How to use the Michael Spiers Engagement Ring Curator

Our Engagement Ring Curator has been designed to make finding your perfect ring effortless. Simply choose your preferred ring style, diamond or gemstone cut, stone type, and metal, and our intelligent matching system will present a curated selection of engagement rings tailored to your exact preferences.

With over 65 years of expertise, our master goldsmiths have been handcrafting exceptional engagement rings, creating elegant designs that reflect a wide range of individual styles and tastes. We understand that choosing an engagement ring is one of life's most meaningful decisions, and with so many options available, finding the right one can feel overwhelming.

That is why we have created our Engagement Ring Curator to help you explore and refine your preferences from the comfort of your home, so you can find the right ring when you visit your local jeweller. Within this article, we cover how to use our curator along with our experience on how to select the right engagement ring for you.

Our Engagement Ring Curator is designed to make finding the perfect piece easy with four simple steps.

1. Choose your Ring Style

Start by selecting the engagement ring styles you would like to explore. Our Engagement Ring Curator features a variety of designs, including:

• Classic solitaire rings

• Trilogy rings

• Halo designs

• Traditional cluster rings

If you would like to compare different looks, you can select multiple styles at once.

2. Select your Stone Cut

Next, choose the stone cut that best reflects your personal taste. Our Engagement Ring Curator includes:

Round Brilliant – An ageless classic, ideal for solitaire and halo settings.

Oval – An elegant, elongated cut that works beautifully in cluster designs.

Cushion – A vintage-inspired cut with soft edges, perfect for halo and trilogy rings.

Emerald – A sophisticated step-cut stone that shines on its own or alongside accent gemstones.

Princess – A contemporary square cut with exceptional brilliance.

Marquise – A distinctive, elongated shape originally commissioned by King Louis XV in the 18th century.

4. Select your Metal

Finally, choose your preferred metal. At Michael Spiers, all yellow gold and white gold engagement rings are crafted in luxurious 18ct gold. Many of our designs also incorporate a combination of precious metals for a unique finish.

Begin Exploring

Now that you know how our Engagement Ring Curator works, you can start discovering a wide range of styles, gemstones, and settings.

If you would like to begin again at any point, simply click the "Clear Curator & Start Again" button located at the top right of the curated products.

Choosing the perfect engagement ring is not a decision to be rushed. It is a deeply personal journey, one that reflects your story and the enduring bond you share with your partner. As a lasting symbol of your love, the ring should feel as meaningful and unique as the relationship it represents.

The first step is always understanding what matters most to your partner. An open and thoughtful conversation can offer valuable insight into their personal style, preferred stone, and the details they cherish most in an engagement ring. This could even include the use of a family member's ring.

If you wish to preserve an element of surprise, these discussions can be approached subtly, particularly when it comes to practical considerations such as ring size.

A good tactic may even be to walk past a showroom and look at rings with your partner, just remember to note down any preferences so you do not forget!

Once you have a sense of their preferences, begin your exploration with our Engagement Ring Curator. Designed to inspire and guide, it will help you discover styles, settings, and designs that resonate with your vision as aforementioned. 

Following this, we recommend visiting one of our South West Showrooms or a trusted local jeweller, where you can experience a curated selection of rings in person and receive expert guidance throughout the process.

Above all, take your time. An engagement ring is a once-in-a-lifetime purchase and a piece your partner will treasure every day for years to come. Explore different styles, diamond cuts, gemstones, and settings with care, allowing yourself the space to find a ring that feels truly exceptional. The perfect engagement ring is not simply chosen; it is discovered.

Exceptional Quality

Every gemstone and precious metal we use is chosen for its exceptional quality. Each stone is carefully selected for its beauty, brilliance, and individuality, while every ring is expertly crafted in 18ct gold or recycled platinum. The result is a piece of jewellery designed to be cherished for a lifetime. With Michael Spiers, you can trust that every handcrafted piece is made by master goldsmiths.

Ethical Sourcing

We are committed to responsible sourcing and complete transparency. Every diamond is purchased through legitimate channels in full compliance with United Nations resolutions and the Kimberley Process, ensuring it is conflict-free and ethically sourced. This commitment allows you to choose your ring with complete confidence and peace of mind.
