Chunky, statement jewellery have their time and place, for days when you want to go bold or go home. But for simple pieces that you can wear every day, dainty jewellery are the way to go. They are versatile, timeless and can be used to add little touches of elegance and sophistication to your outfit.
Here, we’re shining the spotlight on understated, delicate rings in particular. Although smaller and less showy than necklaces and bracelets, they inject a subtle glimmer to your fingers and add texture to your ensemble.
Too unassuming for your liking? You can wear a bunch at the same time to make a statement. Everyone needs a few gold stacking rings, end of story.
Scroll on for our favourite 10.

A homegrown label that’s known for its classic designs that come with a unique twist, this ring sports an interesting wave pattern that defers from the regular ring silhouettes. Great for someone who prefers something a little less predictable, we recommend stacking three of them on one finger for a cool effect reminiscent of the Aquarius icon.

Handcrafted from 14-carat gold, this thin band ring from Stone and Strand is as simple and pared down as it gets. Its unpretentious silhouette means you can wear it three ways — alone, stacked or layered with chunkier rings — without it looking OTT.

Whether you choose to wear them individually or in a complete set of five, this Isabel Marant set is both chic and value for money. The tiny balls act as unique accents to the simple gold-tone brass band/cuff ring design. We reckon that these would look good with a feminine white lace dress.

Said to emulate the shape of fragmented petals, this abstract-shaped ring from Sarah & Sebastian comes adorned with a 0.0235-carat trillion-cut diamond that’s unevenly set to play up the rugged and raw feel of the piece. It’s unique and also perfect for someone who likes a dainty piece that comes with a little bling.

Sporting a chain instead of a solid band and a small, sliding ball that allows you to adjust up to size T, this is definitely no ordinary ring. We love that the piece is elevated with the inclusion of 40 set pavé diamonds totalling 0.13 carats. Gift it to a friend or stack a few for a quirky effect.

Add sparkle onto your fingers with this 18-karat gold ‘Thread’ ring that boasts 0.28-carats of brilliant-cut diamonds. Although it symbolises enduring love, there’s no reason why you couldn’t get it for yourself because hey, The Pussycat Dolls were clear: You “don’t need a man to make it happen”.
