Solitaire Diamond Rings

Timeless. Elegant. Endlessly Romantic.


For over seventy years, Appleby Jewellers has been at the heart of Ireland’s most treasured love stories. Our signature solitaire engagement rings are crafted to honour that tradition — timeless in style, defined by a single, striking diamond.

Whether you’re drawn to a round brilliant cut, an elegant oval, a glamourous marquise, or the clean lines of an emerald cut, every Appleby solitaire ring is designed to showcase the diamond at its most radiant — with nothing to distract from its rare and captivating sparkle.

Appleby Solitaire Settings


From our iconic Appleby J’adore setting to the elegant six-claw Romance design, our solitaire engagement rings marry timeless tradition with refined contemporary details. Each ring is meticulously handcrafted by our master jewellers in Dublin, designed to lift the diamond above the band and into the light — capturing every spark of brilliance.

Our round brilliant solitaires feature a Triple Excellent cut — the highest grade in the industry — while our selection of emerald-cut, cushion, pear, and oval diamonds offers a timeless range of styles, each crafted with precision and passion.

You don’t just see the difference — you feel it.

You'll know it's the one.




An Appleby Diamond Sparkles More

Our leading gemologist, Gerry Appleby, brings over six decades of expertise — and is widely regarded as having one of the most trusted and discerning eyes in Europe.

Each Appleby solitaire begins with an exceptional diamond — carefully selected from the top colour and clarity grades, and chosen not for size alone, but for its fire, beauty, and presence. Fewer than one in every hundred diamonds meets the rigorous standards required to become an Appleby diamond.

This stringent selection process is at the heart of what we do. It’s a tradition that ensures only the most exceptional diamonds bear the Appleby name and are worthy of the sentiment they represent.
