Abstract

An engagement set includes a wedding band and an engagement ring to which the wedding band is removably coupled. The shank of the wedding band when joined together with the engagement ring may be inclined relative to the shank of the engagement ring to form an “X” configuration and thereby to symbolize a “kiss”. The engagement set may be joined by a locking mechanism formed of a locking feature on the wedding band and a corresponding recess on the inner surface of the front of the engagement ring. The locking feature and the recess may have an emotionally symbolic shape such as a heart shape or an “X”. There may be an inclined groove at an inner surface of the back of the engagement ring to accommodate the shank of the wedding band when the rings are coupled together.
