Baguettes:
A popular cut during the Art Deco period; the baguette has a vintage flair and is poised for a huge comeback this season. Baguettes make a natural accent to nearly every other cut of center stone. Set horizontally, the bands offer a fresh yet romantic new style of eternity band.

Because, fancy cut diamonds are cut in unique ways like, emerald, princess and radiant, they tend to be very eye catching and appeal to many.

Cigar Bands:
While many brides may reach for a delicate, dainty band, wider bands are becoming a popular choice for men and women. The wide bands can have diamond details, a rounded middle or be the same dimension the whole way around. Trendvision, an international jewelry trend forecaster, selected wide, cigar-style bands as part of its Bespoke Bridal trend.

Stacking Sets:
Stacking sets are a fun way to personalize a wedding ring. Stacking and nesting rings allow you to add to your engagement ring, presenting the perfect opportunity for a unique anniversary present! The rings dont have to perfectly match either, you can play around by adding a different colored gemstone, or mixing metals with different types of bands.
