Here are the diamond engagement ring and jewelry trends in 2024 that will serve as a guide for the upcoming year, regardless of whether you are shopping for yourself or a loved one.
1. Lab Grown Diamonds
1.01ct D VS1 Round Precision Lab Created Diamond
The demand continues to grow for lab grown diamond engagement rings in 2024 - a more cost-effective option that offers the same sparkle and durability as natural diamonds.
A growing number of consumers are embracing the beauty of a diamond through
lab-created diamonds as a way to make budgets stretch further.
The affordability of lab-grown diamonds is one of the major reasons for their emerging popularity.
Lab-created diamonds are manufactured worldwide in dozens of factories with continually improving technology, whereas natural diamonds are rare and found in only a few places on Earth.
In comparison with diamond-like simulants like
cubic zirconia, which are widely used in costume jewelry, this is a significant improvement. Going forward, lab-grown diamonds will continue to play a key role in the jewelry industry.
Whiteflash has always been known for providing
natural diamonds of the highest quality. It is equally important to us to provide our customers with affordable diamonds for their dream engagement rings.
Our Precision Lab category offers the finest lab-created diamonds to customers looking for lab-grown diamonds. As a result of our expertise in diamond cut quality and diamond light performance, we provide the best lab diamonds on the market. It doesn't matter what your style or budget is, Whiteflash has the perfect diamond to match the engagement ring and jewelry trends of 2024.
2. Mixed Metal Diamond Jewelry
This ring celebrates twenty years of marriage
In spite of jewelry fads evolving and changing, diamonds and the sparkle they create will always be a constant. Enter stackable diamond jewelry, a versatile trend that allows you to curate a unique and personalized look by mixing and matching different designs. Perfect for everyday wear, these pieces can seamlessly transition from casual outings to formal affairs, adapting to the essence of any occasion.
Traditionally, choosing the metal for your engagement ring has been a pivotal decision. However, in 2024, we encourage you to break free from the confines of a singular metal. The era of having to decide between
white gold, yellow gold, or platinum is fading, making way for a more eclectic and individualized approach.
Picture this: an 18k white gold engagement ring adorned with a stack of delicately crafted yellow gold bands. The combination not only adds warmth to your hand but also creates a stunning contrast that catches the eye. Similarly, a thick white gold band paired with a blushing pink, rose gold engagement ring introduces a contemporary twist, elevating the overall aesthetic.
Stacking rings, bangles or chains is an easy way to rotate your collection or mix up your everyday favorites with new, exciting pieces inspired by upcoming diamond jewelry trends. Don’t be afraid to mix it up!
The pieces can even be stacked over the years to
mark milestones such as anniversaries, birthdays and special occasions. So, don't be afraid to embrace the brilliance of mixed metals – stack, layer, and celebrate the enduring allure of diamonds in 2024 and beyond.
3. Warm Yellow Gold Settings
Valoria Flora Twist Diamond Engagement Ring
Platinum and gold ring settings have both endured through the ages. It is not surprising that yellow gold will remain a popular jewelry trend in 2024.
There has been a
resurgence of yellow gold in engagement rings and jewelry alike, from vintage-inspired designs to contemporary ones; this classic precious metal has a robust and rich aesthetic. Yellow gold settings will increasingly be used for engagement rings in 2024, bringing a striking contrast between the buttery metal's warmth and the icy sparkle added by the diamonds.
Choosing yellow gold can allow you to lower the diamond color by one or two grades and focus on the cut and setting instead. It is not necessary for diamonds to be colorless in order for them to appear white in contrast to the darker yellow metal. Enjoy the golden glow that illuminates your path as you embark on your forever adventure.
4. Asymmetrical Elegance

In a trend that veers away from tradition, more people are proposing with asymmetrical rings. In place of the traditional solitaire diamond engagement ring, customers now seek rings that reflect their personalities.
These striking rings catch the eye with their statement shapes. Asymmetry can work fantastically, if you choose a carefully balanced and executed design, such as the
Simon G Fabled Bezel Solitaire Engagement Ring. The result is contemporary yet fluid.
Asymmetric rings are a great way for people to express themselves in a playful, less conventional way. There's nothing like a fresh take on a classic to capture consumers' attention.
5. Toi-et-Moi Engagement Ring Design
Valoria Oval Two Stone Right Hand Ring
As we navigate the ever-evolving landscape of engagement ring trends, it's clear that some styles stand the test of time, and one such enduring favorite is the toi-et-moi design.
Remarkably,
our predictions from 2022 and
2023 are not just holding steady but are, in fact, flourishing for the third consecutive year. In 2024, the toi-et-moi engagement ring design remains firmly in the spotlight, captivating the hearts of couples seeking a symbol as unique as their love story.
The 'you and me' concept as well as the endless possibilities for customization, including mixing stones, colors, cuts, and carats, are incredibly popular with shoppers. As a result, they are able to create one-of-a-kind combinations.
