Engagement Ring Band Profiles
Each LOUISE JEAN Signature Engagement design is crafted with a half-round band which is designed to stack beautifully with our Wedding Ring styles. However, we do offer our clients the opportunity to alter their band profile and width.
For those opting for centre stones 1.5ct and larger we recommend a width of 1.8mm or 2mm. This achieves the best balance of a fine and dainty aesthetic while maintaining the structural integrity that is essential for a lifetime piece. Continue reading to learn more.

Our most popular band profile…the Half-Round band offers the appearance of a traditional round band. Designed with a rounded top section and flat sides, this profile is perfect for stacking against other LOUISE JEAN Wedding Rings.

SQUARE-EDGE
The Square-Edge band profile is as the name suggests a squared corner band. Offering a clean and modern look, this profile showcases the true width of the band whereas a half-round band offers the illusion of a slimmer band.
Our Ceremonial Solitaire, Signature Bezel Solitaire, Amira, Bezel Amira & Signature Double Band designs can be created with a square-edge band in 1.6mm, 1.8mm & 2mm widths.

KNIFE-EDGE
The Knife-Edge profile has been around since the 1800s but has had a recent upswing in popularity due to its unique appeal and distinct edge that catches the light. This profile is designed with a ‘knife’ or ‘peak’ top edge with flat sides similar to our Half-Round band to accommodate for ring stacking. Soft to the touch this profile is striking in design and exudes understated elegance.
