3 East-West Engagement Rings for the Non-Traditional Bride
Keep scrolling to see three of our favorite east-west engagement ring designs.
1. Sideways oval engagement ring
Oval engagement rings boast a beautiful spread which looks just as stunning when positioned in an east-west setting. A horizontally placed oval offers tremendous wow factor—a modern, fashion-forward take on the classic solitaire.
2. Sideways cushion engagement ring
Depending on the cushion-cut diamond's ratio, a sideways cushion engagement ring can be a subtler take on the east-west design. The coveted chunky facets of a cushion look just as spectacular when set horizontally.
3. Sideways marquise engagement ring
The shape of a marquise diamond lends itself perfectly to an east-west engagement ring setting. The marquise's two points beautifully narrow toward the ring's band, making it balanced to the eye. This delicate design dials up the romance.
