FAQs About Split Shank Engagement Rings

What is a split shank engagement ring?

A design where the band divides into two or more arms as it approaches the center stone, creating an open, elegant frame.

Are split shank engagement rings more expensive than regular styles?

Not always because cost depends on diamond size, metal, and detailing, not solely the split design.

Do split shank settings make the center diamond look bigger?

Yes, the open design naturally draws the eye toward the center, enhancing its perceived size.

Is a split shank engagement ring comfortable for everyday wear?

With proper fit and finishing, it’s as comfortable as a single-band style.

Can a split shank ring be resized easily?

Most can, though designs with extensive pavé may require specialized work.

Explore our Split Shank Engagement Ring Collection

The split shank engagement ring became popular during the Art Deco period, when symmetry and architectural lines changed the way bridal jewelry looked. The band in this style splits into two graceful arcs that lead the eye to the center stone and leave room for intricate details.
Our collection includes everything from simple solitaire engagement rings with a small split to fancy split shank halo engagement rings with diamonds set in pavé.

Pairing Split Shank Engagement Ring with Wedding Band

A split shank engagement ring with a wedding band should feel balanced, with the shapes and sparkle of each ring complementing one another.

  • Elegant harmony: Pair a split shank diamond engagement ring with a pavé wedding band for a continuous shimmer that mirrors the setting’s brilliance.
  • Shaped perfection: Choose a contoured or notched band to nestle against the curves of a split shank halo engagement ring, ensuring a precise, snug fit.
  • Modern contrast: For a clean, minimalist effect, pair your split shank with a smooth metal wedding ring that creates a subtle break from diamond detailing.
These combinations also work beautifully when stacking with eternity wedding bands or marking milestones with anniversary rings.

Your Split Shank Engagement Ring Buying Guide

When choosing the right split shank diamond engagement ring, think about your lifestyle first.

  • A plain split gives a subtle touch of elegance, while pavé-set arms add the most sparkle.
  • A split shank oval engagement ring is perfect for a flattering, longer look.
  • A halo setting, on the other hand, adds extra sparkle for a bold look.
  • Make sure the design sits well if you want to wear it with a wedding band.
  • Think about the type of metal you want; yellow, white, and rose gold all have different effects.
  • Remember that more complicated styles may need more care.

Craftsmanship behind our Split Shank Engagement Rings

Every split shank engagement ring is the result of careful craftsmanship and technical accuracy. Our jewelers shape each arm to make sure that the design is perfectly symmetrical and strong, whether it's a simple solitaire or a fully decorated pavé style. To make sure they’re clear and have a lot of fire, diamonds are picked by hand and then set under magnification to make sure they are in the right place and shine evenly.
In French pavé styles, V-cut settings make less metal visible, which lets more light shine on each stone.
Many designs echo elements from our cathedral engagement rings or vintage engagement rings, blending heritage details with modern craftsmanship to create a piece that is as enduring as it is captivating.
