‘The Bachelor’ Engagement Ring: All the Details!

When jewelry designer Neil Lane landed in Chiang Rai, Thailand, he came bearing six engagement rings to show Bachelor Sean Lowe.

“Sean took it very seriously and looked carefully at each of his choices — including round- and princess-cuts — but once he saw the cushion-cut stone with all the romantic details, he knew this one was perfect,” says Lane, of the 3.15-carat platinum-and-diamond sparkler Lowe slipped on Catherine Giudici’s finger during his teary-eyed proposal on the show finale. “When he made his choice — of the ring, and of which woman he was picking — he was absolutely certain.”

Lowe was eager for the vintage-inspired ring to reflect Giudici’s “style, spirit and fashion sense,” says Lane. “He was really into it and loved that the cushion-cut was soft and romantic, with a vintage vibe that connected the modern and the past. It resonated with him since it combined Catherine’s sensibility as a modern woman with an appreciation for the past, and older things.”

The ring, which a giddy Giudici calls “classic and timeless,” features a center diamond exquisitely set with 164 smaller round diamonds. “Sean was so great to work with — one of the nicest, most sincere guys and a real gentleman,” says the celebrated designer, pictured below with Lowe. “And most importantly, he was confident he had found the love of his life in Catherine. I’m so happy for them!”

I do not like Lindsay. She was immature and all she could say was “amazing” what a recap .. reminds me of the boring britney spears the judge on xfactor and all she could say was amazing. I find Catherine is too good for sean anyhow.

Trista doesn’t have this one

Noo on

I thought the rose gold one would have been great on Catherine

They seem to be a couple well suited for one another; I hope it lasts, but only time will tell. Who cares about the ring–because he didn’t purchase it for her anyway. He could have chosen from any of the Neil Lane rings that were presented to him for his “bride”. To me, the ring would mean more if my groom to be had actually purchased it rather than have it given to him to play up a reality show…..

Same ring, different couple.

to me, they all look the same. Neil Lane designs aren’t really that unique

Janet on

all the designs look the same to me. Neil Lane seems to only make one type of style.

These shows are a joke and a travesty to the sanctity of marriage. I give them 6 months – if they even make it to the altar.

Emily’s ring is (was) different- she had an emerald cut diamond and only one skinny band… just letting you all know who said Catherine’s ring is exactly the same- because its not…

Kim on

I swear they just recycle these rings from the previous failed engagements. They all look alike!
