Amethyst Engagement Rings

Step into a world of regal violet with our collection of Amethyst Engagement Rings. Historically associated with royalty and spirituality, the amethyst offers a striking and sophisticated alternative for a modern proposal. Our collection features a wide range of styles, from the hand-crafted treasures of the Georgian era to the bold, glamorous designs of the mid-20th century, all showcasing the vibrant beauty of this purple gemstone.

Each amethyst engagement ring in our gallery has been chosen for its rich saturation and clarity. Amethysts are known for their ability to complement both warm yellow gold and cool white metals, making them a versatile choice for any style of engagement ring. Whether you prefer a delicate antique cluster or a sleek vintage solitaire, these rings offer a unique way to express your personality and your commitment.

The Features of Amethyst Gemstones

The defining characteristic of an amethyst engagement ring is the stone's deep, alluring colour. Amethysts are a variety of quartz, meaning they are durable enough for daily wear while offering a brilliance that catches the light beautifully. Throughout history, amethysts were often "foil-backed" in the Georgian era to deepen their tone or set in "milgrain" borders during the Edwardian period to create a feminine, lace-like frame.

Designs Across the Centuries

Our collection spans various artistic movements. As well as Georgian amethyst engagement rings, you will find Victorian amethysts paired with seed pearls, Edwardian amethysts in fine platinum filigree, and Art Deco amethysts in bold geometric shapes. These variations reflect the changing tastes of history, but the amethyst itself remains a constant symbol of luxury. The variety of cuts - from soft cabochons to sharp emerald cuts - ensures that every ring has its own distinct character.

We also have a selection of vintage amethyst engagement rings should you want something a little more modern, yet steeped in history.

A Unique Choice for a Proposal

Choosing an amethyst engagement ring for your proposal is a wonderful way to celebrate a partnership that is as unique as the stone itself. The amethyst is traditionally associated with "peace," "clarity," and "steadfast love," making it a poetic talisman for a marriage. Its striking colour ensures it remains a conversation piece, providing a sophisticated vintage aesthetic for the bride who appreciates history, heritage, and a touch of the extraordinary.
