What Raw Diamond Ring Style Options Do I Have?

By ring styles, we mean the design of the band and the setting of your ring—the metal part of the ring. The options range from very simple and minimalist engagement rings to classic styles, rustic earthy styles, and finally, one-of-a-kind statement pieces.

Minimalist Style Engagement Rings

These rings have a simple band that uplifts the center stone as the main focal point. If you want to highlight the stone you've chosen—whether it's a rough diamond or a unique sapphire—this is a great option.

Another benefit of minimalist styles is that they can be added to later on with stacking rings to personalize your style.

Classic Style Engagement Rings

These rings reflect the timeless engagement ring styles of our day. However, placing a rough diamond inside transforms the concept entirely, blending structured human design with raw natural beauty.

This balance of perfection and imperfection creates an elegant, meaningful aesthetic.

These designs complement the rough diamond's natural aesthetic. Bands may be hammered or sandblasted to create a matte, earth-like texture.

If you love the raw, unrefined appeal of rough diamonds, this is the perfect style for you.
