Choosing the perfect gemstone for an engagement ring is a big decision, as it reflects your unique love story and personal style. While diamonds are the traditional choice, many couples are now exploring other stunning gemstones.
Here’s a look at some of the best options for engagement rings, focusing on the four precious gemstones: sapphires, rubies, diamonds, and emeralds.
1. Sapphire Rings
Sapphires are renowned for their rich blue color, but did you know they come in nearly every colour (including white)? Known for their durability, sapphires are an excellent choice for everyday wear. Their timeless elegance has been favored by royalty for centuries, most famously in Princess Diana's (now Kate Middleton's) engagement ring. Sapphires symbolize wisdom and good fortune, making them a meaningful choice for an engagement ring.
