That’s why engagement rings and wedding bands in styles that have already proven that they can stand the test of time are perfect picks for celebrating the bond that you share with your one special someone. <a href="http://applesofgold.com/Diamond-Bridal-Sets-DBRS.html">Diamond bridal sets</a> that are inspired by times past are the perfect celebrations of a love that only grows as the decades go by.</p>
<p><a href="http://applesofgold.com/HGO-R125WB20.html"><img class="alignright" alt="Vintage Flower 1/4 Carat Diamond Wedding Ring Set" src="http://applesofgold.com/Merchant2/vintage-jewelry/vintage-rings/HGO-R125WB20C.jpg" width="385" height="277" /></a>The <a href="http://applesofgold.com/HGO-R125WB20.html">Vintage Flower 1/4 Carat Diamond Wedding Ring Set</a> is adorned with flowers that will never fail to bloom. This unique engagement and wedding ring set features a bouquet’s worth of meticulously-carved flowers, all perfectly placed upon an airy foundation of 14K white gold. The engagement ring in this set is highlighted by a quarter-carat round diamond that’s surrounded by a gleaming framework of openwork and floral motifs. The coordinating slender wedding band is adorned with similar motifs and curves alongside its partner in perfect harmony. This pair is a lovely way to celebrate love that is always blossoming.</p>
<p><a href="http://applesofgold.com/DWR-3.html"><img class="alignleft" alt="3/4 Carat Art Deco Diamond Wedding Ring Set" src="http://applesofgold.com/Merchant2/images/rings/DWR-3C.jpg" width="291" height="284" /></a>The <a href="http://applesofgold.com/DWR-3.html">3/4 Carat Art Deco Diamond Wedding Ring Set</a> captures the style of the 1920s with dozens of glittering diamonds. The center stone of this pair’s engagement ring is a timeless round stone, slightly over a quarter carat in weight; while this diamond has plenty of sparkle on its own, it’s far from the only source of glimmer in this set. Two concentric frames of smaller round diamonds surround this center stone, forming square-shaped borders with rounded edges that extends that extends the appearance of these rings’ spotlight gem. The bands of the both the engagement ring and the wedding band are studded with additional round diamonds, adding the perfect finishing touch to a look that’s both glamorous and timeless. It would have been just as at home on the left hand of an old Hollywood star as it is on the left hand of any modern sophisticated bride.</p>
<p>No stone captures lasting love quite like a diamond: as the hardest of gemstones it displays a perpetual brilliance that serves as a fitting symbol of lasting love. Vintage <a href="http://applesofgold.com/Bridal-Ring-Sets-BRS.html">bridal ring sets</a> that are overflowing with diamonds amplify this symbolism as they combine time-tested styles with the most resilient and beautiful of gemstones.</p>
<p><a href="http://applesofgold.com/1-69-Carat-Antique-Style-Diamond-Bridal-Set-US-ENS3032W-33SET.html"><img class="alignright" alt="1.69 Carat Antique Style Diamond Bridal Set" src="http://applesofgold.com/Merchant2/engagement-rings/ENS3032WSETC.jpg" width="385" height="385" /></a>The <a href="http://applesofgold.com/1-69-Carat-Antique-Style-Diamond-Bridal-Set-US-ENS3032W-33SET.html">1.69 Carat Antique Style Diamond Bridal Set</a> is a stunning example of a vintage pair that’s lavished with diamonds. Over 160 diamonds glitter from this dazzling engagement ring and wedding band set. A third-carat round diamond rises from the engagement ring, presiding over two diamond-studded bands. Channel-set stones cover every visible side of these bands, divided into rows by delicate beaded edges. This set sparkles from every side, and serves as a lifelong reminder that your love is beautiful no matter how you look at it.</p>
<p>The Victorian Era and the Art Deco period are alive and well in these gorgeous diamond bridal sets, and their enduring beauty is the perfect way to celebrate your lasting love. These vintage engagement and wedding ring sets will never grow old—just like your love.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://applesofgold.com/2-Carat-Antique-Style-Diamond-Bridal-Set-US-ENS3032W-75SET.html"><img class="alignleft  wp-image-2642" alt="03-18-2013 antique-style bridal set" src="http://applesofgold.com/jewelry/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/03-18-2013-antique-style-bridal-set.jpg" width="523" height="368" /></a>The designs of Victorian and Art Deco-inspired <a href="http://applesofgold.com/Diamond-Bridal-Sets-DBRS.html">bridal sets</a> may be old, but they’re far from outdated. Engagement ring and wedding band sets that are inspired by the past capture the beauty and romanticism of times when life moved at a slower pace, and they’re excellent picks when you want to celebrate a love that seems to make time stand still.</p>
