Modern Jewelry Trends

The latest ring style has that “fresh picked in a diamond mine” look. Pave flower rings are sprouting up all over, with celebrities on both coasts sporting the big blossoms on the red carpet.

In one of the best recent examples of the look, Ali Larter (who according to the Heroes blogs may have flower related powers to boot) wore a dramatic Bochic jade and black diamond flower ring to the Alberta Ferretti flagship store opening hosted by Vogue in Los Angeles.

The style isn’t new: Roberto Coin’s enamel rose rings have been popular since 2007. Modern Jeweler has also featured interesting examples from La Reina, Sevan, Super Bell, and DiLuca. But the trend seems to be accelerating along with the sixties pop-art flavor of jewelry fashion today.

But does a rose-shaped ring smell as sweet? Maybe. John Hardy’s new couture collection includes a whole bouquet of flower-power “scent” rings that open to hold a drop of perfume.
