Celebrity Cushion Cut Diamond Engagement Rings

By Eima Druncbum on October 31, 2017

With a glamour and vintage-inspired sophistication all it’s own, engagement rings featuring cushion cut diamonds are quickly becoming the go-to favorite engagement ring stone for fashionable celebrities, legendary jewelry making designers, and modern brides-to-be all the same. Also sometimes called “pillow-cut” stones, cushion-shaped diamonds are a great way to bring an amazing level of natural diamond fire and shine, while also maintaining a regal sense of vintage-inspired sentimentality and glow.

Seen on the hand of A-List celebs like Kim Kardashian, Chrissy Teigen, and more, the cushion cut craze is nowhere near stopping. So, to help our PJD readers get that A-List look without breaking the bank, here are three of our very favorite celeb rings and their more affordable counterparts. Enjoy!

Looking at Alternative Elegance

By Nora Barnes on October 26, 2017

We’re used to a certain set of materials in the repertoire of the designers’ toolkit of design, such as gold, colourless diamonds, and perfectly round pearls. But while those precious materials rightly deserve to be the standard for jewellery creation, sometimes taking the path less taken is better — and choosing different, alternative materials invites a different kind of beauty.

Life on Mars – The Modern Engagement Rings of Mars

By Eima Druncbum on October 23, 2017

No matter whether discussing Roman god, the little red planet, Michael Jordan’s shoe-shilling partner, or whatever else, Mars has been captivating people’s imaginations for centuries. More recently, since 1987 to be exact, the fine jewelry artisans at Mars Fine Jewelry have made it their mission to create exquisite bridal jewelry pieces that are every bit out-of-this-world as the brand’s namesake would suggest.

Known for creating pieces that are deceptively simple, intricately designed, as well as covered with exquisite embellishments, engravings, and brilliant diamonds, the engagement rings of Mars quickly became highly in-demand by fashion-forward brides-to-be. Originally only available through custom orders, Mars was able to expand and grow, and are now available in many leading fine jewelry retailers, including our pals over at Medawar Jewelers.

And because there’s nothing we at Premiere Jewelry Designs love more than introducing our readers to new designers, here is a quick introduction to the wonderful engagement ring collections of Mars available today at an authorized retailer near you.

An Engaging Engagement

Oh no! You want to propose to your favorite lady in the world — you’ve got the venue ready, you’ve got the ideal place to pop the question, and heck, you’ve even got a camera person ready! But you don’t have the ring yet! You might think you can push that to the last minute, but you’re sadly mistaken if you think a lady won’t notice that her ring, her one-and-only engagement ring, was picked without enough care and attention.
