A Tour of Engagement Rings from Around the World

If you’re buying for a bride-to-be who prizes her passport above all other things or has dreams of a honeymoon in a far-flung land, you might want to consider an engagement ring that takes inspiration from an exotic destination. Here are just a few options - let’s go on a whistle-stop tour of engagement rings around the world…

Paris - the ultimate city of romance. Whether it’s the language, the beauty of the architecture, or just the general sense of history, this is one city that is perfect for any couple in love. It’s so romantic, in fact, that Verragio has dedicated an entire collection to this French city.

In the Parisian collection, you’ll find a collection of rings that incorporates French beading and lace work, adding the kind of beauty that Paris is known for around the world.

This Verragio Pave Cushion Halo Diamond Engagement Ring uses that French beading on the band, while the Round Brilliant Cut Diamond Melee shows off that center stone beautifully.

If there is a European city that is vying with Paris for the title of Most Romantic, it’s Venice. With the winding canals, beautiful churches and hundreds of hidden corners for lovers to meet, it’s one of the most popular honeymoon destinations in the world.

The Verragio Venetian collection celebrates the vintage era. The lace work can be seen when the band is in profile, adding the kind of intricate touches that sets these rings apart.

The Verragio 4 Prong Cushion Halo Diamond Engagement Ring is a more ornate Verragio design, in keeping with the style of the Gothic architecture found in Venice. It still features that French beading, but it is combined with a more elaborate Diamond Melee.

London is the home to red buses, fish and chips, and perhaps most famously, the Royal Family. While engagement ring styles have varied over the years, when Royal proposals have been made, undoubtedly one of the most beautiful rings is that given by Prince Phillip to Queen Elizabeth II. The ring features a round cut center diamond, flanked by beautiful pave diamonds.

This Danhov Per Lei Halo Diamond Engagement Ring features that same round cut center diamond, and since the understructure frames an open profile view, you get maximum sparkle from your engagement ring. That means this ring is perfectly paired with A CUT ABOVE® diamond, which is the ultimate in sparkle and quality.

The Simon G jewelry house has been based in Los Angeles since Simon started the family business 35 years ago. Today, his team has grown considerably, but the cool and contemporary styling of LA can still be seen infused into all of the Simon G engagement rings.

If you want something that offers both contemporary looks with a classic solitaire diamond, this Simon G Caviar Diamond Engagement Ring could be just the thing. Enhancing and highlighting the center stone, the round brilliant melee creates an overall effect that is truly dazzling.

When it comes to jewelry, New York is synonymous with Tiffany’s. Who could forget Audrey Hepburn flying round the shop floor, overwhelmed by all of those beautiful loose diamonds? Tiffany’s was also the originator of the now classic 6-prong solitaire setting, otherwise known as the Tiffany setting.

The Vatche 6-Prong Solitaire Engagement Ring is a style in the same category. In addition to a stunning presentation of the feature diamond, it offers the utmost in security when it comes to keeping the center diamond safe for a lifetime of daily wear.
