Toi et Moi Engagement Rings: Design a Custom Two-Stone Ring with Diamonds or Gemstones

The Toi et Moi (French for “you and me”) engagement ring is a timeless symbol of two lives coming together. This romantic, two-stone engagement ring style has been worn by royalty and celebrities alike, and it’s easy to see why - it’s striking, symbolic, and endlessly customizable.

At Laura Preshong, we offer our signature Gemma Toi et Moi ring, as well as fully custom two-stone engagement rings crafted by hand in our Boston studio. From diamond and gemstone combinations to unique layouts and bezel-set stones, we help couples create meaningful, modern rings with character and charm.

What Is a Toi et Moi Engagement Ring?

A Toi et Moi (pronounced twah eh mwah) engagement ring features two center stones set side by side, symbolizing the union of two people. French for “you and me,” this style is rooted in romance and history - it’s been worn by everyone from Napoleon’s Josephine to modern icons like Emily Ratajkowski and Ariana Grande:

Toi et Moi rings offer endless opportunity for personalization, from the shapes and types of stones to the layout and setting style. Whether you’re choosing two white diamonds, a mix of colored gemstones, or opting for modern bezel settings, this ring style is perfect for couples looking to tell a personal love story through design.

The Gemma: Our Signature Toi et Moi Design

Our Gemma ring is a clean, balanced, and minimalist take on the classic Toi et Moi engagement ring. It typically features a pair of offset stones, such as a round and a pear or marquise, set on a sleek, tapered band.

Like all of our engagement rings, the Gemma can be customized with:

• Diamond and colored gemstone pairings
  

• Salt and pepper diamonds
  

• Matching or contrasting shapes
  

• Bezel settings or classic prongs
  

It’s the perfect starting point for those who want a thoughtful design with built-in symbolism.

Create a Fully Custom Toi et Moi Ring

Want something completely unique? We regularly create fully custom Toi et Moi rings for clients who want a one-of-a-kind layout or personal stone combination.

Here’s how you can customize your two-stone ring:

• Choose Any Two Stone Shapes: Think round and pear, emerald and oval, cushion and marquise - the combinations are endless.
  

• Mix Stone Types and Colors: Use two white diamonds, or mix a diamond with a sapphire, birthstone, or salt and pepper diamond. We offer lab-grown colored diamonds, natural sapphires, and more.
  

• Opt for Bezel Settings: For a sleek, modern finish (and added durability), choose full or half bezels for one or both stones. Bezels can add contrast or symmetry depending on the design.
  

• Personalize the Layout: Adjust the angle of the stones, orientation, and spacing. We can design something asymmetrical and organic or crisp and balanced—depending on your vision.
  

• Choose Your Metal or Go Bi-Metal: Opt for platinum, 14k yellow, rose, or white gold - or combine metals for a two-tone look.
  

Each ring is engineered for perfect balance and durability, and made to order in our Boston workshop.
