It’s been recently announced that the most popular engagement ring being pinned on Pinterest is a classic solitaire on a simple and elegant band, crafted in Rose Gold. The ring has been made as a bespoke piece for Sylvia Billone.

Rose Gold – Metal of the Moment
Interestingly, Sylvia Billone had the design made using her own collection of pins on Pinterest. Here it is proving that rose gold is the metal of the moment when it comes to most popular engagement rings. Rose gold is a wonderful choice for the majority of women, as whatever their skin tone, the rose gold compliments it beautifully.
This can be seen in the 18k Rose Gold Vatche 187 Caroline Solitaire Engagement Ring available from Whiteflash from $1470. The slender ring showcases the Rose Gold beautifully, and the four-prong head makes the solitaire the queen of the show.

Asymmetrical Bands Proving Popular
Also showing up among the most popular engagement rings, we are seeing a trend for asymmetrical bands. These striking rings catch the eye with their statement shapes. Asymmetry can work fantastically, if you choose a carefully balanced and executed design, such as the
Simon G Fabled Bezel Solitaire Engagement Ring. The result is contemporary yet fluid.

Delicacy Still Favored
Recent years have continually seen delicate and simple rings topping the charts for the most popular engagement rings. This is still the case, with many proposals taking place with a simple and classic design. While the asymmetrical Simon G. design above strikes a contemporary twist, the
Simon G. Fabled Diamond Engagement Ring below speaks of a delicate style, with gentle embellishment, which remains popular.

Wedding Sets in Vogue
It seems unlikely that wedding sets, comprised of both the engagement and wedding ring to truly showcase the whole, will ever fade from popularity. For those thinking ahead, wedding sets can bring a complete and holistic look where the two rings are truly married together as part of an overall design. The result is a range of popular wedding ring sets, such as the
Diamonds for an Eternity Three Quarter Diamond Wedding Set.

Seeing Double – The Double Shank
The double shank, and the twisted double shank, are both proving particularly popular designs. The double shank captivates the eye and lends an additional layer of exquisiteness to the ring, as can be seen with the
Katie Pave Diamond Engagement Ring. This ring also comes with our renowned A CUT ABOVE Hearts and Arrows Diamond Melee, so really is an ‘ideal’ choice to consider.

Adding in Floral Touches
While simplicity is still popular, we’re starting to see a slight shift to more complex designs, most notably with handcrafted floral touches being included in designs. These floral touches add to the femininity of the designs, and showcase the diamond with elegant flair, such as the
Verragio D-100 Scalloped Diamond Engagement Ring.

The Square Princess with Halo
Time and again we are seeing a contemporary twist to the simple solitaire with the much-loved square princess with halo. Square princess cut diamonds are a popular choice these days, and the halo creates an even more impressive look. The Whiteflash
Princess Halo Solitaire Engagement Ring enjoys being a popular choice.

Classic Good Looks with Vintage Inspired Designs
Lastly, in keeping with other fashion trends of recent years, many of the most popular engagement rings are vintage inspired. Slightly more intricate than the latest popular choices on Pinterest, vintage designs prove to have a timeless heirloom appeal and stand the test of time. The
Tacori Classic Crescent 3 Stone Engagement Ring achieves the vintage look with modern elegance: sophistication is a given.
