Collection: Side Stone Engagement Rings

Side stone settings flank the center diamond with smaller accent stones along the band, adding extra brilliance and a fuller look to the hand without overwhelming the main stone. Every side stone ring is custom built around a certified lab grown center diamond.

Got Questions? We Got Answers

What is a side stone engagement ring?

A side stone ring features smaller accent diamonds set along the band on either side of the center stone, adding extra sparkle and a more elevated look.

Do side stones make the center diamond look bigger?

Yes — the added brilliance along the band draws the eye outward, making the overall ring appear larger and more substantial.

Are side stone rings more expensive than solitaires?

They typically cost a little more than a solitaire due to the extra diamonds, but far less than upgrading to a larger center stone — making them a popular way to add impact within budget.

Can side stones be different shapes than the center diamond?

Yes — baguettes, rounds, and tapered stones are all popular pairings that add contrast and dimension to the design.

Can I customize a side stone engagement ring?

Yes — you can choose your center stone's shape and carat weight, the side stone style, and your metal to design the ring exactly as you envision it.

Sparkle along the band

Side stone rings add diamonds down the shoulders of the band, from delicate pavé to bold baguettes. They frame the center stone, make the ring feel more luxurious and catch light from every angle.

Choosing a side stone style

Pavé and micro-pavé look fine and glittering; channel-set stones feel smoother and more protective; baguettes give a clean, Art Deco line. If you want to wear a wedding band alongside, consider a matching pavé band so the two rings sit together as a set.

About side stone engagement rings

Side stone rings pair the center diamond with smaller diamonds set along the band, adding sparkle and width to the design.

Are lab grown diamonds real?

Yes. Lab grown diamonds are made of pure carbon with the same crystal structure, hardness and sparkle as mined diamonds, and they are graded on the same color, clarity and carat scales. They typically cost 70 to 90 percent less and have a traceable, conflict-free origin.
