Vintage Sapphire Engagement Rings
Rediscover a classic with our Vintage Sapphire Engagement Rings. While sapphires have been popular for centuries, the vintage era (specifically the 1940s through the 1980s) redefined how this "royal" stone was worn. Our collection features vintage pieces that blend the deep, dependable blues of the sapphire with the innovative, bold metalwork of the mid-20th century for a timeless yet unique look.
Our vintage sapphire engagement rings offer the perfect balance of tradition and personality. Known for their incredible hardness and durability, these sapphires have been preserved in settings that range from elegant Mid-Century Modern to the dramatic "Princess" styles of later decades. These are rings designed to be worn, loved, and eventually passed down as the next generation's treasured antiques.

The Depth of Vintage Sapphires
In our collection of vintage sapphire engagement rings, you will find a stunning spectrum of blues. From the bright, electric blues of the 1960s to the deep, velvety tones of the earlier vintage era, each stone has its own unique "life." Vintage sapphires are often set in 18ct white gold or platinum, a combination that has become the gold standard for elegance in engagement jewellery, emphasising the stone's cool richness.
Signature Vintage Styles
Vintage sapphire rings are famous for their "cluster" and "ballerina" settings, where the central sapphire is surrounded by a "tutu" of diamonds. Other popular styles include the "three-stone" or "trilogy" ring, representing the couple's past, present, and future. The metalwork of this era is often more substantial than antique pieces, providing a secure and comfortable fit for the modern wearer while maintaining a high-fashion edge.
A Meaningful Proposal Choice
Proposing with a vintage sapphire engagement ring is a nod to a heritage of loyalty and trust. The sapphire is the traditional stone of "faithfulness," making it the ultimate symbol for a marriage commitment. Its timeless appeal ensures it will never go out of style, making it the perfect choice for the bride who wants a ring that is both a fashion statement and a sacred promise of a life shared together.
