Couples today seem to be embracing the thought of both partners wearing a ring to signify their engagement, and rings for men seem to have become more popular over time. Engagement rings for men differ from the ones designed for women in the sense that they focus more on bolder designs, strength, and simplicity. Whether it is a classic band, modern design, or more personalized rings, there is a lot that can be done. 

For men’s engagement rings, simple one piece non decorated bands made of a single metal are one of the most enduring selections out there. Such rings are available in gold, platinum, titanium, and tungstan. Gold is often the best option due to its large selection which includes yellow, white, and rose gold. Platinum is exceptionally lustrious and fancy looking, giving it an edge over those wanting a subtle but high-end look. If one wantes a more rugged modern appeal with great strength, titanium and tungsten are an excellent choice.

For those seeking to incorporate a subtle hint of glamour into their accessories, the diamond-accented engagement ring provides just that. Small diamonds can be painstakingly placed on the band using channel or bezel settings and still achieve the refined masculine appeal. Even black diamonds serve more than just a basic purpose because they can be used to achieve a sophisticated yet bold and edgy aesthetic. These diamonds can be placed as a single stone or scattered across the band.

Signet rings have been around for centuries, but only recently have designers begun to consider them for engagement rings. These rings come with a flat or slightly raised surface meant to be engraved with initials, some important dates, or even family crests. Personalization fused with an antiquated take on design makes the signet style perfect for men who appreciate aesthetics. Not only do these styles look good, but their gold, platinum, or silver materials add timeless beauty too.

For the polished gentleman who seeks further beyond smooth bands, a textured ring is sure to satisfy. Gunmetal and carbon weave are some of the most popular textured styles, especially for men’s wedding bands. Other designs use unique materials, like wood or even meteorite inlays, to incorporate nature in a stunning way. Other more intricate patterns add additional flair, such as engravings of celtic knots or geometric motifs.

The gemstone is the most defining feature of a ring, making it easy over the years to set a traditional choice: Diamonds. However, alternative options such as sapphires, emeralds, and even onyx have gained enough traction to serve as equally stunning engagement rings. A blue sapphire ring, full of wisdom and loyalty can be a breathtaking addition to any collection. Emeralds with deep greens signify growth while cutting onyx adds a modern, sleek look that can either be set in the center or subtly placed on the band.

Another stunning addition is combining individual rings with two or more metals, instantly adding interest while still retaining contrast. A long-standing classic is a two-tone ring featuring yellow gold with platinum, or rose gold and black titanium. Not only does this draw attention, but it enhances how easily these can be paired with other accessories and jewelery, making them practical for everyday wear.

As with any piece of jewelry, men’s engagement rings require personal touch. Personalization caters to custom-made designs of rings. Enhanced styles and structural changes made with the aid of technology make alterations to fit the set preferences and tastes of every customer bringing art and individuality in every ring.
