Petal Halo Diamond Rings with Yellow Gold

My current favorite design for engagement rings is available from a number of different companies. It is a center round brilliant diamond surrounded by a halo of round brilliant diamonds that make a petal shape. I am particularly loving this look with a yellow gold shank.

A few ways to find a ring that looks like this:
Hearts on Fire "Beloved" ring. Available online and at Baxter's Fine Jewelry in Warwick, RI.
Facets "FA8806" ring. Online and at Reed's Jewelers in Duxbury, MA.
ArtCarved "31-V371ERW" ring. Online or through various jewelers. 
Tacori "552RD65" ring. Online or at Baxter's (and other jewelers).

Tacori


I went looking for the Hearts on Fire Delight Lady Di ring and instead found this dazzler from Tacori - #552RD65. It's GORGEOUS. And an almost-flower.

Warm Tone Wedding in Peach, Tangerine and Orange

Now that I'm growing Easy Does It roses and Otto's Thrill dinner plate dahlias, I'm all about warm tones. A peach palette could go pastel for summer or deep orange for fall. Click the pictures below for sources.



Diamond Flower Engagement Rings from Pinterest

Thanks to Pinterest, I now find diamond rings with flowers and starbursts everywhere! Some of them say less "engagement" and more "special occasion" to me, but the possibilities are endless! So. Here is round 3 of the diamond flower rings.

Variations on a Theme

I was at Reeds last weekend getting my sister's engagement ring cleaned and saw a really lovely ring by Facets. It is essentially a diamond with a halo of smaller diamonds, but the shape is reminiscent of the flower rings - not just a perfect circle. This one is #8808 with a 1ct center stone, numbers 8804, 8806 and 8810 are the same style in different sizes.

Hearts on Fire makes a very similar ring, the Beloved Solitaire. I'm not quite sure how it's a solitaire when it includes so many diamonds, but maybe that means it doesn't have diamonds on the band? Either way, it's gorgeous! 


Leigh Jay Nacht in New York has an antique ring, circa 1950's, with a similar feel. They call it the R365 Cluster Ring. $5,400.
