The site released its 2018 Wedding Report.

Pinterest has published a list of the top three engagement-ring trends for 2018.

Moissanite gems take the No. 1 spot, showing a 294 percent spike in popularity among users of the popular social media site.

Art deco is in second place, with a 173 percent increase in popularity. Oval stones are third, with 125 percent growth.

The Daily Mail quotes Grant Mobley, director at Pluczenik, saying, “The most recent standout diamond shape has certainly been the oval, and it’s predicted to continue to gain popularity through 2018.”

The ranking is part of Pinterest’s 2018 Wedding Report, which covers not only engagement rings but also areas such as style, wedding food and hair and beauty.

According to Pinterest: “You don’t have to spend your life savings on a champagne fountain at your wedding. Instead, people are going back to basics with au naturale makeup and venues, and focusing on making meaningful memories with loved ones.”

Jeweler Falls Off Forbes Billionaire List Amid Fraud Investigation

This Third-Generation Jeweler Was Ready for Retirement. He Called Wilkerson

Retirement is never easy, especially when it means the end to a business that was founded in 1884. But for Laura and Sam Sipe, it was time to put their own needs first. They decided to close J.C. Sipe Jewelers, one of Indianapolis’ most trusted names in fine jewelry, and call Wilkerson. “Laura and I decided the conditions were right,” says Sam. Wilkerson handled every detail in their going-out-of-business sale, from marketing to manning the sales floor. “The main goal was to sell our existing inventory that’s all paid for and turn that into cash for our retirement,” says Sam. “It’s been very, very productive.” Would they recommend Wilkerson to other jewelers who want to enjoy their golden years? Absolutely! “Call Wilkerson,” says Laura. “They can help you achieve your goals so you’ll be able to move into retirement comfortably.”
