Unique yellow gold engagement rings set a lab-grown diamond in the warmest of the classic metals, a look that has returned for vintage and modern designs alike, and this collection gives it settings beyond the plain solitaire. All 13 non-traditional designs are made in 14k and 18k yellow gold: engraved cathedral, tulip and vintage bands, channel-set Art Deco baguettes, a faux bezel, star-set celestial and wide rounded bands, split double bands, floral pavé accents and three-stone designs, across nine diamond shapes, with settings from $1,350.
Unique Gold Engagement Ring Styles
Yellow gold makes the engraved designs look like heirlooms: Vintage Inspired, Engraved Cathedral, Heirloom Cathedral and Engraved Tulip all carry their engraving well in a warm metal. The Rounded Tapered Band and Double Gold Band Tulip turn the band itself into the feature, and the Art Deco and Celestial settings give yellow gold a sharper, more graphic edge with white lab-grown diamonds against the warm metal. For a yellow band with a white gold head, the same designs are made as unique two-tone engagement rings.
14k or 18k Yellow Gold?
14k yellow gold is harder and a touch paler, the practical choice for daily wear, with settings from $1,350. 18k has a deeper color and a softer feel, from $1,550. Both hold their color for life with no replating. See all yellow gold engagement rings for classic settings.

Settings run from $1,350 in 14k to $2,650 in 18k yellow gold before the diamond. Rings are made to order in about three weeks, ship free in the US and can be returned within 30 days.
