Types of Statement Rings
These rings come in all different styles; and of course, the common theme is that they’re eye-catching. Here are some popular options:
Chunky Gemstone Rings:
These rings feature large, vibrant gemstones that capture both light and attention. For example:

- The Iris Heirloom Ring features an emerald-cut white topaz center flanked by two side stones. It is made of 14k yellow gold and is available in emerald, pink sapphire, sapphire, and ruby. You can even create your own heirloom ring with custom semi-precious stones of your choice.
Statement Cocktail Rings:
Often associated with glamour and luxury, cocktail rings are typically adorned with beautiful designs. They’re ideal for special occasions or whenever you want to feel a little more glamorous. For example:
- The Malachite Evil Eye Ring. Malachite is often associated with protection, as is the evil eye. Each stone is unique, therefore each ring is truly one of a kind. 14k yellow gold.
- The East West Pave Diamond Ring. A statement-making pave diamond ring. The beauty shines bright with over half a carat of diamonds. White diamonds are a symbol for purity, love, loyalty & abundance. 14k yellow gold.
14k Gold Statement Rings:
Combining the classic beauty of gold with bold designs, these rings offer a timeless elegance. The warm tones of 14k gold add a touch of sophistication, so they work for both formal and casual settings. For example:
- The Eliana Fluted Heart Ring. A beautiful heart-shaped ring with fluted details. Crafted in 14K yellow gold and featuring a sparkling diamond in the center.
- Riley Sapphire Dome Ring. Features a beautifully cut teardrop sapphire encased in a 14k yellow gold dome-style band. Blue sapphires symbolize truth, sincerity, and loyalty.
How to Style Statement Rings
Styling statement rings is such a fun and creative process! Here are some tips:
- Keep It Simple: One option is to let your statement ring be the star of the show. You can wear that as your only jewelry piece, or pair it with delicate rings and bracelets.
- Go All In: Another option is to pair bold with bold. In this case, choose different styles of bold rings. For example, one ring could be a large gemstone, another ring could be a 14k gold design that spirals up your finger, and a third ring could be a design with a unique cut-out pattern.
- Consider Your Outfit: Statement rings can enhance both casual and formal outfits. For a casual look, pair a statement chunky gemstone ring with a chic blouse and jeans. For a more formal setting, a statement cocktail ring can add elegance to your evening dress.
- Play with Colors: Don’t be afraid to experiment with colors. A vibrant gemstone can complement or even contrast with your outfit. It’s a striking visual effect. For example, a turquoise ring can add a pop of color to a neutral outfit, while a deep red garnet can enhance a classic black dress.
Selecting the Perfect Statement Ring
To choose the right statement ring, consider both your personal style and the specific occasion. Here are some tips:
- Know Your Style: Think about the colors, materials, and designs that you typically gravitate towards. If you love vintage styles, look for rings with intricate patterns and antique finishes. If you prefer modern designs, go for sleek, minimalist rings with clean lines.
- Consider the Occasion: If you’re looking for a ring to wear to a formal event, you’ll probably want a statement cocktail ring with intricate detailing. For everyday wear, a chunky gemstone can add exciting interest to your look.
- Quality Matters: When it comes to statement rings, quality is key. Look for rings made from durable materials like 14k gold, which not only look stunning but also stand the test of time.
