Engagement jewelry

An engagement ring is typically given during a proposal and usually features a center gemstone, most often a diamond or moissanite, in a setting that symbolizes commitment. A wedding ring (or wedding band) is exchanged during the wedding ceremony and is often a simpler metal band worn alongside the engagement ring.

There’s no set rule for how much to spend on an engagement ring, it’s entirely personal. At Chantal Vaulet, our engagement rings start around $100 for silver ones and can increase depending on your choice of stone, setting style, and metal. Whether you’re looking for a minimalist solitaire or a more elaborate halo design, there are stunning options for every budget.

Many people choose to wear both, stacking the wedding band beneath the engagement ring after the ceremony. However, some prefer a single ring that serves both purposes, especially if the design is elaborate or features a full eternity band.

Both lab-grown diamonds and moissanite are ethical, sustainable alternatives to mined diamonds. Lab diamonds offer the same physical and optical properties as natural diamonds, while moissanite provides exceptional brilliance and fire at a more accessible price point. The right choice depends on your values, budget, and aesthetic preference.

Yes! all Chantal Vaulet engagement rings are fully customizable. You can choose the stone shape, metal type, setting style, and other design details to create a one-of-a-kind ring that perfectly reflects your love story.

Classic solitaires, oval halos, and three-stone rings are among the most popular styles. Recently, hidden halos and vintage-inspired details have gained popularity for their romantic and timeless appeal.

Not at all. While diamonds are a traditional choice, moissanite, sapphires, morganite, and other gemstones can make a beautiful and unique alternative. The best ring is one that reflects your personal style and meaning!

Engagement rings are designed to be worn daily, but it’s important to consider your lifestyle. If you work with your hands or in an environment where your ring might get damaged, it’s a good idea to remove it during those times, or opt for a lower-profile setting for everyday wearability.

Some engagement rings are designed to pair seamlessly with a matching wedding band. However, many people prefer to choose their wedding band separately, giving them the freedom to mix metals, styles, or create a more unique stack.
