The Taurus Engagement Ring
Engagement rings hold a special significance for Taurus individuals. As lovers of beauty and luxury, a diamond engagement ring is the perfect embodiment of their distinctive personality.
Nature-Inspired
Taurus individuals are deeply connected to nature, thanks to their earth sign influence, which governs their appreciation for the natural world and its beauty. This connection often translates into a preference for nature-inspired elements in engagement ring designs. A great option for Taurus is the Lilac ring from Sylvie’s Tulira Collection. This ring features a floral diamond band design made up of round and marquise diamonds, totaling 0.8 carats.
Modern Vintage
Taurus appreciates intricate craftsmanship and often favors rings with elegant details like milgrain edges or delicate engravings because these elements align perfectly with their innate love for quality, beauty, and enduring value. Choosing a ring from Sylvie’s Modern Vintage collection, would be a great option. For example, the Roial ring features an intricate band of milgrain curls and leaf shapes that surround shimmering diamonds that total 0.12 carats.
Luxurious Elements
Ruled by Venus, the planet of love, beauty, and luxury, Taurus individuals naturally gravitate towards items that reflect these attributes. Luxurious elements in engagement rings, such as high-quality diamonds, exquisite craftsmanship, and premium metals, align with their inherent desire for beauty and opulence. A perfect choice that resonates with these attributes is the Brenley ring. This multi-stone setting features a 1 carat of graduated emerald cut diamonds that flank either side of the center stone. This ring is an opulent choice for your Taurus.
Practicality
Taurus values items that are built to last. When selecting an engagement ring, they prefer designs that are not only beautiful but also durable and suitable for everyday wear. Practicality for a Taurus means choosing a ring that will withstand the test of time without losing its radiance. A split shank setting such as the Whitney ring is perfect for Taurus. This ring features our Shell Taper band with accent diamonds alongside a hidden halo, totaling 0.47 carats.
Simple Setting
Taurus individuals appreciate fine craftsmanship and value quality over quantity. A solitaire diamond ring will appeal to their sophisticated taste, offering a stunning yet understated look. The Dominique ring is a great choice for a solitaire setting. This ring features a sleek high polish band alongside trios of peek-a-boo diamonds that are placed between the prongs on either side of the center stone, totaling 0.05 carats.
Platinum
Taurus individuals are known for their preference for quality, durability, and timeless elegance, which often leads them to choose platinum for their engagement rings. A classic setting like the Marlise ring looks beautiful in platinum. This classic wide band engagement ring features 1 carat of diamonds that flow three-quarterways down the band.
The Perfect Taurus Diamond
A Taurus, ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty and luxury, often has refined tastes and a preference for high-quality, elegant items. When it comes to selecting a diamond for a Taurus, consider the following preferences:
Diamond Shape
Round Brilliant: The classic round brilliant cut is ideal for a Taurus due to its timeless elegance and superior sparkle. It appeals to their love for beauty and luxury.
Emerald Cut: The emerald cut’s sophisticated and understated elegance suits Taurus’ appreciation for classic and refined designs.
Diamond Cut, Clarity, Color and Carat
Excellent or Very Good Cut: Taurus individuals will appreciate a diamond with an excellent or very good cut, as it maximizes the stone’s brilliance and fire, enhancing its overall beauty.
VVS2 or VVS1 Clarity: Taurus values quality and will prefer diamonds with very little inclusions. A clarity grade of VVS2 or VVS1 ensures the diamond looks flawless to the naked eye while offering good value.
D or E Color: Taurus individuals appreciate diamonds that appear near-colorless but offer good value. Diamonds in the D (colorless) or E (near-colorless) range are virtually indistinguishable to the naked eye and provide a beautiful, classic appearance.
Carat: Since Taurus appreciates luxury and the finer things in life, they will be drawn to bigger carat sizes. A 3 or 4 carat natural diamond would be perfect for a Taurus.
