The Best Engagement Ring Add-Ons to Make Your Ring Uniquely Yours
Choosing the setting and the diamond is only the beginning. What truly sets your engagement ring apart are the thoughtful details: the finishing touches that turn something beautiful into something unforgettable.
Engagement ring add-ons are custom design elements that add personality, elegance, and sparkle in all the right places. Whether your taste leans timeless or trend-forward, these features help create a piece that feels unmistakably yours. In this guide, we’ll highlight Keyzar’s engagement ring add-ons and how each one can make your ring even more special.
What Are Engagement Ring Add-Ons?
At Keyzar, we call them extras: elevated, optional features that customize the look, feel, and sparkle of your ring. Think of them as meaningful enhancements that take your design to the next level. From delicate pavé accents to dramatic metal contrasts, these extras influence everything from brilliance to silhouette to structure. They also give you the freedom to create a ring that’s not just gorgeous—it’s completely you.
Engagement Ring Add-Ons to Elevate Your Design
Engagement ring extras at Keyzar can transform everything from the band shape and width to the stone orientation and prong style. These are just a few of the customization options we offer: our team can bring even more personal touches to life, creating a ring that’s truly your own. Here’s a glimpse at some of the add-ons that enhance style and sparkle.
1. Design the Perfect Band
At Keyzar, we believe the band is the foundation of your forever. Whether you’re drawn to something delicate and graceful or bold and captivating, every curve and contour can be personalized to reflect your love and your style. Your dream ring starts here.
2.5mm or 2mm Band
The width of the band plays a subtle but powerful role in the overall appearance of your engagement ring. A 2.5mm band feels classic and grounded, while a 2mm version brings more delicacy and grace.
The Ashley engagement ring has a slender 1.5mm band that gives it a delicate beauty, but with a 2.5mm upgrade, it gains a stronger yet graceful presence. The Pave Kamellie also evolves with a wider pavé band, wrapping the finger in a soft, shimmering glow that feels both refined and endlessly romantic.
Euro Shank
The Euro shank, which is a squared-off base of the band, adds comfort and stability by preventing the ring from spinning. While it looks great on any engagement ring, it’s a modern solution for larger center stones or top-heavy designs.
The Khloe, a show-stopping engagement ring with rows of round-cut diamonds and a radiant hidden halo, benefits beautifully from a Euro shank. The squared-off bottom balances the visual weight of the setting, ensuring the center stone stays perfectly centered and the sparkle remains uninterrupted.
Tapered
A tapered setting on an engagement ring refers to a ring where the band gradually narrows towards the central gemstone or head of the ring. This design feature creates a more classical and delicate look that draws attention to the main stone. On the flip side, a reverse tapered setting widens near the center stone, putting the spotlight on the diamond in a way that’s edgy, architectural, and full of character.
The Sarah’s high-profile silhouette and hidden halo are beautifully accentuated by a tapered band. The gentle narrowing pulls attention toward the center, subtly enhancing its size and brilliance while maintaining the ring’s refined, polished finish. On The Pave Sarah, a reverse tapered band adds bold contrast to the high-profile setting, drawing even more attention to its brilliant center stone.
Diamonds Around the Band
Opting for diamonds around the band is a stunning way to maximize sparkle and create a look that feels endlessly luxurious. This add-on, which is available with 75% or 100% coverage, wraps your finger in a continuous shimmer, making it a meaningful and eye-catching upgrade.
The Lucia is a breathtaking engagement ring featuring six marquise diamonds that dance along the half-band. Opting for 75% diamond coverage enhances the ring’s brilliance while maintaining balance and wearability. With The Pave Ashley, extending the pave diamonds all the way around the band adds nonstop sparkle that complements the floating center stone and enhances its light-catching effect.
2. Prongs That Perfect Your Ring
At Keyzar, even the smallest details are crafted with care, and prongs are no exception. The right prong style not only secures your center stone but also shapes the entire look of your ring. From delicate and subtle to bold and sculptural, our prong add-ons let you personalize every angle of your sparkle.
Double Prongs
Double prongs bring both strength and style to your engagement ring. This classic-meets-contemporary detail is especially suited for larger stones or intricate designs, offering extra security with a distinctive touch.
