaches one very important lesson: the most meaningful ring is the one that is personal, not just expensive. Ben Affleck's 2022 green diamond was not chosen because it was the rarest or the priciest option available. It was chosen because green was Jennifer's lucky color, because it carried personal meaning, and because it came with an engraving that spoke directly to their story.   

Confused about how to choose the perfect moss agate engagement ring? Don't worry. In the next few minutes, you'll learn exactly what to look for and how to avoid common buying mistakes. As a gemologist, I have examined more than 5,000 gemstones and helped countless jewelry lovers choose the right gemstone based on their preferences, lifestyle, and budget. Today, I'll walk you through the same process I use to evaluate a moss agate engagement ring, so you can choose one that looks beautiful, lasts longer, and fits comfortably within your budget. What Is Moss Agate? First and foremost, let me tell you what moss agate actually is and what makes it look so distinctive. Moss agate is a semi-precious gemstone featuring dark green, moss-like patterns within the stone.  Although each moss agate has a different pattern and can display inclusions in various colors, green remains the most common and recognizable. These natural patterns make moss agate an eye-catching gemstone, with no two stones looking exactly alike. Moss agate is durable, too. It has a hardness of 6.5 to 7 on mohs scale, which means you can wear a moss agate engagement ring daily, but with proper care.  In addition to beauty and durability, moss agate is also symbolic. Historically, moss agate possessed healing properties that could strengthen the immune system and assist during childbirth because of its supposed pain-relieving abilities.   Disclaimer: The symbolic benefits of moss agate are based on historical folklore. They are not scientifically backed. Is Moss Agate the Right Choice for an Engagement Ring? Well, the answer is yes, but it depends on your preferences. While diamonds are still the most traditional and popular choice for engagement rings, they are not the only option. You should choose a moss agate engagement ring in the following cases: If you love nature-inspired rings and organic designs. If you are seeking an affordable yet eye-catching alternative to a diamond. If you want a truly unique gemstone, as no two moss agates look exactly alike. If symbolism and personal meaning are important to you. If you prefer standing out from traditional engagement ring styles. If you've decided to buy a moss agate engagement ring against all odds, that's not a bad choice at all. In fact, moss agate can be a beautiful and meaningful gemstone for an engagement ring. However, moss agate is a world of its own. No two moss agates are exactly alike. Each stone has its own unique pattern, color variations, and character. That's what makes choosing a moss agate engagement ring both exciting and challenging. Before I tell you anything about the technical aspects that I look at while choosing a moss agate for an engagement ring, let me first tell you which types of moss agates are actually right for engagement rings. Because there are thousands of moss agates to choose from, and not all of them create the same look. Understanding the different types will make it much easier for you to choose the perfect moss agate engagement ring later on. The Types Of Moss Agate for an Engagement Ring Moss agate is available in hundreds of varieties. You can classify these varieties into three categories:  Types based on background Types based on pattern Types based on color Moss Agate Types Based on Background Although the most distinctive characteristic of moss agate is its plant-like inclusions, the stone's background is equally important. Just as a beautiful painting is not complete without a thoughtful background. For a moss agate engagement ring, the most popular background varieties are snowy moss agate, ice-clear moss agate, and smoky moss agate. Each creates a completely different look, even when the moss-like patterns are similar. Moss Agate Types Based on Inclusion Appearance Another aspect that separates one moss agate from another is the appearance of its inclusions. While all moss agates contain natural mineral inclusions, these inclusions can form different visual patterns, giving each stone a unique character and overall look. For moss agate engagement rings, buyers frequently choose Cloud Moss Agate and Dendritic Moss Agate.  Moss Agate Types Based on Color Although green is the standard and most common color of moss agate, it is not the only one. Just as diamonds are available in different colors, moss agate can also be found in several eye-catching colors. These color variations give the gemstone a completely different look and feel. Some of the most popular colorful moss agates used in engagement rings are Red Moss Agate, Black Moss Agate, and Gold Moss Agate. What to Look for When Choosing a Moss Agate Engagement Ring Okay, so now we know what moss agate is and which types are best suited for an engagement ring. Now comes the most important part: what else should you look for besides appearance and color when choosing a moss agate engagement ring? I'll show you exactly how I approach the process simply and systematically. These are the same factors I would evaluate before recommending a moss agate engagement ring to someone. By the end of this section, you'll be able to assess a moss agate ring the same way an expert would. The first thing, and arguably the most important thing, that I check is the quality of the inclusions, because that's what gives a moss agate engagement ring its identity and makes it different from every other gemstone. Right Stone Shape For Moss Agate Engagement Ring Choosing the right stone shape is one of my top priorities, not just for a moss agate engagement ring, but for gemstones in general, because that's what gives your ring a distinctive look. As the type of gemstone changes, my preference for its shape changes too. For a diamond engagement ring, my first choice is usually a traditional round diamond because round diamonds just look amazing in that shape. In the same way, certain gemstone shapes simply look better with certain gemstones than others. Of course, this is completely my own opinion. It is not written in some rulebook that you must choose a particular shape. At the end of the day, it comes down to personal preference. Anyway, for a moss agate engagement ring, my preferred stone shapes would be: Oval: Provides a large viewing area and showcases the inclusions beautifully. This would be my first choice. Pear: Works well when the inclusions naturally flow in one direction. A great option if you want a more unique look. Marquise: If I had longer fingers, I would definitely consider this shape because it creates an elegant, elongated appearance. Cushion: Works well with most moss agate patterns and is generally a safe choice. Emerald: Excellent for landscape-like inclusions because the large table acts like a window into the gemstone. Evaluate the Moss-Like Inclusions The second thing I look at when choosing a moss agate engagement ring is the quality and appearance of its inclusions, because they give the gemstone its identity and make it unique. Density of Inclusions The first thing I will check is the density of the inclusions. I will choose a moss agate for an engagement ring that has a balanced inclusion pattern. Not one that has inclusions covering almost the entire stone, and not one that looks almost empty because the inclusions are insufficient. Distribution of Inclusions The next thing I check in a moss agate engagement ring is the distribution of the inclusions. I will not select a moss agate where the inclusions are heavily concentrated in one area of the stone. Instead, I want them to be distributed naturally throughout the gemstone. Contrast Then I will look for the contrast between the background and the inclusions. I do not want a stone where the inclusions are completely dominated by the background, and I do not want the opposite either. Transparency This factor is often overlooked by people when choosing a moss agate engagement ring. Most buyers focus on the inclusions and whether there is a good balance between the background and the pattern, but the transparency of the stone is equally important to me. Because transparency affects how visible the inclusions will be. For a moss agate engagement ring, my preference is usually a semi-transparent stone because it offers a good balance between clarity and character.  Select the Right Setting for the Moss Agate Ring After selecting a stone shape and evaluating the inclusions, I will look at the ring setting. I believe that if the stone shape gives personality to the gemstone itself, the setting in which it is placed defines the personality of the entire ring. More importantly, the setting plays a major role in determining how securely the gemstone stays in place over the years. So, when choosing a setting, I think about both beauty and durability. As far as moss agate engagement rings are concerned, these are my favorite settings: Hidden Halo Setting A hidden halo setting works beautifully with a moss agate engagement ring. From the top, you can fully appreciate the beauty of the moss agate, while from the side, you get the extra sparkle of small diamonds hidden beneath the center stone. I like this setting because it highlights the natural patterns of the moss agate while adding a touch of sparkle without stealing attention from the gemstone. Three-Stone Setting For an engagement ring, the three-stone setting is one of the most romantic choices. The three stones are often said to represent your shared past, present, and future together. When a moss agate is placed in the center with diamonds on both sides, the ring looks stunning. I like this setting because it offers both beauty and meaning at the same time. Nature-Inspired Setting Personally, this is my favorite setting for a moss agate engagement ring because it completes the story. Nature-inspired details such as leaves, vines, branches, or floral elements perfectly match the organic character of moss agate. The result is a ring that feels much more unique than a traditional engagement ring and complements the natural beauty of the stone. Metal For Moss Agate Engagement Ring The last thing I will decide before ordering or choosing my moss agate engagement ring is the metal. Most of the time, I prefer gold because it is a timeless and traditional choice. But did you know that gold is not limited to just yellow, white, and rose gold? Today, gold is available in several other colors as well, including green gold. Yes, you heard that right, green gold. For a moss agate engagement ring, I would personally choose green gold because it creates a beautiful contrast between the center stone and the metal. Since moss agate already has a strong natural character, I like pairing it with something a little different rather than following the traditional route. For durability, I would prefer 14K green gold because it offers a good balance between strength and precious metal content. Again, this is purely a personal preference. You can choose any precious metal you like. The main thing I would consider is how well the metal complements the stone and whether it is durable enough for everyday wear. And that's it. Once I am satisfied with the inclusions, transparency, shape, setting, and metal, I am ready to choose my moss agate engagement ring. Post Creation Check Up Quality inspection is one thing I do not recommend anyone neglect. You are spending a significant amount of money on an engagement ring, and more importantly, it carries emotional value. You probably would not want to replace it quickly or send it for repairs within a few weeks. That's why I always inspect the craftsmanship of the ring before making a final decision. Stone Security The first thing I check is whether the stone is securely set. The gemstone should not move or rattle when gently touched. A loose stone is a major red flag. Prongs I also inspect the prongs carefully. They should be evenly positioned and firmly hold the gemstone in place. Uneven or poorly finished prongs can affect both the appearance and security of the ring. Setting Quality There should not be visible gaps between the gemstone and the metal setting. A well-made setting should fit the stone properly and look seamless. Polishing I always check the finish of the metal. There should not be rough patches, sharp edges, or uneven polishing anywhere on the ring. Proportions If the ring contains multiple stones, I make sure they are properly aligned. Nothing looks more distracting than side stones that sit unevenly or appear out of proportion with the center stone. Hallmarks Finally, I never forget to check the hallmark. It helps verify the authenticity and purity of the precious metal and gives me confidence that I am getting what I paid for. Consider Your Lifestyle One more thing that I will consider before choosing a moss agate engagement ring is my lifestyle. Personally, I will ask myself a few questions before making the final decision. Do I work with my hands regularly? Do I play sports frequently? Do I go to the gym while wearing my ring? Am I willing to remove my ring during rough activities? If the answer to most of these questions is yes, then I will be extra careful while wearing a moss agate engagement ring. The reality is that a moss agate engagement ring requires a little more care than a diamond engagement ring. If you are the type of person who never removes their ring regardless of the activity, then a harder gemstone may be a better choice. For me, this is not a deal breaker at all. I have no problem removing my ring during activities that could expose it to unnecessary impact or scratches. In return, I get a unique gemstone that looks unlike any other. So before choosing a moss agate engagement ring, be honest about your lifestyle and expectations. The right gemstone is not only the one that looks beautiful, but also the one that fits the way you live. Frequently Asked Questions Is moss agate good for an engagement ring? Yes, moss agate is a good choice for an engagement ring if you value uniqueness, symbolism, and affordability. With a Mohs hardness of 6.5 to 7, it is durable enough for daily wear when handled with proper care. How expensive is moss agate? Moss agate is generally much more affordable than diamonds and many other popular engagement ring gemstones. The final price depends on the quality of the stone, ring setting, metal choice, and whether the ring is custom-made. What stones should not be used for an engagement ring? Very soft gemstones such as opal, pearl, fluorite, and calcite are generally not recommended for engagement rings because they can scratch, chip, or wear down more easily with daily use. What does a moss agate ring mean? Moss agate is often associated with nature, growth, balance, and new beginnings. Many couples choose moss agate engagement rings because the gemstone's organic patterns symbolize a unique relationship and a strong connection to nature. How long will a moss agate ring last? A moss agate ring can last for decades if properly cared for. The gemstone is durable enough for everyday wear, but avoiding hard impacts, harsh chemicals, and rough activities will help preserve its beauty over time.