<p><a href="http://applesofgold.com/HGO-R128WB21.html"><img class="alignright" alt="Antique-Style 1/3 Carat Diamond Wedding Ring Set" src="http://applesofgold.com/Merchant2/vintage-jewelry/vintage-rings/HGO-R128WB21C.jpg" width="385" height="294" /></a>The lavishly-detailed patterns of the Victorian Era adorn a number of diamond bridal sets, and these meticulously-crafted feminine looks are just as striking today as they were a century ago. For instance, the engagement ring in the <a href="http://applesofgold.com/HGO-R128WB21.html">Antique-Style 1/3 Carat Diamond Wedding Ring Set</a> places a round third-carat diamond within a richly-designed 14K white gold setting that keeps the eye moving with a host of swirls and cutouts. Complementing this piece is a perfectly coordinating slender wedding band that reflects the patterns of its partner and perfectly follows its curves.</p>
<p>While white diamonds are classic picks and may seem like the fitting choice for vintage styles, don’t overlook two less-than-traditional variations: blue diamond and black diamonds. These stones bring unexpected personality to looks inspired by the past, and add a sense of fresh style that brings these rings into the present.</p>
<p><a href="http://applesofgold.com/EGR3900BDW-Set.html"><img class="alignleft" alt="Blue Diamond 1 Carat Art Deco Bridal Set" src="http://applesofgold.com/Merchant2/diamond-rings/EGRBlueSetC.jpg" width="380" height="239" /></a>For instance, the <a href="http://applesofgold.com/EGR3900BDW-Set.html">Blue Diamond 1 Carat Art Deco Bridal Set</a> places a brilliant round 1-carat blue diamond within a setting inspired by the 1920s. This eye-catching gemstone emerges from the opening petals of a gleaming lotus flower and is set upon a band covered with engraved leaves and swirling motifs. Complementing this exquisite engagement ring is a wedding band that displays an identical pattern, continuing it in perfectly-matched fashion. This uniquely beautiful ring is also available with a perpetually chic black diamond as the <a href="http://applesofgold.com/EGR3900BLW-Set.html">1 Carat Art Deco Black Diamond Bridal Set</a>, as well as with a traditional dazzling white diamond as the <a href="http://applesofgold.com/EGR3900-Set.html">1 Carat Art Deco Diamond Bridal Set</a>, which incorporates both white and yellow gold.</p>
<p><a href="http://applesofgold.com/2-Carat-Antique-Style-Diamond-Bridal-Set-US-ENS3032W-75SET.html"><img class="alignright" alt="2 Carat Antique Style Diamond Bridal Set" src="http://applesofgold.com/Merchant2/engagement-rings/ENS3032WSETC.jpg" width="385" height="385" /></a>Of course, a bridal set doesn’t need an uncommon gem to stand out from the crowd—and on your finger. For example, the <a href="http://applesofgold.com/2-Carat-Antique-Style-Diamond-Bridal-Set-US-ENS3032W-75SET.html">2 Carat Antique Style Diamond Bridal Set</a> uses a full two carats of diamonds to create look that will stop traffic. A round 0.75 carat diamond is the centerpiece of the engagement ring in this set, as it rises regally above a host of strong supporting players. Over 150 smaller round diamonds sparkle from both the sides and the top of the bands of both rings, reflecting light from every visible side, while a foundation of shining white gold upholds them. Fine beaded edges offset this pair’s bevy of stones and add textural interest. This vintage style is a stunning celebration of love that’s incredibly precious and that only becomes a greater treasure with the passing of time.</p>
