Rare Carat’s live Top 20 Most Popular Engagement Rings page has become a barometer for what’s hot right now—surfacing enduring silhouettes (solitaires, halos) alongside modern twists (hidden halos, vintage‑inspired details). Expect clean lines, slender bands, and cut‑first diamond picks—reinforced by the platform’s Rare Carat Ideal filter and free human gemologist checks. (Rare Carat)
What’s trending (and why buyers choose them)
Solitaires stay #1—but with slimmer, comfort‑fit shanks. The Aurora and Leah four‑prong solitaires appear throughout the Top 20; a minimalist frame puts the center stone first, while slim 1.7–2.0 mm bands add everyday wearability. (Rare Carat)
Hidden halos surge. Designs like the Charlotte Hidden Halo give side‑view sparkle and “face‑up” presence without changing the solitaire look from the top—aligning with national trend data showing hidden halos breaking into the top two settings in 2024. (Rare Carat)
Vintage & pavé accents for texture. Twisted pavé (Emily), classic halos (Grace) and marquise motifs (Betty) round out Rare Carat’s live popularity board—choices that photograph beautifully and stack well with curved bands. (Rare Carat)

"I love my new ring! I get compliments all the time! I was afraid that the lab created would be dull compared to the natural diamond but you cannot tell at ALL! Very happy I went lab made and saved a bunch of money! Pictures don’t do this ring justice"
"Sparkles for days. This ring glitters and is bright even in a dim room. Lab-grown is absolutely the way to go if you want the most quality for your dollar."
"It took approximately two weeks from the time of order to receive my ring. Mine is a size 4.5. It has 17 diamonds totaling 2.7 tcw. I would wear a size 4 if not for my big knuckles. I got an eternity ring because my stones always end up on the bottom of my hand. My 10 year upgrade and I love it. And yes, I am of a mature age! LOL."
