hexagonal engagement rings combine sophistication and modern appeal. This unique, six-sided shape extends across the finger in a graceful way, giving it a slimming and elongating appearance. This is the perfect choice for brides-to-be who are looking for elegance and a little bit of artistry.
The elongated hexagon is not only visually striking, but its extended facets also maximize carat appearance. They reflect light in a dramatic way, creating the illusion that the diamond or gems are larger. The elongated design of the hexagon is beautiful and stylish, whether it's in a solitaire or accented with a halo.
The Rise of Elongated Hexagon Diamond Engagement Rings
The hexagonal diamond engagement ring has gained popularity among couples looking for a more modern cut than the round or oval. The ring combines the classic sparkle of diamonds with the modern edge of geometric designs. It is a favorite of many brides because:
-
A modern flair: a departure from the classic ovals or circles creates an instant sense of style-forward thinking.
-
Visual Length : The elongated form flatters the hands and fingers, increasing elegance.
-
Versatility : this design adapts to a variety of settings from vintage inspired intricate bands, through simple banding.
The brilliant-cut facets of this ring are perfect for those who love unique designs, but also cherish tradition.
A Guide to Hexagon Engagement Rings
Curious about the hexagon engagement ring trend? You’re not alone. These rings—defined by their six straight sides—upend the typical shape hierarchy with unmistakable flair.
What Makes a Hexagon Ring Stand Out
The hexagon ring is a geometric shape that stands out for its sharp angles. Hexagons are more architectural than other shapes, such as ovals and cushions. They appeal to designers because they have an attractive, bold feel. The pointed angles also catch fragments of light, creating an unusual and mesmerizing sparkle pattern.
Choose between Elongated Hexagon and Standard Hexagon
Two popular hexagonal shapes are:
-
Standard hexagon : with equal side, it says "bold and balanced."
-
Elongated Hexagon: stretched horizontally to flatter slender fingers while maintaining the hexagon's structure appeal.
If you are unsure, consider your finger size and style. For brides or those with longer fingers, elongated hexagons are perfect. Standard hexagons are perfect for those who like symmetry but want a modern, relaxed geometry.
Hexagon Diamond Ring—Beauty Meets Brilliance
The hexagonal diamond ring combines the elegant beauty of diamonds with six-sided artistic geometry. Diamonds are enduring, durable, and have a long-term worth. These are the reasons why so many people choose to buy diamonds with these bright shapes.
-
Superior Fire: diamonds cut with precision disperse the light in a spectacular way, accentuating every aspect.
-
Timeless Allure: Diamonds in hexagonal shapes stand out with elegance and edge.
Diamond hexagon rings also look great in halos and side stone settings, which add drama.
Exploring Hexagon Engagement Rings
Choose wisely by comparing the most popular hexagonal engagement rings.
Solitaire Hexagon Engagement Rings
The shape of a solitaire heart set in a hexagonal setting is prominently displayed. Select prongs that are minimal and sharp to highlight the geometric design. This will create a modern, sleek look. What is the result? The result?
Halo Hexagon Engagement Rings
Do you want more sparkle? You can surround your central stone in hexagonal setting with smaller diamonds. This results in a refined sparkle and brilliance, ideal for anyone who loves sparkles with structure.
Hexagonal Three-Stone Settings
Combining a hexagonal center with stones on the sides, such as tapered baguettes and micro-pave bands will create a statement that is both symmetrical and bold. This bold design gives you depth, artistry, and significance all at the same time.
Choosing the Perfect Elongated Hexagon Diamond Engagement Ring
It is important to keep in mind four factors when shopping:
Reduce Quality
For a sparkling diamond or moissanite, make sure it has a perfect symmetry.
Clarity & Color
Select a clarity grade that is flawless and that matches your skin tone.
The Carat Weight and Proportions
You can maximize carat size by using hexagons. For the perfect appearance, focus on exact length to width ratios.
Set in Metal
Select settings based on your personal taste, such as platinum, rose gold, white gold or yellow gold. White gold, for example, highlights sparkle while rose gold adds warmth and individuality.
