Cluster Ring

If you’re looking to opt out of a solo stone setting, consider selecting a cluster engagement ring. This statement style includes an array of smaller diamonds or gemstones to create the look of a larger stone.

Raw Stone

If edgy is often used to describe your style, then a raw stone could be the perfect option for you. Raw refers to an uncut stone that has not been shaped or polished. This one-of-a-kind style is currently a popular trend in engagement rings.
