Solitaire 

The solitaire ring design is a timeless, elegant setting. As the name suggests, the centre of the ring holds a single diamond (or coloured gemstone) for a refined air of simplicity. The prongs position the central stone so that it shimmers in the light and catches your eye.

A design with four prongs gives the stone an angular shape for a contemporary feel, while a setting with six prongs gives the diamond a rounder, more classic shape.

At BAUNAT, you can choose from our stunning solitaire engagement rings in yellow, white and red gold or platinum. To create a unique look with a splash of colour, use a ruby, emerald, or sapphire as the centre stone.

Ruby

The ruby is a pink to blood-red coloured gemstone and a variety of the mineral corundum. Rubies are considered the gemstone of love, energy, passion and power. 

Across the world, goldsmiths have adorned crowns, tiaras and other crown jewels with blood-red rubies since the stone is a symbol of protection and prosperity. 

Aside from diamonds, rubies are the scarcest gemstones in existence and have always been very valuable. The deep red colour makes jewellery with rubies an excellent Christmas or anniversary gift. 

Ultimately, people see the ruby's unique colour and sparkle as a symbol of love, making them perfect for an engagement ring. Set your ruby in yellow gold to get that royal look!
