Buying Guide
Everything you need to know about solitaire engagement rings.
The solitaire setting places all the focus on your diamond, making the quality of the stone paramount. Understanding the 4Cs — cut, colour, clarity, and carat — is essential when choosing a solitaire, as there are no accent stones to enhance the centre diamond's appearance. Our Melbourne-based gemologists are here to guide you through every detail, from selecting the ideal diamond shape to choosing between platinum, white gold, yellow gold, or rose gold bands.

A solitaire engagement ring features a single diamond or gemstone set on a plain band, with no additional accent stones. It is the most classic and enduring engagement ring style, prized for its simplicity and elegance. The design allows the centre stone to be the sole focal point, making it ideal for showcasing a high-quality diamond.
What is the best diamond shape for a solitaire ring?
Round brilliant diamonds are the most popular choice for solitaire rings due to their unmatched sparkle and light performance. However, oval, cushion, and emerald cuts are also stunning in a solitaire setting, each offering a distinct aesthetic. Visit our Melbourne showroom to see different shapes in person and find the one that speaks to you.
What is the difference between a solitaire and a halo engagement ring?
A solitaire features a single stone with no surrounding diamonds, while a halo ring has a ring of smaller diamonds encircling the centre stone. Solitaires offer a clean, minimalist look, whereas halos create more overall sparkle and can make the centre diamond appear larger. Your choice comes down to personal style — both are timeless options.
How do I find the right ring size for a solitaire engagement ring?
The most accurate way to determine ring size is to visit our Melbourne showroom for a professional fitting using calibrated ring sizers. If you're planning a surprise proposal, you can borrow one of your partner's existing rings or use our printable ring size guide available on our website. We also offer complimentary resizing within the first 12 months of purchase.
How should I care for my solitaire engagement ring?
Regular cleaning with warm soapy water and a soft brush will keep your solitaire sparkling brilliantly. We recommend having your ring professionally inspected and cleaned every six to twelve months to ensure the prongs remain secure. Avoid wearing your ring during heavy manual work or when using harsh chemicals to protect both the metal and the diamond.
