Unusual engagement ring designers: Timeless Anna Sheffield

Anna Sheffield is one of the most timeless and unusual engagement ring designers. Her jewellery is an alternative to traditional jewellery. It is made with conflict-free diamonds and precious, rare, and antique gemstones. This makes her rings truly bespoke. Anna Sheffield is a New York designer with a fine art background. Let’s take a look at four of her unique and elegant ring designs.

Moonstone Bea

The Moonstone Bea ring is a clear example of why Anna Sheffield is considered to be one of the most timeless and unusual engagement ring designers. It features an emerald cut moonstone set in a ceremonial signature basket on a 14 karat yellow gold band. On each side of the gemstone, there is an inverted set white trillion diamond of 0.14 carats which gives the ring a real sense of grandeur.

The moonstone is an ancient gemstone and was renowned in the art nouveau movement. The Moonstone Bea is an artistic and creative, yet classic, ring. It is the cheapest of these four rings and costs $2,500.

Labradorite Bea

Anna Sheffield’s Labradorite Bea is similar to her Moonstone Bea but contains a centre labradorite gemstone instead of moonstone. It is set on a 14 karat yellow gold band, and on either side of the labradorite, there is an inverted set white trillion diamond of 0.14 carats. Labradorite is an igneous rock and commonly has a dark blue sheen. Being one of the most unusual engagement ring designers, Anna Sheffield has used a lighter greener and greyer version of labradorite to create an entirely individual ring. The Labradorite Bea engagement ring costs $3,500.

Oval Bea

Anna Sheffield describes the Oval Bea engagement ring as ‘joyful’. It is a stunning ring with an almost royal appearance. It is one of her more expensive engagement rings at a cost of $5,000.00. The Oval Bea three stone ring features an inverted oval rose cut white diamond centre with trillion shaped white diamonds on each side on a 14 karat rose gold band.

Hazeline

Further evidence of the reasons why Anna Sheffield is one of the most timeless and unusual engagement ring designers is the Hazeline ring. It is a beautifully bespoke cornerstone of Anna Sheffield’s solitaire collection. The ring is based on one of her grandmother’s rings and therefore appears classic and timeless. It is often described as classic in style with a delicate silhouette. It is shown on the Anna Sheffield website with a 10 carat brilliant champagne coloured diamond centre with small white diamond accents in a 14 karat slender yellow gold shank. The Hazeline ring is the most expensive of these four rings and costs $9,500.

It is because her collections are crafted from the most exquisite materials and with the utmost attention to detail that Anna Sheffield has become one of the most timeless and unusual engagement ring designers.
