Look For Vintage-Inspired Engagement Rings
If you're not able to find an authentic vintage engagement ring that suits your needs, don't worry!

Choose A Metal That Complements the Vintage Style
When it comes to vintage engagement rings, the metal is just as important as the design. Traditional vintage rings were typically made from yellow gold or platinum, but modern vintage-style rings may feature rose gold or white gold as well. Choose a metal that complements the vintage style you're going for, and consider the durability and maintenance requirements of each option.
As vintage inspired engagement rings and wedding rings have become increasingly popular, many have chosen vintage designs for their engagement ring whilst also incorporating modern elements to achieve a more personalised flair. Customising the metal and design of your vintage style engagement ring is a great way to achieve a more modern adaptation of a vintage style.
Select a Gemstone That Speaks To You
Vintage engagement rings often feature stunning gemstones, such as diamonds, sapphires, and emeralds. When selecting a vintage-style engagement ring, choose a gemstone that speaks to you and reflects your personal style. Whether you prefer a classic diamond or a colourful gemstone, there are plenty of options available to create a truly unique and beautiful engagement ring.
More recently, a popular choice amongst individuals getting engaged is emerald coloured gemstones due to their timeless appeal and classic deep green colour.
