About Verragio

Verragio was founded by Barry Verragio, who started his career in the jewelry industry at the very young age of 14, as an apprentice to an expert “master” jewelry maker. After building an understanding of the jewelry market, and mastering the art of jewelry creation, he resolved to continue developing his skills by attending the famous Fashion Institute of Technology.

There, he learned from some of the top professors in the jewelry design field, such as Maurice Galley who earned his reputation through years of working at Tiffany & Co. With the help of Galley, Barry Verragio began creating his designs for bridal jewelry and engagement rings.

In the 90s, Verragio amassed an abundance of experience in fine jewelry designing and had started his very own unique setting technique.

Charmingly, the first Verragio ring ever created was for his then-girlfriend. It was an engagement ring and she soon became his wife.

The engagement ring for which he proposed to his fiancé employed his special setting technique, called Lumino, which suspends center stones stunningly. This unique setting emitted more light, therefore enabling the stone to produce much more brilliance and fire.

His first ring brought him a lot of recognition, eventually propelling him to the top of the designer bridal jewelry game. Since then, he has continued to innovate and create beautiful engagement rings and bridal jewelry for newlyweds across the world.

Verragio Collections

Verragio utilizes different settings, and their design philosophy focuses on enhancing the engagement ring’s entire appearance, rather than just trying to create an overpowering presence. No matter how intricate the setting is, Verragio makes the center diamond the main attraction.

There are numerous Verragio collections, each targeting a certain niche market, as to meet the wants and needs of people from all walks of life. One thing that is consistent in all the collections is they are all handcrafted with innovative designs and they evoke a powerful sensation of prestige.

Parisian Collection

The Parisian Collection is Verragio’s most recent line of economical vintage-inspired ring designs. The unique aspect of this collection is their modifiable shoulders and option to use 14K gold, which has lower costs.

Venetian Collection

The Venetian Collection focuses on side profiles and accents, with exquisitely elaborate craftsmanship and detailing. Venetian designs are very unique and will be different than anything you’ve seen before. Furthermore, there are five ways that you can customize the lower portion of each ring’s design.

Couture Collection

The Couture Collection presents Verragio’s trademark Lumina setting with crown shaped bezels under the centerpiece stone. This collection highlights multi-colored gold – two-toned white & rose gold – and a crisp, clean-cut design.

Insignia Collection

The Insignia Collection features thoughtful, handcrafted ring designs with fancily decorated scrolls, gentle swirls, and it uses Verragio’s trademark Lumino setting. Insignia designs make for an extremely elegant look, as the use of the curves and fine details create a feminine demeanor.

Paradiso Collection

The Paradiso collection bestows gorgeous scrolling artistry designed for comfort. Paradiso rings are perfect for those with an active lifestyle. The designs offer attractive combos of function and form. By using a scalloped design on the bottom of the shanks, the fit complies beautifully with the contours of the finger, allowing for a snug fit, preventing slippage.

Renaissance Collection

The Renaissance Collection is a rebirth of the classic engagement ring. It heavily draws inspiration from Italy’s Tuscan region and its architectural masterpieces, placing emphasis on symmetry and proportion.

Men’s Collection

Yes, men have a special collection dedicated to them. The Men’s Collection at Verragio is made up of wedding bands for men who are seeking distinctiveness and have a fashion forward mindset.

Overall, Verragio provides some of the most unique and authentic designs in the bridal jewelry industry.

Furthermore, there are a few factors we want to mention which we believe make Verragio even more special:

• They’re handcrafted in the USA.
• Every design is made with the people who will wear them in mind.
• The designs take inspiration from the feminine look and beauty of women (think curves, exquisite details and many hidden touches).
• Verragio offers multi-colored rings, so you can keep up with the trends like this years favoritism for yellow and rose gold.
• Verragio engagement rings are customizable, allowing you to get creative (special gemstones like birthstones and sapphire being super popular now).
• Engagement rings have the perfect matching wedding bands for you to stack after marriage. Although it is super easy to mix and match a coordinated custom look.

You really can’t go wrong with Verragio. Soon-to-be fiancés, brides, wives, grooms, and husbands have been made satisfied by Verragio for over 20 years.

Now let’s discuss how we chose the top 10 Verragio Engagement Rings for 2019…

How we chose the top 10 Verragio Engagement Rings for 2019

When choosing the top 10 Verragio Engagement Rings for 2019, we swept the Internet seeking the most popular designs by Verragio at this current time, and from Q3 and Q4 of 2018. We also used one of the most engaging social media networking sites, Pinterest, amongst other sources, to get a good idea of what’s trending. Furthermore, we took into consideration the overall trend in engagement rings for 2019.

We are confident that the choices we made will remain strong through 2019 and into 2020.

Below we will explain the biggest trends for engagement rings in 2019. This should help you understand our top 10 picks, which are just below this next section.

Engagement Ring Trends for 2019

When deciding on an engagement ring for your fiancé (or yourself – another trend in recent years is that women are choosing the rings they want and telling their man what to buy), there is no one “right way” to go about it. Everyone is different, and everyone has different tastes.

If you are having any doubts, a “good way” to guide your decision is by consulting the latest trends in the industry.

Here are the biggest trends (some of which are consistent year after year). We won’t explain all of the trends in great depth, as to get to the top 10 picks quicker, but we will on a few. 

Rose Gold (and Yellow Gold)

Many people are ditching the cool-toned (platinum and white gold) bands to embrace a warmer feel – Rose and Yellow Gold bands. Due to the popularity of white gold and platinum in the past years, rose gold has become a very distinct option for engagement rings. Yellow and rose gold are really in right now.

Sapphires (and Colored Stones)

When the Duchess of Cambridge made her debut in 2010, there was a lot of talk about her deep-blue sapphire engagement ring. Since then, color stones have been strong on the radar, especially sapphires. They really pop. Moreover, this trend doesn’t seem to be going anywhere, thanks in part to Princess Eugenie’s beautiful padparadscha sapphire ring which got a ton of attention at her recent wedding. 

Multi-Stone Rings (Two and Three-Stone)

Side stones are really making their mark at the moment. The use of triangle and baguette cuts creates an Art Deco Silhouette, ultimately giving the ring some serious stature.

Two-Tone

Mixed metals are common in everyday ring stacks, but they are now a trend in single engagement rings, and a very popular one no less. You will see below in a few of the rings how the mix of white and rose gold really makes the ring stand out, especially the centerpiece. Furthermore, the mix of metals can be done in many ways.   

Halo Settings

For those who adore white diamond center stones, oval, cushion, and pear cut are perfect for bold halos with intricate banding.

It’s not just round stones that are getting the halo love; many cuts and unique shapes are employing a halo setting now too. 

Oval Stones (Elongated Cuts)

Elongated stones have been in for quite some time now, and they won’t be slowing down in 2019. Oval and other elongated cuts appear to be much longer than they really are, which is probably why they are so popular.

Of course, Vintage Style Engagement Rings are going to be in, as per usual, along with the following trends: 

• Twisted Shanks
• Double Shanks
• Twisted Settings
• Unique Bands
