It can be hard to choose between the amazing engagement ring styles available, such as halo, pavé, and three stone. The solitaire engagement ring stands apart for its timeless, understated style. If you’re looking for a minimalist yet stunning ring, look no further than a solitaire.

A solitaire engagement ring lets the diamond take center stage. It looks beautiful on its own and paired with most wedding band styles. A solitaire engagement ring style is perfect if your main focus is the diamond. Since we select less than 1 in 10 of the diamonds we consider at Robbins Brothers, all of our diamonds are dazzling in a solitaire setting.

If you’re looking for something more customizable or intricate, you might prefer a style such as a halo or three stone, which still highlight the center diamond, but add unique touches. Below are examples of emerald-cut center diamonds in non-solitaire styles:

Our reimagined classic solitaire engagement rings draw from our 102 years of experience and our modern sensibilities. The result is a remarkable collection of hand-selected diamonds and the perfect engagement ring settings to showcase them. All diamond cuts work beautifully in a solitaire setting. Below are some of the most popular:

• Oval Cut  – Oval is one always a favorite diamond cut for solitaire engagement rings. Its large surface area lets the diamond truly shine.
• Round Brilliant Cut – A round cut diamond is also known as a brilliant cut diamond because it reflects the most light.

• Princess Cut – A princess cut diamond has a modern style and its chevron pattern can lead to greater scintillation (flashes of light).