Lainey Wilson got engaged to former NFL quarterback Devlin "Duck" Hodges. Devlin planned the proposal at the historic George Jones Estate in Franklin, Tennessee. He proposed to Lainey with a stunning and eye-catching cluster engagement ring that quickly became a hot topic among jewelry lovers around the world. What made people talk so much about Lainey Wilson's engagement ring? What was so special about it? Celebrity engagements are common these days, and most engagement rings tend to feature traditional solitaire designs. However, Devlin chose something different for Lainey's ring. Let's take a closer look at what makes Lainey Wilson's engagement ring unique and explore how you can create a similar style for yourself. Update: Lainey Wilson Is Now Married - And Her Wedding Band Is Just as Stunning Before we get into the engagement ring itself, here is the update you need to know. Lainey Wilson and Devlin Hodges got married on May 10, 2026, at a beautiful waterfall venue in Tennessee. The wedding was intimate but star-studded, with guests including Luke Bryan, Wynonna Judd, Jelly Roll, and Miranda Lambert. Just one week later, on May 17, 2026, Lainey walked the red carpet at the 61st Academy of Country Music Awards in Las Vegas, and that is when the world got its first proper look at her complete bridal stack. She wore a classic diamond-encrusted wedding band alongside her cluster engagement ring. What makes it special is not just the sparkle. The band was designed to fit into the engagement ring like a puzzle piece, so both rings sit flush together as one seamless composition on her finger. The strapless orange gown she wore that night kept the focus entirely on the rings, exactly as it should have been. She told people on the red carpet: "It was everything that we could have imagined, to be honest. It was perfect. It was beautiful." Now, with the full picture in front of us, let's go back to where it all started. Devlin did not choose a traditional engagement ring Whether it is Taylor Swift, Zendaya, or Princess Diana, most celebrity engagement rings are either classic solitaire designs or slightly updated versions of solitaire rings. However, Devlin Hodges completely broke this trend with Lainey Wilson's engagement ring. It is said that during the early stages of their relationship, Lainey sent Devlin a picture of her dream ring. Inspired by that image, Devlin hired Hollie Winter Fine Jewelry in Nashville to create something truly extraordinary for the woman he loved. And they delivered exactly that. Hollie Winter Fine Jewelry designed a striking cluster ring featuring three large gemstones at its center. Traditionally, engagement rings focus on a single center stone, but Lainey's ring is all about the harmony and balance between multiple gemstones. The ring features an elongated cushion-cut diamond on the left, an oval-cut diamond on the right, and a pear-cut diamond nestled at the bottom with its pointed tip facing downward. Surrounding those three anchor stones are smaller round and marquise diamonds that extend outward, creating a layered floral composition. At first glance, the ring looks less like a traditional engagement ring and more like a glamorous statement ring designed for a red carpet appearance. The Story Behind the Lainey Wilson Engagement Ring When you and I buy an engagement ring, we usually walk into a jewelry store, look at what is available, consider our budget, and choose from a catalog. Celebrities, however, do not approach engagement rings the same way. Budget is rarely their main concern. Instead, they focus on personal taste, symbolism, and the meaning behind the jewelry. Almost every major celebrity engagement ring in recent memory has a unique story behind its design. That pattern becomes obvious the moment you look at the celebrity engagements and ring trends that have emerged throughout 2025 and into 2026. How Taylor Swift's Engagement Ring Is Created For instance, the rumored engagement ring of Taylor Swift from Travis Kelce is said to be made by goldsmith Kindred Lubeck. It is said that Taylor always wanted to feel like a queen. And to make her feel like the queen of his life, Travis chose a vintage-inspired engagement ring. That is why Kindred Lubeck created a ring with a Victorian-inspired Old Mine Cut diamond, hand-engraved in yellow gold. The final piece is jaw-dropping. You know, even the jeweler who designed Taylor's ring was kind of a sign from her. She reportedly showed Travis a video of Kindred Lubeck's work roughly a year and a half before the proposal. So when the final ring came, it was made by her favorite jeweler, ordered by her favorite person, and carried her own desires in it. That is the meaning behind it. What Different Devlin Did For Lainey's Engagement Ring Here, Lainey Wilson's engagement ring also has a story behind it. It is said that Devlin Hodges was secretly noticing everything Lainey said about her style and what she liked. One of the biggest inspirations for the ring was the image of an engagement ring she sent Devlin during the early stage of their relationship. Meanwhile, on a podcast in 2024, she jokingly said, "I don't care what shape it is, but I want to be walking with a limp." She even told Devlin to get a loan. Of course, Devlin probably did not need to take a loan, but this was one of many signs that she wanted something big-looking and very shiny. Taking as many clues as possible, Devlin worked with Hollie Winter Fine Jewelry to create this cluster ring as Lainey Wilson's engagement ring. On top of everything, the ring was delivered in a cowboy hat box. It felt like a creative way of saying, "I remember everything." So yeah, celebrities work with meaning and personal preference very precisely while creating engagement rings for their partners, and Lainey Wilson's engagement ring is no different. Digging Deep Into The Lainey Wilson Engagement Ring Design Lainey Wilson's engagement ring is based on a cluster ring design, which is, of course, not a new concept. Back in the Victorian era, jewelers used to create rings like this quite often. These rings looked bulky and highly decorative on the finger. But as solitaire engagement rings became more popular, and people started understanding their practicality for daily wear, the use of cluster diamonds in engagement rings slowly decreased and almost disappeared. Today, you barely see engagement rings as bold and bulky as Lainey's ring, right? Probably, she already has simpler rings that work well with everyday life and daily hustle, while this cluster ring is more about remembering one of the biggest and most beautiful days of her life. But anyway, Lainey Wilson's main engagement ring is uniquely bold. Let's see what it contains. When you first look at her engagement ring, you may find it difficult to recognize the exact shape of the diamonds. That is because several diamond shapes are arranged together using different settings to create one large abstract-looking piece instead of highlighting each stone individually. The complete anatomy of Lainey Wilson's engagement ring Center layout The ring features three anchor gemstones that form the heart of the design: an elongated cushion-cut diamond on the left, an oval-cut diamond on the right, and a pear-shaped diamond at the bottom center with its pointed tip facing downward. Together, these three diamonds create a flower-like pattern, which has become the true identity of the ring. Surrounding stones Those three center stones are surrounded by smaller round and marquise diamonds, which act like a frame or "drip" of sparkle extending along the sides and down the band. Because of these surrounding diamonds, the center stones look more like one larger composition rather than three separate gemstones. The result is a sculptural, almost three-dimensional bouquet of light that catches attention from across a room. Metal and Build The ring is set in yellow gold, which gives the white diamonds a warm, rich contrast that cooler metals like platinum would not create in the same way. The design is inspired by the vintage Victorian style, featuring a high-profile setting with prong and pavé detailing throughout. Cost Of Lainey Wilson's Engagement Ring Neither Lainey Wilson, Devlin Hodges, nor Hollie Winter Fine Jewelry has disclosed the actual price of the ring. There may be several reasons behind keeping the price private. After all, it is their personal choice, and we cannot really do anything about that. However, jewelers and experts have still estimated the ring's value based on what is visible. Most of these estimates are focused on the quality and total carat weight of the diamonds, because those stones cost far more than any other element in the ring. Jewelry experts estimate the ring contains approximately 7 carats of total diamond weight across all the stones. Based on that, most professional estimates place the ring's value somewhere between $150,000 and $250,000, depending on the clarity and color grades of the individual diamonds. Some estimates on the higher end have suggested the ring could be worth more if the center stones are natural diamonds of exceptional quality, with numbers going up to $1,000,000 in the most generous assessments. How To Have a Lainey Wilson Engagement Ring on a Budget Okay, so this is probably the part of the guide you have been waiting for, isn't it? Do not worry. In the next couple of minutes, you will learn how to create an engagement ring that looks very similar to Lainey Wilson's ring within a budget you can actually afford. But before you get into that. There is one important note from us. Lainey Wilson's engagement ring is not very practical for daily wear. Yes, this kind of ring works beautifully for special occasions, events, and glamorous appearances. But cluster rings are usually complex in design and include many small diamonds. Rings with multiple small stones are generally harder to maintain during everyday life, especially with constant movement, hugging, and the regular wear and tear of daily routines. Set a budget and be specific. Considering your budget before customizing an engagement ring should be your top priority. Any purchase that creates a financial burden or disrupts your economic stability is often more of an emotional decision than a practical one, and it can affect many other important parts of life. Financial advisors generally suggest spending only around 5–10% of your annual take-home salary on an engagement ring. We have also written a detailed guide on how much you should spend on an engagement ring, so make sure to read that before we move further into deciding the elements needed to create an engagement ring inspired by Lainey Wilson's ring. Choose metal and gemstone. The second step is choosing the gemstones. Lainey Wilson's ring may feature diamonds worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, which is obviously not practical or accessible for most middle-class buyers. But that does not mean you cannot achieve a very similar look. You absolutely can. You should choose diamond alternatives that are physically and chemically close to real diamonds. Lab-grown diamonds and moissanite are our top recommendations. These alternatives can save you up to 50% or even more compared to the cost of natural diamonds. Apart from this, you can also choose gemstones with slightly lower clarity grades. Once the stones are set into the ring, almost nobody can identify the clarity difference without checking the certification. The beauty of a cluster ring comes more from the arrangement and composition of the stones rather than the price of each gemstone. A well-designed cluster ring with lab-grown diamonds and a yellow gold band can create the same bold visual effect at a fraction of the original price. Should You Also Add a Matching Wedding Band? If you saw Lainey's full bridal stack at the ACM Awards and fell in love with how the wedding band and engagement ring work together as one piece, this is worth thinking about at the design stage, not after. The reason her stack looks so seamless is that both rings were designed to fit together. The wedding band was shaped to nestle into the contours of the cluster ring, rather than sitting separately alongside it. If you want to recreate that look, the best approach is to design both rings together with the same custom jeweler from the start. That way, the band curves and fits around your cluster ring perfectly, just like Lainey's does. Find a custom jeweler who listens. The single most important thing about Lainey Wilson's ring is not the stones or the price. It is that it was custom-made by someone who understood the person wearing it. For a ring that feels personal rather than purchased, that conversation with your jeweler matters more than any other variable. Look for jewelers who show their process, who ask questions about your lifestyle, and who can explain why certain combinations work rather than just showing you what is popular. Note: Diagaa can be a reliable jeweler for you. At Diagaa, we offer fast and credible custom jewelry design services. All you need to do is fill out the custom design form and mention, "I want a ring inspired by Lainey Wilson's engagement ring." Our team will reach out to you as soon as possible, and together we can create a similar-looking engagement ring within your preferred budget. In Summary: Choose multiple diamond shapes (cushion, oval, pear, round, and marquise) Use pavé and prong detailing with a high-profile setting Choose moissanite or a lab diamond Choose a lower clarity, higher cut diamond Create a floral design Use yellow gold in a lower purity Design your wedding band at the same time, so it fits the cluster ring perfectly. Why Lainey Wilson's Engagement Ring Matters Lainey Wilson's engagement ring can definitely be copied. Jewelers are already creating replicas using less expensive materials, and some of these rings look so similar that most people would not be able to tell the difference from the original. But there is one thing about Lainey Wilson's engagement ring that cannot truly be copied. That is Devlin Hodges's attention to detail. He created something iconic by understanding one specific person deeply enough to design exactly what she would love before she even asked for it. That was not just a jewelry decision. It was a relationship decision that happened to result in a piece of jewelry. And watching her walk the ACM Awards red carpet as a newly married woman, with the wedding band sitting perfectly inside the cluster ring, only made that story more complete.

