Red Carpet Diamonds

A common misconception in the diamond industry is that “cut” means the same thing as “shape” with regard to diamonds. The cut of a diamond is actually what determines its reflective qualities, and several diamond solitaires of the same shape can all have dramatically different cuts. Shapes are more immediately recognizable to the naked eye. Learn more…

Sleek, modern styles of engagement rings are very popular these days, but there is still a great deal of appreciation for the styles of yesteryear. Many of the design details that were in vogue during the first half of the 20th century have stood the test of time, and they can still be found in the antique style engagement rings featured here at JewelsBoutique.com.

Some shoppers prefer genuine antique bands because of the often mysterious personal history of each piece and its former owners. But before you choose the same path, consider the fact that the vintage looking engagement rings manufactured today feature antique designs but are created using modern methods.

Manufacturing Vintage Style Engagement Rings

We do this because we recognize that newer isn’t always better, and that the best approach is to borrow the finest techniques from all eras and schools of thought. The result of this commingling of craftsmanship is a growing collection of vintage style engagement rings that surpasses other reproductions and genuine antiques in nearly every category.

About Vintage Style Engagement Rings

No one engagement ring style is objectively superior to any other, but each style comes with its own set of distinct benefits. One of the most significant benefits of vintage style engagement rings is a major concern for ring buyers and wearers alike: the perceived size of the center stone.

Many of the older styles feature unusual or dish-shaped mountings that reflect and enhance the center diamond, making it appear more vibrant and noticeably larger than its actual size. Compared to the prong settings used in most modern ring designs, the now hard-to-find settings of antique style engagement rings can effectively make smaller center stones appear bigger, brighter and particularly beautiful.
