We also have a promise ring service. These are beautiful rings priced from €80 to €250. You can give it as an engagement ring or as a promise ring, depending on your partner's preference. If you do decide to come back and purchase an engagement ring the cost of the promise ring is taken off the final purchase so that is 2 rings for the price of 1.

1. Focus on What You Want:

When it comes to choosing the best stone for an engagement ring, diamonds remain the classic choice. They're durable, timeless, and generally well-received. Here at Inne, we have a large number of alternative options. Consider sapphires or moissanite. They offer durability and a touch of uniqueness without breaking the bank.

2. Keep the Setting Simple:

The setting is where the stone sits, and simplicity often triumphs. Opt for a classic prong setting if you want to highlight the stone without distraction. If durability is a concern, a bezel setting provides added security. Remember, less can be more when it comes to settings.

3. Choose the Right Metal:

We are all about yellow gold. If you prefer a warmer tone, yellow gold or rose gold are timeless alternatives. White gold and platinum are also popular choices for engagement rings. They offer a clean, contemporary look that complements any stone. Consider your partner's style and everyday wear when selecting the metal. If it’s a surprise, take a sneaky snap of her other jewelry, including earrings and necklaces. That can help us find something within your partner's style.

4. Set a Budget:

It's crucial to set a realistic budget before diving into the engagement ring market. Determine what you're comfortable spending and stick to it. Keep in mind that there are beautiful rings available at various price points, and the perfect ring doesn't have to break the bank.

5. Consider Lifestyle:

Think about your partner's lifestyle when choosing an engagement ring. If they have an active lifestyle or work with their hands frequently, a lower-profile setting may be more practical. If they appreciate elegance and don't mind a bit of maintenance, a higher-set stone could be the way to go.

6. Keep Size in Perspective:

Size isn't everything. While a larger stone may seem appealing, focusing on quality is key. For some, the brilliance and clarity of the stone matter more than sheer size. For others, a more inclusive organic stone might be the right choice.

7. Research the 4 Cs:

If you're going with a diamond, familiarise yourself with the 4 Cs – cut, colour, clarity, and carat weight. If you want to prioritise size over colour or vice verse that will impact price and understanding that will allow you to make an informed decision.


In the end, buying an engagement ring doesn't have to be complicated. Consider your partner's taste, your budget, and the practical aspects of daily wear. Stick to the basics, and you'll find the perfect ring that symbolises your commitment without unnecessary fuss.
