Modern Bridal Engagement Rings
Modern engagement rings reflect the evolving tastes and values of contemporary society. While the classic solitaire diamond ring remains a popular choice, there is a notable shift towards unique, personalised designs that emphasise individuality and sustainability. Many modern couples are drawn to coloured gemstones, unconventional settings, and alternative materials that break away from the traditional. Ethical sourcing and sustainability have also become paramount, with an increasing demand for conflict-free diamonds, lab-grown stones, and recycled metals. Furthermore, the rise of independent jewellers and online platforms offers a wider range of choices, allowing couples to select or custom-design a ring that truly represents their love story and personal ethos.
What is the new engagement ring trend?
One of the latest trends in modern engagement rings is the preference for unique and custom designs that reflect individuality and personal style. These rings often feature minimalistic and sleek designs that place the centre stone in the spotlight, allowing its beauty to shine. Additionally, there’s a growing interest in ethical and sustainable options, such as lab grown diamonds and Moissanite jewels, making them a modern choice for conscious consumers. A huge selection of 100% Premium LAVANA Lab Grown Diamonds and SUPERNOVA Moissanite are available now at Moi Moi Fine Jewellery stores.
Some other notable trends that have been on the rise include:
- Lab-grown diamonds: Ethical and environmentally conscious choices like lab-grown diamonds have been gaining popularity. They offer the same physical appearance and properties as mined diamonds but are more sustainable and often more affordable.
- Vintage and Art Deco styles: There has been a resurgence of interest in vintage and Art Deco-inspired designs, characterised by intricate details, geometric shapes, and bold contrasts.
- Coloured gemstones: While diamonds remain popular, coloured gemstones like sapphires, emeralds, rubies, and even non-traditional stones like coloured lab grown diamonds or coloured moissanite have been increasingly used as centre stones.
- Unique settings: Instead of the conventional prong or halo settings, designers are experimenting with bezel settings, east-west settings (where the gemstone is set horizontally), and hidden halo designs.
What is the most popular engagement ring now?
Minimalist engagement rings that showcase the centre stone, with elegant and sleek designs, are highly sought after. These rings prioritise quality centre jewels, over excessive ornamentation and are favoured for their timeless appeal. Moreover, lab grown diamonds and Moissanite jewels, known for their eco-friendliness and affordability, are gaining prominence among couples seeking contemporary, yet affordable options. LAVANA Lab Grown Diamonds and SUPERNOVA Moissanite exclusively available at Moi Moi Fine Jewellery are the most premium quality Lab Grown jewels available so you can be confident you’re getting the best.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to design an engagement ring?
There are many variables that will affect the price such as the type of stone chosen, stone size, how many side stones and how much gold or Platinum will be used in the ring. We can give you a quote straight away once you have made all of your selections.
Are custom engagement rings more expensive?
Custom engagement rings are slightly more expensive than our stock ring designs, yet still very affordable. We only charge a nominal custom fee to account for extra design and labour. Normal charges apply for the type of stone chosen, stone size, how many side stones and how much gold or Platinum will be used in your custom engagement ring.
How can I customise my engagement ring?
We can customise any ring to your requirements. Just share your ideas with us, either in-store, by email or on a video call so we can finalise all of the details of the design. We will also be able to provide a quote for you on the spot. Once we have your approval on these details we will then draw up a CAD (Computer Aided Design) for your approval or to make any changes. Then we begin to craft your beautiful ring for you. This entire process usually takes around 4 – 6 weeks. It is an easy and straight forward process.
What if I don’t know my ring size?
We can send you a ring sizer that you can find out yourself, your correct ring size at home. We can start your custom designed process while you wait for the ring sizer to arrive.
I don’t live in near a store, can I do custom made order over email/phone?
Absolutely! We frequently do this for our customers internationally and around Australia. We have a Live Help option which enhances your shopping experience from the comfort of your home. This is as good as though you are shopping in-store.
How does live help work for a custom design consultation?
LIVE HELP is ideal if you want a detailed discussion about your custom-made engagement ring. Your consultant will show you our ring designs live and help narrow down the design to the one you want to customise. Or you can experience our exclusive Moi Moi My Ring Designer app, which will give you design specs, and an instant quote for your custom-made designs at the end of the virtual consultation.
What happens if I don’t like my ring when I receive it?
This in fact rarely happens, because the crafting of your ring only happens with your approval of the computer aided drawing (CAD) which shows all the design elements, measurements, angles of the ring so you can be assured as to what you will receive. Custom made is usually non-refundable but however, if you are not happy then we can remake it for you for a nominal sum.
