What Is A
Toi Et Moi Engagement Ring?
By THALIA M. ESPANA
One of the most romantic moments in a couple’s life is the marriage proposal, and while a beautiful diamond or stone ring is usually placed on the left hand, the Toi et Moi ring consists of two stones. Toi et Moi translates to “you and me” in French, and it represents both people in the relationship who are soon to be united as one.
This ring can be customized however you like, but gemologist Olivia Landau suggests using stones that are long-lasting with each other for everyday wear, such as diamonds, sapphires, or rubies. This luxurious engagement ring has gained popularity, and we’ve seen celebrities like Ariana Grande and Megan Fox wear one, as well as former first lady Jackie Kennedy.
When designing your Toi et Moi ring, you should consider the shape, color, and size. First, choose two stones of the same size for visual symmetry, and then choose a color stone meaningful for you and your partner, so it can either be their birthstone, their favorite color, or one that tells a story of how you fell in love.
