Some people, particularly if they work in a professional environment, prefer quite conservative engagement ring designs. Have a think about your partner's workplace.

Designs where the diamond is set low on the ring are much more suitable for a partner that is particularly sporty or enjoys the great outdoors.

Of course, someone who enjoys, a mainly metropolitan lifestyle, or someone who is happy to remove their engagement ring when participating in sports, can of course wear a more intricate design.

Platinum engagement rings are more suitable for harsher environments because, compared to Gold engagement rings, they are more resilient to scratching. That said, gold rings can be easily plated to repair damage.

Engagement Rings and your Partner's Personality

Please note we even have a custom engagement ring design service if you are looking for something unique or want to customise an existing engagement ring with, say, fancy coloured diamonds.
