There are plenty of good reasons why natural diamonds are sought-after and loved by people across the globe. Not only do they have an enviable sparkle, but they’re also one of the toughest rocks known to mankind. Also, does any other gem speak volumes about “eternal love” like a diamond? We don’t think so.
However, the popularity of natural diamond jewellery is not restricted to just engagement rings and wedding bands. There’s a whole world of categories and design options out there that’ll blow your mind. In this article, we’ll spotlight some of the finest natural diamond jewellery – from classic to contemporary.
Our All-Time Favourite Timeless Classics
Diamond Tennis Bracelet: Here is a legendary design for which we all need to thank Chris Evert. Back in 1987, the famous tennis star with an impeccable style lost her delicate wristband embellished with a continuous row of diamonds right in the middle of the match. Everything came to a standstill, but eventually, the bracelet was found, and so was a new icon of wearable luxury. Today, you can find extraordinary variations of the diamond tennis bracelet. However, at its core, it will always remain a timeless design – one that became a symbol of empowerment, a declaration that luxury could be worn with ease and confidence, even on the most active days.
Infinity Diamond Pendant Necklace: A promise of never-ending love, the diamond infinity pendant packs a punch with beauty and symbolism. This classic design has always been a favourite of die-hard romantics for all the right reasons. In addition to being elegant and meaningful, many find the infinity symbol a powerful representation of unending possibilities and the interconnected journey of life. So, if you love diamonds and prefer designs with a deeper meaning, this pendant might just be what you need.
Diamond Solitaire Ring: Nothing defines the sentiment of “simple is beautiful” better than this classic beauty. A diamond solitaire refers to a single diamond that can be showcased in a variety of jewellery; the most popular among them is, obviously, a diamond solitaire ring. But now, it can be flaunted in numerous ways, including diamond solitaire pendants, diamond solitaire stud earrings, and even diamond solitaire nose pins. Besides the classic round and oval diamond solitaire, you can experiment with many other beautiful shapes like marquise, trillion, and baguettes.
The Much-Loved Contemporary Showstoppers
The Floating Diamond Pendant: One of our absolute favourites, this modern and minimalist jewellery creation is perfect for everyday wear. Its main characteristic is a delicate chain that holds a single diamond suspended in mid-air, creating an illusion of weightlessness and sparkle. This illusion of a “floating diamond” is achieved through clever engineering and hidden mechanisms, such as the tension setting and hidden bail attachments. Trust us when we say the floating diamond pendant is more than a symbol of modern sophistication; it’s literally a conversation starter!
Toi et Moi Diamond Ring: Have you noticed how some of the most renowned celebrities have two-stone engagement rings? Well, take a good look at this contemporary piece of art, and you’ll know precisely why! Toi et Moi, French for “you and me”, is a versatile jewellery design especially popular for engagement rings. Typically, it showcases two diamonds in the same or contrasting shapes, set on the band in either a vertical or horizontal pattern. But it can be teamed up with any other gemstone, especially coloured ones, to create a spectacular piece of jewellery. One great example of a stunning Toi et Moi ring is Ariana Grande’s gorgeous sparkler, which showcases a pear-shaped diamond and elongated oval diamond on a delicate band. It’s modern yet romantic at the same time – what’s not to love?
Stackable Diamond Bangles: Why settle for one diamond bracelet when you can have a bunch of them? This super chic and modern trend allows you to create unique combinations that reflect your style and mood. You can explore and layer up stackable diamond bangles available in different widths, textures, and finishes. For example, we highly recommend pairing a couple of sleek white gold bangles with simple pave-set diamonds, along with chunky textured bangles with scattered diamond accents, for a look that’s sophisticated and fun at the same time.
Special Mention: Coloured Diamonds – A Must-Have for both Classic and Contemporary Jewellery Enthusiasts
Our love for diamonds has led us to many colourful discoveries; vibrant-hued variants of this precious gem happen to be one of them! Naturally coloured diamonds are rare and can come with an exorbitant price tag depending on the quality. However, you can also find coloured lab diamonds that are 100% real at more affordable prices. No matter which one you pick, coloured diamonds can effortlessly reflect a modern and classic vibe, depending on your chosen colour and design. For example, a blue diamond solitaire ring with a floral halo will be reminiscent of Princess Diana’s iconic sapphire engagement ring. On the other hand, if you pick black baguette diamonds set in a choker design, you’ve got yourself a bold and contemporary statement piece that will instantly grab attention.
