Engagement Rings in Paris

Your Laveran Showroom in Paris 9e, rue Buffault

Laveran's Paris showroom, the birthplace of the Maison, is located at 9, rue Buffault, in the Faubourg-Montmartre neighborhood, in the heart of the 9th arrondissement. Between the Grands Boulevards, the Opéra and the slopes of Montmartre, this is where you choose your engagement ring in Paris, by appointment only, during a private conversation with no obligation.

An appointment lasts about an hour with a diamond expert. You examine the stones under a loupe, compare the shapes – round, oval, cushion, pear, emerald cut, princess, marquise or heart – and the three qualities we offer, H/VS2, F/VS1 and D/VVS1, to see for yourself what sets them apart. You then try on settings in 18k yellow, white or rose gold and in 950 platinum, before talking openly about your budget and, if you wish, a custom creation. More than just a jeweler in Paris, you will find someone who takes the time to explain every choice.

Unable to come in person? The appointment can also take place by video call. Either way, simply book an appointment: an expert will call you back to confirm the time slot.

Why Choose a Lab-Grown Diamond

A lab-grown diamond is a diamond in every sense: pure carbon, a hardness of 10 on the Mohs scale, and the same optical properties as a mined diamond. Only its origin sets it apart, and only specialized laboratory equipment can tell the difference. Every stone we offer is IGI or GIA certified; the certificate is delivered with the piece and its number is laser-inscribed on the stone.

For the same size and quality, it costs significantly less than a mined diamond and requires no mining at all. Choosing a lab-grown diamond in Paris therefore lets you weigh your options differently: a larger carat weight, a higher quality, or platinum rather than gold.

Engagement Rings to Discover at the Paris Showroom

On rue Buffault, you can compare the signature designs of our engagement ring collection, each available in the shape, quality and metal of your choice:

• Montaigne Six-Prong Ring: the classic solitaire, from €880, whose six prongs hold the diamond with finesse.
• Montaigne Oval Diamond Ring: a solitaire with an elongated silhouette that visually lengthens the hand.
• Vendôme Ring: a round diamond set on a pavé band that extends the brilliance of the center stone.
• Odéon Ring: a halo of diamonds that frames the center stone and heightens its presence.
• Opéra Solitaire Ring: a thoroughly Parisian name, to be discovered just a few stops from the Opéra on line 7.
• Étoile Pear Diamond Ring: the pear cut, romantic and distinctive.

For what comes next, our diamond wedding bands start at around €860, such as the Montaigne Round Diamond Wedding Band or the Vendôme Wedding Band: choosing your wedding band in Paris at the same time as the ring lets you make sure they go together. Some designs are available with blue, pink or yellow colored diamonds, and our custom workshop brings an entirely personal design to life.

Proposing in Paris

Once the ring is chosen, all that remains is the setting. Here are four places for a marriage proposal in Paris, two of them in the 9th:

• The Passage Jouffroy and Passage Verdeau: beneath their 19th-century glass roofs, between boulevard Montmartre and rue du Faubourg-Montmartre, a proposal sheltered from prying eyes and from the rain, a few minutes' walk from the showroom.
• The garden of the Musée de la Vie romantique, 16 rue Chaptal: you enter through a courtyard, and the tearoom's greenhouse opens onto a secluded garden at the foot of Pigalle (closed on Mondays).
• The steps of Sacré-Cœur: at the top of the Butte Montmartre, after the 222 steps of the square Louise-Michel or a ride on the funicular, all of Paris spreads out before you.
• The Pont Alexandre III: its ornate lampposts, gilded statues and views over the Seine and the Invalides create a stately backdrop at sunset.

Our advice: come to the showroom first to measure your ring size, or ask for the free ring sizer, sent on request, if you are planning a surprise. As each piece is made to order in two to three weeks, allow for this lead time before your chosen date. The ring is then delivered free of charge, insured and hand-delivered, or collected at the showroom; and should the size need adjusting, resizing is free for life.
