Engagement Rings

 

In 1947 De Beers advertised with their “diamonds are forever” slogan and sales of diamonds and diamond engagement rings took off, they advertised at the time that an engagement ring should cost the equivalent of a month’s salary, but by the 1980s that figure had risen to two months’ salary.

Why not make that two months’ salary go further and buy your engagement ring at auction? We have a highly trained jewellery team who can advise you on your choice, be it a period or antique ring, a one-off designer ring, or the classic solitaire that you can have remounted to your own design. 

The single-stone diamond or solitaire diamond engagement ring has always been the most popular choice with examples below of rings sold here at Sworders.
