Designer Ring Jackets: The Latest Trend for your Wedding Ring 2025

Designer Ring Jackets: The Latest Trend for your Wedding Ring 2025

At Fogal and Barnes, we're seeing a surge in popularity for ring jackets - the clever jewellery enhancement that can completely transform your engagement ring. Today, we're showcasing one of our favourite bespoke creations: an Art Deco-inspired ring jacket designed for a stunning trilogy emerald-cut diamond ring.

What Is a Ring Jacket?

A ring jacket is a specially designed band that fits around your existing engagement ring to enhance its appearance. Think of it as a sophisticated frame that can add sparkle, size, and style to your original ring while protecting it.

How Does a Ring Jacket Work?

Ring jackets are crafted with a gap or channel that allows your engagement ring to slip perfectly into place. Our master jewellers carefully design each jacket to:

  • Perfectly contour around your existing ring
  • Secure firmly in place
  • Create a seamless, unified look
  • Allow for easy removal when desired

Why Choose a Ring Jacket?

There are numerous reasons why ring jackets are becoming increasingly popular:

  • Versatility: Wear your engagement ring with or without the jacket
  • Cost-effective: Add impact without replacing your original ring
  • Protection: Additional support for your centre stone
  • Customisation: Transform your ring for special occasions
  • Heritage: Keep your original ring while updating its style

How Much Does a Ring Jacket Cost?

At Fogal and Barnes, bespoke ring jackets typically range from £1,500 to £5,000+, depending on:

  • Design complexity
  • Metal choice
  • Stone selection
  • Size requirements
  • Detailing and finishing

Art Deco Trilogy Ring Enhancement

Our featured piece showcases the transformative power of a ring jacket. Created for a client's emerald-cut trilogy engagement ring, this bespoke jacket draws inspiration from the geometric precision of Art Deco design.

Design Elements:

  • Symmetrical diamond placement
  • Geometric Art Deco patterns
  • Milgrain detailing
  • Platinum setting
  • Channel-set diamonds

Can Any Ring Have a Jacket?

While most rings can be enhanced with a jacket, some designs work better than others. Factors to consider include:

  • Original ring's setting style
  • Stone height and positioning
  • Band width and design
  • Metal compatibility
  • Overall proportions

How to Choose the Perfect Ring Jacket

Consider these factors when selecting your ring jacket:

  • Style Compatibility: Should complement your existing ring
  • Wear Pattern: Consider your lifestyle and daily activities
  • Metal Match: Ensure metals match or intentionally contrast
  • Stone Alignment: Proper spacing for stone security
  • Overall Balance: Maintain proportional aesthetics