Let’s talk today about Ariana Grande's engagement ring. Ariana Grande is one of those Hollywood personalities who tells her story through her songs. Through her emotional and deeply personal music, she has won the hearts of people all around the world. At 32, Ariana is one of the most popular celebrities on the planet today. But the life of this beautiful and highly talented star has also been filled with romance. In her romantic journey, she has worn many engagement rings, given many people a special place in her heart, and faced several breakups and heartbreaks along the way. And the most beautiful part? She even gave engagement rings to her friends. In my opinion, Ariana is perhaps the only celebrity who truly brought the famous quote, “Friendships can be the greatest romances of our lives,” to life. Today, I’m taking you into Ariana Grande’s romantic world, where we’ll explore not just one, not two, but three different Ariana Grande’s engagement rings connected to her story. Ariana Grande's Engagement Ring From Pete Ariana Grande’s engagement ring from Pete Davidson came in 2018. Pete and Ariana’s relationship developed at an incredibly fast pace, and it ended just as quickly. But within that short relationship, there were enough emotions and twists to make an entire movie. Ariana and Pete first met on the set of Saturday Night Live. At that time, Ariana was happily spending her life with rapper Mac Miller. Time passed, and then came the year 2018. In May, everything suddenly changed, almost like a movie reaching its interval and returning with a dramatic twist in the second half. The Ring That Arrived Before Anyone Was Ready One day in May 2018, Pete called his well-known jeweler, Greg Yuna, and asked him to design an engagement ring for Ariana. Even Ariana had no idea that another engagement ring was about to enter her life. Everything between the two was happening unbelievably fast. That same month, Ariana said goodbye to Mac Miller, ending their two-year relationship. Then, almost immediately in the very next month, Ariana Grande’s engagement ring from Pete Davidson entered the spotlight. The couple started living together in a Chelsea apartment, and both celebrities even got tattoos of each other’s names. It felt as if heaven itself had descended into their lives, and everything seemed perfectly smooth. But then came the day that changed everything, as if an eclipse had suddenly covered the sunlight. It was September, and Ariana had been wearing her engagement ring for only four months when Mac Miller tragically died from an accidental overdose. After his death, Ariana wrote: “I adored you from the day I met you when I was nineteen, and I always will. I'm so sorry I couldn't fix or take your pain away.” After that statement, Pete realized Ariana was carrying a grief that had nothing to do with him, a pain no engagement ring could ever erase. And finally, in October 2018, the two separated without any betrayal or public drama. Ariana returned the engagement ring Pete had given her, and all that remained were the tattoos on their bodies. This marked the end of Ariana Grande’s engagement ring story with Pete Davidson; it also became the beginning of the “Seven engagement Rings”, a chapter that transformed heartbreak into art and gave Ariana an entirely new identity in the eyes of the world.  Now, let’s explore what the engagement ring given to Ariana Grande by Pete Davidson actually looked like. Ariana Grande’s engagement ring Worth $93k From Pete The engagement ring that Pete Davidson gave to Ariana Grande was valued at nearly $100,000.  The 3.03-carat pear-cut diamond was beautifully set by jeweler Greg Yuna in a halo setting. The small diamonds surrounding the center diamond added an extra layer of brilliance and elegance, making the ring stand out even more. Experts also believe that, considering the ring’s price, the diamond was most likely a D-color, VVS1-quality diamond. So, did you like this Ariana Grande engagement ring? Would you also love to wear an engagement ring like this? Don’t worry, you won’t have to spend $100,000 for it. Diagaa can create a similar ring for you for under $5,000. And no, that doesn’t mean you’ll receive a fake diamond or imitation gold. For more details, feel free to contact us, or explore our pear-shaped engagement ring collection, where you’ll also find engagement rings inspired by Ariana Grande’s iconic style. Characteristics Of Ariana Grande's Engagement Ring From Pete Style: Halo engagement ring Stone: Natural diamond Cut: Pear-shaped (teardrop)  Carat Weight: 3.03 carats Clarity: VVS1  Color: likely D to F  Metal: Platinum  Jeweler: Greg Yuna, New York City Value: $93,000 Ariana Grande’s Engagement Rings for Friends: Celebrating Friendships Ariana Grande returned the $93,000 pear-shaped engagement ring to Pete Davidson. For several months afterward, she was seen in public without the ring and without any hand accessories at all. Her empty fingers quietly revealed the grief she was carrying inside. Even Pete’s tattoo on her body was often seen covered with a bandage. But Ariana didn’t stop there. Pete’s pear-cut engagement ring may have disappeared from her life, but Ariana was about to return with a completely different concept of engagement rings, one powerful enough to shock the entire world. The concept was not one, not two, but seven engagement rings. Yes, you heard that right, seven Ariana Grande rings. Story About Seven Ariana Grande Engagement Rings The heartbreak of losing both Pete Davidson and Mac Miller was still heavy in Ariana Grande’s heart. During that difficult phase, the friends who had watched Ariana go through every high and low of her life wanted to help her step back into the world and move forward again. So, they eventually took her to a Tiffany & Co.  And inside Tiffany’s, Ariana did something that would eventually surprise the entire world: she bought seven identical engagement rings. Not for a boyfriend, but for the girlfriends who had stood beside her through every chapter of her life. Some were childhood friends, some were crew members, and some were studio girls who had supported her during her hardest moments. As they walked out of the showroom, one of them jokingly said: “Bitch, this gotta be a song lol.” And that very same day, they all came together and created a hit song, “7 Rings.” Apart from these seven rings, Ariana even gifted one to her mother, one to her grandmother, and another to her video director and editor, Hannah Lux Davis. Soon, Ariana’s seven engagement rings became deeply connected to the identity of her hit song “7 Rings.” Later, Ariana revealed that the song was dedicated to women’s empowerment, and those seven engagement rings proved that love is not limited only to fiancés or romantic relationships. Let’s take a closer look at Ariana Grande's engagement rings for her friends  All About Seven Ariana Grande’s Engagement Rings For Friends These seven identical engagement rings were created by Tiffany & Co. Later, a Tiffany associate, Tony Jabaly, even shared a photo of the seven rings on Instagram. In that picture, it was clearly visible that all of them were solitaire engagement rings with a round diamond. And the round diamond was not chosen randomly. Whenever people imagine an engagement ring, the very first image that usually comes to mind is a classic single round diamond ring.  But these were not just ordinary engagement rings. Ariana’s seven rings gave friendship an entirely new identity. They proved that friendship is no less meaningful than romantic love. Would you also love to gift an engagement ring as a symbol of love to your closest friends or family members, just like Ariana Grande did? If yes, then make sure to explore our round diamond engagement ring collection, where you’ll find a wide variety of designs in different settings and across every price range. Characteristics Of Ariana Grande’s Engagement Rings For Friends Style: Classic solitaire  Stone: Natural diamond Cut: Round brilliant  Metal: Platinum  Brand: Tiffany & Co, New York City Quantity: 7 purchased that afternoon - 10 total, including her mom, grandmother, and video director Value per Ring: Approximately $10,000–$30,000 each (unconfirmed) Given to: Vic, Courtney, Alexa, Tayla, Njomza, Kaydence, and Ariana herself Unique detail: The only rings in this story not given by a romantic partner,  deliberately so Ariana Grande’s Engagement Ring From Dalton Gomez Two years passed. Ariana Grande performed countless concerts, traveled the world on tour, and continued building her career. But without even realizing it, she was quietly falling in love once again. This time, however, there were no massive celebrity headlines, no dramatic tattoos, and no flashy public romance. This time, Ariana was falling for someone far away from the glamour of Hollywood and the fashion world, a man who worked in the luxury real estate business, helping stars find multimillion-dollar homes. His name was Dalton Gomez. Ariana met Dalton while she was searching for a new home in Los Angeles. Within a short time, the two entered a relationship, and by February 2020, they were spotted kissing together at a California bar. No matter how much Ariana tried, she simply could not stay away from love. Pete made Ariana Grande's engagement ring in a hurry, but Dalton was different. He took some time and gave Ariana something truly priceless in the form of an engagement ring, not just his love, but also a piece of Ariana’s childhood memories. In December 2020, Ariana uploaded a series of photos on Instagram. And once again, there it was, a new engagement ring. Her caption read: “forever and then some” The internet instantly did what it does best. Within moments, pictures of the proposal and Ariana Grande's engagement ring were everywhere. People couldn’t stop admiring the stunning oval-and-pearl toi et moi ring that Dalton Gomez had given her. Interesting Story Behind Ariana’s Toi Et Moi Engagement Ring Ariana Grande’s engagement ring from Dalton Gomez is considered truly special. According to popular stories, Ariana’s grandmother once removed the pearl from her grandfather’s tie pin and gave it to Ariana as a protective talisman. Dalton reportedly noticed how meaningful that pearl was to her and deliberately included it in the toi et moi engagement ring. While this detail has never been officially confirmed and remains speculation, the use of a pearl in a toi et moi ring is highly unusual, which is why many fans believe the story could actually be true. Another beautiful feature of Ariana Grande’s engagement ring is the toi et moi design itself. Today, the toi et moi ring is considered among the most romantic engagement ring styles in the world because the two stones symbolize two people coming together as one couple. In Ariana’s engagement ring, many believe the pearl symbolizes Ariana herself, while the oval diamond represents Dalton Gomez. The diamond’s slight tilt toward the pearl creates the feeling that he is gently protecting her. The phrase toi et moi is French and means “you and me.” This iconic ring style is more than 200 years old. Even Napoleon Bonaparte famously gave a toi et moi ring to Joséphine de Beauharnais centuries ago. Why Oval Diamond For Ariana’s Engagement Ring The oval diamond that Dalton Gomez chose has a shape known for beautifully flattering the hand. Its elongated silhouette makes the fingers appear longer, while its 58 facets create a warm, soft brilliance that round diamonds may rival in sparkle, but rarely surpass in intimacy. Instead of being set perfectly upright, the diamond was placed diagonally, breaking the expected geometry of a traditional engagement ring in a way that feels intentional rather than eccentric. The stone almost appears to lean toward the pearl beside it, as if it were protecting it. Characteristics Of Ariana Grande’s Engagement Ring From Dalton Style: Toi et moi  History of style: One of the oldest engagement ring designs in the world  Stone One: Oval-cut diamond, elongated brilliant cut,  Carat Weight: Estimated 5–8 carats Diamond placement: Set at a diagonal angle, tilted toward the pearl.  Stone Two: Pearl, round, white, approximately 5–6mm Metal: Yellow gold  Jeweler: Jack Solow, Solow & Co, New York City Value: Estimated $150,000–$750,000 Unique detail: The only ring built around something that already existed, a pearl carried forward from loss Announcement So, these were the stories and fascinating details behind Ariana Grande’s engagement rings.

