5 Modern Takes on the Traditional Engagement Ring

Though fine jewelry is typically thought of as a gift to receive from special someone, what’s more empowering than purchasing something beautiful and precious for yourself? Whether it marks an achievement (a promotion or new job, perhaps?) or a “just because” moment, a piece of jewelry enjoys longevity and holds emotional value that will last for years to come.

Enter the Ten/Ten capsule collection from the De Beers Group. The diamond pioneer tapped 10 independent jewelers to interpret the modern engagement ring, using their singular visions to showcase ethically sourced Botswanan diamonds. Though originally conceived as ceremonial jewelry, these limited-edition stunners (only 10 of each style were made) are equally impactful as fashion pieces to wear and cherish, no matter which finger it adorns or what your relationship status is. Celebrate your most important—and longest—relationship and make a commitment to yourself. Sold exclusively on Blue Nile, the designs range from abstract to vintage and minimal, yet all let the sparkle and brilliance of the diamond shine through.
