Victoria boasts a more than impressive collection of jewellery. In fact, out of all her 15 rings, she has been gifted some of the highest value precious stones in the world.

Throughout her collection you can find moonstone, diamonds, yellow diamond, pink diamond, sapphire and of course, ruby.

A common theme throughout most of Victoria’s rings is a pavé style band. Pavé is the French word for pavement and therefore means the ring is encrusted with smaller gems (or in Victoria’s case, diamonds) along the band of the ring. Pavé rings are popular because they can add and additional yet subtle flash of shine to your rise. On the other hand, this means that the rings often tend to be more delicate and require maintaining properly. 

A particular ring to note is her 2005 pear cut diamond, which is arguably her biggest ring, coming in at an impressive 17 carats.

Knowing the high carat and clarity throughout all Victoria’s existing rings, we can expect this ring to be no different. 

If we’re predicting Victoria’s next ring, we can almost be certain on a white gold band. Not only will this be her 50th birthday, but the Beckham couple will also be heading towards their 25th wedding anniversary, a huge achievement!

Traditionally, couples can expect to gift each other something Silver to celebrate 25 years of marriage, as Silver symbolizes radiance and brilliance, two key factors in a long-lasting marriage.

However, from David's previous gifts, we can expect his budget to stretch far beyond silver, making white gold a likely option. 

Although Victoria has been seen in a multitude of rare jewels, diamonds appear to be her best friend. Not only are diamonds a timeless choice, but the diamond also represents her birth stone for the month of April. 

Being a fashion designer, Mrs Beckham has a keen eye for trends and her husband knows this. The recent surge in popularity for Toi et Moi dual stone rings is something we can expect Victoria to love.

I’d even go as far as to say that she would enjoy a kite cut, as this seems to be the only major cut, she doesn’t have in her collection! For the second stone, a square is a popular prediction. Not only a former popstar and current fashion designer, but Victoria is also a proud mother. A traditional square shape would be an ode her four children and symbolise their family unity. 

Based on these predictions, we can estimate that the ring would be worth around £100,000.

 

Top tips for keeping your engagement ring clean

Maintaining fine jewellery doesn’t have to be a labour-intensive process however, it is necessary to keep your ring as sparkly as the day you got it. Here’s a few tips of what you need to be doing to protect your engagement ring, to ensure its longevity.

Without doing these steps, you risk not only sporting a lacklustre ring, but permanently damaging your precious piece.

 

Use gentle products only.

Your ring will collect dust and grime over time, and it is inevitably going to look a little dirty. This is nothing to worry about and can easily be sorted out at home.

It can be tempting to reach for household cleaning products that contain bleach, acetone, or baking soda however these chemicals are far too harsh for your ring and could cause major discoloration. Instead, simple dish soap will work just fine! 

Place your ring in a solution of warm water and dish soap, then leave to soak for between 30-60 minutes. Once nicely soaked, use a clean, soft toothbrush to scrub away any visible dirt and oil. When done, leave to air dry for up to 2 hours and you will be left with a sparkling clean ring.


Leave polishing to the professionals

Whilst a DIY ring clean can be done at home, when it comes to polishing, we recommend you leave it to the professionals. 

Every other year is an ample amount to get your ring polished, as over polishing can lead to early decay of the ring and could potentially loosen any precious stones. Particularly rings that feature diamonds, it is important to use a professional who properly understands the makeup of a ring, to keep everything intact.

Professionals will likely use an ultrasonic cleaner to really get into any small crevasses that may have accumulated dirt. Although this method works wonders for most rings, it can be harsh. This means it is not suitable for older, vintage or rings with any small detailing, such as a pavé band.

 

Know when and where to wear it

It is important to know that silver, gold, and precious stones are often very durable and are safe to wear in water. However, there are certain times when your environment may severely impact the longevity of you ring if you aren’t careful.

The beach is an example of this. Between intense sun, sand, sun cream and more, there are many factors that could cause abrasion on your ring, and we would recommend that you keep your ring in a safe space during these times. 

If you’re worried about losing your ring if you take it off, consider dedicating certain areas around your home with ring dishes, so you always have a secure place to temporarily store your ring.

 

Learn how to prong check

For rings with a stone, the prongs may need to be routinely tightened. If prongs are left loose, you run the risk of losing a stone, so it is important to know how to recognise loose or damaged prongs.

To prong check, you can hold the ring closely to your ear and give it a gentle shake. Any rattling noises may indicate loose prongs. As well as this, you may be able to physically feel a loose stone by running your fingers across it.

If you do find loose prongs, we recommend you keep your ring in a safe space until a professional can tighten them for you.
