Jemma Wynne’s signature open engagement design is a chic spin on the two stone “Moi and Toi” rings that date back to the the eighteenth century. In the past the gems touched each other. The open element on these gives them a subtly sexy look.

The Oui collection by Nikos Koulis features riffs on traditional engagement ring styles. Bold black enamel elements add drama. He also uses a variety of gems for the center stones. A 8.05-carat oval ruby set shines at the center of the ring above. A oval shape yellow diamond sparkles in the design on the right that’s somewhat reminiscent of Meghan Markle’s ring.

Jessica McCormack’s diamond, blackened and yellow gold engagement rings pay homage to the button back style of the Georgian period. “The technique shapes and encases the back of the diamond in gold, which increases the refraction of the light, producing a magical depth to the stone,” explains McCormack. “The diamond sits low to the finger and close to the skin, and the smooth gold finish enclosing the diamond keeps the stone as sparkly as possible.”
