If
you are looking to choose an engagement ring soon, then you may be interested
to know what is currently in fashion this year when it comes to the different
styles of rings. Once you know the style of ring that you prefer, you can then
purchase your diamonds and precious metals, and have your ring professionally
made, making a saving in the process.
The Round Brilliant Cut
The
round brilliant cut is the most popular cut of diamond used in ornate
jewellery, so it is no surprise that this cut is popular once again in 2016.
All jewellers will have a large selection of this style of cut; and Diamond Brokers Queensland
creates dazzling engagement rings using round brilliant cut diamonds.
The Princess Cut
The
princess cut is the second most favourite cut of
diamonds,
and is also prevalent this year. Similar to an inverted pyramid, the princess
cut catches the light brilliantly and will make your finger sparkle, sure to
attract the attention of your friends and colleagues!
Open Setting
Engagement
rings with an open setting have become increasingly popular over the last few
years, and 2016 looks set to be no different. You will need to be careful with
this style, however, as it can catch on things easily.
The Halo
The
halo setting is another style which has been increasingly popular over the
years, with many brides-to-be opting for this style of setting. You can add
some sparkle to smaller or duller stones, using this, and can also make you
look like you have spent a lot more than you have. Diamond Queensland, Australia, has many clients asking
for this style of engagement ring, which they can supply on a bespoke basis,
and they expect it to be popular again this year.
The Marquise Cut
The
marquise is a timeless classic and is making a comeback in 2016. There is a
vintage, as well as a regal look to this cut of diamond, and you can pair the
stone with another, or play around with the placement of the setting, giving
yourself a new twist to this classic setting.
The Over and Under
The
over and under rings, with a wrapped or split shanks, have become very popular
recently, and is an up and coming trend for 2016. The over and under is an
ornate, but simple looking ring, but this style is an excellent way to show off
the quality of a diamond in the ring.
Not Just Gold!
Traditionally
an engagement ring would be made out of yellow or white gold, or maybe even
platinum. However, it is becoming increasingly popular to use other precious
metals and alloys to make interesting and unique jewellery. 2016 is seeing
these less traditional metals increasing in popularity as people search for
something different. If you want to stand out and be different, why not use
palladium or tungsten, rather than traditional metals? You can design your
engagement ring using a different kind of precious metal, and have your
favourite diamond cut, making a truly unique ring.
