Explore the incredibly classic and especially unique engagement ring collections designed by David Gardner.
Custom is a great choice if you prefer a unique take on a timeless design or want to incorporate a sentimental element in the ring with which you propose. Here are just some of the special details that your DG engagement ring can have to spark your inspiration as you embellish the classic engagement ring or start designing one from scratch.
Ways to Customize a Classic Engagement Ring at DG
Baguettes or SIDE stones
While a classic engagement ring can stand on its own, consider stepping up its style with a series of elements that harken back to previous generations or a specific period like the Art Deco era. For instance, you can personalize your ring with baguettes or fancy-shaped diamonds down the shank.
Colored accent stone
Give a nod to a significant month when you add a colored accent stone to your custom engagement ring design. Whether it’s the month you met, your birth months, or any other special month that stands out in your relationship, it’s a simple way to enhance the sentimentality of the ring. One of our favorite uses of colored accent stones was the ring we designed for Champagne & Chanel. The design incorporated sapphires to represent Lee’s family’s dedication to law enforcement.
Initials
Another detail to incorporate in your custom ring from DG is your partner’s initials or both of your initials. For instance, one of our clients upgraded his wife Wendie’s engagement ring by incorporating two “W”s into the setting. We love the subtlety of this design element and are thrilled with how the finished ring turned out.
Secret details
If a solitaire-style view from the top is important to her, consider adding a unique element in the side view of the ring. The gallery area of an engagement ring is one popular place to include unexpected details; include a hidden halo or hidden diamond under the center stone as a fun surprise.
Consider engraving a special message, your initials, or the date you met into the band of the ring.
A retrospective style with a hint of modernity
Solitaire styles will never go out of style. But why not make yours stand out from the crowd with a touch of personality? We’re loving this solitaire design with a twist of diamond accent stones that bridges from one of the prongs to the shank.
A unique center stone shape
Think outside the box when it comes to your classic engagement ring’s center stone. Go with a radiant, marquise, pear-shaped, or cushion-cut diamond. It’s amazing just how much a unique center stone shape can add character to an otherwise traditional style.
Pair it with a ring stack
When you create or customize a classic engagement ring at David Gardner’s, we’ll help you choose complementary rings for a personalized ring stack. After all, the more the merrier when it comes to all things shiny and sparkly!
