stumbleupon 2011 was marked with an increase in shoppers’ demand for stylish, chic and unique wedding rings. Consequently, this year’s jewellery market is flooded with wedding rings in an abundance of styles and designs, from the ever-popular, classic solitaire diamond wedding band to more contemporary, precious gemstone encrusted cluster set wedding rings. Here are the top 3 most popular wedding band styles for 2011:
Simple, unadorned wedding rings are an all time favorite. Adored for their simple aesthetics, their clean lines, their graceful contours, plain banded wedding rings are perfect for couples who want understated, elegant looking wedding rings. Not to mention that this style of wedding band is usually the most affordable when it comes to various wedding ring styles due to the simplicity of its design and the lack of diamond or precious gemstone embellishments.
The tension setting is a relatively new setting style, favored for its tasteful, yet unique appearance. A tension setting will commonly feature a solitaire diamond, set flush to the band’s surface, held securely in place by two tiny metal prongs attached to the band’s metal edges. Tension set wedding rings are perfect for couples who are looking for a truly one of a kind, sophisticated wedding band.
Eternity wedding rings are just about the same as eternity engagement rings. Pave set diamonds encircle the entire spans of the ring’s band, creating a glitzy effect. The eternity wedding band was made popular by its eye-catching, glittery allure and is in high demand with those couples who are interested in a wedding band that is sure to awe and astound. Eternity wedding rings can at times be more costly than the plain banded wedding ring and the tension set wedding band mentioned above due to the amount of diamonds incorporated in this particular wedding ring style, however, the eternity wedding bandmakes up for its costliness with its glamorous appearance.