Tell me honestly, how many types of ear piercings do you know? Probably just a few,  you may have seen people wearing earrings in many different parts of the ear. Maybe you’ve even had multiple ear piercings yourself.  But did you know that all these ear piercing types have specific names? Behind them, there are stories, history, and even certain rules about which type of earring is made for which kind of piercing. So yes, what I mean to say is that every jewelry style has its own unique language through which people express themselves to the world. Ear piercings also have a language; they convey personality and style through earrings. The reason is simple: no ear piercing means no earring wearing, right? So come on, friends, today let’s explore a guide to popular types of ear piercings, so that the next time you decide to get a piercing, you’ll know exactly which type of ear piercing suits you best.” Standard Lobe Ear Piercing The most common type of ear piercing that most people get is the standard lobe piercing. Standard lobe piercing is the most popular kind because it offers the widest earring compatibility, causes less pain, and, most importantly, is culturally accepted almost everywhere. So, where exactly is a standard lobe piercing done? Placement of Standard Lobe Piercing Regarding placement, a standard lobe piercing is done on the lower part of the ear, where the flesh is soft and thick. One important thing to know is that the piercing is usually placed about 5 to 6 mm inside from the edge of the earlobe.  However, everyone’s ear shape is different, so this measurement can vary according to the size and shape of your ear. The piercer mainly focuses on choosing the perfect spot based on your facial features and ear anatomy. In short, a standard lobe piercing is done on the soft lower part of the ear. One important thing to keep in mind is that a good placement must be perfectly perpendicular to the tissue (at a 90-degree angle). If the angle is slanted, the earring may sit crooked and can create severe pressure bumps during healing. Will Standard Lobe Piercing Suit You? Honestly, based on my personal experience, standard lobe piercing suits almost everyone. In fact, my suggestion would be that if you are getting an ear piercing for the first time in your life, you should start with a standard lobe piercing.  Of course, there is no strict rule that you must begin with this one, but the biggest advantage of a standard lobe piercing is that it suits every profile and style. Another thing is that if you enjoy earring stacking, your stack will feel incomplete without it. In other words, in the journey of ear piercings, having a standard lobe piercing is almost essential. Which Other Piercings Go Best With It? Standard lobe piercing works as a very versatile foundation, so it pairs beautifully with many cartilage and other ear piercings. To enhance and complete your standard lobe look, I would personally suggest combining it with a second lobe piercing and a helix piercing. Jewelry recommendation for standard lobe: Diamond Studs Second Lobe Ear Piercing After the standard lobe piercing, the most common and popular choice is the second lobe piercing. Nowadays, this piercing is very trendy in ear styling. Second lobe piercing is very famous because it blends perfectly with your first lobe piercing, suits almost every profile, and gives you extra styling options. So, let’s see where exactly the second lobe ear piercing is done. Placement of Second Lobe Piercing Second lobe piercing is done exactly beside your standard first lobe piercing, following the curved line of the ear rim. One important thing to know is that according to standard spacing, this piercing is usually placed around 6 to 8 mm away from the first hole so that both earrings do not collide with each other. For the second lobe piercing, the piercer mainly focuses on creating a clean “ladder” or “staircase effect” along the lower line of your ear. Just like the first lobe piercing, this piercing should also be perfectly perpendicular (90-degree angle) to the tissue; the earrings may sit crooked. Will Second Lobe Piercing Suit You? Just like standard lobe piercing, second lobe piercing also suits almost everyone around the world. But my suggestion would be that if you are scared of the pain of cartilage piercings but still want to decorate your ear stylishly, then you can comfortably go for a second lobe piercing. Which Other Piercings Go Best With It? Second lobe piercing itself is a very good secondary building block, so it pairs beautifully with other ear piercings. To enhance and complete your second lobe look, I would personally suggest combining it with a third lobe piercing (to complete the lobe ladder) and a classic helix piercing on the upper ear rim. This combination gives your entire ear a beautiful visual arc and a very balanced look. Jewelry recommendation for the second lobe: Hoop Earring The Universal Cartilage Lifestyle Guide (Must-Read Before You Pierce!)  We understood two basic ear piercing styles, and now we are going to explore some more complex and unusual ear piercing styles. From this point onward, most of the upcoming ear piercing styles will not be done on the fleshy lower ear area,  meaning they won’t be regular lobe piercings. Instead, these piercings will mainly cover the middle ear, upper ear, and inner ear areas. The upcoming ear piercing styles are especially important for people who love earring stacking and enjoy wearing multiple earrings together. With standard and second lobe piercings, we already created the foundation of ear stacking. Now, with the next piercing styles, we will give that stack a much more beautiful and stylish form. But before learning about those piercings, there are a few very important things that you should keep in mind, because they matter a lot. No matter which cartilage piercing you choose, whether it is Helix, Conch, Tragus, Rook, or Snug, these rules remain common for all of them: The Sleep Blueprint (Donut Pillow Strategy) When direct pressure comes on cartilage tissue, blood flow gets restricted, and large irritation bumps can develop. If you are a side sleeper, then instead of using a standard pillow, using a travel or donut pillow for the first 4 to 6 months becomes almost mandatory. Chemical Hazards (The Shower Alert) Your daily shampoo, conditioner, face wash, hairspray, and makeup products contain strong chemicals. For a fresh piercing, these products can act almost like poison. During bathing, it is very important to keep the ear fold clean using sterile water and avoid unnecessary chemical exposure. The “No-Twist” Rule (Strictly No Rotation) In older times, people used to rotate earrings continuously, but according to modern piercing science, doing this tears the newly forming inner skin tissue. Because of that, you should avoid touching or twisting the jewelry unnecessarily. The Downsize Protocol In cartilage piercings, piercers usually use a longer jewelry post at the beginning to accommodate swelling. Once the swelling reduces after around 4 to 6 weeks, it becomes very important to revisit the studio and replace it with a shorter post (downsizing). Otherwise, the jewelry angle may shift and become crooked. Helix Ear Piercing To move above the standard and second lobe piercings into the cartilage zone, the most basic and popular choice is the helix ear piercing. In ear cartilage modifications, this piercing is one of the biggest trends. Helix piercing creates a clean decorative frame with your lower lobes and gives you a modern counter-culture edge look. Placement Of Helix Ear Piercing Helix piercing is done on the upper outer rim of your ear (the curved ridge that you can trace with your finger). This piercing is not done in soft flesh, but in the structural cartilage tissue of the ear. So, the placement height and angle may vary according to the curvature of your ear rim. Lifestyle Suitability & Adjustments for Helix Piercing It is very important to consider your daily habits and routine before getting a helix piercing. Cartilage piercings are slightly demanding, so if you are a side sleeper, then for the first 3 to 4 months, you may need to use a special donut-shaped or travel pillow so that no direct pressure comes on the ear. If your lifestyle includes gymming, running, or a generally active routine, then this piercing will suit you comfortably. But for people involved in active contact sports like boxing, rugby, or martial arts, this piercing may not be ideal because the risk of direct ear collision is much higher. Which Other Piercings Go Best With It? Helix piercing itself is a very versatile foundation building block, so it pairs beautifully with multiple inner ear options. To enhance and complete your cartilage look, I would personally suggest combining it with a forward helix piercing (to create a natural visual arc framing the upper ear) and a tragus piercing on the inner side. Jewelry recommendation for standard lobe: Climber Earring Forward Helix Ear Piercing To move toward the forward line of the upper ear rim, directly beside the face, one of the most dynamic and eye-catching choices is the forward helix piercing. In recent times, this piercing has become extremely popular in ear curation and micro-jewelry grids.  Forward helix piercing is very unique because it directly frames your face and gives a completely different look compared to a regular helix piercing. Placement Of Forward Helix Ear Piercing Forward helix piercing is done on the very front portion of your ear rim - the curved ridge that connects directly with the face and sideburn area, exactly above the tragus. This placement is done on a very precise and narrow cartilage strip. So, for this type of piercing, I would strongly suggest going only to an experienced and trustworthy piercer. Will Forward Helix Piercing Suit You? Before getting a forward helix piercing, it is very important to consider your hair care habits and daily accessories. Since the forward helix sits very close to the face, if you keep long open hair or follow a daily beauty and makeup routine, then while washing your face or brushing your hair, there will always be a risk of snagging in this area. In simple words, if your hands or accessories like earphones and glasses frequently touch your ears, then you should probably avoid this piercing. But if you can manage all that and want a very funky type of ear decoration, then you can confidently go for a forward helix piercing. Pairing Combination For Forward Helix Ear Piercing Forward helix piercing itself is a very premium anchoring spot, so it pairs beautifully with structural ear styling. To enhance and complete your forward look, I would suggest combining it with a classic outer helix piercing. Jewelry recommendation for standard lobe: Solitaire Earring Tragus and Anti-Tragus Ear Piercing Tragus and anti-tragus ear piercings are very trendy ear piercing types in earring stacking. These two piercings stay in opposite directions from each other and create an effect as if two earrings are wrapping the ear in one straight line from both sides. Yes, these piercings are definitely funky, so people who prefer simplicity may not want to consider them. Placement of Tragus and Anti-Tragus Ear Piercing Both of these piercings frame the ear canal area. Tragus piercing is done exactly above the entrance of the ear canal, on the small, thick cartilage flap present there. On the exact opposite directional line, anti-tragus piercing is done on the rigid cartilage fold located just above the standard earlobe. Will Tragus and Anti-Tragus Suit You? Look, this piercing combination definitely looks stylish, but it may force you to make certain compromises. If you are very fond of music and frequently use earphones, then you should seriously rethink this combination.  