Taylor Swift once sang she’d get married with paper rings, but this one is anything but paper.
“You can see antique style, yellow-gold mounting, needlepoint prongs with some diamonds on the shoulder, and engravings on the shoulder,” Khordipour said. “It’s really something amazing.”
For Khordipour, the rarity of the stone is what makes it stand out as his “favorite” ring he’s seen so far this year.
“It’s very unique. It’s not something you’ll see on anyone else’s hand,” he said, noting that antique cushions of that size and shape are difficult to source.
The choice also fits Swift’s personality, he added.
“She’s very unique, very alternative, so this makes complete sense. I would never think of her getting something standard.”
Antique and vintage styles have surged in popularity in recent years, and Khordipour said Swift’s choice is on-trend.
“For antique jewelers, it’s really something amazing…the trend is vintage and antique, so I’m happy she went with it.”
