Choosing the perfect engagement ring to suit your hand.

Everyone is different when it comes to personal preferences and their dream engagement ring design. However, did you know it's important to consider your finger’s proportions and shape for your perfect ring?

Here at Diamond Elite we’ve put together some general tips to find the most suitable diamond shape for your hand.

Best engagement ring design for long and slender fingers:

Go for delicate bands: Thin bands help elongate the appearance of slender fingers without overwhelming them. Consider bands that are 2mm or less in width.

Solitaire Rings: Solitaire rings with a single diamond draws attention to the gemstone without overpowering the finger. Our team at Chatswood will help you find the perfect diamond to suit your budget while providing different options to suit your taste and budget.

Pear, Oval, or Marquise cut: These elongated shapes can complement slender fingers by adding length without excessive width. They create an illusion of length, making the fingers appear more balanced.

Remember, the most important thing is to choose a ring that reflects your personal style and preferences.

To ensure you find the perfect engagement ring for slender fingers we highly recommend organising a consultation with our friendly staff and view our selection of diamond engagement rings. While we showcase a comprehensive range of diamond engagement rings online, we highly recommend trying on a ring in person for a whole new experience.

Best engagement ring design for wider fingers:

When choosing an engagement ring for wider & thicker fingers, you'll want to focus on styles that compliment your hand while still maintaining balance and proportion.

Here are some ring designs that tend to look great on wider fingers:

Wide Bands: Opt for wider bands that can complement the width of your finger without looking too delicate. Bands that are 2mm or wider can provide a good balance.

Bold and Statement Rings: Consider bold and intricate designs that make a statement on larger fingers. Look for rings with elaborate details or feature multiple accent stones.

Example: Adelaide Cushion Diamond Halo & Sidestones Engagement Ring 

Emerald or Radiant Cut Diamonds: These rectangular-shaped diamonds can complement the width of thicker fingers as these shapes are generally longer in length than width therefore creating an illusion of length.

Three-Stone Rings: Three-stone rings with larger centre stones and smaller side stones can create a balanced look on thicker fingers. The trio of stones adds visual interest and draws attention to the centre of the ring.

Halo Settings: Halo settings feature a centre stone surrounded by a halo of smaller diamonds or gemstones. This design can enhance the overall sparkle and presence of the ring, making it well-suited for larger fingers.
