When shopping for engagement rings, you may come across rings labeled “Designer Engagement Rings”, but what does that mean? These ring designs are often branded, making them signature pieces of the company they represent. Buyers often remember designer names and style, as they are typically associated with aristocracy—and, in turn, higher price points.
Some of the most well-known engagement ring designers include Tiffany & Co., Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, and Neil Lane. These brands are considered luxury lifestyle brands, commonly worn by both celebrities and royalty. Like couture clothing, designer jewelry is of the highest quality and features stunning detail and design work. These rings and jewels come at a higher price, but the work put into each designer piece goes beyond any stock design. Designer engagement rings—like all designer pieces—are set to the highest caliber of perfection.
Some of the best engagement ring designers and their flagship brands also create collections for mainstream buyers, lending their names to designs that are found in retail jewelry stores. Designers Vera Wang and Neil Lane both have created engagement ring designs for the masses. However, jewelry brands like Tacori may also be deemed “designer.”
