Solitaire Engagement Rings – Simple, Timeless, and Smart Choice
Solitaire engagement rings are one of the most searched and purchased ring styles by couples. A solitaire ring features a single diamond at the center, making it a simple and timeless design that never goes out of style. Many couples prefer solitaire engagement rings over three-stone or cathedral settings because they are easier to maintain, cost less, and highlight the diamond itself. The focus remains on the stone’s brilliance, clarity, and cut rather than on side stones or extra metalwork.
When comparing prices, solitaire diamond rings are generally more affordable than multi-stone or cathedral rings. This is because three-stone and cathedral styles require more diamonds and craftsmanship, increasing the total price. With a solitaire setting, couples can invest more in the diamond’s quality or carat size instead of spending on additional detailing.
Round solitaire engagement rings are the best-selling shape due to their maximum sparkle and balanced appearance. Oval solitaire rings are popular for their elongated shape that looks larger on the finger. Emerald solitaire rings are chosen for their clean lines and vintage appeal. Each shape offers a unique look while keeping the focus on the diamond’s brilliance.
The price difference between lab-grown and natural diamonds is significant. A 1-carat lab diamond solitaire ring typically costs 60–70% less than a 1-carat natural diamond ring of the same cut and clarity. Lab diamonds are physically and visually identical to natural diamonds, offering the same sparkle and certification at a much lower cost.
At Fascinating Diamonds, you can find solitaire engagement rings in 1, 2, 3, and 5-carat sizes. Choose from pre-set solitaire rings or select your own diamond from our certified inventory. With transparent pricing, years of experience, and ethical sourcing, Fascinating Diamonds helps couples buy solitaire engagement rings with confidence and clarity.
