Bezel-Set Engagement Rings

A bezel-set engagement ring has a modern edge but an ancient history as one of the oldest settings that has circled back into style. The stone is encircled with metal, which slightly overlaps the edge to keep it safe. This is one of, if not the number one, most secure settings for a ring, so it’s a perfect style for people who use their hands a lot. Celebrities like model Poppy Delevingne are known for rocking a bezel-set engagement ring, looking fashionable and glamorous while doing so.

If you’re interested in a bezel-set engagement ring, check out a couple of our favorites below.

Toi et Moi Engagement Rings

“Toi et Moi,” sometimes referred to as “Moi et Toi,” means “you and me” in French. These rings feature two stones that represent the love between two people. The style first gained popularity in 1796, when Napoleon Bonaparte gifted his wife, Joséphine de Beauharnais, a Toi et Moi ring featuring a diamond and a sapphire. Today, Toi et Moi rings are popular with celebrities like Megan Fox. Shop a couple of Toi et Moi-style rings at Shane Co. below.

Geometric Engagement Rings

Geometric engagement rings are uniquely shaped, often incorporating symmetrical lines or patterns. A common era of geometric engagement rings was between the 1920s and ’30s, when Art Deco was all the rage. This popular design style featured many geometrical styles in jewelry, art, and architecture. Geometric can be a broad-ranging collection of looks, but we highlight one of our Shane Co. geometric engagement rings below.
