What the experts say: “I have long been attracted to the rich design vocabulary of the Art-Deco period,” explained London bespoke jewellery designer Rachel Boston, “And my clients can’t get enough of it when it comes to engagement rings.”
“It’s such an extensive style that offers something for every taste: whether a five-stone ring with all-emerald cut diamonds or an old antique mine cut surrounded by a modern baguette halo. It’s one of the reasons for this aesthetics’ enduring success: you are guaranteed a chic, timeless piece with a lot of considered design details, ranging from very classic to completely extravagant. There is something for everyone, and I can’t see the appeal of Art-Deco inspired pieces slowing down anytime soon.”
2. MIXED METALS
What the experts say: “Mixed metals are really popular at the moment, and I don’t see this trend going anywhere,” Emma Clarkson Webb, bespoke London jewellery designer, revealed. “My clients are combining yellow and white gold and rose and white gold, which gives a really lovely, impactful look. Traditionally it was an absolute no to mix metals, so I love that it’s back in fashion; it makes for such a versatile look and means that you aren’t limited in terms of your other jewellery.”
“A trend we have noticed growing steadily is the demand for mixed metal rings,” agreed Eliza Walter, Founder of Lylie. “Whilst the gold price has been rocketing up, the platinum price has remained steadier over the past couple of years. Platinum is a very strong metal, which is perfect for an engagement ring. However, gold is still the metal colour of choice, so what we have seen is the rise of mixed metal rings.”
“By choosing a platinum setting you get the strength and security whilst making diamonds look even bigger. This coupled with a yellow gold band or detailing you can maintain the overall yellow gold feel to the ring. All of our Ethical Engagement Ring collection pieces are available in mixed metal and it is by far the most popular option.”
