Asher Cut Eternity Wedding Band

After they were awarded an exclusive contract for Louis Vuitton in 2007, Lili Jewelry’s parent company Lili Diamonds impressed Louis Vuitton jewelry director Albert Bensoussan to such an extent he believed that the manufacturer’s diamond cutters in Tel Aviv could cut Vuitton diamonds blindfolded, if asked. 

A brand owned and operated by Israel-based diamond company Lili Diamonds — which was originally called Siman-Tov Bros. at the time of its founding in 1981 — Lili Jewelry has facilities in Hong Kong and New York City and employs a global design team known worldwide for its trademarked original cuts and deep expertise of constantly morphing fashion and jewelry trends. 

Lili Diamonds’ cutters are extraordinarily seasoned in their field and knowledgeable of the ultra-cherished April birthstone, and two of Lili Jewelry’s five leading individual cuts — the Lily cut, Orchidea cut, Crisscut, Crisscut Cushion and Meteor cut — are only available to jewelry lovers as embedded into jewelry designs created by Lili Jewelry. 

The brand’s parent company still holds the worldwide patent for its flower-like Lily Cut, granted in 1996, but since the agreement between Louis Vuitton and Lily Diamonds was inked in 2007, all Lily cut diamonds are reserved for Louis Vuitton jewelry, which is an ideal pairing owing to the fact that the company’s monogram’s flowers so often appear on its trunks (the famous LV monogram was first used in 1896).

Along with worldwide recognition, Lili Jewelry has garnered accolades including being named one of the top ten diamond brands by the Rapaport Group. Former Miss Nevada Sarah Chapman once wore a $2M collection of Lili Jewelry designs to the Encore Beach Club and Surrender Nightclub at Encore Las Vegas in 2012.

Rings have been symbols of devotion since the days of Ancient Greece, a practice later adopted by the Romans for marriage ceremonies. Bridal rings were given an official meaning by Pope Nicholas I in the year 850 as proving a man’s intent to marry his bride-to-be. Antique sapphire and diamond bridal rings continue to hold meaning for many couples today.

Precious stones sometimes adorned these early engagement rings and bridal rings, which were usually gold bands. Diamond engagement rings and diamond bridal ring sets weren’t the dominant choices until 1947 when De Beers popularized them with their “A diamond is forever” marketing campaign.

Recent trends in jewelry design have seen the rise of diverse gems and metals in bridal rings. Rubies, sapphires and other colorful precious gems have quickly gained favor with brides who want a unique and vibrant bridal ring.

Modern bridal ring styles can be breathtaking and break traditional trends, while vintage engagement rings harken back to this rich heritage of design. Featured on 1stDibs is a stunning array of bridal rings from world-famous jewelers including Tiffany & Co., Roman Malakov and Antinori Fine Jewels.
