# Hitched Fine Jewelry

> Hitched is a modern fine jewelry brand specializing in custom engagement rings, lab-grown diamond engagement rings, wedding bands, fine jewelry, and heirloom jewelry redesign.

## Engagement Rings

Hitched offers four ways to shop for engagement rings online:

### Signature Engagement Ring Settings
- [Signature Engagement Ring Settings](https://tryhitched.com/collections/signature-engagement-rings): Thirteen engagement ring settings designed in-house and made in 100% recycled 14k gold, 18k gold and platinum. Styles: solitaire, bezel, halo, hidden halo, cathedral, cathedral hidden halo and heirloom bezel. Every style except the heirloom bezel comes in a plain band and a pave diamond band, which is 13 settings in total. Each setting is built for a specific center stone shape (round, oval, cushion, elongated cushion, emerald, radiant, pear, marquise, asscher), so the setting and the stone are chosen together. Settings are sold separately from the center stone; pair one with any stone from the Hitched stone search. Setting prices start at $2,499.
