Yellow gold engraved engagement rings carry their detail in the metal. Scrollwork, milgrain and filigree are cut along the shoulders and band, and yellow gold gives the pattern the warm, antique glow that engraving was made for. They are the rings to choose when you want an heirloom look from the first day, without the fragility of a hundred-year-old ring.
Five engraved designs in yellow gold
Every design in our engraved collection is made in 14k and 18k yellow gold. The Engraved Cathedral ($2,200) pairs scroll engraving along the shoulders with a raised cathedral head; the Heirloom Cathedral ($2,050) adds a detailed gallery under the stone; the Vintage Inspired band ($2,400) carries our most detailed engraving; the Engraved Tulip ($2,250) lifts the diamond in petal-shaped prongs above an engraved band; and the Engraved Three Stone ($1,850) frames the center stone with two side stones. The cathedral and vintage designs come in round, oval, emerald, cushion, radiant, pear, marquise, moval and Dutch marquise; the tulip is cut for oval, marquise and moval, and the three stone for oval and marquise. Prices are the 14k setting before the diamond; 18k adds $100 to $150.
How engraved yellow gold wears
The engraving is cut on the top three quarters of the band and left plain on the palm side, where wear happens and where a resize is made, so the pattern stays sharp for decades. Yellow gold needs no rhodium plating, so the color you choose is the color you keep. See the same designs in rose gold or two-tone gold, or read our engraved engagement rings guide for how each pattern wears and what can be inscribed inside the band.
Every ring is made to order around a lab-grown diamond you choose, graded by IGI or GIA, and ships free in the US with 30-day returns, one complimentary resize within 100 days and a lifetime manufacturing warranty.