Another thing is that for beginners, this piercing combo can feel slightly irritating. If you already have experience with lobe piercings and have been wearing ear piercings for around 3–4 years, only then should you consider this combination. And yes, personally, I also think people who have a habit of side sleeping should stay away from these piercings. Which Other Piercings Go Best With This Combo? Tragus and anti-tragus together create a very striking and high-end anchor spot, so they pair beautifully with horizontal ear styling. To enhance and complete this look, you should go with a standard lobe piercing. Jewelry recommendation for standard lobe: Stud Earring Daith Ear Piercing In ear cartilage modifications, one of the most hidden, complex, and beautiful choices is the daith piercing. In recent times, this piercing has become very popular in modern ear curation and structural aesthetics. Daith piercing is very unique because it sits in the deep bowl area of the ear center, giving a completely different look compared to regular outer rim piercings, and it adds an absolute royal yet edgy masterpiece vibe to your delicate ring styling. Placement of Daith Ear Piercing Daith piercing is done exactly above the center bowl area (conch area) of your ear, on the unique upward inner cartilage fold that sits above the ear canal opening. This placement happens on the deep horizontal ridge located just above the ear canal entrance. Can You Have a Daith Ear Piercing? If you regularly attend corporate calls, then while wearing over-ear headphones, the cushion design should be wide enough to avoid pressure on the piercing area. One good lifestyle advantage of this piercing is that it stays deeply tucked inside the ear, so unlike outer helix or lobe piercings, the risk of direct side-sleeping pressure or hair snagging is much lower. In short, if you can carefully avoid inner ear canal devices for a few months, then this piercing can fit into your lifestyle quite comfortably without causing much mechanical tissue damage. Which Other Piercings Go Best With It? Daith piercing itself is a very premium and central visual anchor, so it pairs beautifully with peripheral ear styling. My suggestion would be to combine a standard lobe ear piercing with a daith piercing for a very balanced and stylish look. Rook Ear Piercing Just like daith ear piercing decorates the inner upper cartilage area of your ear, rook ear piercing decorates the upper outer cartilage area of the ear. Since it is placed more toward the outer side, the jewelry in a rook piercing stays slightly more visible. One more thing is that rook ear piercing is often considered more fashionable compared to daith piercing. Placement of Rook Ear Piercing Rook piercing is done above the center bowl area (conch) of your ear, on the unique horizontal cartilage fold located exactly beside the forward helix area. Will Rook Ear Piercing Suit You? If your lifestyle includes daily use of styling glasses, active sunglasses, or heavy industrial face masks, then you will need to be careful that the strings or frame do not snag with the upper ball of the rook jewelry while wearing or removing them. Another major lifestyle factor is phone hygiene. While talking on the phone with the device pressed directly against the ear canal area, you must keep the screen crystal clear so bacteria do not transfer into the fresh piercing wound. Which Other Piercings Go Best With It? Rook piercing itself is a very luxurious inner visual architecture anchor, so it pairs beautifully with lower and outer ear piercings. My personal suggestion would be to combine it with a second lobe piercing. Jewelry recommendation for a death and rook piercing: Hoop Earring Snug Ear Piercing (Anti-Helix Piercing) In ear cartilage modifications, one of the most advanced, rare, and absolute elite choices is the snug piercing, also known as the anti-helix piercing. In the body modification community, this piercing is considered very unique because very few people around the world can successfully get and properly maintain this modification. Placement of Snug or Anti-Helix Ear Piercing Snug piercing is done exactly beside the ear canal bowl (conch area), on the vertical cartilage ridge located between the outer rim and the inner bowl of the ear. This piercing is placed horizontally through one of the thickest, tightest, and most complex double-sided cartilage strips in the entire ear. Lifestyle Suitability & Adjustments for Snug Piercing Compared to some other ear piercings, this piercing usually does not create much irritation while wearing earphones. You mainly just need to make sure that no direct pressure comes from the outer side of the ear; irritation may develop on the back side of the ear. The greatest difficulty usually comes while wearing helmets because they can create continuous pressure on the piercing area. And yes, if you sleep on your side, you may also experience friction and discomfort, so these are important things to keep in mind before getting a snug piercing. Which Other Piercings Go Best With It? Snug piercing pairs beautifully with peripheral ear styling. To enhance your look, you can combine it with a second lobe piercing to create a natural rising vertical chain, along with a forward helix piercing on the upper front rim. Jewelry recommendation for snug ear piercing:   Colored diamond stud Conch Ear Piercing In the center area of the ear, one of the most decorative and fancy ear piercings is the conch piercing. Conch piercing is very famous because it covers the main inner bowl area of the ear and gives a completely different look compared to regular outer rim cartilage modifications. Placement of Conch Ear Piercing Conch piercing is done in the largest cup-like hollow bowl area at the center of your ear, whose name comes from the marine conch shell. One important thing to know is that this placement happens on the thick inner cartilage tissue floor located behind the ear canal entrance. There are mainly two variations of this piercing: Inner Conch: Done in the center portion of the ear bowl, where you can wear a clean flat stud jewelry style. Outer Conch: Done on the upper flat portion of the ear bowl, just below the forward helix area. Which Other Piercings Go Best With It? Conch piercing itself is a very powerful and central visual masterpiece, so it pairs beautifully with peripheral ear styling. I would definitely suggest combining a conch piercing with a standard lobe piercing for a very balanced and attractive look. Industrial Piercing Industrial piercing, also known as scaffold piercing, is one of the most specialized ear piercings. This piercing is unique because it connects two different holes in the ear using a single jewelry bar. Compared to regular single-point piercings, it creates a completely different mechanical geometry and gives your styling profile a very powerful, designer-like master vibe. Placement of Industrial Piercing Industrial piercing is done on the upper cartilage area of the ear, where a single straight barbell connects the forward helix and outer helix holes in a cross direction. This piercing involves some of the most complex visual angle engineering in the entire ear. Which Other Piercings Go Best With It? Industrial piercing itself is a very bold and powerful visual anchor, so it pairs beautifully with lower ear counter-styling. My personal suggestion would be to pair it with a standard lobe piercing for a clean foundational balance, along with a conch piercing in the center bowl area. Orbital Ear Piercing Orbital piercing is very unique because it connects two separate holes in the ear using a single hoop jewelry piece. Compared to regular single-point piercings, it creates a completely different structural depth and gives your styling profile a high-fashion illusion vibe. Placement of Orbital Piercing Orbital piercing is mainly done horizontally on the soft lower earlobe tissue. However, if the ear anatomy is suitable, it can also be designed geometrically on the upper helix cartilage rim. This ear piercing style uses a single ring to hold two separate holes together, because of which precise micro-caliper measurements become necessary. Which Other Piercings Go Best With It? Orbital piercing itself is a very sleek and contemporary master loop anchor, so it pairs beautifully with clean facial-line styling. In my opinion, you should combine orbital ear piercing with a minimalist flat piercing on the upper plateau area and a tragus stud near the face profile. Jewelry recommendation for orbital ear piercing: Butterfly Chain Earrings Flat and Scapha Ear Piercing In upper ear cartilage modifications, one of the broadest, most visible, and artistic choices is the flat piercing, also anatomically known as the scapha piercing. In recent times, this piercing has become extremely popular in intricate ear curation projects and micro-stud constellation designs. Flat piercing is considered very specialized because it covers the upper inner flat plate area of the ear. Placement of Flat & Scapha Piercing Flat piercing is done on the largest flat plateau cartilage area of the upper ear - the horizontal scapha region located exactly between the outer curled helix rim and the inner anti-helix fold. One important thing to know is that this placement treats the entire upper flat area of the ear like an open canvas, where multiple piercings can also be arranged very easily. Which Other Piercings Go Best With It? Flat piercing itself is a very prominent front visual anchor, so it pairs beautifully with horizontal ear geometry. I would suggest combining a flat piercing with a conch piercing in the center bowl area, along with consecutive multiple lobe piercings at the bottom for a very balanced and stylish ear setup. Jewelry recommendation for flat ear piercing: Daisy earring Transverse Lobe Ear Piercing In lower soft tissue ear modifications, one of the boldest choices is the transverse lobe piercing. This piercing is very specialized because it is completely different from conventional front-to-back piercings. Instead, it creates a hidden horizontal line inside the earlobe flesh, giving a very uncommon designer-style look compared to regular lobe piercings. Placement of Transverse Lobe Piercing Talking about the placement, transverse lobe piercing is done through the inner margins of the lower soft earlobe tissue. But unlike a normal lobe piercing, where the needle passes from front to back, in this piercing, the needle passes horizontally from side to side through the lobe. Which Other Piercings Go Best With It? Transverse lobe piercing itself is a very striking statement piece, so it pairs beautifully with upper vertical ear modifications. To enhance and complete the overall layout, I would suggest combining it with an inner rook piercing or a minimalist forward helix stud near the face profile. The Golden Healing Rule: How Long to Wait?  You may have gotten your ear piercing done, but you still might not know how long it actually takes to completely heal, or when you can safely remove your earrings for some time without the hole closing up.  And this is important, because many times earrings may start irritating you, so you remove them for a few days and later try wearing them again, but the piercing is still not fully healed. From the outside, it may look healed, but internally, the tissue is still repairing. To avoid making this mistake, it is important to understand how much time each ear piercing actually takes to heal. One simple rule to remember is this: the higher you move from the soft skin area of the ear toward the cartilage zone, the longer the healing time becomes. Standard and Second Lobe piercings are the fastest-healing piercings in the entire list. They usually take only around 6 to 8 weeks to settle externally. But apart from these, almost all popular cartilage piercings,  such as Helix, Conch, Tragus, Daith, and Rook, need at least 6 to 9 months to become completely stable and internally mature. For complex and double-layered styles like Industrial and Snug piercings, the recovery duration can even extend up to 12 to 18 months. In short, even though the skin surface may look healed within 2 months, you still need to keep at least 6 months of patience before changing or removing the jewelry for longer periods. Talking About Caring (Aftercare) When it comes to aftercare, the first 2 to 3 months are extremely critical for keeping your ear piercing safe and healthy. If you do not follow a proper routine, then just like in old times, the chances of infection, swelling, or permanent cartilage bumps become much higher. What You MUST Do  Twice a day, clean the area around the piercing using a sterile saline spray containing 0.9% Sodium Chloride. After spraying, gently tap-dry the wound area using a clean paper towel. Regular cloth towels may contain germs and bacteria. During the initial healing weeks, keep long hair tied back so that hair strands do not get tangled with the jewelry lock. Once the swelling reduces, visit your piercer within 4 to 6 weeks and get the jewelry bar shortened or downsized on time. What You MUST NOT Do  Homemade salt water or products like Dettol and Savlon can act almost like poison on a fresh piercing.  Do not move, rotate, or twist the earring unnecessarily.  Avoid sleeping on the side with the fresh piercing.  For the first 2 to 3 months, stay away from beaches, swimming pools, and lake water. Frequently Asked Questions How much does ear piercing cost? Ear piercing costs usually depend on the piercing type, studio quality, jewelry material, and location. Simple lobe piercings are affordable, while advanced cartilage or industrial piercings generally cost much more. Which is the most painful ear piercing? Snug and industrial piercings are considered among the most painful because they pass through thick cartilage tissue. Pain tolerance differs for everyone, but these piercings usually feel more intense and heal more slowly. Which ear piercing is the most comfortable for daily life? Standard lobe piercing is the most comfortable for daily life because it heals faster, causes less irritation, suits almost everyone, and rarely interferes with sleeping, headphones, or regular activities. Which jewelry is perfect for industrial ear piercing? Straight barbell jewelry made from implant-grade titanium is considered perfect for industrial piercing. It maintains proper alignment between both holes, reduces irritation, and supports safer long-term healing of the piercing. Which ear piercing should men have? For men, helix, lobe, industrial, and conch piercings are among the best choices. These styles look masculine, stylish, and versatile, while also pairing well with both minimalist and bold fashion aesthetics.

Some people wear it for its appearance, while others believe it offers protection against jealousy, negative energy, and bad intentions.

Let’s see which hand you should choose for wearing an evil eye bracelet according to cultural and traditional beliefs. Wearing an Evil Eye Bracelet on the left hand  In the Yin and Yang concept of Eastern philosophy, the left hand is considered Yin. Eastern philosophy explains that energy enters your body through the left hand, which means the left hand is seen as the receiver.

