Subtle Engagement Ring Clues
As with many couples, the idea of getting engaged had been discussed casually over some time. Kirrily would often point out rings she admired, sometimes a friend’s, sometimes someone passing by. ‘She’d mention how beautiful a ring was and how lucky someone must be to wear it,’ Pete says. ‘To her surprise, I was paying attention.’
Pete began building a mental archive of the styles Kirrily was drawn to. Clean lines, brilliant sparkle, and something that stands out were common themes. When the time came, he knew he wanted to design an unforgettable piece that would take her breath away.
He turned to Taylor & Hart to create a bespoke ring that captured everything he knew Kirrily loved. The result was a custom piece that was both dazzling and deeply personal. At its centre sits a beautifully round cut diamond that catches the light from every direction. That is only enhanced by the halo design and pavè band. Kirrily describes it as ‘so sparkly’ and admits she’s always getting compliments, which is such a nice full circle moment.
What makes the 18ct yellow gold ring even more personal is the small amethyst Signature Stone set inside the band. As Kirrily’s birthstone, Pete felt it was the perfect way to add something meaningful to an already thoughtful design. ‘It was the extra touch that made it hers,’ he says.
