Just stunning.

Although the sideways oval trend is predicted to be a major engagement ring trend next year, there’s another style you might be seeing a lot of in 2018.

As we know Kate Middleton’s engagement ring is a stunning blue sapphire and rumours suggest that Prince Harry will choose a coloured stone to propose to his partner, Meghan Markle.

There have been reports that Harry may pick an emerald and although this is all conjecture for now, it wouldn’t surprise us if we were to see a lot more of this type of gem next year.

Aside from sapphires which are currently the most popular choice for this type of ring and emeralds, pink sapphire stones are having a moment.

Morganite is also becoming bigger and bigger and if diamonds aren’t for you, the pretty peach-colour might grab your attention with Irish designer Chupi a massive fan of this particular stone.

Jewellers say that this type of ring is ideal for the bride who wants something a little unconventional that stands out from the crowd and there’s a rise in rings that include two types of coloured stone if you want a completely unique design.

Whether an engagement is on the cards or you’re just a total magpie, there are some stunning looks here.
