Marrow Fine Jewelry’s Hit List Of Fall 2022 Engagement Ring Trends

By Victoria Gomelsky | September 14, 2022

In late August, JCK sat down with Marrow Fine Jewelry founder Jillian Sassone during a press preview event at the Proper Hotel in Santa Monica, Calif. The table where she showed the brand’s latest assortment of wedding jewelry was set with colorful macarons, but they paled beside the teal Montana sapphires, watery aquamarines, saturated emeralds, and gray spinels Sassone showed off in her fall 2022 engagement ring collection. (Don’t worry—there were plenty of diamonds too!)

Below, we highlight the trends Sassone noted, most of which dovetailed with what we saw at the JCK show in Las Vegas in June. In short, chunkier, bezel-set rings; white metal; antique cuts (cushion, old European, and oval); and saturated colors are poised to win hearts and minds this fall, so be sure you’re stocked!

Chunkier Bezel Settings

“It was dainty for so long, now people are looking for chunkier styles,” Sassone tells JCK.

Marrow Fine bezel set Roxy ring — *The Roxy ring in 18k yellow gold with 1 ct. emerald-cut diamond, $8,600*

White Metal

“Gen Z has brought white metal back,” says Sassone. “Yellow gold is what their moms wore.”

Saturated Colors

Marrow Fine Malysheva emerald engagement ring — *Ballerina ring in 14k yellow gold with 2.64 ct. Malysheva emerald from Russia and 1.7 cts. t.w. diamonds, $28,000*

Enamel Bands—For the Guys

“Enamel is killing it for us,” says Sassone, citing Marrow’s Til Death bands. “Guys love them. They’re a modern take on vintage style.”

Toi et Moi Rings

“Two-stone is really big right now,” says Sassone. “It has a vintage feel.”

Antique Diamonds

Marrow Fine Vintage Anne White Gold Engagement Ring — *Vintage Anne engagement ring setting, starting at $8,500*

Cigar Bands

“Our best-performing social posts always have a cigar band,” says Sassone. “And men love them too.”

Custom Cuts

“We have a cutter in Honolulu, Glenn Preus,” says Sassone. “He specializes in really interesting facets and egg shapes. His spinels are stunning. He sources the rough and cuts it. One of his offbeat cuts is the ‘mermaid tail’—we have it in an aqua.”
