Tallulah Willis Says Engagement Ring Has the Lines of Ancient Greek Amphora

Sometimes the best things in life are worth waiting for. That’s certainly the sentiment of Tallulah Willis, who turned to Instagram on Saturday to gush over her “warm, depthful, ancient” engagement ring, which finally arrived three months after she accepted a marriage proposal and stand-in ring from musician Justin Acee.

The official ring features an antique 4.03-carat “honey champagne” diamond in a chunky gold setting reminiscent of an Ancient Greek vase.

“It reminds me of amphora, the way shoulders are, which is that very beautiful Greek vase, very femme, very beautiful,” the 31-year-old daughter of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis, wrote in an Instagram post. “I love imbuing an item or an object or a piece or a sliver of something with magic, because it’s just so beautiful.”

The old mine-cut diamond, which is secured in a bezel setting, sports a cushiony shape that was most popular during the Georgian and Victorian eras, roughly from the early 18th to the late 19th century.

“Never knew a ring could encapsulate a love so perfectly,” Willis noted. “Warm, depthful, ancient.”

Willis also gave a shoutout to the New York-based designer, Karina Noel, who helped her design the ring — as well as her new fiancé.

“I am blown away thank you @karinanoel – our design come to life is extraordinary – more photos to come I’m currently caught up getting to know her!” she exclaimed, adding, “I choose you everyday my love @justinacee ~~I cannot wait to be your wife.”

On the designer’s Instagram page, Noel reflected on her collaboration with Willis.

“Tallulah look what we created!!” she wrote. “What a special journey working on this ring with you, and seeing the way it reflects your relationship with Justin is just incredible. That antique honey diamond has such a quiet depth to it, like it’s always held a story…we knew it. And that setting is the perfect home for her. Deeply, deeply grateful to be part of it.”

A ring with an ancient vibe was also favored by three-time Grammy winner Dua Lipa. Back in early February, the singer treated her 87 million Instagram followers to a closeup view of an engagement ring from beau Callum Turner. The ring was described as Etruscan- or gypsy-inspired, with a 2-to-2.5-carat round center diamond in a half-bezel setting on a chunky yellow gold band.

A half-bezel setting is a jewelry design where only half of the gemstone is secured by a metal rim, essentially covering the sides of the stone while leaving the top and bottom exposed. This setting allows more light to reach the gem while still providing security with the bezel style.
