Simple Engagement Rings

Simple engagement rings tend to have a single center stone set on a thin metal band. The highly adaptable nature of these pieces makes it easy to experiment with different diamond shapes, carat weights, settings, and precious metals for a ring that truly speaks to your journey as a couple.

One of the major benefits of minimalist engagement rings is the lack of adornments can lead the center stone to look larger. This type of engagement ring is also one of the most customizable, acting as a blank canvas to bring your dreams to life.

From classic yellow gold bands with a simple round brilliant diamond to a platinum setting with an emerald cut center stone, simple engagement rings for women are the best choice for the traditional or minimalist bride.

FAQs About Simple Engagement Rings

Can an engagement ring be simple?

An engagement ring can absolutely be simple, especially if your bride gravitates towards a minimalist aesthetic for her lifestyle or jewelry. Plus, simple engagement rings are some of the most classic, which makes them highly sought after. Due to their parred-back designs, these types of engagement rings are also easy to incorporate into everyday wear, making them highly preferable for low-maintenance women or those who don't want anything too flashy.

Why are simple engagement rings expensive?

The price of simple engagement rings majorly depends on the characteristics of the center stone, known as the 4C's for diamonds. This encompasses the cut, color, clarity, and carat weight of the chosen stone, and as these factors change, so does the price of the diamond and the overall engagement ring. Since simple rings have a minimalist style, it's not uncommon to invest in a luxurious center stone because it's the true star of the show.

Out of all the 4C's, carat weight has the most significant impact on the price, so if you're seeking a more affordable engagement ring, opt for a lower weight. However, if the size of the stone is extra important for your ring, you can always consider moissanite or lab grown diamonds, which yield much higher carat weights at a fraction of the cost of natural diamonds.

Additionally, the precious metal of a simple engagement ring will affect the price, with platinum as the most expensive, followed by white, yellow, and rose gold, respectively.

What is the most simple engagement ring?

The most simple engagement ring, and one of the most classic designs, is a round brilliant diamond with a solitaire setting on a 2 or 3 millimeter yellow gold band.

Why are simple engagement rings better?

Many people prefer simple engagement rings because they match well with most wedding bands and are easy to wear on a day-to-day basis. More elaborate engagement rings can be flashy, attract unwanted attention, and feel uncomfortable when paired with a wedding band, leading to the popularization of minimalist designs.

What is a minimalist engagement ring?

A minimalist engagement ring tends to have a center stone with a simple solitaire setting on a thin, precious metal band made from platinum, yellow, or white gold. Minimalist engagement rings tend to forgo the extra adornments or unique features for a classic, streamlined look.
