What Does Your Engagement Ring Cut Say About You?

Engagement rings aren’t just symbols of love and commitment.

They’re also fashion statements that say a lot about the wearer. Are you traditional, or edgy? Do you live for the thrill, or are you more reserved? There’s a cut for every personality, and a personality for every cut. Find out which one matches yours:

Round

The future bride who gravitates towards a round cut ring is a traditionalist who loves all things classy and classic. Like this cut, she’s elegant, but in an understated way. Her grace and polish make her stand out from the crowd, even if she doesn’t want to be the center of attention.

Shop our round cut rings such as The Grace, The Star Light, and The Rose.

Cushion

Pure elegance and femininity are the trademarks of a cushion cut ring, as they are for the wearer. Like the round cut, cushion cuts are traditional, but they make a bolder statement. Cushion cut wearers are just as comfortable sipping tea at The Palace as they are sitting in a cozy cottage by the beach; they’re adaptable and ready to embrace life, whatever may come.

Our cushion cut rings include The Lovely, The Evermore, and The Layla.

Princess

It should come as no surprise that the royals at heart are drawn to the princess cut. They’re looking for their fairytale ending, the happily ever after that starts the moment the ring is on their finger. They’re hopeless romantics, but they also know how to let go, have fun, and stop taking life so seriously.

The perfect rings for a princess at heart include The Princess, The Olivia, and The Amore.

Oval

Unique, elegant, and radiant. Are we talking about the cut, or the wearer? Both. Oval cut rings combine the classic elegance of round cut with the royal flair of princess to offer a ring shape that’s fit for a queen. Brides who are drawn to oval cut rings are confident in who they are and aren’t afraid to show it.

Beautiful oval cut rings from Modern Gents include The Ava, The Belle, and The Queen.

Emerald

A cut as bold as emerald is suited for the fashionista, the edgy yet sophisticated gal who keeps a hawk-eye out for every opportunity and grabs it without hesitation. Nights out on the town, glamorous vacations to ritzy destinations, and a closet full of clothes are the wants and needs of an emerald cut bride.

Check out The Alexandria if emerald sounds like your kind of cut.

Marquise

Marquise. It just sounds glamorous, doesn’t it? Vintage glamour-lovers are drawn to the old-fashioned flair offered by a marquise cut ring. This is a strong, bold cut that demands the spotlight (and deservingly gets it). Wearers of this ring live life fully and completely, and they turn a few heads while they do so.

You can find elegant marquise cut rings The Victoria and The Cambria at Modern Gents.

Pear

Thrill-seeker and adventurer are just some of the words that come to mind to describe the wearer of a pear cut ring. The elongated teardrop shape naturally draws attention and effortlessly impresses. Pear cut wearers look for the novelty in life and enthusiastically anticipate the future.

Some of our pear cut rings include The Bliss, The Scarlett, and The Daisy.

Heart

Oh, those hopeless romantics. Those rose-colored lens wearing, Valentine’s Day loving, big white wedding brides who live for the romance and give with all their heart. They need a ring that matches the tone of their life, and what’s more appropriate than a heart-shaped ring?

Our favorite romantic heart-shaped ring is The Sweetheart.
