Richard Ogden specialises in antique jewellery and has been welcoming customers to the ring room at his Burlington Arcade boutique for more than 50 years. He recommends looking for an engagement ring with a timeless elegance that will "ideally become an heirloom cherished by the next generation". His boutique is full of such rings, including Art Deco designs set with rubies, emeralds and sapphires - the big three coloured gemstones that are an increasingly popular alternative to diamonds.
