Top 10 Types of Eternity Ring

Eternity ring gets its name from the word ‘eternal’ as the band has no beginning or end. It symbolizes everlasting love and often used as wedding band or a gift from husband to wife.

Generally, the eternity rings are adorned with full circle or half circle of colourless diamonds, but coloured diamonds and gemstones eternity rings have started to gain popularity due to its contemporary and modern look. 

There are varies options to set an eternity ring:

1. Prong Set Eternity Ring

Also known as claw setting, prong setting is the most popular setting design for eternity ring. Each diamond is typically held by four prongs securely, and the prongs can be seen from both top and side views.

2. Shared Prong Set Eternity Ring

Shared prong setting is designed to enhance the diamond’s exposure to the lighting by further reducing the metal in between two diamonds. The prongs will be less obvious in this setting and allow better light performance of the diamonds.

3. Channel Set Eternity Ring

As its name indicates, the diamonds of the channel set eternity ring are set alongside into the groove or the channel in the metal band, holding the diamonds securely. With the protection layers at both sides, channel setting is relatively secured amongst all settings for eternity ring.  

4.  Pavé Set Eternity Ring

In pavé setting, the diamonds are set in place by teeny metal beads. Pavé set eternity ring is often used to hold smaller diamonds to generate a paved appearance. The design is greatly focusing on the sparkle of the diamonds by minimizing the metal parts. 

5.  Bezel Set Eternity Ring

Unlike other settings, the diamonds in bezel set eternity ring are framed separately in each mounting. Each diamond will be surrounded entirely by the metal, which offer best protection for diamonds. Bezel set eternity ring is generally designed with milgrain to create a vintage and artistic effect on the ring.  

6.  Bar Set Eternity Ring

The diamonds are divided from the next by a bar divider in a bar set eternity ring. This design creates an alternate diamond and metal formation instead of constant appearance of diamonds alongside. Although the brilliance and sparkle are reduced with high proportion of metal part, bar set eternity ring attracts group of people with its unique and unisex design.    

7.  Flush Set Eternity ring

As its name implies, flush set eternity ring has its diamonds flushed in the metal, which only show the top view or the table of the diamonds. While having less focus on the diamonds, flush set eternity rings are generally stylish and easy to maintain. 

8. Cut Down Set Eternity ring

As the alteration of the prong setting, cut down setting maximizes the exposure of diamonds with no visible metal strip from either side. The light performance of diamonds is greatly enhanced with cut down setting and the diamonds are visible from top and side views.

9. Tension Set Eternity Ring

Instead of having prongs, tension setting holds the diamonds in place with the stabilizing force, built from the law of physics and the theories of tension. The diamonds are set under the pressure exerted on the girdle of the diamonds from the metal band. Hence, the diamonds seem floating in between the metal strips, giving a distinctive look with simple structure.    

10. Curved Eternity Ring

A curved eternity ring is often used as a matching band and stacked with an engagement ring or a cocktail ring. A variety of designs with different curvature are available in the market to accommodate the structure of another ring. Stackable rings allow you to express your creativity in matching jewellery and provide a high fashion sense when the rings are in good fit.

Top 10 Designs of Engagement Ring

Your marriage proposal is one of the most meaningful and unforgettable events in your life, having the perfect ring surely helps to highlight this special moment.

From ring designs to centre stones, there are tons of options available, and hence, selecting the best engagement ring for your loved one can be very challenging. Therefore, considering the lifestyle and personal taste of your partner and you is the most crucial when buying an engagement ring.

1. Classic Solitaire Engagement Ring

A solitaire ring refers to the simple classic setting, mounted with a single centre stone, be it diamond or gemstone. The simple design shows off the beauty of the centre stone, which best suits those who prefer pure and elegant style.

2. Twisted Shank Contemporary Solitaire Engagement Ring

A variation to the classic ring shank, twisted shank adds modern and contemporary taste to the elegant solitaire ring. With the artistic touch, engagement ring with gentle curve design becomes the darling of the dainty ladies.

3. Pavé Engagement Ring

Pavé setting presents simple yet elegant factors with beautiful enhancement with more desirable little diamond sparkles. Embedding small diamonds on the ring gives a graceful and sophisticated taste.

4. Channel Setting Engagement Ring

Like pavé setting, channel setting involves adding small diamonds or other gemstones to the shank of an engagement ring. The technique involves mounting small stones into a channel made from two precious metal alloy strips, which hold the stones securely in place. The channel setting becomes a popular choice with its secure, sleek and stylish effect on the ring.

5. Split-Shank Style Engagement Ring

Another popular design for engagement ring, split-shank engagement ring altering the shank of the ring by dividing the ring shank into two at both sides of the centre stone, creating a small gap in between. The tapering effect generally makes the centre stone look more prominent, the broader ring is a popular choice amongst the ladies who prefer a more solid design.  

6. Trilogy Engagement Ring

Also known as three-stone or trinity engagement ring, trilogy engagement ring features three stones which symbolize past, present, and future. The centre stone, which represent this present moment of bliss and love, is generally larger and set higher than the others. Besides the lovely connotation, the ring is also exclusive and charming with the additional 2 accompanying diamonds or coloured gemstones. 

7. Swirl Engagement Ring

The most feminine design with a connection of shank with a centre stone to create a soft, flowy effect. As the ring shanks on both sides are not parallel nor in a straight line to connect with the centre stone, it gives an effect of spiralling effect around the stone. With or without melee diamonds embedded on the swirled shank, the ring appears to be stylish, lady-like and gorgeous.

8. Vintage Engagement Ring

Vintage style engagement ring is recognized for its refined and artistic values. Instead of showcasing the centre stone only, vintage style engagement ring emphasizes on the intricate details on the ring, be it nature-inspired patterns or antique embossment, combine with different sizes of diamonds to create a sophisticated impression.

The vintage engagement ring is perfect for those who are artistic and admire extraordinary craftmanship.

9. Halo Engagement Ring

A halo setting is a magnificent way to show off a beautiful white diamond, to visually enlarge a diamond, or to add contrast in the colors of the main stone and the halo. The centre stone is surrounded by a circle of melee diamonds to sophisticatedly highlight the shine and brilliance of the centre stone with the reflection of light. Halo setting also delivers a dazzling contrast when it mounted with coloured gemstones.

10. Hidden Halo Engagement Ring

A minor variation to the common halo setting, the sparkling halo of pavé diamonds positioned just beneath the stone in a hidden halo setting. The halo cannot be seen from the top but it acts as an added intricate surprise to shine from the side view.
