Enhanced Sparkle: Double Band Engagement Rings with Extra Accent Diamonds

Double bands on engagement rings simply refer to a setting featuring two connected bands, giving the impression of two separate rings but remaining a single piece.

Double band engagement rings are available in a variety of styles and can be paired with many different stones. They come in rose gold, white gold, yellow gold, platinum, or even other metals. Here is a breakdown of these three popular types of gold double band engagement rings.

Gold, in its purest form, has a natural yellow hue but is too soft for jewelry use. To create suitable alloys for jewelry, gold is mixed with other metals, altering its color.

The most popular gold shades are yellow, white, and rose, as mentioned previously. Additionally, gold alloys can sometimes be found in bronze, red, or lime.

Yellow gold is made by blending gold with silver, copper, and zinc, closely resembling pure gold but remaining relatively soft and prone to scratches.
White gold is created by combining gold with nickel, palladium, and silver. Despite a slight yellow tint, white gold is often plated with rhodium to give it its whitish appearance.
Rose gold, also known as “pink gold” or “red gold,” results from mixing pure gold with copper. The higher the copper content, the redder the hue.

Variations in Double Band Engagement Rings

Double band engagement rings come in all shades of gold. They can also feature twisted and curved designs. While a smooth circular finish similar to a single band is common, variations include twisted or curved bands. Some rings feature one straight and one twisted band, and others might have both bands twisted and curved.

These details are based on personal preference. Bands can either be plain or encrusted with pave diamonds, adorning both bands or just one. Customization options are abundant with this engagement ring style.

Double band engagement rings do not always have two bands extending across the entire ring. Some designs feature double bands only at the front, merging into a single band at the back. These rings can accommodate any diamond cut, such as round, princess, oval, marquise, pear-shaped, cushion cut, emerald cut, Asscher cut, radiant cut, heart-shaped diamonds, and more.

Popularity of Double Band Engagement Rings

While double band engagement rings might not be the most ubiquitous choice, they are still highly sought after. Women who desire a more extravagant and unique ring gravitate towards these designs. Due to their larger size, they cover more finger space, a feature many women appreciate. Below are some of our most popular double band diamond rings for inspiration.
