Toi et moi is a jewelry setting featuring two gemstones set side by side in an open design. The name translates to “you and me” in French, and the stones represent the romantic connection between partners. Its deeper meaning helps explain why it’s such a popular setting for engagement rings. Former First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy and actress Megan Fox were both famously proposed to with diamond and emerald Toi et Moi rings, and many others have embraced the setting choice because of its sentimentality and unique style. Toi et Moi jewelry isn’t limited to engagement rings; top jewelry designers channel this setting into statement rings and sometimes necklaces and bracelets. Here, we round up our favorite Toi et Moi rings for every occasion, including a few experimental pieces inspired by the design. 

The Prettiest Toi et Moi Rings and Beyond

Marina B

In 1976, Marina Bulgari left her family’s legendary high-jewelry company to start her own brand, Marina B (learn more about the maison with our ultimate guide to Bulgari jewelry). Marina B honors her Italian heritage with vibrantly colored gemstones and striking silhouettes, setting her pieces apart with a contemporary aesthetic. For the Moi et Toi ring, the brand swaps the setting’s name to embody its playful approach to jewelry. This ring features a coiled band and a stunning turquoise gem, which allows it to double as a fabulous piece of December birthstone jewelry. It’s a great way to add color to an outfit while maintaining a refined look.

Alexia Connellan

We absolutely adore ruby gemstones, especially those with rare provenances like Burmese rubies. Alexia Connellan, a jewelry designer who pulls inspiration from historical artworks and jewelry, incorporates this important precious gemstone, along with diamonds, into a fabulous Toi et Moi ring. The band has small heart-shaped rubies and diamonds, accentuating the reddish pink color of the center stones. This romantic ring is the perfect luxury gift for her, whether for an anniversary or Mother’s Day.

Reza

New York-based high-jewelry brand Reza’s take on the classic Toi et Moi ring is simple but impactful. This ring has a clean, open band and a half-bezel set pear-shaped spinel and diamond. Similar to a signet ring, this piece can be worn on the pinky finger.

Emily P. Wheeler 

A more abstract version of the Toi et Moi ring is the Emily P. Wheeler Buckle ring. It has an asymmetrical silhouette that transitions from pink to blue, using different colored gemstones for an ombré effect. On one side, there’s a turquoise accent, which is December’s birthstone, that gives it a playful appearance. If you’re traveling to a tropical destination, such as Los Cabos or the Bahamas, this ring is an adorable accessory to wear with beach attire.

Material Good

The Material Good Duo Muse necklace is reminiscent of Toi et Moi rings with a beautiful diamond and aquamarine, March’s birthstone. The gemstones are set in a half bezel, and the chain is snake-style, underscoring its modern aesthetic. You can wear this piece casually with a blouse or as part of elegant attire.

Jemma Wynne

This custom Jemma Wynne ring is incredibly elegant with an Asscher-cut diamond and emerald-cut emerald. Each gemstone is set into a hexagon-shaped bezel, which accentuates its mirror-like appearance caused by its numerous facets. The open silhouette makes this a wonderful statement piece for every day.
