If you are thinking about proposing this month, you are in good company, and you are also in the right town to find a ring that suits the moment. At Olde Towne Jewelers, we have helped Santa Rosa couples start this chapter since 1993. A ring is one of the few things you buy once and keep for the rest of your life, so it is worth getting it right. The good news is that finding the right one is a lot more enjoyable than people expect, especially when nobody is rushing you. You can browse our engagement rings in Santa Rosa online first, then come see your favorites in person.
Antique, vintage, or modern?
One of the first things to figure out is the kind of ring that fits your partner. We carry all three styles, and each one says something a little different.
Antique and vintage diamond engagement rings come with history built in. The craftsmanship from earlier eras is hard to replicate, and there is a romance to giving someone a ring that has already lived a long life before reaching their hand. If your partner loves old films, estate sales, or anything with character, this is a wonderful place to look.
Modern rings, on the other hand, give you clean lines and the chance to start a brand new story. There is no wrong answer here. It comes down to who your partner is and what feels like them.
If you are not sure which way to lean, that is exactly what we are here for. Come in, look at a few pieces side by side, and the right one usually starts to make itself known.
When nothing in the case is quite right
Sometimes a person has a very clear picture in their head, and the ring in that picture does not exist yet. That is where custom jewelry design comes in. We can work with you to create something built entirely around your partner, whether that means reimagining a family stone, blending a few ideas you have collected, or starting from a blank page.
Custom design takes a little more time than buying off the shelf, so if a June proposal is the goal, it is smart to start the conversation soon. The result is a ring nobody else in the world is wearing, which is hard to beat.
Do not forget the bands
A proposal is the beginning, not the finish line. When the time comes, we carry wedding bands for both partners, including women's wedding bands and men's wedding bands, from simple and classic to designs with a bit more detail. Plenty of couples like to think about how the engagement ring and the wedding band will sit together, and we are glad to help you plan that pairing early so everything feels intentional later on.
Come see us before you pop the question
A proposal deserves more than a rushed online order. Stop by, see our engagement rings in person, ask every question you have, and let us help you find or build something worthy of the answer you are hoping for. The team at our Santa Rosa shop genuinely enjoys this part of the job, and we will take the time to make sure you feel confident before you walk out the door.
