If you’re thinking about proposing and want something that feels modern, personal, and a little unexpected — this might be the ring. The Elena Emerald Cut Solitaire Ring by Sarah O. is such a beautiful balance of clean, minimalist design and timeless elegance. It features a bezel-set emerald-cut diamond (you can go lab-grown too, which is super cool and ethical!) set on a sleek, flat gold band.
What I love about it is how low-profile and wearable it is — no prongs, nothing fussy — just this smooth, sculptural setting that lets the diamond shine in the most effortless way. It’s the kind of ring that feels thoughtful, like you picked it because you know them, not just because it sparkles (though… it definitely does sparkle).
Also, it’s named after Elena Ferrante — yes, that Ferrante — which is such a sweet, literary little touch. If you’re looking for something meaningful, modern, and low-key luxurious, this is a gorgeous way to pop the question.