This is not considered something to be sad about; in fact, according to beliefs, you should feel happy about it. You might think, “How can someone feel happy if something breaks?” But according to traditional beliefs, when the evil eye absorbs and consumes all the negative energies that were affecting you, it eventually breaks. This means that the purpose of its connection with you has been fulfilled. In simple words, the bracelet used up its spiritual energy while protecting you. So, if it broke or got separated from you, it is believed to have happened for a reason. Now the question comes, what should you do after the evil eye bracelet breaks? There are certain traditional practices and rules related to it, which are listed below. Do not fix it, re-string it Because it shattered while absorbing toxic, envious energy, the physical materials are now permanently saturated with that negativity. Trying to wear it again is like putting dirty, toxic energy back onto your wrist, which completely defeats its protective purpose. Dispose of it in nature Return it to the Earth: Bury the broken pieces in the soil outside, far away from your home, allowing nature to neutralize the energy.  Flowing Water: If the bracelet is made of pure glass or an eco-friendly gemstone, you can drop it into a moving body of water, like a river or the ocean, to wash the energy away.  How to Charge Your Evil Eye Bracelet  So yes, by now you must have decided which color of evil eye bracelet will be the most suitable for you and your life’s purpose. We sincerely hope that you wear an evil eye bracelet, protect your life from negative energy and evil intentions, and achieve everything you truly desire in life. But friends, as we understood earlier, the evil eye bracelet is considered a very sacred and symbolic talisman. So, just buying and wearing it is not enough; taking proper care of it is equally important. Because this object is believed to work with energy, it should be recharged from time to time so that it can remove negative energy at its full potential and attract positive energy more effectively. So, how can you charge your evil eye bracelet? Let’s understand through the steps given below. Step 1: Cleanse the Absorbed Energy First  Before charging your bracelet with fresh energy, it is important to first remove the jealousy and negative energy stored inside it. To clear the negative energy absorbed by the bracelet, follow the steps given below. Light a stick of sage, incense, or Palo Santo. Pass your bracelet completely through the rising smoke for around 30 seconds. Place your bracelet in a small glass dish, then keep that dish inside a larger bowl filled with raw sea salt or rock salt overnight. Step 2: Recharge the Talisman  After cleansing it, the next step is to recharge your bracelet. To recharge it, use the methods mentioned below.  Place your cleansed bracelet on a windowsill or outside overnight during a full moon. Leave your bracelet in direct sunlight for around 10 to 15 minutes. The sun’s fiery energy is believed to burn away any remaining impurities and fill the bracelet with active, radiant strength. Place your bracelet directly on top of a selenite crystal slab or charging plate for a few hours. Why You Should Understand Symbolic Jewelry Before Wearing It I believe that whenever you wear any kind of symbolic jewelry, you should first understand its history and the meaning hidden behind it. That way, you can truly understand its purpose and benefits.  Because wearing a talisman without knowing its significance is merely showing off style, and sacred or talismanic jewelry is not something we wear only for fashion. Let’s learn how the evil eye concept came into existence before you buy your evil eye bracelet. The Birth of the Evil Eye in Mesopotamia It is believed that in the fertile valleys between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, the Sumerians built the world’s first urban civilization, which we today know as the Mesopotamian civilization, located in present-day Iraq.  At that time, the atmosphere there was highly unpredictable, with sudden floods, violent dust storms, and plagues being very common. To protect themselves from these repeated natural disasters and unknown dangers, people developed the concept of the evil eye. The Sumerian Belief: Eyes as Energy Projectors There is also a very interesting belief connected to it. The Sumerians believed that the eye was not just a passive receiver of light, but also an active projector of energy. If a neighbor looked at your healthy children or flourishing crops with intense jealousy, that jealousy could travel through their gaze like a physical beam and poison the target. How the Evil Eye Brought Mental Comfort In those times, people lacked modern medical treatments and scientific understanding. If a child suddenly died from a fever, or crops stopped growing properly in the fields, people felt that something intentional was behind it.  Blaming the “envious eye” gave them mental peace and an explanation for their suffering. In this way, the Sumerians strongly believed in the power of the evil eye. The Journey of the Evil Eye to Egypt As time passed, trade and connectivity between civilizations increased, and eventually the concept of the evil eye reached Egypt. The Egyptians then created their own mythical stories and beliefs surrounding it.  Later, great philosophers like Plato and Socrates also gave this concept a certain direction and credibility. But who made the evil eye famous in the modern world? Let’s find out. The Rise of the Evil Eye in the Modern World Socrates and Plato recognized the concept of the evil eye and gave it a certain identity, but in modern times, where many people consider such things to be superstition, celebrities and jewelry designers played a huge role in turning this superstition into a trend.  For example, in the early 1990s, Ileana Makri, a Greek jewelry designer, brought high-end evil eye jewelry onto the global stage. Apart from her, Aaron Basha, who is known for luxury lifestyle jewelry, also introduced evil eye bracelets. Not only jewelry designers, but famous Hollywood actors and singers like Madonna, Britney Spears, Gigi Hadid, Kim Kardashian, and Meghan Markle have also been seen wearing evil eye bracelets and other evil eye jewelry.  Overall, evil eye jewelry, especially evil eye bracelets, became widely popular because they were endorsed by famous personalities. Today, millions of people like you and me wear evil eye bracelets and believe they benefit from them as well. But here, one question should come to your mind: why should you wear an evil eye bracelet specifically? Why not a necklace or ring? Let’s understand that. Should You Wear an Evil Eye Bracelet? According to traditional belief, the evil eye works only when it can “stare back” at the other person’s negative energy or jealous gaze and deflect that negativity away. Now, we use our hands to push things away, greet people, express emotions, and perform many other activities. In simple words, our hands are always visible to others. Not just the evil eye,  you may also know about the Hamsa hand, which carries a very similar meaning and symbolism. On the other hand, necklaces and earrings are worn around the neck and ears, which are often covered by clothes or hair. So how can the evil eye effectively do its job if it remains hidden? This is the reason why most people prefer wearing an evil eye bracelet, and why you should wear one too. Evil Eye Bracelet vs Other Evil Eye Jewelry: Which Is Right for You? As you learned earlier, the evil eye bracelet is considered more effective than most other types of evil eye jewelry. But at the same time, it is also true that in modern times, jewelry is not worn only for meaning and protection. Nowadays, people want good looks along with meaning and symbolism, and I’m sure you feel the same way. You probably also want your evil eye jewelry to not only protect you, but also make you look stylish and beautiful. Because of that, you can wear the evil eye in many different forms, such as: Rings Earrings Necklaces Which type of evil eye jewelry will suit you the best depends on your personal preference, lifestyle, and purpose. And yes, rings, necklaces, and earrings are not only for looks, but they are also believed to provide different kinds of symbolic benefits and protection. Evil Eye Necklaces  It is believed that the evil eye necklace works with the solar plexus and heart chakras. Protecting these two chakras, it helps protect your inner confidence, emotions, and emotional balance. Evil Eye Ring We use our fingers to control things, create things, and show direction. Because of this, when the evil eye is worn as a ring on the hand, it is believed to protect the things you physically create, write, touch, or manifest. It is also considered a powerful shield against people who try to micro-manage you or cross your personal boundaries. Evil Eye Earrings When evil eye earrings are worn on the ears, it is believed that they protect the mind from gossip, lies, and negative rumors. They are said to filter out toxic words and negative conversations before they can affect your subconscious mind. The Evil Eye Across Cultures: One Symbol, Many Stories  Whenever you start doubting whether things like the evil eye really work or not, just remember one thing: the evil eye is considered important in so many cultures around the world. If something receives recognition on such a massive scale across different civilizations and traditions, then there must be some reason behind its influence and significance. And in the end, as I said earlier, not everything can be explained through science alone. Some things exist beyond scientific understanding and are deeply connected with belief, energy, tradition, and human experience. Let’s see how different cultures around the world use evil eye jewelry and what it symbolizes in their traditions. Turkey and the Middle East (The Nazar)  The symbol that most of us recognize today as the evil eye, the blue and white eye with a black dot in the center,  actually comes from Turkish tradition. It is one of the most popular and globally recognized forms of the evil eye symbol. India (Buri Nazar) In India as well, similar beliefs have existed for generations. Mothers often apply a small black tika on the forehead or behind the ears of young children, mainly to protect them from buri nazar, or the evil eye. Italy (The Malocchio) They test for it by dropping olive oil into water. To protect themselves, they wear a Cornicello, a little charm that looks like a red chili pepper or a horn, and carry it in their pockets.   Latin America (The Mal de Ojo)  To cure the baby, a healer will rub a raw egg all over the baby's body. The egg acts like a magnet, sucking out the bad energy. Then, they crack the egg into a glass of water to see if it looks like an eye.  Metal For Evil Eye Bracelet Sterling Silver (The Ultimate Shield): Sterling silver is universally considered the best metal for evil eye jewelry due to its lunar energy. Yellow Gold (The Radiator of Strength): Yellow gold connects your talisman directly to the fiery, active energy of the sun. Rose Gold (The Heart and Relationship Guard): Rose gold is a blend of traditional gold and copper, giving it a gentle, loving frequency. Copper and Brass (The Heavy Grounders): These raw, earthy metals have been used to create protective amulets for thousands of years.

Divorce rings are becoming a powerful new trend. You have come out of tough times. Divorce or separation from someone we truly loved is always difficult. But what has happened cannot be changed, and you simply cannot stay stuck in the past. You have endured dark winter nights; now it is your time to rediscover yourself, regain joy, and bring natural laughter back into your life. An engagement ring symbolizes becoming "we" instead of "me." Now, it is time to remind yourself and the world that you are enough on your own with a divorce ring. Let's learn together how a divorce ring is helping separated individuals walk on the path of self-realization. What Is a Divorce Ring? Heal Yourself With Jewelry As you embrace an engagement ring to begin a new chapter of life with another person, a divorce ring is also about embracing something meaningful, but not a union. Instead, it is about embracing yourself after the union has ended. A divorce ring serves as a reminder of your worth, your strength, and your ability to move forward despite heartbreak. It is not just jewelry; it is a healing symbol that helps rebuild self-confidence, restore self-belief, and encourage individuality. Although it is not an officially recognized jewelry style, it is an invention of modern people for modern relationships. Divorce and separation have long been viewed as something negative throughout history, but times are changing. Today, many people see divorce as an opportunity to grow in life, discover new dimensions of themselves, and explore new aspects of the world. In many ways, the divorce ring symbolizes the cultural shift - from shame to self-celebration. The Three Types of Divorce Ring Journeys - Which One Is Yours? Different people have their own way of creating a divorce ring because there are many factors to consider. For some, separation is so tragic that they do not want to keep any sign of the relationship. For others, it is simply a part of life, while for some, it becomes the beginning of self-discovery and personal growth. People create divorce rings according to how they view divorce in their own personal context. Most commonly, there are three types of divorce ring journeys that we notice today. Transforming What Was Into What Is Many people struggle with depression, anxiety, and emotional isolation after separation. A divorce ring is not a medicine that can cure emotional pain. Still, much like a birthstone or a personal talisman, it can become something to hold onto as you rebuild. Not everyone experiences divorce as a painful or tragic phase. For some people, it simply marks the end of one chapter and the beginning of another. However, many still find themselves wondering what to do with their existing wedding or engagement ring. While some choose to return it to their former partner, others prefer to keep it and transform its meaning instead of discarding it. This is where the idea of transforming an engagement or wedding ring into a divorce ring becomes deeply symbolic. Some replace a white diamond with a black diamond to represent strength and rebirth. Others redesign a toi et moi ring by removing one stone, or convert a continuous band into an open-band design to symbolize freedom and