I'm not sure why it took Amal Clooney 25 minutes to accept her emerald cut, triple stone engagement ring from George — I'd be begging for him to slip that sparkler onto my finger. (OK, I'm kidding, Amal was probably just shocked by George's proposal). Even so, Amal's design, which she received in April 2014 ahead of the couple's nuptials, is the type that deserves a close-up. It reportedly weighs in at over seven carats and features a baguette on each side of the gorgeous centre stone. Professionals guess that the ring cost a whopping $600,000 to $750,000, so it makes sense that Amal still wears it for many fancy occasions, various work outings, and red carpet appearances — this stunner certainly deserves the spotlight.
While I consider Amal's ring design to be glamorous, the structure is sophisticated, and Amal is just that. She seamlessly works the diamond with gold jewellery, floor-sweeping gowns, and modest shift dresses for on-duty moments, proving that even an engagement ring this extravagant can still be considered versatile. If you're a gal who dreams of wearing something extraordinary like Amal's emerald shaped accessory, I shopped out some similar versions for you ahead at a variety of price points. But first, zoom in on Amal's finest moments showing off her engagement ring.
