Diamond Ballerina

Diamonds are the perfect choice for every season. There’s a reason that this stone remains a timeless classic. Versatile, extremely durable and always spectacular, diamonds will never go out of style. In this ring, a centre diamond is surrounded by smaller diamonds in a ballerina or tutu design. Tiny pave diamonds along the band add the final touch.
Sapphire Swirl

When it comes to blue stones, most people immediately think of sapphires. With their clear, vibrant shade of blue, these precious stones work especially well when paired with diamonds on a white gold or platinum band. In this design, a pave-encrusted sapphire swirl interlinks with a pave diamond swirl, surrounding a round centre diamond.
Aquamarine Side-Stone

If you prefer blue stones that are lighter and softer, aquamarine is a great pick. This stone has a soft shade of light blue. It works very well with diamonds in a variety of ring styles. In this design, a centre aquamarine is flanked by baguette-cut diamonds on each side.
Topaz Pear

Another lovely blue stone is topaz, which comes in a wide range of colours. This design features a blue topaz pear that is surrounded by a halo of diamonds that continue onto the band. This ring is simple, classic and elegant, making it perfect for anyone looking for a sophisticated ring that won’t ever date.
Tanzanite Trinity

Tanzanite stones vary in colour from a deep blue that is close to violet to a lighter shade of blue. This stone works perfectly with diamonds, especially when set on cool-toned metals such as platinum or white gold. In this minimal ring design, a round Tanzanite stone is positioned in the centre, with a diamond on either side. Trinity or three-stone rings are deeply romantic, symbolising your past, present and future.
Moonstone Halo

For the bride who loves something a little more unique, moonstone is an unusual choice to use alongside diamonds. This stone has a pearly, opalescent colour that gives it an ethereal look. In this design, a centre moonstone is surrounded by classic halo diamonds for a modern take on the classic halo ring.
Turquoise Tiara

Tiara rings take their name from their crown shape, which ranges from simple to more elaborate. These rings are often used as part of ring sets, making them ideal for stacking. On their own, they manage to be subtle yet eye-catching. These rings are small, with their main impact coming from the choice of stones you choose. In this ring, a small round bezel-cut diamond is set on a delicate band, with small turquoise stones set on the top in a tiara shape.