The Twig, Keyzar’s nature-inspired flagship design, comes to life with double prongs. Its dainty, organic band and soft diamond accents mimic branches wrapping around the finger. The added double prongs not only reinforce the setting but also amplify the ring’s symbolism of strength, growth, and elegance, making the center stone feel even more rooted in meaning.
Compass
Compass prongs orient the claws in a North-South-East-West direction rather than a traditional square layout. The effect is subtle but still adds a greater level of symmetry and visual interest, especially for streamlined ring designs.
The Alison engagement ring, a minimalist solitaire with petal-like prongs and a sleek band, looks especially elegant with compass prongs. This orientation draws the eye toward the center stone in a graceful, intentional way, adding just the right amount of uniqueness to its timeless shape.
Six Prongs
Six prongs are a timeless choice for round diamonds because they provide both structure and a symmetrical, traditional look. They also offer slightly more security for the stone than four-prong styles while enhancing the overall elegance of the setting.
The Nelly engagement ring, with its hidden halo and high-set center stone, pairs beautifully with a six prong add-on. This addition elevates the clean, minimal silhouette by adding graceful balance around the diamond, keeping the design classic while offering practical strength and refined structure.
Pave Prongs
Adding pave diamonds to the prongs infuses subtle sparkle right at the center, enhancing the brilliance without distracting from the main stone. It’s a romantic detail that makes a striking impact.
The Lindsey engagement ring, with its hidden halo and dazzling array of marquise and round-cut diamonds, already makes a bold statement. Pavé prongs take it one step further, adding intricate light-play around the center stone and giving the entire ring an added dimension of brilliance and detail.
3. Personalized Basket Add-Ons
At Keyzar, beauty isn’t just what you see from the top: it’s woven into every detail, even beneath the stone. Basket add-ons offer a stunning way to personalize your ring’s foundation, adding extra charm, strength, and artistry.
Two-Tone Metal
Blending two metal colors, like white and yellow gold, creates a striking contrast that enhances the diamond’s brightness and can even give the illusion of a larger stone. This elevated touch adds a subtle yet modern statement to a classic setting.
The Natalie is a stunning cathedral solitaire that’s even more glamorous with a two-tone add-on. Choosing a white gold basket with a yellow gold band highlights its fine details beautifully, making the diamond appear even more radiant and the ring’s silhouette more dynamic.
East-West Setting
In an east-west setting, the center stone is turned horizontally, creating a sleek, fashion-forward design that feels refreshingly modern. It’s intended for elongated shapes like ovals, emeralds, and marquise cuts.
The Lexie, a timeless solitaire with a smooth cathedral band, becomes uniquely sophisticated when the center stone is set east-west. The fluid lines of the setting support the horizontal orientation, creating a graceful, contemporary silhouette.
Bezel Setting
A bezel setting features a smooth metal rim that surrounds the center stone. This extra offers a clean, contemporary look that’s also incredibly secure, making it ideal for active lifestyles or minimalist tastes.
The Liv, a Deco-inspired three-stone ring with tapered baguettes, becomes even more striking with a bezel-set center. The bezel enhances its geometric elegance, brings out the architectural lines, and adds modern flair while keeping the stone snugly protected.
Hidden Halo
A hidden halo adds a circle of diamonds just beneath the center stone. It’s discreet from the top but dazzling from the sides. Many Keyzar rings already include one, but it’s available as an add-on for others.
The Melissa engagement ring, with its whimsical blend of round and marquise diamonds along the shoulders, is instantly elevated by a hidden halo. It increases the brilliance of the center stone, offering a sparkle that surprises and delights with every glance.
Pave Bridge
With a pave bridge, microdiamonds are added underneath the center stone, offering a luxurious surprise from the side view. It’s a hidden detail that creates unexpected sparkle as the ring moves.
A pave bridge is the perfect complement for modest pieces like The Maia. With its low-profile setting and elegant hidden halo, this ring is already quietly sophisticated. Adding a pavé bridge introduces a layer of hidden luxury, one that catches the light without overwhelming the design.
