Toi et Moi Rings

Toi et moi means "you and me" in French. This romantic meaning has established toi et moi as a classic engagement ring choice. As a two-stone setting, these rings beautifully represent two souls in love. The two gemstones sit next to each other on the band, mirroring how partners go through life together.

Yet the appeal of toi et moi rings extends beyond romance. Whether you're celebrating a non-romantic relationship or yourself, the luxury of two stunning gemstones makes toi et moi rings a beautiful, versatile statement piece perfect for showcasing your personal style.

Toi et moi rings feature two center stones in one band. The pairing of colors and shapes is a major opportunity for a one-of-a-kind ring. With your selection of gemstones, you can completely personalize your ring.

"You and me" can imply many things: maybe the two featured gemstones represent your children, the incorporation of an heirloom, or the resetting of your engagement ring to add a wedding day gem.

Toi et moi rings are one of the biggest engagement ring trends, back in popular demand since being worn by Ariana Grande, Kylie Jenner, and more.

Also adding to the new interest in toi et moi is the jewelry wearer's quest for originality. If this ring is not fully customized, it at least has the look and feel of being so. Two stones offer the chance to experiment with endless shapes and colors. With so many options to complement or contrast, the odds are your toi et moi ring design will be exceptional and unique to you.

1. Proportion: Make sure there's visual balance.

Size: Ensure one stone doesn't dwarf the other.

Shape: Ensure the shapes fit together (generally at least one round stone always works).

Depth: Ensure the heights are similar—if one gem is much taller than the other, it'll loom over the second stone and be more prone to snagging.

2. Shape: Are you looking for elegant symmetry in your stones, or do you want a dynamic juxtaposition that feels fresh? Round shapes like ovals and pears sit well with any gem shape. So if you want a bit of edge, but don't want things so predictably cohesive, bring in an angular emerald or princess cut for your other stone.

3. Color: Two colorless diamonds are fail-safe options as long as the color grade is the same (otherwise they'll distract and invite comparison). But consider adding a striking color in your side-by-side gems. Green emeralds, red rubies, and blue sapphires are go-tos when you want sturdy gems with rich, deep hues. They also harmonize well with white diamonds if you just want one vibrant pop.

These classic shapes tend to make up at least one half of the two-stone toi et moi. Nostalgic or modern, here are a few starting points:

Emerald Cut: "Sophisticated" is never far behind when discussing this gem cut. Long and linear, its clean, strong shape won't overcrowd.

Pear: This shape makes for a beautiful toi et moi ring. With both a sharp point and soft curves, it's not only eye-catching but also completely versatile.

Round: The most popular shape for all rings, it implies everlasting love and commitment. Its brilliance is unmatched, perfect for bringing out the best in a toi et moi.
