Attitudes are traits that are often overlooked when looking for the perfect engagement ring. However, the setting plays an essential role in the look and style of a ring.

Classic Engagement ring Settings include Solitaire, Halo, and Cluster, each of which adds extra detail, size, and charm to the overall ring design. While all of these are still popular with future brides, some just want something out of the ordinary.

For all couples looking for a one-of-a-kind ring, we’ve compiled a list of our preferred alternative settings. So sit back, relax and discover amazing designs that will leave you stunned.

1. Double halo

This incredible ring setting caught the eye of many women this year. It dates from the Victorian era, but is not considered a classic like its only counterpart.

If you are familiar with the traditional halo setting, you know how glamorous and dazzling the ring style is – imagine double the glam now! A halo setting features a ring of small, sparkling pavé-set diamonds that surround a center stone, making it shinier than ever. A double halo setting has two rings around the center diamond instead of one.

Double halo settings can be added to almost any diamond cut, creating the illusion of a larger center stone. So if you are looking for a ring that will turn heads, this setting style is guaranteed to turn heads.

2. East-west setting

This environment is ideal for those looking for something special and unique. It is an unusual design in which the center stone is placed horizontally rather than vertically on the ribbon as is usually used in more traditional styles.

When it comes to rings we are used to seeing so many similar designs – but this one is one that truly amazes, which is why it is often chosen by those looking to make a statement.

While all of the other elements of the ring, including the metal of the band and diamond cut, are nothing new, the horizontal setting adds a modern twist.

An east-west setting can be used with diamonds as well as precious stones in various cuts from pear to oval. It should be noted, however, that these elongated designs are often chosen for their ability to make the fingers appear slimmer. However, this is not the case with a horizontal setting.

3. Asymmetrical setting

Arianna Grande left us in awe when she unveiled her asymmetrically styled engagement ring last year. Since the picture reached the gram, the ring has been on everyone’s lips. An asymmetrical ring setting doesn’t come to mind when it comes to engagement rings, but they can look incredibly chic and beautiful, as the pop princess proved.

An asymmetrical setting is a great way to make a statement and stand out from the crowd. The offset designs are usually carefully made to draw the eye to the center stone or stones.

Obviously, this won’t be everyone’s taste, especially if you’re looking for order and alignment, but for those looking for something as unique as their love story, this is certainly an option to consider.

3. Three stone rings

Also called Trilogy rings, these are wonderfully designed to allude to the past, present and future of a particular community. This ring style is really a delightful and stylish way to express your love for one another.

You’ve probably guessed from the name that this unique ring style has three stones on the band, with the middle stone usually larger than the one on either side. This type of ring has been popular for a few decades, but a recent design resurgence can be linked to Meghan Markle’s spectacular piece.

If you are someone who wants to drip your fingers in diamonds this is the ring setting for you. From the front, the diamonds take center stage, with very little of the metal band visible.

4. Double pin adjustment

For a person looking to defy tradition, a two prong engagement ring setting might be the right choice for you. The prongs refer to the claw-like metal rods that help secure a diamond or gemstone to the band. In the classic solitaire style, these tines have a number of individual claws that are distributed around the stone.

A double prong setting consists of two claws arranged close together. A double prong setting not only gives the entire ring design a unique touch, but also offers more protection for the diamond or gemstone.

The setting type is best for diamond cuts that have more obvious corners as it can protect them from chips and hooks.

An engagement ring will symbolize love and commitment for many years, so finding the perfect ring is an important decision. A love story as unique as yours deserves a ring that is different, daring and undeniably beautiful – and all with a special setting style.
