The crossover ring first became popular in the Edwardian and Belle Époque period. Jewellery at this time was typically elegant and the recent introduction of platinum into jewellery allowed craftsmen to work with more apparent delicacy and softness. Concurrently, the Art Nouveau movement promoted flowing lines and soft curves, taking inspiration from nature. The resulting designs made their way directly into the jewellery of the period. The idea of two central stones is especially apt for an engagement ring. Sometimes referred to as a ‘toi et moi' ring, this style represents the joining of two - a most romantic idea for an engagement ring.
