What Diamond Shapes Are Most Suitable for a vintage inspired Engagement Ring Setting?

Our vintage and Art Deco settings are designed to showcase the zeitgeist of their respective eras, offering a bolder and more streamlined take on jewellery. The diamonds and gemstones within these rings often take unusual shapes to match the era’s aesthetic. Suitable cuts for this style include baguette, emerald, shield, marquise, triangle, and asscher, known for their step cuts and geometric square-rectangle shapes.

A Brief History of Vintage & Art Deco Engagement Rings

The Art Deco style emerged before its official naming at the 1925 Paris World Fair: International Exposition of Modern Industrial and Decorative Arts. Shaped by various inspirations, including cubism’s geometric shapes and Fauvism’s vibrant colours, Art Deco reached its peak from the 1920s to the 1930s. If you’re a lover of classic, vintage-inspired design, an Art Deco engagement ring might be the perfect choice to express your timeless style.
