Neil Lane Engagement Rings

Neil Lane engagement rings are all about Hollywood glamour and style.

When celebs need an engagement ring or wedding band they often end up at Neil Lane's doorstep in Los Angeles.

Luckily for us, Neil Lane now has a bridal collection, available through Kay jewelers, that brings his unmistakable style and flair to the rest of us.

As a celebrated jeweler and jewelry designer based in LA, Neil Lane has long been catering to the rich and famous.

He studied Art and Design in both New York and Paris and collects and sells antique jewelry.

It's more than likely that these period pieces that he's collected over the years are the inspiration behind many of the engagement ring designs and bridal pieces he creates today for both his own private clientele and the Kay Collection.

Neil Lane himself says...

"I have always been fascinated with period jewels and how I could bring that incredible handcrafted detail into my designs."

The result is vintage inspired jewelry with a contemporary point of view. His pieces bridge the gap between a new and modern aesthetic and the richness of the past. His jewelry has been seen in Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and W and he is sometimes referred to as the "King of Bling".

Stars known to have worn Neil Lane engagement rings include, Sandra Bullock, Brooke Shields, Jennifer Hudson, Heidi Klum and the list goes on.

The good news is that today you don't need a celebrity budget to buy a Neil Lane engagement ring. Kay Jewelers now carries the Neil Lane Kay Collection where you can get all the elegance and style of a genuine Neil Lane ring for significantly less. It's an interesting collection of engagement rings, wedding bands and bridal jewelry that's worth taking a look at.

The engagement rings (Neil Lane Bridal) available at Kay's start at a little over $2,000 and run up to just under $10,000. The collection had its debut in July of 2010 at a red carpet event at Drai's in LA with many of Hollywood's "A" list in attendance. Each ring is hand cast and assembled based on a Neil Lane original design specifically for the retail chain.

Although his designs can now be found at Kay's he still has his studio and store in Los Angeles where you can still purchase what he calls "Couture Bridal" which are unbelievable pieces with the most exquisite and expensive diamonds, as well as, other custom pieces and collections.

Neil Lane engagement rings, whether purchased through his bridal collection at Kay or his private LA jewelry studio, are all about style. Each piece shows his love for art and architecture, his passion for historical reference, and his admiration of Hollywood's glamorous past.
