According to the Office for National Statistics, 42% of marriages end in divorce. So why bother? For the jewellery, obviously. Whether you hope to receive an engagement ring by strategically planting hard copies of your browser history around your home or plan on purchasing one to represent the commitment you have to yourself, these are our absolute favourites.

FERIAN

FERIAN WEDGWOOD BLUE CUPID RING

An engagement ring set with a vintage Wedgwood cameo of Cupid makes perfect sense, doesn’t it?

VAN CLEEF & ARPELS

VAN CLEEF & ARPELS FRIVOLE RING

Flowers are a nice demonstration of affection, but they tend to die. Avoid the realities of this metaphor with a ring from the Van Cleef & Arpels Frivole collection.

FIE ISOLDE

FIE ISOLDE ODETTE SIGNET RING

You’re probably aware of the idea that wedding bands represent the supposedly eternal love of spouses. What better predecessor to this than an engagement ring that’s not quite a full circle?

THEODORA WARRE

THEODORA WARRE MOTHER OF PEARL & RUBY HEART RING

Why declare your love for someone with a heart-shaped ring when you could declare your love for someone with a heart-shaped ring that looks like it shoots laser beams of love from its ruby centre?

GEORGIA KEMBALL

GEORGIA KEMBALL ORGY RING IN STERLING SILVER

We did say ‘alternative’ engagement rings.

JIWINAIA

JIWINAIA FLOWER SMILE RING, FROM A SELECTION

In case there was any doubt that you’re supposed to marry the person who makes you the happiest.

SEB BROWN

SEB BROWN PINK RING, FROM A SELECTION

Feelings may fade, but precious stones and metals are forever – never forget it!
