Coloured Gemstone Engagement Rings

Did you know that long before diamonds became the most favoured gemstone, sapphire reigned as the most popular choice for engagement rings? From beautiful blue sapphires, marvellous yellow diamonds and red rubies, coloured gemstones are still a hot trend in the jewellery industry right now and are considered a unique yet impressive engagement ring choice.

What to look for when buying a coloured gemstone engagement ring

Similar to if you were buying a diamond engagement ring, there are a few things you should consider before making your purchase. Firstly, colour is the most important thing when looking for a coloured gemstone piece and is the main thing that determines the value of the gem. Furthermore, the colour really has an overriding effect on the entire appearance of the piece so you may wish to select something that reflects their personality. Along with colour, cut is another important thing to consider. A stone that is well cut will show a beautiful and even amount of colour with a lighter ‘window’ - allowing the stone to look it’s best.

What are the most popular coloured gemstone engagement rings?

Blue sapphires still tend to be the favoured coloured gemstone for engagement rings. Kate Middleton may have something to do with that, as Prince William proposed to her with his mother’s sapphire and diamond engagement ring, and the ring has since been a popular topic of discussion among fans. Halo and three stone rings are also a popular choice for gemstone rings as the combination of coloured gemstones with diamonds creates a beautiful finish.

Famous coloured gemstone engagement rings

There are plenty of famous faces that are fans of coloured gemstones. Halle Berry rocks a stunning emerald style, Jessica Simpson's engagement ring is adorned with her birthstone - ruby, and Elizabeth Hurley's beautiful design is accented with marvellous sapphires.