<p>These <a href="http://applesofgold.com/Diamond-Bridal-Sets-DBRS-3.html">diamond bridal sets</a> may display the designs of decades past, but that doesn’t keep them from being stunning in the present. These pairs of engagement rings and wedding bands are dazzling pictures of love that transcends time.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://applesofgold.com/HGO-R121W.html"><img class="alignleft  wp-image-1841" src="http://applesofgold.com/jewelry/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/12-22-2012-vintage-style.jpg" alt="" width="523" height="368" /></a>Although the Christmas season is known for its hustle and bustle, Christmas Eve and Christmas day are often quieter times when businesses are closed and families gather. <a href="http://applesofgold.com/Vintage-Diamond-Rings-V.html">Vintage diamond rings</a> are particularly fitting choices when slowing down to celebrate. Their ability to call to mind a simpler, more peaceful time makes them ideal for the time of year when we stop and remember the wonder of the first Christmas.</p>
<p>The Christmas carol “Silent Night” captures the miracle of Christmas unlike any other song. However, it didn’t start as a song at all; rather it started as a poem written by Father Joseph Mohr in 1816.</p>
<p><a href="http://applesofgold.com/QDR-3.html"><img class="alignright" src="http://applesofgold.com/Merchant2/jewelry/diamond-rings/QDR-3C.jpg" alt="3/4 Carat Three Stone Princess Cut " width="314" height="317" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>For two years this poem remained unknown, until the author was inspired to set it to music. The church organ was broken, which would prevent many existing Christmas carols from being part of that year’s Christmas Eve service, and Mohr turned to the church organist, Franz Xaver Gruber to help him turn the poem into a song that could be performed even without the organ. Although Gruber had only a few hours before the service, he composed a simple melody and a guitar accompaniment and the two men sang the song together that night at the Church of St. Nicholas in Oberndorf, Austria.</p>
<p>A few weeks later, when renowned organ builder Karl Mauracher came to the church to fix the organ, he heard Gruber play the melody that he had composed. Mauracher took the song to his own village, where two famous groups of singers heard it and added it to their repertoires. Today the words of Mohr’s poem are sung in over 300 languages around the world.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft" src="http://applesofgold.com/Merchant2/vintage-jewelry/HGO-R121WC.jpg" alt="Vintage Filigree Diamond Band in 14K White Gold" width="391" height="261" border="0" /></p>
<p>The sparkle of vintage diamond rings allows them to beautifully capture the miracle described by “Silent Night.” The <a href="http://applesofgold.com/QDR-3.html">3/4 Carat Three Stone Princess Cut &#8220;Floret&#8221; Diamond Ring</a> perfectly meshes vintage beauty with modern sophistication. This stunning piece features three princess-cut diamonds, one 0.30 carat stone and two smaller side stones, and is accented by six additional channel-set diamonds that adorn the lavishly-designed band. A feminine floret and leaf motif is carved into this band on three sides, creating a ring that’s stunning from any angle.</p>
<p>Or, go for a slightly more subtle but equally stunning choice such as the <a href="http://applesofgold.com/HGO-R121W.html">Vintage Filigree Diamond Band in 14K White Gold</a>. This airy ring is as light and sparkling as a snowflake. A round diamond is suspending in an elegant filigree motif, while graceful flowers cascade down each side of the band. This piece only becomes more beautiful when you lean in for a closer look.</p>
<p><img class="alignright" src="http://applesofgold.com/Merchant2/vintage-jewelry/HGO-R128WC.jpg" alt="Antique-Style Diamond Ring in 14K White Gold (0.35 Carat)" width="380" height="275" border="0" /></p>
<p>The 0.35 carat <a href="http://applesofgold.com/HGO-R128W.html">Antique-Style Diamond Ring in 14K White Gold</a> surrounds a round diamond with an intricately-carved Victorian-inspired setting. This light but substantial design is created with swirls and cutouts that elevate this ring to something truly special. If you prefer, this piece is also available as part of a stunning <a href="http://applesofgold.com/HGO-R128WB21.html">bridal jewelry set</a>, accompanied by a coordinating engraved wedding band that curves in perfect harmony with its partner.</p>
<p>These vintage <a href="http://applesofgold.com/Diamond-Jewelry-DJ.html">diamond rings</a> call to mind a simpler time—a time when it was easier to slow down to marvel at the miracle of Christmas. Choose one to celebrate that first Silent Night.</p>
