Question 1

How do I choose an engagement ring that feels meaningful, not trendy?

Accepted Answer

A meaningful engagement ring reflects the relationship rather than current trends. Historically, rings were chosen through intention, conversation, and personal values. At Sol et Terre, we guide couples to choose designs rooted in proportion, craftsmanship, and emotional resonance—so the ring remains relevant long after trends fade.

Question 2

Is there a right diamond shape for an engagement ring?

Accepted Answer

There is no universally right diamond shape—only the one that resonates most with the wearer. Each shape carries its own character, from the classic romance of round cuts to the quiet strength of emerald cuts. The best choice is guided by personal style, lifestyle, and emotional connection.

Question 3

What if I want to propose but I am unsure about her ring preference?

Accepted Answer

Many proposers share this concern. Sol et Terre offers a Perfect Ring Guarantee, allowing you to propose with confidence and refine or redesign the ring together afterward. This approach honors both the moment of surprise and the importance of shared decision-making.

Question 4

What is Sol et Terre’s Perfect Ring Guarantee?

Accepted Answer

The Perfect Ring Guarantee is Sol et Terre’s commitment to flexibility and trust. It allows couples to adjust, redesign, or finalize the engagement ring after the proposal, ensuring the final piece truly reflects both partners’ values and preferences.

Question 5

Can we redesign or upgrade the ring after the proposal?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Sol et Terre encourages rings to evolve alongside life stages. Couples may redesign or upgrade their ring as their story grows, ensuring the jewellery continues to feel relevant, personal, and meaningful over time.

Question 6

Are lab-grown diamonds suitable for engagement and wedding rings?

Accepted Answer

Lab-grown diamonds are fully suitable for engagement and wedding rings. From a gemological perspective, they are as durable, brilliant, and long-lasting as natural diamonds. Their suitability lies not only in physical strength but also in their alignment with modern values.

Question 7

What makes an engagement ring timeless rather than trend-driven?

Accepted Answer

Timeless engagement rings are defined by balance, craftsmanship, and restraint rather than seasonal trends. Designs that emphasize proportion and quality age gracefully, allowing them to remain elegant and relevant across decades.

Question 8

How did women historically choose engagement rings before trends and algorithms?

Accepted Answer

Historically, engagement rings were chosen through personal dialogue, observation, and family values rather than public trends. Rings were selected for longevity and meaning, intended to accompany a woman through life rather than serve as a momentary statement.

Question 9

Is it better to prioritize diamond quality or ring design?

Accepted Answer

Diamond quality and ring design are inseparable. A well-cut, certified diamond deserves thoughtful design, while refined design requires a diamond of integrity. Sol et Terre approaches both as equal partners in creating lasting beauty.

Question 10

How do modern couples redefine the meaning of engagement rings?

Accepted Answer

Modern couples view engagement rings as symbols of partnership, equality, and shared values. Rather than status or trends, today’s rings represent intentional commitment and a conscious vision of life built together.
