Your guide to the perfect ring – Gold of Sweden

An engagement and wedding ring is something you’ll wear for a long time, so it’s important to find a style you’re happy with. That’s why the rings in Gold of Sweden’s collections are designed to stand the test of time – but of course we keep an eye on all the exciting trends that are currently in vogue, says Hanna Waldenström.

Five trends are particularly prominent right now

Unconventional diamond shapes

-For many people, the classic round, brilliant-cut diamond is the obvious choice when it comes to selecting a stone for an engagement ring, but we’re seeing a trend where more and more people are opting for other shapes to give their engagement rings a more personal touch. The shapes gaining the most traction are oval and emerald-cut diamonds, but we’re also likely to see more pear-shaped and navette-cut stones. We are also seeing growing interest in two-stone rings, known as ‘Toi et moi’, often featuring diamonds of different shapes.

Nature as a source of inspiration

– The trend of drawing inspiration from nature remains strong, and we’re likely to see more romantic rings with beautiful details in the future.

The sustainability trend

– Interest in sustainability, the environment and recycled materials also continues to grow and is an important factor for many couples when choosing rings. Choosing rings made from recycled gold is a trend that seems to be here to stay, and we’re also seeing growing interest in the manufacturing process and ensuring it’s carried out sustainably.

Interest in lab-grown diamonds

– Lab-grown diamonds are becoming increasingly popular, and we see no signs that the trend is slowing down – quite the opposite! In terms of price, lab-grown diamonds are significantly cheaper than natural ones, which of course also makes them an attractive option if you’re looking for a larger stone within your budget. Many people also feel that a lab-grown diamond is a better choice for the environment and see the benefits of not contributing to the environmental impact caused by mining. However, it is a contentious issue as to whether lab-grown or natural diamonds have the lowest carbon footprint; the various advocates present widely differing figures regarding how much energy is consumed in the production of a diamond.

Custom designs

– Custom-designed rings are more popular than ever, and we are seeing increased demand for unique and personalised rings.
