Irvine’s Premier Custom Designed Engagement Rings Destination
Discover the Perfect Engagement Ring at Michael John Jewelry – Irvine’s Premier Custom Design Destination
When it comes to choosing the perfect engagement ring, every couple wants something that reflects their love story, personality, and style. At Michael John Jewelry, located in the heart of Irvine, just a short drive from Newport Beach and Laguna Beach, we believe your engagement ring should be as unique as your journey together. That’s why we offer an exceptional selection of diamond engagement rings, from timeless classics to avant-garde designs — and even complete custom creations.
But what truly sets us apart from other jewelers in Southern California is more than our beautifully curated showroom. Unlike most jewelry stores, we also house our own in-house jewelry design center and manufacturing lab, allowing us to bring your dream ring to life — whether you're seeking a rare gemstone, a modern twist, or a one-of-a-kind creation.
Let’s explore some of the most popular engagement ring styles we offer at our Irvine boutique, and how you can find the one that speaks to your heart.
Oval Engagement Rings – Elegance with a Modern Twist
Oval engagement rings are becoming a top choice for brides who want a blend of tradition and trend. The elongated shape offers a slimming effect on the finger while delivering maximum sparkle. At Michael John Jewelry, our oval rings range from solitaire settings to halo styles with pavé diamonds, all customizable to suit your preferences.
Whether you’re in Irvine, Newport Beach, or Laguna Beach, our team will help you explore the many variations of oval cuts — including natural and lab grown diamond engagement rings — to find the perfect fit.
Emerald Cut Engagement Rings – Sophisticated and Striking
If you're drawn to vintage glamour and clean lines, emerald cut engagement rings are a timeless option. Their step-cut facets create a mesmerizing hall-of-mirrors effect, making them ideal for the refined bride-to-be.
Our emerald cut rings at Michael John Jewelry can be set in platinum, yellow gold, or popular rose gold engagement ring settings, and paired with accent stones or kept as sleek solitaires. The best part? You can work with our design experts to craft a bespoke emerald cut ring that’s uniquely yours.
Sapphire Engagement Rings – Bold Color Meets Classic Beauty
For a pop of color and a royal-inspired look, sapphire engagement rings offer a stunning alternative to traditional diamonds. Whether you're drawn to deep blue sapphires or prefer lighter pastel tones, sapphires are a durable and elegant gemstone choice.
We carry both natural and lab-created sapphires, and our custom engagement rings allow you to incorporate sapphires in unique settings — as a center stone or accent stones. Come visit us in Irvine and see how vibrant color can add new life to a traditional ring.
Vintage Engagement Rings – Romance from Another Era
At Michael John Jewelry, we love helping couples find or create vintage engagement rings that echo the charm of past eras — from Edwardian to Art Deco. Our collection features intricate filigree work, milgrain detailing, and antique-inspired cuts like the old mine or rose cut.
Looking for something truly special near Laguna Beach or Newport Beach? Our design team can craft a vintage-style ring using natural (earth-mined) diamonds or lab grown diamonds, giving you both style and substance rooted in tradition.
Custom Engagement Rings – Made for You, by You
Your love story is one-of-a-kind. Shouldn't your ring be, too? At Michael John Jewelry, we specialize in custom engagement rings, designed and created right here in our Irvine studio. Collaborate with our master designers to choose your stone, setting, metal, and every other detail.

Diamond Engagement Rings – Timeless and Dazzling
There’s a reason diamond engagement rings are the classic go-to. Their brilliance, versatility, and symbolism make them the centerpiece of countless love stories. At Michael John Jewelry, we offer a curated selection of natural and lab grown diamond engagement rings, handpicked for quality and ethical sourcing.
From brilliant round cuts to princess, pear, and cushion, we have the diamond that speaks to your heart — and your budget.
Rose Gold Engagement Rings – Romantic and Trendy
Soft, warm, and undeniably romantic, rose gold engagement rings have captured the hearts of modern brides. This blush-toned metal pairs beautifully with white diamonds, sapphires, and even emerald cuts for a fashion-forward yet timeless look.
Our designers at Michael John Jewelry can help you create a rose gold masterpiece that captures your essence — all crafted locally in our Irvine-based jewelry lab.
Tiffany Engagement Rings – Inspired by Iconic Elegance
Tiffany-style settings are known for their classic, elevated look that lets the diamond shine without distraction. Our Tiffany engagement rings channel this timeless elegance while offering the flexibility to customize metal, band style, and stone type.
Prefer an earth-mined diamond for that authentic sparkle, or an environmentally conscious lab grown diamond? We’ve got you covered.
Natural (Earth-Mined) vs. Lab Grown Diamond Engagement Rings
One of the most important decisions today’s couples face is choosing between natural (earth-mined) engagement rings and lab grown diamond engagement rings. At Michael John Jewelry, we believe you should have the choice — and the information — to make the decision that’s right for you.
Our in-house lab allows us to offer top-quality lab grown diamonds with the same brilliance and durability as natural stones, at a more accessible price point. Still leaning toward tradition? Our earth-mined diamonds are ethically sourced and come with full certification and transparency.
No matter your preference, we’ll help you find or create a ring that aligns with your values and style.
