An east west engagement ring is a ring style where the main gemstone sits across the band horizontally—instead of vertically. It is a unique setting with a distinctively modern look which sets it apart from traditional-style engagement rings.
This east west engagement ring's personality radiates sophisticated vibes and simple elegance.
This could be the ring style for you if you prefer a contemporary or minimalist aesthetic. And it’s an excellent way to highlight a longer or interestingly-shaped diamond, as well as a beautiful colored gemstone.
With a horizontal setting instead of the traditional classic vertically placed stone setting, you can choose any cut of diamond from a pear to marquise to emerald to oval for that trendy style!
Is she that bride that loves to be modern yet different? We have a wide variety of horizontal settings just for her. Explore more of our top-notch lab-created engagement rings, made from 100% ethical diamonds.
Diamond Accents and Metal Colors
When people shop for rings, their focus is mostly on how shiny the diamonds are. However, the east west rings create that extra finishing beauty for your diamond ring. Whether you glitz up your ring with diamond accents or an interesting metal like rose gold, with an east west engagement ring, you're not left behind.
Setting Durability
When looking out for an east west engagement ring, be sure that the horizontal setting must be strong enough to hold the center stone of your choice, as this ensures durability.
Consider Trends
Although the east west ring can be worn with any stone cut, a hint is to search for the emerald, pear, and oval cuts as they cannot be any more magnificent, and they have topped the trend in recent years.

Emerald Cut Diamonds
The clean lines of an emerald cut stone for a center diamond makes a statement with its brilliance. You could go with the long emerald (just make sure you check in on that length-to-width ratio) or even the shorter emerald and add some side stones to make it even more stunning.
Oval and Marquise Diamonds
Looking to get that sparkly vibe for her? The east west oval is what you need. It allows enough light through to the center stone to display its elegance. Another options is the marquise cut shape that speaks for itself and says "class." And no matter the shape you choose, they'll all look good in a east west setting of any metal color, whether you choose yellow gold, platinum, or white gold.
Whether your partner loves modern minimalism or is all for bold and stunning, the east west ring styles are a game-changer, mainly because of their horizontal setting twist.
