Taylor Swift's engagement ring – and what we at Schalins love about it

When Taylor Swift announced her engagement to Travis Kelce on August 26, 2025, the world got a close look at the ring that quickly became the talk of the jewelry world. This is more than just a piece of jewelry – it’s history, craftsmanship and a clear style marker. For us at Schalins, where every detail is carefully considered, there’s plenty to be inspired by.

Which diamond is it?

According to confirmed information from Taylor’s publicist, it is an Old Mine Brilliant cut diamond – an antique cut known for its soft square contour, high crown, open culet and “candlelight” sparkle. The ring is bezel-set in yellow gold, which enhances the warm, vintage-inspired feel and provides practical protection for the stone. Note that some experts describe the stone as an extended cushion (relative to old mine), but the consensus is that the expression is antique and artisanal.

This is how much Taylor Swift's ring is worth

The valuation varies between sources (there are no official specifications). Swedish estimates indicate around 5–10 million kronor, while international experts often place it around $750,000–$1,000,000 depending on carat, color/clarity and antique character. Most estimate the size at around 8–10 carats. The bottom line: the price reflects both the stone's rarity, antique style and the custom-made workmanship.

What makes the ring special?

• Designer & execution: The ring is designed together with Kindred Lubeck at Artifex Fine Jewelry. The details and antique character are central to the expression.
• Cut & Feel: The Old Mine cut (sometimes described as antique/elongated cushion) produces a soft, romantic play of light that brings to mind the hand-cut stones of the 18th–19th centuries.
• Bezel & band: Bezel bezel in yellow gold; several experts also note side details (half moon + small round) that enhance the vintage feel.
