**Editor’s Note:** This piece explores how Callum Turner bypassed traditional luxury houses to commission Dua Lipa’s engagement ring from her longtime favorite label, Eéra. The result—a bold, round-cut diamond on a substantial gold band—mirrors the singer’s independent style.
When picking out Dua Lipa’s engagement ring, Callum Turner skipped the expected heritage maisons and instead enlisted Eéra—the Milan-based fine jewelry label the singer’s had on rotation for years. For a bride who does things her own way, it was a ring that did too.
Turner consulted Lipa’s friends and sister on the piece, and ultimately landed on a natural round-cut diamond set into a substantial 18K yellow gold cigar-style band. The chunky silhouette reflects both a broader shift toward sculptural, personality-driven engagement rings and a design language that has long been central to Eéra. For co-founders Romy Blanga and Chiara Capitani, it was an opportunity to reinterpret one of jewelry’s most traditional categories through the lens of the brand’s industrial aesthetic.
As one of Eéra’s earliest celebrity devotees—a roster that has since grown to include Hailey Bieber, Florence Pugh, and Vittoria Ceretti—Lipa’s ring couldn’t have been more fitting. After all, if an engagement ring is something you’ll wear every day, why shouldn’t it feel like a natural extension of the jewelry you already love?
Blanga and Capitani encourage their customers to mix and match their pieces, a philosophy Lipa has taken to heart by pairing her ring with her go-to stack of Cartier and Bulgari bijoux.
Capitani and Blanga, who previously worked in fashion consulting and public relations, respectively, launched Eéra in 2019 after discovering a simple snap hook at a vintage market in Tokyo. The find became the foundation of the brand’s signature hardware-forward jewelry and a motif that continues to evolve: carabiner-shaped earrings trimmed with diamonds, chain-link and pendant necklaces, and sturdy rings with neon facets.
As for the future, the design duo is excited to continue honing its signature offerings—and perhaps crafting other engagement rings for cool brides-to-be.
