Can we talk about Taylor Swift's engagement ring?

I love it!

Is it an elongated cushion cut?
Do I see a very delicate halo?
Thoughts on the chunky gold band?
Gold prongs holding the diamond in place? I would have expected platinum for a white diamond. Can still have yellow gold band. (Advice from Flik, royal jeweller on Tiktok)
And the size of the stone!
What sort of wedding band would go? Fitted? Or will a straight band sit flush?

Obviously just this particular picture, but I thought it was a skull at first glance 💀

this, and after the debacle at Jacks wedding she absolutely wouldn't tease the date. She's more likely to require NDAs from her guests than leave breadcrumbs for batshit fans to storm the wedding

I'm really surprised that they publicised this

I have been a fan of hers from the very beginning. I often tell the tale of how someone walked into my office and said "oh my God, are you listening to country music?" Because prior to that, my colleagues used to think I always had really good taste! And I said "excuse me, this woman is gonna be big". Little did I know... when I said big I didn't mean this level!

Anhow, I don't pay much attention to her personal life. Or anyone's personal life.

I just figured that eventually she'd be on a chat show or something with a ring on and she'd say "oh yeah, by the way, we got married."

Because they have helicopters flying over when she's trying to shoot a music video! And I'm thinking of the "out of the woods" video so that's ages ago! So there's no chance of keeping this quiet.

Maybe they've just decided to go all out and if it's on a private island or something, then the paparazzi get what they get I guess.

Anyway, I wish them all the best. Excited for the new album which I wasn't really expecting. I thought she'd have some kind of actual rest after the Eras tour! More fool
me 😂 a new Taylor album will certainly brighten up the winter!

It's got a bit of an art deco feel to it which fits very well with her aesthetic imo.

It's just not very "sparkly" for such a big rock

I desperately want more photos

Thereislightattheendofthetunnel · 26/08/2025 22:08

I can only see a Mexican wrestler face on it. It’s awful

savethatkitty · 26/08/2025 22:10

Hideous. Garish. Too much. It looks like a giant blob. I zoomed in on a picture of the ring & it was just as ugly up close.

Plastictreees · 26/08/2025 22:11

I’m not a fan, but I think I’d need more photos to truly decide!

Denim4ever · 26/08/2025 22:15

ShesTheAlbatross · 26/08/2025 22:01

That’s a good point. I wonder if there’s space under it for a thin ring to sit.

Speaking from experience, I have a flat wedding ring and a triangular set engagement ring. I had to give up wearing them together as it wasn't especially practical.

myles2608 · 26/08/2025 22:15

As long as they are happy who on earth needs to judge them. They are in love who gets to dictate or decide whether it is or isn't. Let them be happy in their forever moment. I wish them happiness. X

Vitriolinsanity · 26/08/2025 22:18

It looks like it has a face in the photos.

Although not conclusive I’d wager that there’s a big correlation between not liking TS and not liking her choice of engagement ring. Even in something that presumably makes her very happy some people elect to denigrate her ability and her achievement.

I dunno, I love Taylor, hate the ring. It’s too old fashioned for me, but fits her personal brand so presume she’d like it. But I like an understated ring - my fashion/jewellery taste isn’t that closely aligned to my music taste though

appledoors · 26/08/2025 22:21

I have zero knowledge of rings but love watching endless Flick reviews on TikTok!

BUMCHEESE · 26/08/2025 22:25

I'm not a TS fan but really like it. It's unusual and somehow not flashy despite being an absolutely huge diamond. I think because it's vintage style / old cut.

I used to really enjoy her ring reviews but unfortunately she's now had a baby and become a mum blogger :-( so her content is just the same as that of a million others.

I'd rather have a nice "old-fashioned" ring than a "fashionable" one which, by definition, looks just the same as the ones everybody else gets.

PunishmentSnart · 26/08/2025 22:35

I don’t like it - I picture old fashioned as a coloured gem not a diamond tbf- but I’m absolutely made up for her, if she loves it, that’s all that matters. Dont know her obvs but she seems like a lovely young talented lady who deserves all the happiness.

BadDinner · 26/08/2025 22:35

I'm not a Swift fan, but sincere question, why do posters describe her as an old soul and having a vintage aesthetic?

I have never observed her to have a vintage style in clothing. Not even granny chic. Everything I have seen her in has been trendy.

Any pics? Clearly I missed it and I love vintage fashion.

I adore the ring, absolutely gorgeous! Girl has great taste in Jewelry. The proposal backdrop was stunning.

CactusFan · 26/08/2025 22:36

@appledoors Flik has already reacted and says she loves it - she notes:

10ct
antique cushion
tapered shoulders
4 claws
Can't tell re bezel/halo

CactusFan · 26/08/2025 22:38

Flik says also that the designer of the ring follows her!

Twice now you've called women birds! What the hells wrong with you? You sound like some drunken pig out on the pull, have some respect for the female race

SandyLanes · 26/08/2025 22:41

I think she’s quite into the whole vintage look so I think it really suits her.

Theresabatinmykitchen · 26/08/2025 22:48

It looks like a 1970’s style ring to me, dated rather than vintage, a bit Peter Stringfellow for my taste.

sweetkitty · 26/08/2025 22:49

So happy for her, she seems to have been unlucky in love in the past. Not so keen on the ring but I’m not the one wearing it and jewellery is a personal thing so who cares as long as the wearer loves it that’s all that matters

BlueEyedBogWitch · 26/08/2025 22:50

That rock’s big enough to have its own gravitational pull.

I love it.
