A Notable History
The engagement ring has not always been one of amorous symbolism, but rather a sign of ownership in Ancient Rome. Pope Nicholas I was the first to declare the engagement ring as a symbol of intent to marry. In 1477, Archduke Maximilian of Austria was the first to complement the engagement ring with diamonds when he proposed marriage to Mary of Burgundy – though not quite establishing a diamond trend yet. The famous British company, De Beers, was the first to initiate a diamond trend in 1947 and popularized the notion that “a diamond is forever”.
Today, the engagement ring is almost always a prerequisite to modern-day proposals. An admirable depth is now associated not only in worth, but in sincere meaning.
Cutting Through The Choices
The mere assortment in design, color, and shape can make choosing the Simple Wedding Ring quite an overwhelming process. First and foremost in the criterion is quality in design, material, and structure. The second noteworthy component is, of course, the taste of the wearer. The third element proves to be the most difficult – narrowing down the options and finding the perfect fit.
Not to worry, though. Any decision based on quality is the right decision. Provided the piece is a perfectly crafted one, any selection will be well-received.
The Shape of Devotion
As previously mentioned, Simple Engagement Rings come in many shapes, forms, and styles. Each piece in the collection can be identified by its distinctive design and diamond arrangement for an elegant engagement ring that you will love.
Solitaire: A well-known classic in simple design. With its refined edges and modern curves, the Solitaire features but a single diamond at its core, while the band style generously unifies the entire design.
Pavé Shank: With accented diamonds paving the way for the breathtaking diamond, the Pavé style is the perfect choice when a subtle strike of sparkle and elegance is the aspiration.
Halo: Embracing the center piece is an assortment of accent diamonds perfectly heightening this popular design’s aura of refinement.
Three Stone: A romantic representation of love’s layers, the three-stone design features one main centerpiece complemented by a diamond on either side.
Like love, a Simple Ring emphasizes depth in the simpler things in life. The Christopher Designs Simple Engagement Ring is guaranteed to add a sparkle to your eternal flame.
Why Choose a Simple Engagement Ring
The subtle beauty of a simple engagement ring is both elegant and timeless. The recent trend of minimal jewelry means that simple engagement rings are regaining popularity because of their affordability, versatility, and timeless charm, but how do you know if it’s right for you? Make your choice easier by considering some of the benefits of a simple engagement ring before making your big decision!
So, why should you consider a simple engagement ring?
There are many options and designs to choose from:
Just because a ring is simple doesn’t mean it has to be boring. There are numerous ways to personalize the band, stone, and cut of your simple engagement ring and many design options to choose from to match your individual style and budget. In addition to having many popular simple engagement ring designs such as the pave shank or solitaire to choose from, you can curate your perfect ring by getting a unique colored diamond or gemstone, get the diamond cut in a non-traditional shape such as a pear or heart, or opt for raw, rustic, rough cut diamond as the focal point.
Simple engagement rings are generally more affordable:
A simple engagement ring can mean you have more money to spend on other things like a honeymoon or house, which can be an important deciding factor for many couples. However, it’s important to remember that just because your ring is simple doesn’t mean it’s going to be cheap. Ultimately, the price of your simple engagement ring will depend on the quality, carat, cut, and style of your ring, but they are usually a more affordable option since they tend to have a thinner shank of 1.5 to 2.5 mm and usually feature a single stone or smaller stones than the average engagement ring.
They are light, versatile, and more comfortable to wear on a daily basis:
A simple engagement ring means it’ll be lighter, thinner, and more versatile but to maintain its integrity over time, you should opt for stronger metals such as platinum or 18kt gold. The minimalistic and simple nature of the ring means it won’t get in your way as you’re going about your life making it more comfortable and functional for daily wear. In addition, you won’t have to worry about whether it goes with your outfit because you can wear a simple engagement ring with just about anything, no matter how casual or formal the occasion.
You can focus on overall quality, not just carat size:
If you’ve been researching your engagement ring for a while, you might be familiar with the 4 C’s and know that carat size is only one factor in choosing a diamond. Opting for a simple engagement ring will also allow you to focus on the clarity, color, and cut of your diamond. Consider that a large diamond with lots of inclusions, a poor quality cut, and a tinge of yellow may not be worth as much as a smaller diamond that’s a fraction of the size. With a simple engagement ring, you begin to understand the relationship between price and quality much more than if you’re just looking for the biggest rock to adorn your finger.
It’s much easier to match and wear with a wedding band:
The ring stacking trend is popular among many brides and is a mix between tradition and fashion. Simple engagement rings are subtle and tend to be quieter on your finger meaning they can be stacked much more easily with a wedding band and tend to be more comfortable when stacked. Furthermore, many brides are now opting for two wedding bands on either side of their engagement ring for added symmetry and in this case, smaller and more subtle engagement ring would be in your favor so you can stack to your heart’s content. Furthermore, when you opt for a lower profile engagement ring, it can also conveniently be worn with other types and styles of jewelry.
Their clean and classic design will stay forever fashionable and is sure to stand the test of time:
Delicate engagement rings have recently regained popularity with the emergence of a subtle and minimalistic jewelry trend, but if we look back in time, they have always been fashionable and are therefore timeless. A simple engagement ring might not always be the choice of top celebrities or socialites who are looking to make a statement, but they have always been able to withstand the test of time thanks to their elegance, charm, and grace.
There’s clearly something uniquely breathtaking about the minimalistic elegance of a simple engagement ring but the choice ultimately comes down to your preferences and lifestyle.
