White gold engagement rings were once a highly popular choice, losing favour to cooler toned metals such as white gold and platinum in more recent years. Since the emergence of coloured golds such as rose gold however, yellow gold is making a major comeback.
While this metal does not appeal to every taste, it has an elegant, sophisticated look that adds plenty of warmth. Used alongside classic diamonds, the combination is a ring that is feminine yet subtle. Depending on the design you choose however, your ring could be as understated or bold as you choose. To help you get inspired, we have showcased some of our favourite yellow gold rings.
