Heart Shaped Solitaire Engagement Rings

7 handcrafted designs · Hatton Garden, London

The heart shape is the most overtly romantic diamond cut — a modified brilliant with a distinctive cleft at the top. It requires exceptional cutting skill to achieve symmetrical proportions and balanced lobes. Heart shaped diamonds are a bold, meaningful choice for those who want their engagement ring to make a romantic statement.

The solitaire is the purest expression of an engagement ring — a single diamond held aloft by a minimal setting, letting the stone speak entirely for itself. Solitaire settings have been the most popular engagement ring style for over a century, prized for their timeless simplicity and the way they showcase the diamond without distraction.