change. There are countless creative ways to transform an old engagement ring into a divorce ring, turning a symbol of the past into something that reflects a new identity and a new beginning. Buying Something Entirely New - On Your Own Terms People who go through a healthy separation based on mutual understanding often see their engagement or wedding ring as something that no longer holds emotional value. With the beginning of a new phase in life, they prefer something completely new — a ring that has no connection to the past. Instead of holding onto old memories, they choose jewelry that reflects who they are now, not who they used to be. Among all three types of divorce ring journeys, this group usually shows the highest purchase intent because they are emotionally ready to invest in a fresh beginning. Wearing What Was Yours All Along Not every divorce ring story starts with the engagement ring. Some people were given jewelry during the relationship - rings, pieces they genuinely loved - that were always truly theirs in spirit, even when things were shared. After separation, they choose to reclaim that piece and wear it differently. On a different finger. On the other hand. In a new setting. This third journey is about reclaiming something you already own. The ring does not change. The meaning does. And sometimes, that quiet act of rewearing something on your own terms is the most powerful statement of all. Why the Divorce Ring Is In Trend The rise of divorce rings is not a coincidence; it is the result of changing social structures, the influence of digital media, and a growing culture of self-worth that no longer asks permission to exist. Digital Media Effect On social media, conversations about breakups and divorce are becoming normalized. You see more and more content about healing journeys, glow-ups, and self-love. Divorce rings are one of the products that naturally fit into this self-care content culture. When someone posts a photo of their new ring with the caption "this one is for me," it resonates deeply with people who are going through the same thing in silence. Celebrity Influence Another reason is celebrities. When famous people do something different, it quickly becomes a trend. Many celebrities have openly admitted to wearing divorce rings after separation, which ignited a worldwide conversation around rings specifically associated with personal reinvention. Individualism The trend is also closely connected with women's financial independence and self-purchasing culture. More women today are buying luxury jewelry for themselves rather than waiting for jewelry to be gifted through relationships. The divorce ring is, in many ways, the most personal jewelry purchase a person can make — because the only person it needs to impress is the one wearing it. Celebrity Who Ignited Divorce Ring Trend Emily Ratajkowski commissioned jeweler Alison Lou to split her toi et moi engagement ring into two separate solitaire rings to symbolize "one from two" after her separation from Sebastian Bear-McClard. "The rings represent my own personal evolution," she told Vogue. "I don't think a woman should be stripped of her diamonds just because she's losing a man." Brooks Nader debuted a striking nine-carat pear-shaped diamond ring on a minimalist gold band after her separation, wearing it as a bold statement of confidence and independence. "Why should guys have all the fun?" she told People. "This is my divorce ring." Princess Diana unknowingly inspired the concept of the divorce ring. After her divorce from Prince Charles, she frequently wore a large aquamarine cocktail ring that later became a benchmark for symbolic separation jewelry. That ring became so iconic that it now belongs to her son Harry's wife, Meghan, who has worn it as its own chapter of meaning. Jennifer Lopez is also known for reinventing her jewelry style immediately after breakups and separations, often sparking conversations around post-relationship symbolism, self-reinvention, and luxury jewelry culture. What Your Divorce Ring Gemstone Says About You: A Complete Guide to Every Option  What Your Divorce Ring Gemstone Says About You For centuries, people have worn different gemstones for different purposes. Although the meanings of gemstones may change according to culture, they have always symbolized something deeper for humanity. Just like that, the gemstone you choose for your divorce ring also carries a predefined meaning and purpose. Different gemstones symbolize different emotions and messages in a divorce ring. Some represent healing and peace, while others symbolize strength, independence, confidence, or rebirth after heartbreak. So, before planning your divorce ring, it is important to understand which gemstone would be the perfect match according to what you are trying to convey through your ring. For the person who chose Power A black diamond ring or an onyx divorce ring is perfect for people who tend to emerge stronger from setbacks. For the person who is healing with intention Moonstone, amethyst, or pearl are perfect for those who are focusing on emotional healing and inner peace after separation. For the person who is ready to grow Emeralds have been worn for growth, renewal, and transformation. A person choosing an emerald divorce ring sees separation not as an ending, but as an opportunity for personal evolution. For the person embracing a new cycle Opals and sapphires symbolize change, transition, and new beginnings. These stones are ideal for someone who is fully ready to leave the past behind. For the person seeking clarity after the storm White diamonds and clear quartz symbolize clarity, truth, and self-awareness. They reflect someone who has finally found emotional understanding after confusion, heartbreak, or chaos in a relationship. For the person already in the next chapter Moissanite or minimalist solitaire rings often appeal to people who no longer want to carry emotional attachment from the past. For those who value wisdom over everything Sapphires are connected with wisdom, maturity, and emotional intelligence. Sapphire divorce rings symbolize a person who has learned valuable lessons through love, loss, and life experience. Which Finger Should You Wear a Divorce Ring On? Wearing a divorce ring is not a traditional practice like wearing engagement rings, wedding rings, or birthstone rings. The good thing about a divorce ring is its flexibility; it is completely your choice whether you want to wear one or not. Unlike traditional rings, there are no strict rules. However, different fingers can still symbolize different meanings depending on the message you want to express. If you want to show commitment to yourself and personal growth, wear the ring on your ring finger. The middle finger represents boldness and resilience. Wearing a divorce ring on this finger can symbolize your strength and ability to move forward. Wearing a divorce ring on the index finger represents confidence, leadership, and self-direction. It shows that you are fully in control of your life. Wearing it on the pinky finger is unusual, but it symbolizes freedom and self-expression. Right Hand vs. Left Hand Traditionally, women wear engagement and wedding rings on the left hand, while men often wear them on the right hand. Since a divorce ring symbolizes the opposite of marriage or engagement, many people choose to wear it on the opposite hand. But again, there is no rule here. The hand and finger you choose should feel right to you — and that instinct is usually correct. Divorce Ring Styles and Settings - Finding the Design That Feels Like You Frankly, you can wear any style of ring after a divorce; that is exactly what it symbolizes: freedom. You are free to wear anything you like because there are no preset rules for divorce rings, unlike engagement rings, which traditionally feature a large gemstone in the center, or wedding rings, which usually have a continuous diamond band. With divorce rings, you are free to choose anything. However, it is better to choose a ring that represents your thoughts, beliefs, and personal journey after divorce. That is what truly makes sense. Solitaire rings for individuality and self-focus. Black diamond rings for power, transformation, independence, and emotional rebirth. Open band rings for freedom and emotional detachment from a relationship. Resizing your toi et moi ring into two solitaire rings for transformation and personal evolution. Signet rings with engraved initials for personal motivation or empowering words. Stackable rings symbolize growth and different phases of life. Who Legally Keeps the Engagement Ring After a Divorce? This is one of the most common questions people have when a marriage ends, and the answer is not as simple as most people expect. In most countries and states, an engagement ring is considered a conditional gift — given on the condition that the marriage takes place. If both parties went through with the wedding, the ring legally becomes the recipient's property. What happens to it after a divorce is then a matter of divorce settlement, not a pre-set legal rule. In practice, most divorcing couples work this out privately. If the ring was a family heirloom from the other partner's side, it is often returned out of respect. If it was purchased specifically for the recipient, it usually stays with them. A few things worth knowing: In most U.S. states: the ring belongs to the person who received it once the wedding has taken place. It is treated as marital property in some states and separate property in others, which affects whether it is considered during asset division. In the U.K.: An engagement ring is generally considered an outright gift and belongs to the recipient, regardless of who ended the engagement or marriage. The most important thing: If you are unsure about the legal status of your ring in your specific situation, speak with a family law attorney in your country or state. A thirty-minute conversation can save you months of uncertainty. Once that question is settled, you can focus on what really matters, deciding what you want this ring to mean for you next. How to Redesign Your Existing Ring Into a Divorce Ring - Step by Step Many people want to transform their engagement or wedding ring but have no idea where to start. The process is simpler than most people think, and the result can be genuinely stunning. Here is how it works. Step 1: Decide What You Want to Keep Before you speak to a jeweler, spend some time deciding which elements of the original ring you want to carry forward. Is it the diamond itself? The gold? Both? Neither? If the stone has sentimental value, even if it is separate from the marriage, most people choose to keep it and simply change the setting, the metal, or both. If you want a complete break, the stone can be sold and the proceeds used toward something entirely new. Step 2: Find the Right Custom Jeweler Not every jeweler does custom redesign work. Look for someone who has a portfolio of redesigned and repurposed pieces, not just new ring sales. Ask to see before and after examples. A good custom jeweler will listen more than they talk in the first consultation. At Diagaa, we offer custom redesign consultations where you can share your original ring, your vision, and your budget, and we will show you what is possible before you commit to anything. Step 3: Choose Your New Design Direction This is the most personal step. Some of the most popular transformation choices are: Resetting the original stone into a completely different style, from a halo to a solitaire, from a band to an open setting Splitting a toi et moi ring into two separate rings, keeping one and gifting the other Changing the metal, from white gold to yellow gold, or from yellow gold to rose gold, completely changes the emotional feel of the piece Adding a new stone alongside the original to create a two-stone ring with new meaning Converting a band into a stacker by resizing and reshaping it into thinner rings that can be worn independently Step 4: Understand the Timeline Custom redesign work typically takes four to six weeks from final approval to delivery. If you need the ring sooner, be upfront about that in your first conversation. A good jeweler will tell you honestly what is achievable. Step 5: Wear It With Intention When the ring comes back to you, it will look different. But more importantly, it will feel different. Decide which finger you want to wear it on, and why. That small decision, conscious and deliberate, is the final step in transforming what the ring means. How Much Does a Divorce Ring Cost? There is no single answer to this, because a divorce ring can cost anything from almost nothing to several thousand dollars, depending on the path you choose. Here is a practical breakdown to help you plan. Redesigning an Existing Ring Resetting or redesigning an existing ring is almost always the most affordable route because the most expensive part, the stone, is already paid for. Simple resetting (same stone, new setting): $200 – $800, depending on the complexity of the new design Metal change (melting down and recasting in a new metal): $300 – $1,200 Full custom redesign (new setting, new design, same stone): $500 – $2,500 Splitting a toi et moi into two rings: $400 – $1,500 depending on the original ring's complexity Buying Something Entirely New If you are starting fresh, the cost depends entirely on the stone and metal you choose. Lab-grown diamond solitaire in yellow gold: $600 – $3,000 Colored diamond ring (sapphire, emerald, moissanite): $400 – $2,500 Black diamond statement ring: $500 – $2,000 Custom engraved signet or band: $300 – $1,500 A Note on Budget and Meaning The price of a divorce ring says nothing about its significance. Some of the most meaningful ones are simple, modest, and quiet. The meaning comes from the intention behind wearing it, not from the carat weight. If budget is a concern, a lab-grown diamond or moissanite center stone gives you the look of a high-value ring at a fraction of the natural diamond price. And at Diagaa, we offer custom design services across a wide range of budgets. Fill out our custom design form and tell us what you have in mind. We will work with you from there. Choose a Divorce Ring That Reflects Your New Chapter Divorce is not an easy phase of life to go through, and it is something we would never wish upon anyone.

Whatever your journey may look like, choosing the right divorce ring can become a meaningful reminder of the life you want to create moving forward. Today, many celebrities and modern individuals openly wear divorce rings as symbols of healing, confidence, individuality, and new beginnings.

