Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce announced their engagement via Instagram and shared photos including a close-up of Swift's engagement ring. The ring appears to be roughly 9 carats and an antique old mine brilliant-cut diamond set in a hand-engraved gold frame with claw prongs and a detailed undergallery. Industry experts estimate the piece's value around $1 million. Kindred Lubeck of Artifex Fine Jewelry is reported to have designed the ring. Swift also wore additional luxury jewelry in the photos, including a gold tennis bracelet, a $1,400 Found Rae heart-shaped earring with a T, and a Cartier Santos Demoiselle watch.
Ajay Anand, the CEO and founder of diamond retailer Rare Carat, told Business Insider that the jewelry's value is likely somewhere in the $1 million range. "The ring appears to feature an antique old mine brilliant-cut diamond," Anand said, noting that the style was popular in the 18th and 19th centuries due to its "chunky facets and romantic sparkle." Rolling Stone reported that Kindred Lubeck of Artifex Fine Jewelry designed the piece.
Taylor Swift is arguably more bejeweled than ever. The billionaire musician announced her engagement to NFL star Travis Kelce on Tuesday afternoon, posting a series of photos to Instagram. She captioned the post: "Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married 🧨." The carousel included a close-up shot of Swift's engagement ring: a massive, rounded rectangle diamond framed in gold.
