Collection: Emerald Engagement Rings

An antique emerald ring is older than 100 years old, while a vintage emerald ring typically dates from between 20 and 100 years ago. Antique emerald rings includes design periods such as the Georgian, Victorian, Art Nouveau and Art Deco eras. Vintage emerald rings include styles from the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s, as well as distinctive late 20th-century dress rings.

At Jewellery Discovery, the most popular emerald ring style is the three-stone, or trilogy ring, featuring a central emerald flanked by a diamond on either side. Close behind is the classic cluster ring, showcasing an oval or shaped emerald surrounded by a sparkling border of diamonds. Emerald target rings are also enjoying a resurgence in popularity. Originally a beloved design of the 1920s, their distinctive concentric arrangement of gemstones offers a timeless and elegant appeal.

Colombian emeralds are considered some of the finest emeralds in the world. They are highly prised for their vivid green colour, exceptional transparency and rarity. Emeralds for these mine in good quality are very hard to source.

As emeralds naturally contain inclusions and are often treated with oils to enhance their appearance, it is important to avoid ultrasonic or jewellery cleaners, as well as harsh cleaning solutions. To care for an emerald ring safely, simply clean it with warm water and a soft brush, then dry gently with a lint-free cloth.
