Frequently Asked Question Unique Engagement Rings

A unique engagement ring is one that has creative designs with lots of personality, typically set with different kinds of diamonds and gemstones. They can feature different precious metals, two-tone designs, unusual setting styles, customizations, and more elements that help them stand out from the crowd. Unique engagement rings, also known as non-traditional rings or alternative engagement rings, showcase the wearer’s style and spirit.

The metal you choose for a unique engagement ring is all about the wearer’s personal preference. The most popular metals, even for non-traditional styles, are gold and platinum. These precious metals offer durability that helps make any unique engagement ring an instant heirloom.

Unique wedding rings and engagement designs offer additional style features that can make the center stone look bigger or clearer, helping to maximize any ring buying budget. The setting style, gemstones, diamonds, and customizations you choose will all influence the cost of your chosen unique engagement ring. We offer a wide variety of non-traditional engagement rings for every budget. Our unique diamond rings will generally cost more than unique engagement rings with gemstones, but the exact price difference will vary from one ring to the next. The cost of unique rings varies depending on the designs and stones you choose.

Unique diamond rings and gemstone styles are standout settings, but it’s important to ensure that these kinds of styles fit the wearer. Take a look at your partner’s existing jewelry collection and see how it may speak to their tastes when it comes to engagement rings. Do they have a large collection of more whimsical pieces, or do they prefer traditional jewelry looks? You can also ask friends and family about your partner’s jewelry tastes, or even ask your partner directly if you’re able to do so without revealing your upcoming proposal.

Absolutely! You can choose the exact diamond or gemstone you’d like featured in your unique ring. We also offer further customization options to help build the perfect non-traditional, creative, whimsical, alternative, or simply cool design that’s best for your partner.