Taylor Swift engagement ring became the talk of the world in mid-August 2025. Taylor appeared on Instagram with a carousel post featuring her and Travis Kelce completely in love, posing in a beautiful floral garden. “Miss Americana" officially announced her engagement with the witty caption: "Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married 🧨." This post literally fired crackers all over the world. Taylor was wearing a black-and-white striped dress from Ralph Lauren, carrying a brown Louis Vuitton bag, and accessorizing with a gold Cartier watch. But what caught everyone’s attention was the glimpse of one of the most-awaited engagement rings in the country. Jewelers and fans immediately zoomed in to get a closer look at the sparkling ring. Although our own "English teacher and gym teacher" is now deep into wedding planning,  with the big day reportedly just around the corner, Taylor Swift's engagement ring is still dominating conversations across podcasts, YouTube videos, and articles. So here we are, too. Let’s take a closer look at what Taylor Swift’s engagement ring holds inside. How Travis Kelce Presented Taylor Swift's Engagement Ring Before we go into the technical details of how Taylor Swift’s engagement ring was created, what inspired Travis Kelce, and which jewelers designed it, let’s first take a glimpse at how our favorite celebrity got proposed to. It is actually a really interesting story. Travis Kelce reportedly proposed to Taylor Swift on August 10, 2025. As you all know, Travis runs a podcast with his brother, Jason Kelce. That day started as a regular recording session,  but what happened after is the part worth telling. Later that October, when Taylor appeared on Heart Breakfast to promote her new album, The Life of a Showgirl, she looked back on the proposal and said of Travis: "He was paying attention to everything, it turns out. But she was completely unaware of what was about to unfold before her. While recording the podcast, Travis blacked out the studio, closed all the windows, and switched off all the lights. He had never done that in any previous episode. It was a conscious distraction to keep Taylor from looking outside the window, where the proposal setup was already prepared. Later, during an appearance on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon," Taylor admitted that it was the first time she had ever seen Travis so nervous. “He is professionally not a nervous person,” she said on the show. Then, finally, Travis asked Taylor if she would like to take a walk in the backyard and have a glass of wine. She replied, “I’m always gonna wanna do that.” Once outside, she quickly realized why he had been nervous all along; he proposed during that walk. The garden setting featured thousands of flowers adorning an arch surrounding the couple, creating an enchanted scene that reportedly cost nearly $40,000. The ivy and willow flowers were likely a nod to two songs from Taylor’s album Evermore. Right after the proposal, the couple FaceTimed both of their families to share the news. Ed Kelce described the moment simply as “beautiful.” And then, they revealed the engagement ring we are going to talk about next. Taylor Swift Engagement Ring At a Glance Taylor Swift is a one-of-a-kind artist. She does everything in her power to entertain her audience. She has gone far beyond the borders of the USA and built a global fanbase. Very few artists can create songs out of everyday conversations, and of course, she is also known for her gorgeous and cheerful personality. So naturally, her engagement ring had to be truly one of a kind. Old Mine Cut Cushion Diamond Is The Center Of Attraction Taylor Swift’s engagement ring is said to be inspired by vintage engagement ring styles. The main attraction of the ring is the old mine elongated cushion-cut diamond of 6 to 8 carats at its center. The old mine elongated cushion-cut diamond is considered the forefather of the modern cushion-cut diamond. These diamonds were widely used during the 18th century. Interestingly, they were specifically cut to maximize their sparkle under candlelight,  which makes perfect sense, as electric lighting did not exist at that time. Reports suggest that the antique cushion-cut diamond in Taylor Swift’s engagement ring has a near-colorless grade and VS1 clarity. In technical terms, these are considered some of the top characteristics of a high-quality diamond. Why Travis Chose an Old Mine Cushion Diamond For Taylor’s Engagement Ring When you look at Taylor Swift’s engagement ring, you instantly get the feeling of a vintage design. It may have a softer sparkle compared to modern cuts, yet it looks incredibly luxurious and elegant. Honestly, Hollywood celebrities seem obsessed with these vintage-style diamonds. Even Tom Holland reportedly chose an old mine cushion-cut diamond for Zendaya's engagement ring. Celebrities nowadays want to feel like a living queen, and it has become a natural tendency in America to believe that older things look more gorgeous and royal, whether it is wine or watches. Older pieces often carry a timeless and regal charm, and celebrity engagement rings are following the same trend. Travis Kelce also stepped into the same vintage era to make Taylor feel like the queen of her empire. Why Travis Kelce Chooses Yellow Gold For Taylor Swift's Engagement Ring In 2019, when Taylor Swift launched her album Lover, she chose a yellow-gold color palette for almost everything. From her costumes and stage design to the music videos, everything echoed shades of yellow gold. This conscious choice of color shows how much Taylor loves yellow gold. Additionally, yellow gold is the most suitable metal for her vintage-inspired engagement ring. In fact, Travis Kelce seemingly wanted to express, “I know you, and I know your style,” through Taylor Swift’s engagement ring. What Setting Is Used In Taylor Swift's Engagement Ring To hold the 8-carat old mine cushion-cut diamond, Travis Kelce and the jewelers used a setting that experts call very unusual. The setting is a bezel style, but the way it is executed is unique. In a traditional bezel-set engagement ring, the gallery rail usually sits directly underneath the stone. However, on Taylor Swift’s ring, it is slightly offset, allowing you to see a sliver of metal while also letting more light pass through the diamond for extra sparkle and protection. When you look closely at the ring, you can notice that Taylor Swift’s ring has a thick swirling band. Apart from this, there is also a hidden “T” for Travis placed within the filigree on one side of the band. Additionally, the band features flush-set accent stones, two on each side, including a triangle-shaped stone followed by a round diamond. These stones sit flush with the gold band rather than being prong-set. Who Created Taylor Swift's Engagement Ring Big names come with big effort, and Travis Kelce reportedly put in a gigantic amount of effort just to select the diamond. It is said that he took nearly 18 months to choose the perfect diamond for Taylor Swift’s engagement ring. Taylor once told Travis about Artifex Fine Jewelry, NYC, as she reportedly admired the jeweler’s artistry in creating vintage-inspired engagement rings. Keeping this clue in mind, Travis collaborated with the 30-year-old founder of Artifex, Lubeck. This young female jeweler is herself the daughter of a goldsmith and is highly skilled in hand engraving.  Her design philosophy is stone-oriented, and she says, “If I’m not inspired by the stone, I cannot make the piece.” That is why they reportedly took 18 months just to choose the stone. Ultimately, this iconic Taylor Swift ring is the result of Travis’s dedication, along with the hard work and craftsmanship of the designers and workers at Artifex Fine Jewelry. Some Interesting Facts About Taylor Swift's Engagement Ring The old mine-cut diamond features 58 facets, and when you add 5 + 8, you get 13, Taylor Swift’s famous lucky number hidden in plain sight. Jewelry experts estimate the ring could be worth anywhere from $1 million to $5 million, with valuations varying based on the rarity and color grade of the old mine cut diamond. Antique stones of this quality and size are genuinely difficult to source. For the proposal, Travis Kelce recreated the garden from Taylor’s favorite book, The Secret Garden. Before the engagement ring, Taylor was also seen wearing a “double T” ring from Tiffany & Co., another playful reference to the couple. The ring also created what many people are calling “The Taylor Swift Effect,” as vintage-inspired engagement rings and old mine-cut diamonds surged in popularity worldwide after the engagement reveal. Interestingly, Kindred Lubeck was once told that she would never become a jewelry designer, but she persisted and eventually became the jeweler who designed for Taylor Swift.

Selena Gomez engagement ring is finally here, and the lucky guy is Benny Blanco. For 15 years, Selena has been in relationships with many successful men, but none of them could get close enough to claim that spot in her life. Benny did. And they moved fast; within a year of going official, they were already married.  It all started on December 11, 2024, when Selena herself announced the engagement on her Instagram, captioning “Forever begins now”. That was it. The internet went wild. And why not? It is one of the most talked-about hands in the world, so the ring going on that finger had to be something historic.  Let's unfold the history, the chemistry, and everything about that beautiful marquise diamond engagement ring. And yes, by the end, we will help you find the same for yourself. So stick around until then.  What Makes Selena Gomez's Engagement Ring So Special  What makes Selena Gomez’s engagement ring special is Selena herself. Her reputation, her art, and her success could make even a $100 ring feel worth a million dollars. That is undeniable. But apart from that, her engagement ring is genuinely quite special. Although Selena Gomez’s engagement ring is not as flashy or overly sparkly as something like Lainey Wilson’s engagement ring, it still carries its own beauty and elegance.  Her ring is an aesthetic side stone engagement ring featuring a marquise-cut diamond estimated between six and eight carats as the focal point. But the ring is not just about million-dollar diamonds. More than that, it represents and symbolizes her connection with Benny Blanco. In her song “Good for You”, she sang a line that reportedly became one of the biggest inspirations for Benny while creating the dream ring for the woman he loves. In the song, she says, “I’m a marquise diamond.” That line itself reflects how much she loved the marquise diamond shape. And to highlight that love for marquise diamonds, the ring is designed in a way that the marquise-cut center diamond gets all the attention in the ring. It is like Benny did not want to give Selena a luxurious engagement ring. He wanted her to wear herself.  Who Designed Selena Gomez's Engagement Ring Selena Gomez's engagement ring was designed and created by the Los Angeles-based jewelry house, Abril Barret. It is reported that Benny created the ring for Selena without asking for help from her friends, her family, or even Selena herself. He trusted the two founders of Abril Barret completely, Katherine Theofilos Claster and Stephanie Theofilos. He worked for months alongside them to build this ring. In short, Benny had complete trust that Katherine and Stephanie would create exactly the ring Selena had always wanted.  One Interesting Fact About Selena Gomez's Engagement Ring The ring that Selena Gomez wore on December 11, 2024, as her engagement ring was actually a redesign. The original ring featured large baguette-cut diamonds on the sides. However, Selena reportedly disliked that version because she felt it looked too complex. She wanted the focus to stay completely on her favorite marquise diamond. So Benny Blanco removed the side baguette diamonds from the first version of Selena Gomez’s engagement ring. But he did not waste those baguette diamonds. Instead, Benny made a smart decision. He used the baguette diamonds to create a pair of beautiful earrings for Selena. All You Need To Know About Selena Gomez's Engagement Ring  Selena Gomez’s engagement ring is actually a side-stone ring. The real talking point of the ring is the gigantic 6-carat marquise diamond. Marquise diamonds are unique in themselves. Out of all the diamonds being created, only a very small percentage are marquise diamonds, which makes the shape feel rare and special. Although the designer and the couple have not disclosed the GIA report or the exact anatomy of the diamond, experts have estimated its 4Cs profile. According to those estimates, the marquise diamond in Selena Gomez’s engagement ring may have: Weight of around 6–8 carats Near-colorless grade in the D–F range Clarity of IF or VVS1/VVS2 Minimal bow-tie effect with excellent cut quality Side Diamond Detail In The Ring Selena Gomez’s engagement ring features round-cut diamonds across the entire yellow gold band. You can barely see any exposed metal in the ring, which is a typical characteristic of eternity bands. These small diamonds are likely around 0.01 ct to 0.03 ct in size. They are set using a pavé setting, which uses tiny prongs to hold the diamonds in place. Because of this setting style, the ring shows very little metal, giving it a fully diamond-covered appearance. We can confidently say that Selena Gomez’s engagement ring is basically a combination of a solitaire ring and an eternity band.  What Is The Cost Of Selena Gomez's Engagement Ring The actual price that Benny Blanco paid for Selena Gomez’s engagement ring is known only by Selena, Benny, the jewelers, and their closest people. The real price has not been publicly revealed. However, jewelers and experts have come up with their own pricing estimates for Selena’s ring. Different experts assume different carat weights and different 4Cs measurements, which is why the estimated prices vary so much. Famous jeweler Jared has estimated the ring’s value at around $225,000 USD, assuming the marquise center diamond is about 6 carats. Meanwhile, a UK-based jewelry industry estimate values the ring closer to £500,000, which is roughly $640,000 USD, assuming the center diamond is around 8 carats. Can You Create Selena Gomez’s Engagement Ring on a Budget Whatever price the experts estimate, one thing is certain: a ring like Selena Gomez’s original engagement ring is out of reach for 99% of the world’s population. But a ring that looks like it? That is absolutely possible. Yes, you may not be able to get the same engagement ring with identical specifications on paper, but there are ways to create a very similar-looking ring within a budget of around $4,000 to $5,000. But before we talk about how you can make that happen, first understand whether this style is really for you. I mean, does a marquise diamond engagement ring actually suit your personality and style? Because at the end of the day, the ring should be made for you, not for Selena Gomez. Can Marquise Dimaond Engagement Ring Suits You Marquise diamonds are not as popular as round or oval diamonds. So, if you want an engagement ring with a more common and widely accepted diamond shape, then you may want to stop thinking about a Selena Gomez-style engagement ring. Marquise diamonds tend to make fingers look longer and slimmer. However, on shorter fingers, a marquise diamond can sometimes cover more finger area than necessary. So, people with shorter fingers may want to think carefully before choosing this type of ring. Marquise diamonds also have pointed tips, and Selena Gomez’s engagement ring uses a prong setting, which leaves those tips exposed. Because of that, the pointed ends can chip if they hit hard surfaces and may also snag on clothes. So these are important practical issues to keep in mind with marquise diamond engagement rings. Another thing is that Selena Gomez’s ring has diamonds all over the band, even on the back side. In daily wear, the diamonds in that area are more likely to loosen over time because of constant contact and friction. All in all, if you work a lot with your hands or regularly do heavy physical activities, then a Selena Gomez-style engagement ring may not be the best option for you. But if you love heavy sparkle and are okay with giving the ring extra care and attention, then it can definitely be worth considering.
