If you’re looking for a beautiful, versatile, eye-catching ring, five-stone engagement rings may just be a perfect choice. Although they are similar in some ways to three-stone rings, these rings have a few added qualities that allow you to customise your dream ring. Besides the stones, setting, placement and size, there are even more ways to make these engagement rings unique.
While three-stone or trilogy rings have a clear symbolism, representing your past, present and future with your love, five-stone rings are a little different. These rings do not have defined symbolism. Their meaning can be interpreted in a few different ways. It can be more literal, celebrating half a decade as a couple. It could represent your birthday, the fifth month of the year if you met or got engaged in May. Some say that there are other romantic meanings, with each stone representing five qualities of a good relationship: love, commitment, trust, communication and empathy.
You don’t have to focus on any special meaning for this type of ring, however. This ring has a versatile design that allows you to add multiple stones in various sizes. They can be adapted to unique settings, making them even more versatile. To get inspiration on these engagement rings, we’ve put together a list of rings to inspire your custom ring design.

Bezel-cut rings are practical, beautiful and stylish. If you’re looking for a ring that you can wear daily without any worry about stones getting caught on anything, this type of setting is ideal. Diamonds are set into the metal, with a bubble shape that enhances the stone. In this ring, platinum ensures that the diamonds shine brightly, with a cool-toned band that works perfectly with the settings.
Gold Teardrop

Teardrop or pear-cut rings remain a popular choice, for good reason. These rings are delicate, pretty and feminine. They can also be worn facing upwards or downwards, allowing you to choose the most flattering direction for your hand. This ring features a centre stone, flanked by smaller stones on either size. A simple yellow-gold band balances the design for added elegance.
Rosy Pave

If you love rose gold rings, this one will catch your eye. With a classic multi-stone design, the addition of tiny pave diamonds along the band ensures that every single stone on the ring sparkles to perfection. The centre solitaire diamond is highlighted by the gradient of smaller stones, followed by the pave diamonds. A rose gold band adds the final touch to this timeless ring.
Interwoven Band

For something contemporary, on the other hand, this engagement ring has the ‘wow’ factor that turns heads. An intricately interwoven band and bezel-set diamonds create a cluster effect. In a cool-toned metal such as platinum, the ring will be a little more understated. In a warm-toned metal, the ring will stand out more. If you want this ring to grab attention, you could swap out some of the diamonds for coloured diamonds or gemstones.
Classic Taper

One of the many things to love about classic ring designs is that they will never go out of style. If you are planning a surprise proposal, a simple yet beautiful ring is highly recommended. If you are choosing your ring and want something feminine, this style is flattering yet simple. A centre diamond is flanked by a gradient of smaller diamonds, in a delicate gold band. You could swap out the diamonds for other gemstones to make this ring bolder.
Romantic Hearts

Perfect for any bride who loves romantic rings, this ring takes a slightly modern twist on classic heart-shaped rings. The ring has a subtle cluster design, with bezel-cut hearts set at angles along a delicate rose gold band. Although this ring features equal-sized diamonds, you could customise it by making the centre stone larger. You could also add contrast with coloured diamonds or gemstones. Hearts go well with rose gold but the ring would look equally lovely on a white or yellow gold band.
The secret to finding your dream ring is to speak to a professional jeweller. It is tempting to get your ring at a store that sells pre-made designs. In some cases, you may get lucky and have a choice of metal or stone. Working with a jeweller gives you far more chances to customise every element of your ring.
