Every lady is exceptionally diverse.
We have different preferences and taste when it comes to style or design. A guy proposing ones in his lifetime, would definitely go out of his way to
find the most unique yet suitable ring design for his queen.
Searching online for the most
unique engagement ring design would most likely lead you to photos with over the top elobrate designs that is often ''extremely unique'', or rather ''too much''.
To give you some idea what I mean by ‘customization’, let me share with you
my own top 5 most interesting ideas for customization.
1. Engravings with Milgrain
Cameo is a technique of carving object
including gems, jewelries or even vessels that are made way back during 3rd
Century BC in Greece. But in ancient times it is mainly used for signet rings.
It orignated from the word ‘Kame’o”
a word used in kabbalistic slang to signify a magic square – it’s like a kind
of talisman where magical spells were carved.
After sometime, Romans began
personalizing rings, shifting from the “fede” which depics 2 hands clasping in
agreement to marriage or love into carvings of the couples themselves with the
faces or full bodies of each couple.
At present, this term is used loosely to
objects even without symbolism.
Since diamond became the centre piece of
rings, modern day carving designs are a lot simpler, and work towards the bands
instead of signet rings.
Carvings are often accentuated with tiny
beads that adorn its borders. These are called milgrain, which literally
translates to a thousand of grains. This gives the ring a more vintage feel.
2. Vines, Twigs and Twirls
It’s been now a trend to hear customers
looking for design apart from what is norm. Of course, people want their ring
to be totally different from the rest. This is when we suggest an out of the
box intertwined bands. From the simple braids like this design.....
to the twig like settings that adds texture to your ring.
If your girlfriend
prefers something more diverse, you might consider adding up some smaller
diamonds on the sides, making it look like vines elegantly surrounding your
main diamond.
3. Disney Inspired Designs
This design looks normal from the
top view, with some small detail on the band. But when you
observe from the side, you’ll see that this is actually a Little Mermaid
inspired ring created with 5 closed seashell shapes!
From the depths of the sea, let’s travel
the land with Alladin’s Monkey inspired design. Holding a 30 pointer diamond is
“Abu”, one of the popular characters in the Disney Film Alladin. Just be extra
careful as he might steal your diamond ;)
Next in line would be the design based
on Winnie the Pooh’s wise old Owl. Guarding
the Super Ideal Cut diamond, are 2 owls with huge eyes studded with diamonds as
well. For the final touch, the main diamond was surrounded by melee diamonds.
Last among our Disney inspired creations
would come from the most popular Disney Princess. Yep, you guessed it right,
none other than Cinderella’s pumpkin Carriage! But don’t you worry, this ring won’t
turn back to scratch after midnight. Your fairy godmother will make sure everything’s perfect before your collection date.
The Celtic designs originated in 2000 BC
to 550 AD. Even though time has advanced
and the procedure of making Celtic rings has been developed,
what remains prominent is the significance and meanings of the ancient Celtic symbols;
the knot is formed from the intersecting lines of three arcs that connect at a
pointed end. This knot represents the notion of Trinity (three parts united as
one). The symmetrical lines symbolize the balance flow between the three parts.
These are the harmonious connections between three related aspects of life,
such as body, mind and spirit. In ancient Celtic goddess lore, this knot
symbolized the maiden, mother, and wise old woman.
The symbolic representation of Celtic design
makes it very interesting. Doesn't it?
5. Slot-In Rings

matched up, and this is similar with our engagement ring and wedding bands. One
